Furniture/home furnishings industry
Article Abstract:
Strong earnings and share price performance have made many stocks in the furniture and home furnishings industry more timely in early 1999. Low interest rates coupled with a good housing market and good consumer confidence have created demand for home furniture, but office furniture, which responds to different factors, will expand more slowly in 1999. These stocks have not been favored by investors in 1999, but several are timely for 1999 and for the next three to five years.
