European diversified industry
Article Abstract:
Europe is emerging from its deepest recession since 1945 and its economies are beginning to show signs of healthy growth. Hence, the multinational companies in this group are expected to do fairly well, propelled by an economic upturn in Europe and a growing US economy. However, European unemployment is still very high and domestic spending is therefore sluggish. When this factor is combined with unfavorable exchange rates between European currencies and the US dollar, profits for these companies are expected to grow only slowly.

Article Abstract:
Falling manufacturing output, lower retail sales, and higher unemployment kept the British economy weaker in the 3rd qtr of 1995. Personal debt and weak consumer confidence are keeping domestic spending low. US trade, aided by the weak pound, will help the UK economy. Lower interest rates will help employment, but fear of inflation can offset this. There are several good stocks here, but investors must heed safety and timeliness rankings.

Article Abstract:
The European economy is healthier in 1995 than in recent years, with the second year of its recovery in progress. With economic growth in the US softening to less than 3%, and higher than expected European unemployment, European companies are seeking to export to the emerging markets of Asia and Latin America. Stocks in several diversified European companies have possibilities for price and capital growth.
