Research by MST Marquee shows that 48 companies in the S&P/ASX 300 currently do not make a profit. This compares with an average of 37 over the last two decades. The 48 unprofitable companies have a combined market capitalisation of about $200bn. Hasan Tevfik of MST suggests that central banks are a major cause of the rise in profitless companies, with ultra-low interest rates prompting an increase in speculative investment.
