| Tiivistelmä: | Earnings for the 900 companies on BUSINESS WEEK's Corporate Scoreboard blasted expectations. Helped by a 33% forth-quarter gain, corporate profits grew at a 14% pace, making 1996 the fifth straight year of double-digit returns. Sales rose 11% in the fourth quarter and (% for the year. The strong finish is particularly impressive considering how the year began - with a quarter of flat profits and a sharp drop in capital-spending growth as interest-rate hikes kicked in. |
