Restaurant industry

Article Abstract:

The restaurant industry is comprised of the casual dining, family, and fast food segments. These segments have been showing divergent trends in the last three months of 1995. Fast food chains are having the best results, family restaurant earnings are more mixed, and casual dining chains are seeing slower sales. These stocks are average investments for 1996, but several, such as McDonald's and Applebee's, are timely.

Restaurant industry

Article Abstract:

Restaurant companies have been expanding in 1995, due to lower interest rates and other factors. Fast food chains have been actively expanding internationally, and casual diners have planned theme chains. The industry has become volatile, due to US economic slowing and fears of possible recession. These stocks are now rated average, but several are of interest to investors not looking for immediate income.
