Energy is certainly the driver of growth in the second quarter, with the sector expected to see year-over-year growth of 41 percent.
John Butters
The market was largely supported by the property sector as interest rate worries eased after the release of the US Fed minutes.
Castor Pang
It is not yet time to get carried away, but BT's current resilience should bring a little relief to a sector that has been reeling from a string of negative announcements.
Morten Singleton
Industrial output was way ahead of expectations on the back of a strong recovery in manufacturing sector output.
Shuchita Mehta
All departments need to budget funds in this line item, and I can assure you, we will be looking more closely than ever at what is actually in there. If an auditor is looking for a finding, this is the first place he or she goes. There's also the public perception that needs to be considered. What is appropriate in the private sector isn't necessarily an allowable expenditure in the public sector.
Wilbur Berry
With private-sector credit extension running well ahead of expectation, the consumer is clearly still being supported by high leverage.
Nazmeera Moola
We also expect more spending on search advertising. On top of these broader economic sectors, we expect the Internet companies, in particular e-commerce players, will increase their spending noticeably. These trends together will bring more maturity to the online advertising sector in China.
Safa Rashtchy
The technology sector continues to weigh down on the market, and you have that spillover effect from the U.S., which is facing the same kind of concerns -- slowing economy, the revisions of earnings that have been continually dropping.
Todd Kapala
The revenue miss was split evenly between weak demand in the public sector, primarily in U.S. federal buying, and Dell being aggressive with prices in the consumer sector. The latter is easily fixed. (But) Dell doesn't appear to have confidence federal demand will improve in the current quarter.
Cindy Shaw
Considering the current economic environment and tightening of capital within the telecom sector, we are projecting growth in revenues and earnings per share from operations in 2001 over 2000 of 30 percent.
Frank Dunn
Although investors have basically had their fill of energy stocks, the fundamentals still point to a very strong sector, and it's becoming increasingly difficult to ignore.
David Menlow
Everybody in the galaxy started to figure out by February that the first quarter would be extremely strong across the industrial sector.
Brian Langenberg
Why was it so high last year? Because of the farm sector. That is a very volatile sector.
David Lenze
Thus the ministry needs to give prompt, concise information to the public on the public health sector, so as to eliminate doubts and misunderstandings and kill rumors as well.
Mao Qun'an
It will revolutionize the approach and the underwriting of satellite risks. This is not about offering cheap insurance. It is about rewarding the best companies in the business with premiums, which reflect the risk. It brings accuracy and market leading technology and information to a sector which requires it.
Jeffrey Wright
It's hard to be enthusiastic about the consumer goods sector in Europe, which is being squeezed by global competition and flagging consumer demand.
Anais Faraj
I think the energy sector is in the process of a long-term correction. But, within that, we will get these good days, which is where we are today.
Douglas Davis
This was a pretty strong month for the gaming industry and the sector has closed out pretty strong. There has been a lot of positive commentary coming out about Red Rock and the stock has certainly been acting positively. But there has also been a lot of positive news across the board.
Brian Mcgill
Implementation of the project will lead to the elimination of the export assessment tax for handicraft products, leading to a major expansion of handicraft exports and an amelioration of incomes for the poor involved in this sector.
Christina Wood
Our party's position is clear. We are opposed to FDI in retail sector.
Sitaram Yechury
These two sector leading companies will play an important role in the future of Australia's energy industry.
Paul Anthony
Microsoft and Intel are the bellwethers of the technology sector. These are the companies that are really on the pulse of innovation.
Jay Ferrara
The other online travel stocks are trading at a much deeper discount. That's why you're getting a lift in the sector.
Ashish Thadhani
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
If we want to see a reversal, every sector of society and every minority group has to get up and say enough.
Ruth Klein
One could argue that every sub-sector has its day. Today it was more of a sobering up morning.
Peter Kysel
The outlook generally improved for the sector in the last quarter.
Victor Pereira
We are not relying on one sector.
Ross Gittell
Market confidence towards savings products seems to have returned. As a result, the life insurance sector is getting back on track after a couple of tough years.
Colin Morton
Gov. Bush wants to strengthen Medicare by offering choice in the form of more private sector alternatives for the elderly.
Mindy Tucker
We would like to be as conservative as possible in terms of the revenue side in the next budget and have a target of about 0.5 percentage of GDP (gross domestic product) as public-sector deficit for the year 2001.
Luis Ernesto Derbez
You can tell that the small-cap sector is still cheap relative to large caps. Some of it is because they haven't done as well this year, but also when you look at how they're priced relative to the earnings growth people expect them to produce, they're still very attractive.
Claudia Mott
We are on course, ... Although development sector costs are still increasing because of new projects, we remain highly profitable.
Wendelin Wiedeking
The economy is firing on all cylinders. Construction is very strong. Home price appreciation is very strong. The commercial real estate sector is very strong. Utah ? right now, its performance is about as good as at any time, ever.
Jeff Thredgold
There's activity in every sector, from financial services to chemicals to telecommunications to health care. I can't remember another M&A up-cycle where every sector has been busy.
