Alan Skrainka Companies Quotations

I think investors should take a step back and look at the big picture. I think the (Fed) is doing its job and investors should do theirs -- avoid those companies that do not have a track record of growth.

I think people are looking for good value in the market and they're finding it in 'old economy' stocks. What these companies have in common is they're all viewed as great companies at a strong price that are not dependent on a slow economy.

It has nothing to do with the economy. It was in the private equity unit where they tried to help fledgling tech companies get started.

Technology is still the fastest growing segment of the US economy. Earnings are growing at 20-30 percent year over year, and US companies lead the world in almost every major category.

It's just the nuttiest argument that I've ever heard -- this whole idea of old economy versus new economy assumes that we're all going to be sitting around in the dark, naked and hungry, surfing on the Internet. The idea that you don't need food companies or companies like Procter & Gamble anymore is just nuts.
