With liquidity still strong ordsprog

With liquidity still strong, some valuation headroom remaining in our composite valuation indicator, and growth almost everywhere around the world stable to strong, it is hard to see why equity markets would not rise in the first part of 2006. We expect the positive equity market environment to run through into the first half of next year.

Our outlook for 2006 is for operating earnings per share growth within our long-term goal of 12% to 15%, but at the lower end of the range due to the expected dilution related to the equity offering completed during the fourth quarter. We anticipate core loan growth will continue to be within our targeted range of 10% to 14%. Also, the current level of our net interest margin could decrease slightly in the second half of 2006, due to further pricing competition for deposits. Our outlook assumes a stable economic environment and continued strong credit quality.

The strong rise in the prices of energy and industrial metals is hurting inflation expectations and suggests that key rates will continue to rise for the time being. This will presumably offset the positive effects for the equity market of so-far robust earnings and growth estimates.

I don't think the Fed looks at the equity market and makes decisions off the equity markets, but the equity markets are absolutely a reflection of wealth and consumer confidence. That is what the equity markets mean in relation to other economic scenarios and that is where (the Fed's) interest is.

We do not think that investors have given up on the equity markets and we remain bullish over the next few months, ... the beginnings of an economic tailwind, the probability of needed incremental upward earnings revisions, reasonable valuation and relatively strong degrees of skepticism amongst investors we talk to.

Global equity markets have been mostly strong lately and it appears many local technology companies are positive on their second-quarter growth.

While the market environment remains difficult, we are beginning to see positive signs for our industry, as demonstrated by the improvement in the equity markets, as well as a rise in announced mergers and acquisitions transactions,

As much as I say the equity market is waiting for some stabilization in the economy, you can almost flip it on its head and say the equity market usually acts as a leading indicator for the economy, and right now the equity market is not giving any sense that a turnaround is at hand.

In a research note, Cohen looked favorably on a market landscape that, because of the tech sell-off, narrowed the valuation gap between growth and value stocks.] We conclude that the equity market should be a much friendlier place going forward, especially for those portfolio managers who focus on companies fundamentals rather than momentum strategies, ... Careful selection will be the key to strong relative and absolute performance in 2001, as it has been since March 2000.

Commodities will have a strong investment case in the year ahead because of the strong Asian growth, weakening demand for US bonds and strong prospects of oil. Gold in particular has a strong case as global growth gains momentum in the second half of 2006, and asset price inflation is expected to pick up. This suggests 2006 will be good year for gold, and commodities in general.

Equity valuation has improved since March, ... the most attractive they have been all year.

What's been driving the valuation has been an expectation of really strong applications revenue growth. At this valuation, we were expecting at least 57 percent application revenue growth, but we got only 42 percent.

There are lots of positive developments at the moment, with economic growth continuing to be very strong and liquidity flowing into the country. I expect the strong rally to continue.

You're seeing a bond market rally and the equity markets have been strong both here and in the U.S. so I think that the markets are looking beyond the (rate hikes,)
