The major investment issue ordsprog

The major investment issue that has legs in the aftermath of the hurricanes is energy and its implications for corporate profits,

The fourth quarter is going to be volatile and trying. I don't think the market has fully discounted all the negatives in front of it, including the hurricanes' impact on the economy, higher energy prices on corporate profits, and higher inflation.

We have opportunities to address that issue. The aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in the Gulf Coast have served as a wake-up call. These calamities have brought to the forefront the need for alternative sources of energy as well as a need to use public transportation and a need to drive less by planning to make several stops during a single trip.

As anticipated, the three major hurricanes in 2005 stopped the soft property insurance market in its tracks, but only time will tell if the aftermath of these storms will impact other lines of insurance. Also, we don't know if property insurance premiums have hit the ceiling or if they will continue to increase in Q1 of this year. The extent of damage these hurricanes caused is unprecedented, but due to strong pricing, higher investment income, and new capital, it appears the insurance industry will end 2005 better financed and more competitive than it was at the beginning of 2005. Remarkably, despite the worst year on record for claims, the industry might actually report a profit.

Energy prices have been too high and energy companies have realized significant increases in profits. It's important that the private sector be good corporate citizens and invest in the energy infrastructure and support those who are in need.

The issue here is what happens to corporate profitability. What we've found irritating in a way about the Chinese market is the lack of investment opportunities, to find companies that are isolated from this investment cycle.

U.S. Corporate Profits: Outlook And Credit Implications. Up until now, this has been subdued by strong corporate liquidity positions, but with manufacturing activity expected to rev up (as hinted by the fairly strong ISM manufacturing numbers and orders growth) and margins of slack in the economy set to diminish, strong growth in capital expenditures will be needed. In turn, this should raise external borrowing needs.

They haven't changed (their bias). The weakness in corporate profits is a problem, and investment continues to decline.

Tomorrow is set to be another busy day on the U.K. corporate calendar and this stands to provide some direction, but U.S. economic sentiment in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina looks set to continue to dictate where the major indexes go next.

Consumer optimism climbed higher in December after soaring in November. This followed huge back-to-back declines in the aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita and the associated surge in energy prices.

We saw a big rebound in corporate profits and that's a good signal for continued business investment. That generally leads to hiring, which will help keep consumption going.

The super-sized issue from AT&T reminds us of how . . . investor demand for long-term investment-grade corporate bonds is very strong. Corporate America has more than offset (the) reduction in federal borrowing . . . brought on by the emergence of the federal budget surplus.

Corporate profits are what drive the stock market. On the economic front, we have been seeing a slowdown in some industries like housing. And so that could be a positive but may be, may not be, enough for the Fed. But corporate profits are always what drive a market and why investors buy the stocks of companies.
