Toiletries/cosmetics industry

Article Abstract:

Stocks in the toiletries/cosmetics industry outperformed other industries in 1996, and are also expected to do well in 1997. The European and US markets for these products are well established and are in line with demographics in spite of retail shelf constraints, the proliferation of new products, and irregular order patterns. However, profit increases in 1997 are expected to be good. Investors must focus on solid stocks in this timely industry.

Industrial services industry

Article Abstract:

The industrial services industry reports good earnings in 1996 in response to economic expansion, and profit growth is expected to continue in 1997. Market consolidation in the industry and increased outsourcing in the 1990s by government and business are having a positive impact on these companies. These stocks are timely for 1996 and 1997 and will outperform the market, and many offer growth potential for the next three to five years.
