Financial Printing--Riding Out The Stocks

Joseph Weiss, CEO and president at Philadelphia-based Packquisition Corp., puts it this way, plain and simple: "What financial printing market in 1998? It died!"

"1998 saw a dramatic downturn of the transactional printing business, so much so that it caused us to look hard at making some labor cuts and tightening our entire financial printing effort," Weiss says. "We had to work tighter, work closer and work harder to ride out the ups and downs of the stock market this year."
