Yes, robert, I think there are a number of trends that will start to be more favorable for us in the US.

The wealth creation factor is working but is a bit too limited in it's current scope. Corporate profits are reasonably solid given the overall weakness in the general economy. Add the immediate benefit of lower oil and gas prices, assuming they stay low for a decent stretch of time. I will say that I'm a bit surprised by the corporate mentality of buying back stock and hoarding cash in a time when you can buy synergistic companies at very reasonable prices. There is a lot of low hanging fruit which should be snatched up now. Or find a competitor that you can merge with and reduce competition while gaining market share. Too many companies doing the wrong thing for all the right reasons!!
