Toiletries/cosmetics industry
Article Abstract:
The earnings prospects for the cosmetics and toiletries industry remain positive in 1999, but the more defensive industry traits may become more important if the current 1999 business expansion turns more modest. The challenge of the mature US market for this industry is being met by new product innovation, consolidation and the development of opportunities in overseas markets. Stocks in this industry are attractive due to their good earnings, but investors need to be selective in their commitments.

Toiletries/cosmetics industry
Article Abstract:
Adverse economic conditions in Latin America, Russia, and the Pacific Rim countries have had a negative impact on some of the companies that comprise the toiletries/cosmetic industry in 1999. The best prospects for the retail segment of this industry in 1999 is in the US, but there are good opportunities for growth in several select foreign areas. These stocks are expected to perform with the market in 1999 and the year 2000, but the price potential for the next three to five years is limited.
