PRODUCT SUMMARY

PRODUCT SUMMARY FOR THE INDUSTRY |
|
|
The following topics are shown for each of the Products covered within the report. |
The Product Sector Summary and Norms for the Product are shown in this section.
This represents the major product sector data for the industry and as such
forms the basis of comparison.
Only the most critical factors should be compared with the various scenarios
given above as product averages can at best represent an indication and not a
specific point of measure.
Reliance on Product Summaries and Norms are often used by analysts in order to
support theories and suppositions and these are in turn used for investment
scenarios. In fact, Product Summary Norms or Averages are not tangible as they
combine and manipulate data from companies in wide ranging activities and thus
much of the data is uncritical.
Much of the benefit in the analysis of Product Summaries and Norms is to use
the data to provide guide-lines or parameters which can be seen to define and
identify the target product sector.
Since these Product Summaries and Norms should be representative of the entire
product range it is wise to maintain an average which encompasses all the major
countries in the trade cell.
