????第一季度，經季調的美國國內利潤折成年率增加了417億美元，而海外利潤下降了481億美元，原因是歐債危機持續惡化，中國和印度經濟放緩。如果這種狀況持續，高管們需要重新評估增長策略，至少短期內如此。而且，美國國內相對較好的表現也讓這些公司有足夠的理由考慮增加在美國本土的投資。

????Whereas profits from businesses at home rose at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $41.7 billion in the first quarter, profits from the rest of the world surprisingly dropped $48.1 billion as Europe's ongoing debt crisis worsens and as China and India's economy slows down. If this continues, executives will need to re-evaluate their growth strategies, at least in the short-term. And the relatively better performance at home is reason enough for companies to consider investing more in the U.S. economy.
