Medical supplies industry
Article Abstract:
Several medical supplies stocks are expected to outperform the market through 1996. Hospitals are cutting costs, reducing capital expenses for equipment, and are entering exclusive contracts for supplies. However, revenue and earnings for both manufacturers and distributors will increase, in spite of the slowing international economies and higher interest rates. Investors need to evaluate these stocks' timeliness.

Medical supplies industry
Article Abstract:
The medical supplies industry has always depended upon technological advancements but it is necessary for the benefits of new medical instruments to be worth more than the costs. The cyclical nature of the industry does not preclude that there are stocks that will interest investors. It is necessary to study their value and it may not be wise to hold on to them until the year 2000.
