Populism is on the rise across the world as President Donald Trump works to enact America-first policies, the British craft a formal exit strategy from the European Union, and two non-establishment party presidential candidates go head to head in France. But that isn't scaring corporate dealmakers in the U.S. who say more M&A opportunities are on the horizon and global politics isn't impacting their strategies.
With the U.S. seeing the second highest first-quarter deal activity in a decade (up 22% to $366 billion from last year), nearly 80% of U.S. executives say they plan to actively pursue mergers and acquisitions over the next year. That's well above the long-term average of 47%, according to new data from EY's bi-annual Global Capital Confidence Barometer, which surveys 2,300 corporate executives.

> You'd trust the libtards in the rest of the MSM to cover business?
I remember when I taught you the word 'libtard' — you were so ignorant you thought it was a slight against libertarians.
Now its your favorite word, you wail on it every chance you get, like boy who just started puberty and realized his dick does more than just piss.
But you are still just as ignorant.
The 'MSM' is all about business, they are all big businesses themselves, most of them part of even bigger conglomerates.
The idea that any mainstream news reporting is anti-business in any way is an alt-fact.

Sorry, you don't get to claim that. That particularly useful bit of language was introduced to me by a shit-posting porn actress.
My rights don't end where your fear begins.

Your fantasies about me are disgusting, but unsurprising.
