reported earnings of S&P 500 companies is quite a bit higher than actual free cash flow.


Would you mind posting a link to this data? I have done some research that indicates, to my surprise, that over any 10 year period, earnings and free cash flow strongly correlate.

is maybe a coincidental indicator when and if growth offsets the other two factors, but one would go broke relying on it in a slow-growth economy.

Can you say more about this? Why would slow growth in itself cause the model to breakdown?

Thanks,
Paul
