Capitalizing

The article I used can be found at http://www.businessweek.com/bwdaily/dnflash/content/jun2007/db20070622_285766.htm

The stock market is a big deal in the economy. If a specific stock is doing well, they're going to let [eople know and have people talking. Blackstone has, "cultivated a mystique as the biggest, most audacious and most successful among the private-money 'value' creators." Blackstone and a rival seemed to explore a way of increasing taxes for private equity firms. This is a big deal because these businesses are capitalizing on their own profits and trying to gain more money and not thinking twice. The tax rate could possibly increase, interest rates are higher now and could increse in the future. They would be risking a lot, on the other hand they could increase productivity and earnings. Anything could happen at anytime.
