Shoe industry

Article Abstract:

The North American shoe market is dominated by athletic footwear, and men's athletic shoes will outsell other categories through early 1997. Most US companies manufacture or contract offshore to maintain efficiency, and 90% of US-sold shoes are imported. Greater variety and more diversified product developments are expected in the second half of 1996. Several stocks have potential for 1999-2001, although the shoe industry is not timely in 1996.

Shoe industry

Article Abstract:

Earnings and stock prices are expected to be slow for shoe firms in the 2nd half of 1995 and 1st half of 1996. Makers of athletic shoes, such as Reebok and Nike, have the best prospects for earnings through 1998 and 2000. Very few stocks in this industry are favorably ranked for timeliness, and several may not be appropriate for conservative investment portfolios. Investors must research these stocks carefully before selection.

Shoe industry

Article Abstract:

The retail shoe industry is becoming competitive between existing and new businesses. The industry continues to be dominated by casual fashions, but demand for athletic shoes is expected to increase by the end of the 1990s. Few stocks in this industry will perform well in 1995 and 1996, but several may be of interest. Investors need to diversify due to stock price volatility and varied prospects for the industry.
