Profit cycle (trend to business profitability)

Generally speaking, a period of rising profits in individual sectors or in the economy as a whole, usually in terms of the prices of the corresponding shares. – Sometimes used restrictively to mean that a company or an industry in an economy does indeed post increasing profits (carry on increasing profits). However, these profits are not derived from operating income but from other sources, such as the sale of company shares or the revaluation of individual items. In this way, a profit is reported despite a declining return on sales. – See boom, bull, floor, contribution margin, profit, operating, profit surprises, profit warning, trading profit, bull market, prosperity, runup, topping out, return on sales.
