From: www.realestatejournal.com

Much of that heady run is in anticipation that the U.K.
government eventually will allow the establishment of real-estate investment
trusts, or REITs, as U.S. investors call them. British Land Co. and Land
Securities PLC, for example, have risen 55% to 60% -- double the rally in the
FTSE All-Share Index in the past year."

Can Google Be Public and Private?
Keith Regan 05/07/04 5:09 AM PT
For all that Google has done to revive interest in technology and IPOs in recent weeks, it also has provided new fodder for a long-running debate: Is going public the ultimate goal for all companies, or are some businesses better served by staying private?
