The majority of companies spend each year a huge amount of money in research and development or R&D. Research and development refers to a creative activity whose purpose is to improve and increase company and its workers knowledge and then to use this knowledge to improve the existing products/applications or create new ones.
Many analysts believe that a company that invests a high percentage of its revenues in Research and development is more likely to experience a high future growth because this company has more chance to develop innovative products that will contribute to its future growth.
For stocks listed on US exchanges, this downloader gets the percentage of revenues invested in research and development and stores the result in "%r&d" field of the "fundamental" database. The database is automatically created by this item the first time it is run.
This trading object doesn't only get the last value of the percentage of revenues invested in research and development; it gets the whole historical data starting from 1999.
