Industry Insider
Economic Outlook - 2003 was a banner year for the U.S. stock market as investors were nicely rewarded across the board. The Dow Jones industrial average was up 2,112 points for the year and closed on December 31, 2003 at 10,737. Although the January 14, 2000 high of 11,722 was not remotely challenged, the mood of stock investors at the beginning of this year sent positive indications that brighter times were just around the corner.
Sarbanes-Oxley - How It Affects Private Companies - For the most part, the reforms of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the broad legislation passed by U.S. Congress to control accounting abuses at public companies, are by their terms applicable only to "public" companies and their audit committees, auditors and attorneys. However, several of these requirements may also apply to private companies, like some community banks.
