Machinery (construction & mining)

Article Abstract:

The growth rate of domestic orders for construction and mining machinery has slowed in 1996 after gains in 1994 and 1995.

International markets are also a good profit source for the industry with the increased demand for machinery. Selected stocks in this industry, especially those with foreign markets, can be good investments.
