Chemical (specialty)

Article Abstract:

Many specialty chemical companies are expected to improve operating margins in 1998 and 1999 with the expansion of their production capacity and the reorganization of their existing operations. However, the environment of several industry sectors has become difficult and industry consolidation can be expected. Many of these stocks are untimely due to the diverse nature of the industry, but several have long-term above-average growth potential.

Chemical (specialty)

Article Abstract:

The specialty chemical industry is exposed to a wide variety of cyclical and noncyclical industries as it is comprised of a diverse group of companies and sectors. The cost structure of many of these companies has been altered during the 1990s, allowing for wider margins, and the consoolidation trend of the 1990s is expected to continue, as well. These stocks are not timely in 1998 and investors should consider individual commitments only.
