Anthony Hilton in the Evening Standard
Economists and traders in the City have thought and behaved for some months as if the world is coming to an end, but that is not the message delivered by Britain's listed companies. In the past 12 months, they have paid out a record level of dividends. Given that dividends are derived from profits, it suggests this is not a story of a business world on its uppers.
