Capital Quotes from:
-
Build Quotes
Low and declining inventory levels naturally lead to increased production to build inventories in anticipation of future demand, but in the face of elevated manufacturing capacity utilization rates, increased capital spending will be required to facilitate a rise in output. Since our last capital spending forecast in December 2005, significant increases in spending for 2006 have been announced, suggesting growth in capital expenditures of about 10 percent this year.
-
Bounce Quotes
Some mid- to small-sized businesses will not bounce back quickly. Small manufacturers, with older equipment, may not necessarily choose to come up with the capital to rebuild. There will be strong construction but I don't think we will see the same thing as we do after other hurricanes.

Additional Quotes
Medical Protective made a commitment to Texas policyholders, legislators and regulators that we would closely monitor the impact of tort reforms passed in 2003. We are pleased that the emerging data continues to suggest a moderating trend in loss costs and that we are, therefore, in a position to reduce our Texas rates again. 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 healthcare providers who desire the strongest carrier.

Amazing Quotes
Obviously, the housing market has benefited them, but they're also doing other things. They're also selling some higher margin products, and you can go in and get the upscale products that you need. This company also has done some amazing changes in the last few years: getting their working capital down relative to sales, getting a better return on their investment.

Abroad Quotes
On the other side of the trade deficit, of course, is the capital surplus. We are buying more goods than we are selling, but, on the other hand, the capital account surplus means that the United States is such an attractive market...that individuals from abroad are investing in the United States...at a record rate.

Buying Quotes
Ideally ... we think that a further step here would be to phase out capital gains if investor are holding for a longer period. For instance, if you were to hold stocks, let's say, for five years, I would like to see the rate lower than 20 percent, and maybe if you hold 10 years, there might be no capital gains rate at all. That will return the public markets to being about buying and holding and funding businesses, which was their purpose, not throwing paper around in a speculative manner.

Brink Quotes
I am leaving Javelin in a good place -- well capitalized with a strong management team and on the brink of commercialization of its first product. Over the past five years, I have taken great pride and enjoyed helping to build Javelin and intend to return to the venture capital community to help entrepreneurs create earlier-stage companies.

Believe Quotes
I believe that turmoil of 1994 scarred the firm in such a way that it believed it needed a steady source of capital, permanent capital, that something like 1994 should never happen again, ... and that the way to keep something like that from ever happening again, one of the ways, was to take permanent capital from public shareholders.

Core Quotes
I always want to keep returning, in my writing and in my thinking, to the fundamental core fact of our society's exploitative structure. It doesn't matter how wonderful the stock market is doing, or whether we entered a new realm with the rising tide of capital lifting all boats. For the vast majority of all people, it's not that wonderful.

Acquire Quotes
Capital is readily available, and private equity investors are looking for investment opportunities. By entering into joint ventures with investors, savvy developers can obtain capital at lower costs to acquire land, optimize the timing of lot acquisitions and shift some of the risk of funding necessary for roads, sewers, utility lines and other infrastructure needed for development.
