re: "Why right after 9/11 would corp profits take such a skyward jump?"

Perhaps because of layoffs. A lot of companies had huge gains as a result of that and other cost-cutting measures they took.

Additionally, the Fed dropped interest rates to the ground and incentivized homebuyers to overspend, the SEC dropped all pretense of regulation, etc.. There was a feeding frenzy between 2000-2005. Hence, THE BUBBLE...
