Retail (special lines) industry
Article Abstract:
Low inflation, high employment, and disposable income is forecast to aid consumer confidence in 1998, and the US gross domestic product is expected to grow at an average of 2.5% for the remainder of the year. Specialty store chains with unique merchandising strategies will have opportunities to grow and prosper as a result, although some sectors are mixed and competition is tough. Several of these stocks are timely for investors in 1998.

Paper & forest products industry
Article Abstract:
The forest product and paper industries are facing difficult market conditions in the late 1990s and lumber and several major paper grade prices have declined in 1998 from 10% to as much as 30%. The elimination of excess supply and capacity is a major problem for the industry, but the trend toward consolidation may alleviate the situation. These stocks are expected to lag or mirror the market in 1999.
