Backed Quotes
I will not undertake to offer an opinion on the capacity of Hindustan to produce cotton. The region is large, and the soil and climate various, the population great and wages low; but I must be permitted to doubt the success of the experiment of driving us out of the market, though backed and patronized by English capital and energy.

Economy Quotes
There are winners and there are losers. And as much as we would like to help the losers, if we do it in the way that directs the limited capital of the society to support the low-productivity parts of the economy, it means that the rest of the economy - our overall standard of living - will not rise as much as it could.
-
Benefits Quotes
Your normal Wall Street big-swinging Richard has enough of a lingering moral compass to at least tell himself that his wizardry benefits somebody or something besides himself. You know, his cleverness makes capital markets more efficient. It provides credit to productive enterprise. Whatever.
-
Bill Quotes
There are many people who think we should have zero tax on capital gains, interest and dividends for everybody, as - the very, very wealthy.

Alliance Quotes

Adventure Quotes
We're in a period when capital spending has slowed to a waltz, corporate profitability is hardly visible, and balance sheets are just inundated with debt ? that's not a comfortable picture. Each day is a new adventure in the market. There's lots of money on the sidelines but no willingness to commit.
-
Business Quotes
Until we experience an economic slowdown, we will not know for sure how much of the extraordinary rise in output per hour in the past five years is attributable to the irreversible way value is created and how much reflects endeavors on the part of the business community to stretch existing capital and labor resources in ways that are not sustainable over the long run,
-
Above Quotes
We're so dependent on foreign capital that, if you could see any weakness in the dollar it could come on Friday with the trade numbers. If we see a sharply above consensus reading for trade, there could be some concern about the sustainability of that trade gap and that could certainly weigh on the dollar.

Cancer Quotes
We're moving in the right direction, ... We need to emphasize not just low costs, but amenities like our riverfront development. We're trying to carve out an economic niche with plant-made pharmaceuticals that will create higher-paying jobs. And we're hoping to increase our intellectual capital with cancer research at the hospital's cancer center.

Apple Quotes
We reiterate our 'buy' rating on Apple and our price target of $80 based on valuation of two times the company's EPS growth rate of 20 percent, reasonable in view of its innovative products and strong product cycles, ownership of technology, strong balance sheet and financial management, increasing return on invested capital and potential for future positive surprises.

Appears Quotes
Yes. Is it a tight squeeze? Indeed, but should we need other monies for contingency purposes, it appears we have another $162,000 the board hasn't spent and another $350,000 in capital improvement funds that would not impact the construction of the eighth elementary school or the Norge or Stonehouse renovations.

Amount Quotes
With this transaction, Berkshire is now clearly an insurance company that will generate excess capital and cash flow that can be invested and, of course, the real synergy here is that Warren Buffett is the master at allocating and using capital and General Re is a company that generates an enormous amount of excess capital, so it's a great fit.
-
Afford Quotes
We're still deciding if we should push for a capital gains cut this year, ... The ironic thing is that we do all these estimates on what kind of impact a cut would have and then the U.S. Treasury says 'Oh, no. We can't afford it.' Well, we cut capital gains a few years ago and now we've got an enormous budget surplus. Much of it was generated by capital gains.
-
Breadth Quotes
We're seeing some breadth in this market with some of the smaller stocks participating. We've had some big gains in some of the tech names. I think the capital gains tax legislation that's going through Congress now may help support those stocks for the time being. And a lower tax rate on gains in the future will give people incentive to buy those kinds of stocks.

Additional Quotes
We are also pleased to confirm that last year's acquisition by Berkshire Hathaway has helped us attain the industry's highest financial rating, allowed us to expand our underwriting appetite to additional practice specialties that meet our underwriting criteria, and provided us with the capital to open the door for even more Texas health care providers who desire the strongest carrier.

Building Quotes
We want the colleges to be able to demonstrate that yes, indeed, they do have local support. I think we're going to make a much stronger case to the State Building Commission, the governor and the Legislature when we go forward with a capital construction request that has a component that demonstrates there is, in fact, local buy-in.

Additional Quotes
The creation of large liquid benchmarks will improve the trading turnover in the secondary market as this is expected to, among others, reduce the bid-offer spreads on bond prices. Participants will be able to get in or out of the benchmark issues more easily, making trading in Philippine bonds comparable to those in other emerging markets. This will be highly attractive to foreign investors in the market and bring additional business opportunities to the local financial community. This effort will complement earlier initiatives in capital market development, including the creation of the Fixed Income Exchange.

Basketball Quotes
This puts us on the youth basketball map. There's all-star games, but this is the all-star game. It's the one everybody knows. There's lots of All-America teams, but when you say McDonald's All American, that's special. That game and those kids, to be playing here in San Diego, we're the basketball capital of the world for three or four days.
