Corporate lending has remained relatively healthy because of economic growth. There is an issue about how sustainable consumer borrowing will be, especially if the economy no longer benefits from rising real estate prices, which creates a greater willingness to borrow and spend.
Jim Lyon
He's got good stuff. You can see his confidence is rising. It was good to get him off the mound because he was rolling and we couldn't do much against him.
Russ Adams
We have to make the system solvent going forward. We have to make it a pay as you go system. We can't afford the rapid rising costs.
Patrick Mchenry
Statistics have revealed that the country is not able to cope with the rising number of workers employed in government jobs.
Shaikh Ahmed
These people are just devastated because they have family members that are still trapped. The water was still rising and they're worried about those they know were there.
Nedra Turney
We've all heard the stories about people cutting their pills in half, choosing between paying for drugs and paying for food, or forgoing the medications altogether. These folks shouldn't be faced with these choices at all. It's time that Congress help high-risk pools, consumers, employers and state legislatures control the rising cost of healthcare.
Mark Udall
Typically stocks don't do well in the face of rising interest rates so I don't think anyone is going to get rich.
Louis Holland
He had this concept in the '50s, and eventually it will come to pass, especially with the rising cost of health care and property taxes.
Tony Amabile
One of the remarkable things about transports over the last couple of years is how much they ignored the rising price of fuel.
Howard Simons
I have a horror of not rising above mediocrity.
Robert Baldwin
Even before the hurricane hit, rising energy prices were having a dampening effect on the economy.
Nariman Behravesh
The ambitious climbs up high and perilous stairs, and never cares how to come down; the desire of rising hath swallowed up his fear of a fall.
Thomas Adams
Marketers increasingly looking for the efficiencies of online campaigns that are integrated with their off-line campaigns. Agencies that can devise and manage integrated campaigns stand to gain more from rising ad budgets..
David Schatsky
The rising mortgage rates have pushed us to a new record home-sales level, but once the fence sitters are all down, things could change.
Joel Naroff
We understand even though the price of technology is coming down and incomes are rising, there are lots of non-economic obstacles to the adoption of our technology.
Dick Lampman
More large-scale projects and infrastructure construction following the 11th Five-Year Plan contributed to the rising loans. Besides, Chinese banks, which are eager to meet their business targets for this year, are also giving out more loans.
Wang Yuanhong
[But sooner or later, in a hard-bitten capital consumed in scandal, war and competition with rising powers like China, might the royal family ever be considered irrelevant and thus dropped from the dinner list?] That could happen, ... But I hope not in my lifetime. I was born dreaming of monarchies. I want to die that way.
Letitia Baldrige
Despite the strong domestic demand, high oil prices and rising food prices, inflation remains relatively benign at both producer and consumer levels.
Dennis Dykes
If prices are rising in response to a pickup in global demand, that's a good sign for the economy. Though it does impart a drag on the economy, you don't feel it as much.
Gerald Cohen
It's an industry with strong growth. We thought that rising raw-material costs would reduce corporate investment in technology, but that didn't happen. Growth and investment are there.
Jacques Porta
A leopard sprawled in the crook of an acacia tree, rising now and then to bite on the remains of a gazelle he had tucked away in a nearby branch, as one would get up from a couch to find some inviting edible in the refrigerator.
Horace Sutton
Institutions appear to be allocating to emerging market equity funds after market corrections, which is a good indication that strong economic fundamentals and rising commodity prices continue to be a powerful attraction.
Brad Durham
The incomes of working families simply have not kept pace with rising housing prices. And this is despite low interest rates and new mortgage products designed to make homes more affordable.
Jeffrey Lubell
You'll find tremendous enthusiasm among the foreign community for Vietnam as the next rising star.
Jonathan Pincus
We'll see some companies taking the pinch from rising costs such as fuel. Some industries will be reporting lackluster earnings because of this.
Pablo Garcia
Sales fell last month compared with December 2004's record-setting pace, prompted by consumers' concerns about rising interest rates.
Vince Malta
Acceleration in U.S. growth and rising energy costs will likely translate into higher long-term [interest] rates.
