Article Abstract:
A study by the Jardine Fleming International Securities turned up an interesting investment technique when banks offer additional shares to investors, that of selling shares held by investors to avoid a reduction of the share's profit potential. Jardine economist attribute the profit reduction potential of share offerings to the 'dilution effect', since the new share offerings would dilute earnings, having to divide the earnings to more numbers of shares.

Investment experts turn to EVA for picks
Article Abstract:
Investment advisers have increasingly turned to Economic Value Added (EVA) as a measure of business performance for the purpose of picking investment prospects. The net income and price/earnings (P/E) ratios are being replaced by EVA as they are prone to be distorted by profit swings and accounting quirks. Many analysts are in agreement that the P/E ratios are not a good measure of performance.
