Auto parts (replacement) industry

Article Abstract:

Fewer discretionary car repairs and a mild 1994-1995 winter has led to a large auto parts inventory in 1995, with lower revenues and earnings for the industry. Results for the 4th qtr of 1995 are also expected to remain low, but a harsher 1995-1996 winter and increased repairs, due to Clean Air Act mandates, will help the industry. These stocks are expected to underperform the market in 1996, but several are worth considering.

Auto parts (replacement) industry

Article Abstract:

The replacement auto parts industry performed poorly in 1995. Net income declined, although consolidated sales increased, and manufacturers and distributors had excessive inventory on hand. However, the greater number and the increased age of motor vehicles indicate moderate industry profit growth for the 1990s. There are several above-average investments among these stocks for long-term capital gains.