Amy Crews Cutts
Doubtful because of the difficult environment caused by rising energy prices.
Jose Vistan
This report does confirm and reinforce a lot of things that we know have been happening. One is that with insurance premiums continually going up at a rapid rate and coverage eroding, we're finding that even moderate- and middle-income families are starting to find insurance unaffordable, with the result that the number of uninsured in those groups is rising.
Carol Pryor
Inflows to international equity funds in 2005 exceeded those to U.S. equity funds. Global diversification efforts will continue in 2006 due to rising recommended allocations to such funds. Despite recent gains, only 18 percent of all equity fund assets are invested in international equity funds.
Avi Nachmany
They did a very good job rising to the occasion and met some challenges set forth. Anytime you rush for 338 yards, you're doing something right.
Bob Connelly
Good earnings are the main support for European markets. On the other hand, Europe will not be spared the effect of rising interest rates in the U.S.
Jean Borjeix
We have to be realistic and recognize that we don't have as many people traveling to the city this year because of the weather and because of rising gas prices.
Tony Mason
At least some in the purchaser community, who have been paying 20 percent and 25 percent increases in their health insurance premiums, will take notice of this rising tide.
Marc P. Volavka
Most small streams and creeks will be close to bank full and anybody living near small streams and creeks should be especially watchful for rising waters.
Kevin Durfee
We've been inundated with complaints. This company is engaged in the worst kind of consumer fraud, preying on people's fears of rising natural gas prices and resorting to deception in order to boost sales.
David Kolata
With the rising costs of second homes, fractional ownership is really an affordable alternative.
Kevin Mays
The increase is due to the cost of living and the rising standard of living. It was expected.
Dave Kelly
With a weakening hedging profile, fuel costs will continue rising, and a slowing pace of saving on other costs will likely keep a lid on expectations for profitability.
Morgan Stanley
Bubble conditions may not be present yet but are approaching such and thus require close monitoring going forward. To allay this concern, housing price increases will need to start to moderate soon from recent sharp increases. Our expectation is that this should occur, since rising mortgage rates should slow the growth in housing prices to a rate below gains in income.
Paul Ferley
Both countries enjoy a common vision of a rising Asia and there is definite road map ahead.
Rajiv Sikri
Rising oil prices have been a major concern and there are some optimists out there who say earnings growth will be able to weather the current prices.
Takashi Miyazaki
What we're looking at right now (with rising insurance costs) has upset the apple cart, and they're putting their nose to the grindstone and taking on some financial responsibility they haven't had to do in the past.
Ben Carlson
I think, with inflation still rising, the central bank will have to increase the rate again.
Fauzi Ichsan
Ask a few questions. Just because it's got a good name and seems to be rising all the time doesn't mean that fundamentals like making a profit and understanding what the product is suddenly don't apply.
Angela Knight
The public was looking for a year-end rally, but the smart money had their bets on the downside. Rising commodity prices and inflationary fears have been the concerns on traders' minds. The recent downtrend in stock index futures does not bode well for the first quarter.
Joseph Luizzi
Surging delivery prices of our steel products helped us more than offset the adverse impact of rising procurement costs.
Nobuyoshi Fujiwara
Consumers have a lot of payments they have to make and a significant number of those are rising.
Bob Allsbrook
It's divergent because we have rapidly rising interest rates and higher tax rates in the same year.
Thomas Summer
Yields are going to be rising in general and there's going to an unwinding of the flattening.
John Richards
Whilst global fares are rising across the board there are significant variations by region and even the countries within those regions.
Matthew Davis
Many companies may be hesitant to increase employee compensation because of other expenses impacting the business, such as rising health-care and energy costs. But an overly cautious approach can be detrimental, particularly as the competition for top candidates intensifies.
Max Messmer
Internet security threats are rising at an alarming pace, and while consumers are increasingly aware of the risks, to date they have very little ammunition to combat and defend against these threats that are easy to use and cost effective.
Melih Abdulhayoglu
I think Americans will begin to see a rejuvenated Dan Quayle with great campaign skills, ... George Bush has done a good job of building interest, but now he has the tough job of rising to those expectations.
