A strength or an indication of historically low interest rates? The money to pay off the VC's can be borrowed very cheaply, if not by the company itself then by other investors with an interest in a longer-term investment. Beyond that, the reason private equity firms are so "deal-hungry" is low interest rates put a damper on returns from all sources.
