There is a lot of cash waiting for 0bama to be gone before it is spent/invested.
Absolutely. Somewhere in excess of $400 billion in the Private Equity world. Some corporations are just sitting on cash. But they aren't just going to throw money at deals the for sake of sparking an economy. The deals need to be there, and they need to be there at the right price.
What no one seems to be considering though is that the dynamics of consumption may have changed as some people have learned some hard lessons the past few years. I know that the spending habits of my family and many friends are not what they were five or six years ago.
I also think there is a lot of money on the sideline watching and waitng to see what the Fed tax policy is going to be. If Odumbo get the increases in taxes he wants, the other shoe is going to drop.
