Marcus & Company Inc. analysts give their views on the data for the US second quarter.

July 2, 2011 - PRLog -- Sources close to Marcus & Company Inc. say that Marcus & Company analysts are citing recent second quarter earnings results as solid evidence that short-term growth projections are dependent on far more than the state of the regional economies, in stark contrast to many analysts who predicted doom and gloom across the board, with US stocks expected to be hardest hit as the epicenter of the current global credit crunch.

"Marcus & Company ", a prominent Venture Capital firm headquartered in New York who have been steadily gaining market traction in recent years through their successful execution of what many have described as fiercely contrarian business development strategies, are said to be quietly content with the Q2 figures, which show regional markets performances to contrast the current state of the domestic economies.

For instance, 5,494 US companies saw an average drop of only 13.4% in net earnings compared to the period of the previous year. However in Europe, where fallout from the lending crisis has been much less severe, net earnings have fallen 23.4 per cent among 2,138 companies. Analysts at Marcus & Company also apparently stated that a higher percentage of companies in the Eurozone produced negative earnings results than their US counterparts.

An unnamed Marcus & Company source went on to suggest that the results, although not unexpected by the firm, are far from self-explanatory; "Many factors are at play here which will most likely have produced this cumulative outcome. A weak dollar supporting US manufacturers and the fact that the hard-hit banking sector represents a much larger piece of the market in Europe than the US both go some way to explaining the data".

When presented with the theory that the Eurozone economy tends to mimic that of the US the previous year, the Marcus & Company source denied that this alone could explain the recent data, stating that several key indicators in the US suggested that the country is some way from emerging from the current crisis.
