...much money as their sky-high stock prices demand. And that gets to the heart of the problem. It's not so much that companies can't thrive without exports to Asia; it's that ebullient investors have put such absurdly high prices on stocks that even a minor disappointment in earnings will let out a lot of air.

Boyle is a director who has never encountered a radical angle he doesn't like, a dislocating cut between two of them that doesn't capture his fancy, an eccentric minor character he won't encourage to subvert a cliche...
