As always capital flows TOWARD freedom like water flows down hill.
quote:
* Companies during the first quarter brought home $300 billion of the $1 trillion in cash they had been holding overseas.
* The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act encouraged the repatriation of profits, which had been subject to additional U.S. levies after it was brought home.
* The act put a one-time tax on the money, eliminating the incentive to keep it abroad.

Investor confidence in the US markets soared right after the election and the results were immediately positive.
Thanks, Obama!

And all of this eventually leads to investment and growth.

Every one knew this would happen with deemed repatriation. Not a surprise.

It was a very good move and that accelerated depreciation was too.

Very good point IB. Those two combined were tailor made for building factories vs internationally.
The one argument is that many used that cash to buy back stock and increase the price. Well who owns that company? We do with our IRAs, pension funds, insurance companies.

They fought against it because they didn’t like the rates associated with deemed repatriation and they didn’t like the move to a participation exemption regime after the 2017 tax year. Some of the campaign proposals of former Democrat politicians called for an end to effective permanent tax deferral of foreign earnings, which would have also brought cash home...just not as much of it.

You know he will....let's see

You are correct.
Let me suggest that it is much better for the economy for companies to buy back stock if they cannot deploy it than to sit on the cash.
