The way we would view this is that corporate balance sheets are in good shape and are ready to be deployed as the expansion unfolds, but given what we have been through, and we are now in the seventh year since the financial crisis erupted, any business person is prudent about deploying that money. That's hard-earned money that could be wasted, in effect, if things don't prove out.
\nBut confidence is growing both at the global level and, of course, domestically, and so our belief is that investment is actually under way, particularly in the non-energy export sector where these constraints are beginning to show up.
\nSo we're quite confident in that recovery, and the good news is that the balance sheets are ready for it.
", "fr": "\u00c0 notre avis, les entreprises affichent des bilans positifs qui pourront \u00eatre d\u00e9ploy\u00e9s \u00e0 mesure qu'on renouera avec la croissance, mais vu ce que nous avons travers\u00e9 \u2014 sept ann\u00e9es se sont \u00e9coul\u00e9es depuis le d\u00e9but de la crise financi\u00e8re \u2014, tout entrepreneur agira de fa\u00e7on prudente au moment d'investir cet argent durement gagn\u00e9, qui pourrait \u00eatre investi en vain si les choses ne se confirment pas.
\nCela dit, la confiance s'installe \u00e0 l'\u00e9chelle mondiale, et, bien entendu, au pays, de sorte que nous croyons que des investissements sont en train d'\u00eatre faits, surtout dans le secteur des exportations hors \u00e9nergie, o\u00f9 ces contraintes commencent \u00e0 se manifester.
\nAinsi, la reprise nous inspire beaucoup de confiance, et la bonne nouvelle, c'est que, gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 leurs bilans, les entreprises sont pr\u00eates \u00e0 y prendre part.
