As always, the outlook statement, however, is conservative.

Thijs Berkelder

Investor confidence about profits at exporters is getting much stronger for the coming fiscal year. The dollar's advance is a major support for the bullish outlook.

Hideo Arimura

Our outlook for the future reflects the continuing rapid subscriber growth and the increasing impact of the cost advantages and other financial benefits that flow from our market leadership.

Reed Hastings

We see it (the dividend hike) as an indication of our strong outlook for the business in the years ahead, and an indication that we see a strong performance in earnings and cash flow not just in this period.

Chip Goodyear

Investors will be disappointed by the lowered profit outlook and the extended time to complete the transaction.

John Inch

I've got a whole new outlook. It's changed our lives.

Terry Walker

But it is a trivial exercise unless he changes his outlook.

Tushar Gandhi

Life... It tends to respond to our outlook, to shape itself to meet our expectations.

Richard M. Devos

Earnings have been much better than we expected, so I'm guessing the Nasdaq situation is purely a result of Dell cutting its outlook going forward.

Scott Wren

We believe that the improved order outlook suggests that the long-awaited acceleration in spending for 3G infrastructure build-outs in U.S. and China is upon us in 2006.

Gurinder Kalra

The outlook for 2006 is shakier, if the economy falters.

Stacy Palmer

Jet fuel is the most critical issue for Cathay. The outlook depends on oil prices.

Pauline Dan

Interest-rate differentials are beneficial for the dollar. Greenspan said rates are going to continue to go up and the economic outlook is favorable.

Richard Yetsenga

Earnings are in good shape, but the outlook is cloudy.

Juergen Lukasser

The outlook for Georgia, I'm pleased to say, is good.

George Benson

The outlook for Asia-Pacific's aviation industry in 2006 remains fairly positive, although the burden of high oil prices on the global economy remains a concern.

Andrew Herdman

The outlook for the U.S. automotive industry remains favorable -- consumer confidence continues to be high while unemployment and inflation remain low.

Robert Eaton

Manufacturing is growing but the pace of growth has decelerated. The outlook for manufacturing production in 2006 is for moderate growth.

Daniel Meckstroth

The market got ambitious in what they were expecting from the Fed. The fact that the statement mentioned energy costs having some impact on consumer spending led some to be a bit cautious on the future growth outlook.

Jeremy Stretch

It comes down to rate fears. The Fed is going to have to get pretty aggressive. We're quite worried about the interest rate outlook.

Terrence Gabriel

Yields are high enough to attract some buyers. Yields are probably near their highs for the next two or three months and already reflect the outlook for a gradual economic recovery.

Akihiko Inoue

The company has provided no outlook statement, so it is very difficult to form a view until we see that independent report.

Rickey Ward

He consistently misrepresented and misreported the situation. We asked him to provide a more balanced outlook on Uganda, but he didn't listen to us.

Robert Kabushenga

The dissenting votes are evidence that policy makers' outlook on inflation is improving. Why not start to bet on a 100 basis- point cut for next month?

Boris Segura

[Henley said his family has tempered his outlook.] I think there's more of a balance in the music, ... The anger and the social commentary is tempered by the happiness and the contentment that I find.

Don Henley

The commentary was a lot more optimistic than I expected it to be given the high oil prices. The outlook was also a little more optimistic than I would have expected.

Helane Becker

We've got all these worries over Argentina and then this political outlook.

Luiz Marcos Prudencio

As the European Central Bank is turning more hawkish on its rate outlook, capital inflows into euro-denominated assets are expected to grow stronger.

Ryohei Muramatsu

If the company expects the outlook to change in any material way, it will, in accordance with its continuous disclosure obligations, inform the market.

Virgin Blue

The outlook in the UK is promising, particularly if there is an uplift in the housing market.

Ben Gunn

We're seeing a general slowdown in earnings growth. That makes me more cautious on the outlook for stocks this year.

Riccardo Marzi

Investors are worried about the outlook for commodity prices as the drops were sudden and large.

Takeshi Yamaguchi

Our take is really cautious optimism, the business is really building momentum. We're still encouraged by the U.S. revenue outlook.

Donald Blair

Surpassing the 200,000-unit sales mark is a huge milestone for Acura. The outlook for 2006 looks even brighter as we kick off Acura's 20th anniversary.

Dick Colliver

Citigroup looks likely to continue to benefit from the benign interest rate outlook, global economic expansion and the markets liquidity premium.

Sean Ryan

I could see how that helped her energy. It brought home the fact that it doesn't have to be anything high-tech. Just taking a walk every day can help with your health and your outlook.

