X1 = Annual change, in billions of dollars, in foreign direct investment in the U.S. (excluding finance, insurance, and real estate);

X2 = Bank price-earnings ratio;

X3 = Index of the exchange value of the dollar.

The regression results from the sample data gave the following population parameter estimates:
a = -3.248 b1= .101 b2= -.244 b3=.057 R2=.93
