"Buyout firms and hedge funds are considered the dominant or default bid in the market, along with companies themselves buying back billions in stock per day. Retail investors are not throwing much money at U.S. stocks and domestic mutual-fund managers are suffering weak flows and holding very little cash. One small measure of the race to find the next target of a buyout or hedge-fund bull rush is the outperformance this year of mid-cap stocks."

The following is a list of companies with the lowest price/sales ration by sector.

From Barron's 4/2/07 "There's nothing wrong with a stock sporting a fairly low price-to-sales ratio that also looks attractive based on free-cash-flow and a sum-of-parts basis. This describes Federated Department Stores (FD), soon to be renamed Macy's... Earnings and free cash flow should ramp further next year as margin enhancements from the May integration take hold. Sales per square foot at longtime Federated stores vastly exceeded those of former May stores...By some bullish estimates, free cash flow per share could double to $4 in two years, which would place the company squarely in those LBO screens, especially considering the significant value of its real estate."
