Shareholders have raised the bar,” said Alan Gayle, senior investment strategist at RidgeWorth Capital Management in Richmond, Virginia, which oversees $45 billion. “Companies are going to have to find ways to generate more return,” he said. “The idea of sitting on idle cash in a zero interest rate environment is increasingly viewed as a nonviable option.”
AT&T, Schwab

wow.

I think the "new" best stategy companies could revert to is:

Say...
You took a company like APPL and they decided to invest 10% of their cash into BEAR MARKET STRATEGIES.

They could INSUR/HEDGE their own company value for 10%....while in a non tech cycle.. have increases of 20-50% from the
bear market strategy/ say in precious metals.

I THINK THIS IS THE NEW BUSINESS MODEL SHIFT <<<
Maybe some smart rich guys....will actually figure this out and impliment.
