if gillete can't grow their earnings 5% a year then we are all in deep doo doo. high quality businesses like g are able to grow earnings WELL in excess of revenue growth. They can take an expanding stream of free cash flow and purchase other great businesses (perhaps faster growing ones, like duracell), repurchase stock, or if the market is not valuing a dollar of retained earnings at a dollar or higher, pay it out in dividends. thats why you try and seperate the men (g) from the boys (s&p500). G can do that, and the run of the mill s&p company won't be able to.