Rob Kindler
The 'private sector' of the economy is, in fact, the voluntary sector; and the 'public sector' is, in fact, the coercive sector.
Henry Hazlitt
The SHIP Member Survey shows that 2006 is likely to be even better for consumers with greater flexibility, lower costs and continued product innovation. With home reversions coming under FSA regulation as well as lifetime mortgages helping to bolster confidence in the sector the future looks bright for equity release.
Jon King
Interest rates are just part of the costs in the real sector. With inflation starting to ease, we expect that these costs can be reduced.
Anggito Abimanyu
It's hard to find any sector that is hanging in there.
Mark Lackey
It's time to give the [Department of Homeland Security] the necessary regulatory authority that will ensure the entire chemical sector -- a critical part of our national infrastructure -- is adequately protected.
Jack Gerard
The scope for consolidation in the logistics sector is quite strong.
Matthew Lloyd
As more Republican and Democratic officials move into private-sector jobs and then move back into the public sector, you'll see more and more cases like this.
Kirk Hanson
You're going to see the tech sector grow in high yield. Anyone (tech company) whose market cap is under $20 billion could be an LBO candidate.
Conrad Smith
We like the two-year sector.
William O'donnell
Maintaining strong fiscal performance combined with balanced investments provides a catalyst for the private sector to continue to grow.
John Winter
The market is becoming very nervous about the earnings outlook for the tech sector after a string of bearish outlooks by tech giants such as Nortel and Sun Microsystems.
Norihiro Fujito
Historically, when you look at spikes in the natural gas price, this stock has been the most leverage to that phenomenon, ... So that's been our top pick for about the last two months or so now in the energy sector.
Shawn Johnson
The Fed watches everything, but certainly the weakest sector is manufacturing. We have a bunch of little hints that things are doing better but they (the Fed) don't have to look very far to find the other pieces that show things are very weak.
Steve Slifer
Humana shares look fairly valued and we continue to favor the larger, more diversified names in the sector with strong operating platforms.
Doug Simpson
There is still some volatility in global metal prices which is a cause of worry for the resource sector.
Lucinda Chan
Precious metals are currently the in-form sector, having recently emerged from lengthy consolidations over the previous eighteen months or more.
David Fuller
I'm not surprised, because the manufacturing sector in our community is really feeling the pain and G. L. Bowron are heavily export-dependent.
Peter Townsend
I think the [new economy sector] has still got further to go down - there are concerns about interest rates and the high cost of the next-generation mobile phone licenses. We're still backing defensives and financials.
Sharon Coombs
We are concerned primarily with the industry factors and have become more cautious on the sector.
Stephen Mcclellan
The manufacturing sector continued to contract in October, ... This is the fifth month of decline following 22 consecutive months of growth. While production grew in October, the new orders index declined significantly and signals a continuing softness that could carry into the fourth quarter.
Norbert J. Ore
With his record in fundraising and foundation management, Brad has earned the respect of leaders in higher education and the corporate sector across the country.
Andrew Sorensen
The results are fine but we believe there are better investments elsewhere in the sector, not least given the stock overhang.
Greg Feehely
Europe has a much greater banking sector exposure to Brazil than the U.S..
David Coleman
It was an excellent experience. This is just what the public and private sector should be doing.
Steve Solomon
[However], it seems that the Postal Service is awfully late to the game. I think they need to be more creative and aggressive than their counterparts in the private sector.
Dana Gardner
This is yet another example of how agents react and adapt to ever-changing immigration trends. When agents started arresting large numbers of Brazilians in the RGV sector, we relied heavily on these agents to translate using their knowledge of the Portuguese language.
Roy Cervantes
We're looking at ... the impact of all the consolidation in the department store sector.
Shawn Campbell
Private sector credit from 1999 through the first half of 2001 was adding $1.2 trillion per year. It was the mother of all credit expansions.
Maureen Allyn
Look across the sector and other publishers are up ... this is a kind of pausing for breath having taken a hammering consistently for the last couple of weeks.
Andrew Gordon
It's a mutually complementary relationship. Most of the economic and trade relationship between the two countries occurs in the private sector. Political tensions should not be blurring short-term corporate decisions.
Glenn Maguire
What we're seeing with tech is consistent with the last few weeks and before. There's a lot of red out there and it doesn't seem to be any one sector in particular.
Walter Winnitzki
What people outside the UK higher education sector fail to understand is that it is the psychological effect of these changes that are making the difference.
Drummond Bone
Investors are optimistic about the Hong Kong and China story with the recent news on new initial public offerings and restructuring in the telecom sector.
David Williamson
The housing sector is finally showing that it isn't resilient to everything.
Tim Rogers
The housing sector is still weakening and it is a cause of concern for investors. I am keeping my long duration on Treasuries.
Akira Takei
We earn a good income and we negotiate pensions and health care in virtually every public and private sector of today's city economy, ... Those are all indicative a labor movement that is alive and kicking.
