Dykema Gossett P.L.L.C. has conducted a survey about the merger and acquisitions market in the U.S. The survey illustrates that industry authorities are much more hopeful about the state and future of the market. Last year, about 50 percent of the survey takers predicted that it would be weak for the next 12 months. In the 2009 survey, 81 percent predict that the M&A market will be neutral or improve immensely over the next year.
