Tire & rubber industry

Article Abstract:

The tire and rubber industry is not a good investment choice in mid-1997. Tire demand has increased by 3.5% from Jan-Apr 1997, raw material prices have decreased during several quarters and pricing could ease during the final six months of 1997 to increase the viability of investment in this industry. Joint ventures and acquisitions are continuing, especially in foreign markets.

Tire & rubber industry

Article Abstract:

The tire and rubber industry is an average investment vehicle until the end of the 1990s. There are some companies that have undertaken a wise acquisition strategy while other companies have reduced their production costs. The issue of tire pricing in the replacement and original equipment sectors has caused difficulties for other companies.
