In Hey, Let’s Buy Something Big (Business Week, October 24, 2005), the authors report on M&A activity for Europe and the United States for 3Q2005. The sentence I wrote based on their information was:

“ … in the third quarter of 2005, European companies consummated deals to the value of $317.2 billion, and in the United States to the value of $210.9 billion“

Can you tell me where to find current data on this?

TIA
