In order to keep the Millennial generation analytically meaningful, and to begin looking at what might be unique about the next cohort, Pew Research Center decided a year ago to use 1996 as the last birth year for Millennials for our future work. Anyone born between 1981 and 1996 (ages 23 to 38 in 2019) is considered a Millennial, and anyone born from 1997 onward is part of a new generation.

The Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 brought about many major tax-reduction acts impacting low-to-middle-income taxpayers. Much of this legislation is still in place today, though the IRS has implemented many annual inflation adjustments amounts to update associated dollar amounts.
The Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 abolished the rollover rule and the age-55 rule, both of which imposed limitations to the tax benefits a taxpayer could receive upon selling their home. Instead, after the act, homeowners could exclude gains up to $250,000 if they were single filers and up to $500,000 if they were married filing joint filers, assuming the taxpayer met criteria to exclude these gains.
The Economic and Social Council takes note with appreciation of the report of the Secretary-General on the coordination of United Nations system activities for mainstreaming a gender perspective into all policies and programmes of the United Nations system (E/1997/66).
Findings From 1997 through 2016, medical marketing expanded substantially, and spending increased from $17.7 to $29.9 billion, with direct-to-consumer advertising for prescription drugs and health services accounting for the most rapid growth, and pharmaceutical marketing to health professionals accounting for most promotional spending.
Objective To review the marketing of prescription drugs, disease awareness campaigns, health services, and laboratory tests and the related consequences and regulation in the United States over a 20-year period (1997-2016).
Evidence Analysis (1997-2016) of consumer advertising (Kantar Media data for spending and number of ads); professional marketing (IQVIA Institute for Human Data Science, Open Payments Data [Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services]); regulations and legal actions of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Federal Trade Commission (FTC), state attorneys general, and US Department of Justice; and searches (1975-2018) of peer-reviewed medical literature (PubMed), business journals (Business Source Ultimate), and news media (Lexis Nexis) for articles about expenditures, content, and consequences and regulation of consumer and professional medical marketing. Spending is reported in 2016 dollars.
Conclusions and Relevance Medical marketing increased substantially from 1997 through 2016, especially DTC advertising for prescription drugs and health services. Pharmaceutical marketing to health professionals accounted for most spending and remains high even with new policies to limit industry influence. Despite the increase in marketing over 20 years, regulatory oversight remains limited.

Our gain in net worth during 1997was $8.0 billion, which increased the per-share book value of both ourClass A and Class B stock by 34.1%. Over the last 33 years (that is, sincepresent management took over) per-share book value has grown from $19 to$25,488, a rate of 24.1% compounded annually.(1)
Given our gain of 34.1%, it istempting to declare victory and move on. But last year's performance wasno great triumph: Any investor can chalk up large returns when stockssoar, as they did in 1997. In a bull market, one must avoid the error ofthe preening duck that quacks boastfully after a torrential rainstorm,thinking that its paddling skills have caused it to rise in the world.A right-thinking duck would instead compare its position after the downpourto that of the other ducks on the pond.
So what's our duck rating for 1997?The table on the facing page shows that though we paddled furiously lastyear, passive ducks that simply invested in the S&P Index rose almostas fast as we did. Our appraisal of 1997's performance, then: Quack.
Gains in book value are, of course,not the bottom line at Berkshire. What truly counts are gains in per-shareintrinsic business value. Ordinarily, though, the two measures tend tomove roughly in tandem, and in 1997 that was the case: Led by a blow-outperformance at GEICO, Berkshire's intrinsic value (which far exceeds bookvalue) grew at nearly the same pace as book value.
During 1997, both parts of ourbusiness grew at a satisfactory rate, with investments increasing by $9,543per share, or 33.5%, and operating earnings growing by $296.43 per share,or 70.3%. One important caveat: Because we were lucky in our super-catinsurance business (to be discussed later) and because GEICO's underwritinggain was well above what we can expect in most years, our 1997 operatingearnings were much better than we anticipated and also more than we expectfor 1998. 041b061a72
