As I have previously commented upon, one of the problematic aspects of today’s business environment is the continuing “lagging” nature of corporate revenue growth.
The August 2 FactSet Earnings Insight report comments upon 2nd half projected S&P500 revenue growth. Here is an excerpt, under the heading “Earnings Growth Rebound Still Projected for 2nd Half 2013, But Little Revenue Growth” :
However, estimated revenue growth rates for both Q3 2013 (2.8%) and Q4 2013 (0.7%) are expected to be below estimated earnings growth rates, particularly for Q4 2013. No sector is expected to see double-digit revenue growth in either quarter.
