Thanks for the listing...always enjoy reviewing the lists you guys put together. Two questions--
1) Is the growth rate you're showing for EPS, or for Net Income? Definitely worth knowing. As I'm sure you know, several cases have come to light recently where companies were actually borrowing to finance share buybacks. And...surprise, surprise....the CEO invariable had a bonus incentive tied to EPS growth. Perhaps one silver lining to the current credit crunch will be making these kinds of stunts less appealing.
2) any way to add a column showing the P/E ratio for each company?
Again thanks.
