摘要

Will 1996 bring a tail-spin following the stainless boom of 1994 - 95? The author argues that growth in consumption may pause briefly before recommencing impressive growth in 1997 - 98. New capacity coming on stream will ensure no supply shortage and raw materials supply should be able to cope with a 5% annual increase. However, greater increase than this could lead to volatility in prices.
