My searches have only turned up unsubstantiated and contradictory responses on Wiki Answers; further reading on American investment in World War One prior to her direct entry would be of much help.

To clarify: Do you mean "before the US entered the Great War", ie before 1917; or do you mean what you wrote, "before the Great War broke out", which is 1914?
