Businesses must invest in products and people in order to create new wealth.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
People invest in businesses that they believe have the leadership, mission and team to grow and operate profitably.
If a rich person invests in a business, either directly or through stock purchases, it means business can grow and hire more people.
Companies that grow create wealth. This, in turn, allows people to have jobs that create more growth and more wealth. It's a virtuous cycle.
If you look historically, what creates growth and wealth is innovation and investment, and increase in scale - more customers.
Our economy is creating jobs and giving businesses the conditions they need to invest and succeed.
There are immense numbers of potential entrepreneurs who can start their own businesses among the people who are working in large organisations.
I've felt a little culpable that we entrepreneurs often invent businesses just to drive people to buy more things.
Capitalism and market forces are very powerful in producing wealth and innovation. But we need to ensure that these forces act in the common interest.
Investment is crucial. Because the truth is, you only get jobs and growth in the economy when people invest money, at their own risk, in setting up a business or expanding an existing business.
Investing is for wealth preservation, not wealth creation, so first you have to make wealth.
