It will provide a way to determine whether this indus try has strengthened its fun damental position enough to substantially lessen the ex ent of profits erosion during a business downturn. But, Value Line points out, the textile business has made Important progress toward this goal in the last five years. The industry's capacity now Is in much better alignment with overall demand because of the elimination of many marginal producers and a shift in the makeup of the population toward building up the young adult market. While the business picture seems to have a way to go be fore it completes its "adjust ment" the situation is not as bad as one might infer from much of the foreboding senti ment circulating, says Thom as & McKinnon. The next economic impetus may well hinge on the spending plans of the consumer and the gov ernment, it adds. with Yjsm INCLUDES NORMAL INSTALL- 4 L4L IWTOWI DELlVERVsndf... 4j ,. .

PHON1 SP 2-5302 mends American Steel Foun Reynolds & Co. recom dries as an "attractive invest ment value." The manner in which management has dem onstrated its ability to main tain profit margins in periods of adverse business condi tions augurs well for record high earnings, the advisory service believes. Bache & Co. says the oil in dustry's improved price trend in the third quarter should result in "reasonably good" earnings statements particularly in comparison with poor reports which can be expected from the other groups. As the outlook for stock prices for the balance of 1980, it appears that the rath er steep market correction 'which has taken place since January has largely discount ed the adverse business news, according to Amott, Baker & Co. However, the wait-and-see policy of many individual and institutional investors, it points out, could prevent any significant rise in market prices until there is some more encouraging news, eco nomic or otherwise. .
