Glorious Sun looks bright, and analysts say it's hot
Article Abstract:
The Glorious Sun Enterprises Ltd. department store of Hong Kong seems impervious to the regional crisis and a local economic slowdown. Analysts believe that the firm's stocks are a good buy due to its outstanding performance. Glorious Sun officials have announced its plans to expand its JeansWest store chains in China and Australia to 600 by the end of March 1998. Some critics, however, do not think the firm can sustain the projected level due to China's decreasing growth.