David Mcintosh
But if this continues (fuel prices keep rising), you might start to see that effect.
Anthony Curtis
We continue to be pleased with our asset/liability management performance which, in a challenging interest rate environment, again produced an increase in our net interest margin for the first quarter of 2006. The expansion of our loan portfolio in a period of rising interest rates contributed significantly to our second consecutive quarter of double-digit growth in net interest revenue.
Aubrey Patterson
Let others hail the rising sun:I bow to that whose course is run.
David Garrick
While it is a good thing that Apple is taking steps to protect its margins, we believe that Apple did this very reluctantly, as rising prices are a rarity in the PC industry.
Daniel Kunstler
Gold is rising too fast, but as long as silver keeps going, it's hard to say when it will come down.
Ronald Leung
The possibility of rising interest rates worries investors. For many companies there is a direct effect on their earnings and stocks can also become less attractive to bonds.
Felix Lanters
In reality, we've had more spending, more bureaucracy, more waste and higher costs but without necessary reform nor rising productivity.
Andrew Lansley
Given rising public concerns over identity theft and cyber-fraud, we think adding a clear and simple guarantee will contribute to even greater peace of mind for our clients.
Charles Schwab Corp
The smoke was rising to the top deck as the passengers began to come down the stairs.
Andrew Stuart
We expect the full-year 2005 total to come in at 815 million units, up from 680 million in 2004 and rising to 913 million in 2006.
Neil Mawston
Japan's overall consumer spending is pretty firm as a trend because wages are rising.
Taro Saito
There will be rising pressure for tax cuts.
Richard Gibbs
Sound economic fundamentals coupled with a number of positive factors have partially offset the psychological impact of rising interest rates in Hong Kong.
Li Ka shing
With export demand now recovering following the completion of IT inventory adjustments in 2005 and domestic demand expanding solidly, production is likely to continue its rising trend in the near-term, even if there are some monthly fluctuations.
Taro Saito
Concerns about inflation are well tempered by concerns about how quickly economic growth will be undermined by rising rates against a background of continued high energy prices. When the evidence of that appears in the numbers, the bond market's low long-end yields will look justified.
Louise Purtle
Given all the leverage that the household sector has built up, their confidence in rising home equity has been an important part of their willingness to take on all that (mortgage) debt.
Avery Shenfeld
CARMELITE, n. A mendicant friar of the order of Mount Carmel. As Death was a-rising out one day, Across Mount Camel he took his way, Where he met a mendicant monk, Some three or four quarters drunk, With a holy leer and a pious grin, Ragged and fat and as saucy as sin, Who held out his hands and cried: 'Give, give in Charity's name, I pray. Give.
Ambrose Bierce
We gave them the benefit of the doubt when it came to Katrina, but this marketplace cannot see rising rates in the face of another natural disaster.
Michael Franzese
Plus, you'll have higher metal exports because of rising metal prices around the world, driven by Chinese growth ... and by the reconstruction of (typhoon affected) areas in the US.
Dennis Arroyo
We are on a joy ride but we have got to be very careful. We have got benign inflation, but we have also got rising private spending and a growing current account deficit.
Mandla Maleka
Rising long-term rates tend to benefit banks by allowing them to increase yields on securities portfolio investments.
Piper Jaffray
Retail sales in the metropolitan area are rising faster than the rest of the state.
Rick Harper
Dwindling 2005 inventory levels and rising gas prices have caused a significant drop in full-size SUV and pickup sales.
Bob Schnorbus
Every year tuition is reviewed and if tuition goes up, it is usually due to rising costs and general raises due to inflation.
Cathy Andreen
The Labor Department said that core inflation is rising faster than your paycheck. Through the first three months of this year overall inflation is up by 4.3%, last year the rate was 3.4%. Energy prices are up by 21.8% compared with 17.1% last year; core inflation, excluding food and energy, is up by 2.8% and March was the largest increase in all categories.