Ken Bechtel

When we don't have information, we go to the simplest outlook, to black and white. But then we have to lie to ourselves. Black is never as black as you're painting it and white is never as white.

Patricia Sun

Honestly it's the kids that made us successful. They had a good outlook, and we made it fun.

Dick Martin

What we're seeing right now is a dangerous combination of higher costs, lower confidence and a still shaky employment outlook.

Jennifer Openshaw

The market is entering a cyclical downturn as net additions slow. Net adds are a key indicator of growth in the mobile infrastructure market. 2006 outlook looks challenging.

Richard Windsor

The central bank is very likely to send a stronger message that rates are going up in the near future, because the economic outlook is getting brighter. This will put downward pressure on the bond market.

Kornelius Purps

It's good to see Intel lifting their revenue outlook. You need technology to fall into place, and in technology, the semiconductors are the engine.

Gary Wolfer

It's a great picture, it reduces unit labor cost growth, which improves the inflation outlook. Awesome.

Brian Morris

Europe needs a stable, pro-competitive economic outlook, coupled with a willingness to be innovative at the micro level and consider measures which will give industry more flexibility.

Arun Sarin

Snow is going to help the precipitation for southern Iowa since they've been going through a bit of a drought. That's really going to help farmers, crops and the spring outlook.

Steve Teachout

The yield curve is reflecting too pessimistic an outlook on the economy. The market will just have to be convinced otherwise.

Ted Wieseman

The company reached its own forecasts for the first quarter 2006 and confirmed its outlook for the second quarter.

Julius Baer

The recovery is still being held back by the weaker consumer outlook.

John Butler

They (Vanguard) have national experience, but they also have a regional outlook on how to do things.

Michael Mitchell

There are lots of small bass now, which is expected. And (protective) habitat is good, so the outlook is good.

John Findeisen

To be honest, the outlook is tenuous -- we're still coming out with an initial slate, but we may be a week or two later; we just don't know.

Byron Sanders

When you use Microsoft Outlook from the Indianapolis or Chicago office, there's no difference in performance compared to Dearborn.

Robert Bell

GE's near-term and long-term outlook now appears the best it has been in almost a decade.

Nicholas Heymann

We still believe the outlook is very bright.

Douglas M. Arthur

The outlook generally improved for the sector in the last quarter.

Victor Pereira

It's one of the worst forms you can have. There's not always a good outlook of this.

Lisa Stanford

Longer-term outlook for the Fed and should keep the long bond on the soft side.

Gemma Wright

I don't necessarily think the outlook for gaming is inhibited by the TV network, and both can be run quite successfully together.

Craig Shepherd

If you save just 2% more and retire at 67 instead of 65, it dramatically improves your retirement outlook.

Lori Lucas

The hiring outlook continues to bode well for job seekers and for this springs' new crop of college graduates.

Steve Pogorzelski

The outlook for the group is very positive.

Paul Little

The industry news remains dire and the brief outlook given here for 2007 is worse than we had hoped.

Christian Maher

We had a great time. It gave us a positive outlook on life. We have more confidence now and we are incorporating exercise into our everyday living.

Lael Dandan

The current valuation largely reflects the company's strong fundamental outlook.

Eugene Nowak

The euro is becoming firmer, supported by a better economic outlook and expectations of further interest-rate increases by the ECB.

Etsuko Yamashita

We expect this strong outlook to be reiterated during second-quarter conference calls. We expect companies to discuss a very strong outlook for second-half of 2000 and 2001.

Erika Klauer

(The outlook) is fantastic. After this, we know that placing at states is a goal that's within reach.

Eric Swensen

The fourth quarter was a good quarter. We are optimistic given that the outlook for global economic growth is good.

Emmanuel Soupre

We are optimistic about our business outlook and our competitiveness in 2006 and expect this to be a year of continuing strong growth in demand in our target markets as well as a competitive landscape that is characteristic of rapidly growing consumer mass–markets.

Eli Harari

Albertson's fundamental outlook is poor. The company has a long road ahead of it as a going concern. We believe the board may look to replace management.

Edward Kelly

With these actions, we are attempting to achieve channel inventories that support ODM by the end of the second quarter. Our outlook for the second quarter is cautious as we continue to assess the North American commercial market environment.

Eckhard Pfeiffer

There is now a lot more confidence in the European economy. We've had exports expanding for a while, but now we have an expansion in the domestic economy which is promising for the outlook.

Ed Teather

The job market is firm, the outlook for hiring remains firm and hourly wages will pick up. Wages will grow enough to keep consumer spending up.
