year new low of 4%. A majority of the participating
companies (74%) plan to reinvest with a low
quota (less than US$10 million), including 79%
of Chinese companies and 81% of American
companies. It is worth pointing out that no
American companies have reinvestment plans
for projects involving US$250 million or more
while 6% of Chinese companies plan to do so,
though the proportion drops by half compared
with a year earlier.
