< No one has yet described how it will happen and what factors will make it happen within a estimated timeframe.> And therfore it won't happen? <I've come to the conclusion about a month ago that all the concerns expressed on this thread and others here on SI about debt levels are essentially overblown. > Not to be glib... but the market disagrees... at least according to the ballooning equity in my pooooot account. <It doesn't matter unless a company is very small. All the big guns will trudge on like tugboats hauling their big debts around as long as they can sustain their cashflows. Cashflows are all that really matter. When times are tough, lay offs are just as effective to the bottom line as increased earnings. In fact from a tax standpoint layoffs are even better.> Small companies employ most of the people in the country, and the layoffs at large companies we're seeing [and your stating will save earnings] will only create fewer customers for the 'tugboats' and, of course, brokers touting stocks. No, it's all unfolding exactly as many here have been saying it would. Quite astounding really. Stay tuned. DAK
