Consumer products however witnessed an upward movement in the stock markets. Economic analysts are not much optimistic about 2016, some of them predicting a recession soon. Their skepticism is not unfounded either; it is the eighth year of economic boom that we have entered into.

The answer to these questions lie on a number of factors like the industry your business caters to, the balance sheet of your enterprise, your business strategies and the stage of the business lifecycle your company is currently passing through.