Brian Mclaughlin
Although 2005 has been more challenging than recent years, our businesses have performed well against sector peers and the group has made good progress, both strategically and operationally.
Geoff Cooper
The Malaysian unit trust industry has an overall compound annual growth rate of 14 percent and equity funds account for majority of the funds under management by private sector companies.
Steven Brown
Our view for the sector is moderately negative. Most of these transactions are anticipated to be financed either with debt or with huge cash piles or combinations of both.
Philipp Lotter
The sector is doing well. But they're highly leveraged. There will be a decent premium, around 10-to-15 percent, but not a blockbuster.
Steve Tuen
It's still meaningful -- it's a sector that accounts for a lot of swings in activity.
Joshua Feinman
The issue is the wages that educators make. We can't compete with what a master's degree-prepared nurse can get in the private sector.
Rhonda Taylor
You need to be diversified because you don't know which sector is going to get hit next. Just realize that nothing is ever that easy and that every recession is different.
Russell Kinnel
We are very interested in the cable television sector in Korea. It's highly diversified. We are now just beginning a period of consolidation in that industry.
John Walker
We know a lot more now about the township micro-finance sector, and we can make more informed judgments on how best to interact with these providers of finance, and how such an association can help build a strong micro-financial sector from the ground up.
Peter Setou
The earnings have been mixed. Given the valuations in the technology sector, I think it is causing portfolio managers to get a little nervous and take some profits.
John Bartlett
I think this sector will be hot with ups and downs for years to come -- its part of a global consolidation in growth business.
James Ginsburg
I actually think there are other ways of doing it. The most effective one is to include aviation within carbon trading schemes, so there is an absolute limit on the amount of emissions from the aviation sector.
Elliot Morley
We believe this sentiment will continue to serve as an overhang on the sector in the near term.
Elise Wang
Children everywhere need stability and certainty. These children need to be shown that their families are going to be okay. Those of us involved in the psychosocial sector are trying to create a safe place for them. And they need to talk about this -- information is a big part of what minimizes fear.
Elaine Bainard
It'll kill the housing sector.
Edward Leamer
It's about as inflation-proof a business sector as you can find because of the confluence of two growth industries -- health care and corrections.
Edward Harrison
That could be bullish for the stock market if the household sector concludes that real estate is not the place for speculative gains any more.
Edward Yardeni
In the past few days, Kyrgyz media have carried an increasing number of reports focusing on the role of the non-governmental sector and accusing it of serving U.S. interests and Western donors.
Edil Baisalov
We believe there will be further consolidation in our sector. We've said all along we're going to be a player in that.
Jed Westover
The fashion manufacturing sector sustains about 200 000 jobs and is vital to the economies of a number of cities and towns. We believe strong partnerships between design and manufacturing can grow the sector and create jobs.
Ebrahim Patel
The people have been in constant mobilization, and we will continue to march. We are asking for the resignation of the president, and we are demanding the nationalization of the fuel sector. It should be 100 percent for Bolivians, not for the transnational companies.
Eugenio Rojas
This is a very bond-friendly report. It was below expectations. It points to a slower manufacturing sector in the Chicago area.
Evan Rourke
Continuous strength in the electronics sector will drive growth in NODX in December.
Euben Paracuelles
They're a complete anomaly in the chip sector.
Eric Rothdeutsch
The decision to invest in Mexico would not have been possible without the support of the union and the Mexican government's commitment to the automotive sector.
Eric Ridenour
Piracy remains a real problem for virtually every sector in every country in the world.
Eric Nicoli
We live in an age where virtually every sector in every country on the planet is contaminated by piracy and counterfeiting and this is having devastating effects on our businesses, the economy and wider society.
Eric Nicoli
Iowa's leisure and hospitality industry and manufacturing, both durable and nondurable, ended 2005 on a very strong economic note. On the other hand, Iowa's transportation sector and construction industry are beginning 2006 on a lackluster path.
Ernie Goss
The leading indicators are rising. This is backed by credit data which show acceleration of loans to the private sector.
Eric Chaney
While we remain optimistic about the long-term growth opportunities in the sector, we are disappointed that we will not meet our revenue and profitability goals this quarter.
Eric Benhamou
The private sector is motivated by profit and efficiency and the US government often is not.
Eric Anderson
This will give service providers and users a consistent interface, with the same look and feel, across multiple devices. We're excited about working with HP on this because of its experience in the telecom sector.
Eric Weiss
Seven to eight million Afghans left the country not long ago. Their desire to reestablish contact with their families has carried the sector.
Emmanuel De Dinechin
Economic growth will still stay strong ... but the manufacturing sector will not help.
Elna Moolman
The bond sell-off . . . can be attributed to the stock markets rise, but the market was negatively reacting to the strong Philadelphia Fed index. It shows more evidence that the manufacturing sector has bottomed out.
Elliot Platt
If it isn't properly regulated, if people do make false claims, if we find that the market is undermined, it will be very damaging to consumer confidence in the organic sector generally.
