The market value of year-end cash flow was 9.1, to the bottom of the 9.5 year 2009 and the high 17.1 of 1993 (the start of my data series for this note); the historical annual average is 11.8, the low is 7.4 in 1994.

Registration of cash flow allows account to record cash and reinforces that big - cap companies choose not to spend, compared to not being able to step. And when it is combined with a low interest rate, improves the flow of cash awards to award reduced, making M & A more attractive. Thus, the question remains - when will spend big - caps.

Specifically, we need to examine not only the value of sales, but commands outstanding. It is however more jobs that we need and that means more production, and there was none of the credits that will encourage companies to build more products, unless he believes that it will sell more products. To do this, businesses need to believe. Believe in the process, believe in the economy, believe in the fairness and believe in the future. I don't know about big - caps, but for me, last week demonstration of DC "uniting" did not do so.