Sonja Rudd
With this agreement, we will continue expanding the quality of our entertainment offerings and meet the constantly rising expectations of consumers when it comes to movies and video games.
Cliff Plumer
Spending is rising and the deficit is rising, the question is will they have to raise taxes further?
London School
We are excited about Gods & Heroes: Rome Rising and about our relationship with the talented people at Perpetual. Our relationship with Perpetual Entertainment is an important element of the overall business strategy of Platform Publishing.
John Needham
Really, everything you can point to is showing that you have inflation in check. Inflation is less of a concern, rising interest rates are less of a concern and I think sentiment in the market has turned around.
Gregg Hymowitz
The bright spot right now is the commodity stocks given the rising raw material prices.
Soichiro Monji
The markets tell us there is no risk of rising inflation. After January, everybody is a bit unsure about future steps from the Fed.
Michael Rottmann
I was looking forward to competing against her for years to come. She really was a rising star.
Bill Gibbons
Not only is there not any jealousy, there is a lot of cheering and 'Go, girl, go,' ... It's a rising tide that lifts all boats.
Carolyn Bivens
Home prices are moderating, inventories are rising and affordability is heading south. The market will slow down even more by mid-year. There's a chance we will accumulate our holdings.
Akira Takei
If you look at how oil prices are rising and greenhouse gas emission targets, then only agriculture can really solve the energy crisis.
Alain Jeanroy
Rising energy costs not only threaten our economy and our state's competitiveness but also greatly impact the pockets of Rhode Islanders, especially those on fixed incomes. Everyone is feeling the pinch. It?s imperative that we take action now to bring costs down.
Gov. Donald Carcieri
I thought if they're going to be making money maybe I should buy some shares to help offset their rising rates. But I'd have to own thousands of shares before I could make up from their dividend payments all the money I'm now having to pay in higher heating bills.
Todd Young
The risk of protectionist pressures is rising. If there was a trade war, over the medium term both would lose.
Rob Subbaraman
These rising prices impact those that are forced to decide between heating their homes, buying prescriptions and skipping a meal.
Mark Wolfe
But, equally, the impetus provided to the economy by rising commodity prices has passed, particularly with New Zealand's export commodities unable to keep pace with surging oil prices.
John Mcdermott
Peugeot, which used to be lukewarm in China, is gearing up now. Peugeot may record faster sales growth as its unique exterior designs are becoming more acceptable to Chinese consumers along with rising car penetration rate.
Yale Zhang
It's normal for a new prime minister to enjoy rising popularity in the first months. The difficulties run very deep. The context is profoundly depressed.
Emmanuel Ferry
We were expecting a kind of balancing out between rising business sentiment and consumer confidence, which we thought would slip, but in fact we have improved on both fronts.
Emmanuel Ferry
The leading indicators are rising. This is backed by credit data which show acceleration of loans to the private sector.
Eric Chaney
With zealous step he climbs the upland lawn, And bows in homage to the rising dawn; Imbibes with eagle eye the golden ray, And watches, as it moves, the orb of day.
Erasmus Darwin
Some companies have given disappointing results. Their shares suffer in an environment with risks, including high oil prices and rising interest rates.
Edwin Slaghekke
Ah, Moon of my Delight who know'st no wane, / The Moon of Heav'n is rising once again: / How oft hereafter rising shall she look;/ Through this same Garden after me - in vain!
Edward Fitzgerald
Everybody is struggling with rising health-care costs, whether it's Sikorsky Aircraft or any other company in the country. We're simply not immune to that. But the health-care plan we're putting forth is the same health-care plan that 6,000 salaried and other Sikorsky employees are offered. It's a good health-care plan.
Ed Steadham
Everybody's wrestling with rising health care costs and so are we. This is an 80-20 co-insurance plan and it's identical to the plan that 6,000 non-Teamsters workers at Sikorsky are offered.
Ed Steadham
The strong car sales was propelled by flourishing demand for low-emission cars as a result of the government's removal of limitations on them and rising fuel prices.
Zhu Yiping
The major reason for China's rising sex ratio is the entrenched concept of 'boys are better than girls'.
