Mobile Enabled Internet Devices Driving Internet Growth In China


The amount  of internet users in China has surged past 600 million as millions of new netizens  going  online using mobile phones and tablet computers .
Why is this so is merely  because  it is more convenient  and cheaper to own a handheld device than  owning a  laptop  in China . China  presently  manufacture and supply  the biggest quantity  of mobile internet enabled devices  for the total word supply.

The popularity of the internet in China has also  driven the explosive growth of profitable web companies and made fortunes for some Chinese entrepreneurs despite government controls on what the public can see online.


This  popularity of wireless internet was reflected  when  iPhone  4s  was recently launched  and how the  Chinese gadgets fans scramble   to  buy  the Apple New model which sold  out within hours of its China Launch.  Angry Customer shouted and threw eggs at Apple flagship Beijing outlet after  the company failed to open the store due  to overwhelming  Hot Chaotic demand  the  store outlet  
Apple  has therefore  postponed further iPhone  4S sales at its mainland stores for safety reasons but the said phones will be sold online instead   and through its local carrier , China Unicom.

Tablet war gathers pace in Asia

TABLET war is heating up in Asia, as companies from China, South Korea and Taiwan challenge the dominance of Apple’s iPad  and iPhone  in terms of features and price
  Asia will be  the next  a Major battleground because of the presence of alternatives offered by top global brands, like south Korea’s Samsung, as well as cheaper Choices from dozens of smaller firms, many of them from China.

 The emergence of lower cost tablets ,predominantly running on Google’s Android operating system, well be an important opportunity for Asian manufacturers.  Which  is  why even Samsung  and HTC
Who are  arguably the fore  runners with their experience producing smartphones  however  is meeting New aggressive   challenges     from Chinese tech firms, such as Huawei and ZTE , are also actively pursuing market share and can potentially succeed with lower-cost devices ,as the trend of netizens dependent on  lower cost  gadget is  becoming  far popular  especially  in the coming up third world economies

 In addition, traditionally PC-focused companies like Acer and Asus of Taiwan have launched some interesting tablet products.
          All of these players are really competing against each other, more than competing with the  leading player  like Samsung  and Apple   Although the iPad is expected to remain a major player in Asia, the region is different from Western  markets. .Samsung is strong in south Korea because of korean  patriotic  sentiment, while the massive China market is  flooded  with inexpensive tablets  

 ‘’They might not necessarily have the cool  feature   that apple has but.......these Chinese vendors are selling these product overseas , to other developing markets like Indonesian, parts of the Middle East and Africa and reception are doing well
        Apple’s advantage is that it has cultivated an image as a ‘’cool product  and ,in many cases  has that status-symbol element and in order to stay  ahead of competition , Apple  created  the Macbook to  ensure  it  product   are  covering    a full   sector  of its tablet  product range  

The thin and light Macbook Airs  manage   to  whet  consumer appetites and drove  up sales of Apple computers around the world .
The Macbook Air-mania took up  with good  acceptance  in popularity    but  met up  with  Intel’s  Ultrabooks  along  the way . The Ultrabook   which is as thin , as light and starting from a price point lower than the Air’s , UltraBooks are a new category of slim laptops which intel announced in May 2011

Intel is betting big on UltraBook to eventually reach the masses, setting a target for them a capture 40 per cent market share of all laptop by the end of 2012 . With  such an aggressive forecast ,   Intel has started a US$300 Million  fund to accelerate the development of ultrabooks
Four other   vendors have already launched these new machines in the world  and more are expected to follow.
 UltraBooks are targeted At users who value lightweight machines with a long –lasting battery . They are as thin as 3mm at its thinnest point, are as light as 1.1kg and have a reasonably long battery life of about five hours. They usually come state drives (SSDs ) instead of hard disk with  boot-up speeds of under 20 seconds compared to the one-to two-minute timeframe in typical  note  books  or  laptops. The screens are either 11 inches or 13.3 inches    with prices ranges  at  an affordable level  for everyone-at under US$1,000. This   price  range has a penetration  rate similar  to  smartphone  or  the iPad .

Experts  has commented  that  this may be a challenge , with the exception Of the Acer S3, which runs on entry-level specs and uses a hard disk instead of an SSD, all other UltraBook here cost more $1,400 .  It is still relatively difficult for manufacturers to achieve the components  at that price point yet , as the volume  will need  to  be   raked  up  to  get such  low price   of  which Intel  hope  that when more UltraBooks become available , this will drive down manufacturer costs and lower retail prices.
Consumers especially those is emerging markets, are extremely price conscious even if they are attracted to technology products,  Some US analyst  predicts that by 2015, 45 per cent of global laptop shipments will be ultrabooks , it forecasts that growth will accelerate from  1.5  per cent this year to 15 per cent in 2012,  maybe 30  per cent in 2013 and 40  per cent in 2014.

However Intel remains optimistic and  believe  its goal its hitting 40 per cent in the next year was challenging  but achievable.  Analyst believe   that the  UltraBook are attractive because they are significantly cheaper than it predecessors in the him-and-light category which used to cost double the price.As  long as the price is cheap , with  function as good or better  than  a tablet, it  will eventually  hold a  major portion of the market’s share ,as  many netizens  does not really uses  all the function of a Notebook , Ultra books will serves well for  such   sector of the consumer world

Year of Dragon Brings On New Gold Bullion


The year of the Dragon is a year of extremes and disturbances for both the economy and people.
On a general level, this year  sees possible  slow,  negative or slow  growth across the world for the  2nd half of the year . There are already sign showing  since last three months, but as most government will take  action to  stabilize  their economy , good  prompt economy   indicator will see good stable growth at least for the next 6 months .

Besides the credit crisis, the world economic woes are also   slowed   by the turmoil in the Middle East, where geological  and  political risk remain highs, thus causing higher oil prices that will fur the constrain global growth.

Credit  Rating downgrades will be  caused some small domino effect  especially in Europe , where they cease to move markets as much 

 With economic unrest, we can expect the economy to take a uphill  climb for a short while  before  going on a roller coaster  ride  with much  turmoil  foreseen    which might  cause Economic and financial policies to bubble  which  will   need to rely more heavily on government intervention and support. Globally, the economic outlook is difficult, with countries such as Egypt and ones in South America near bankrupt and though they will get aid from other countries, it will not help much. 

Europe’s economy is total  actually will  not be too  bad, where there are changes that lead to improvement, particularly for Germany, England, and France will perform better. The decline in banking and insurance in the past year is no longer. Internal consumerism and spending is stable.  . The Great Britain Pound will still be a strong currency  

In 2012, most the countries in Southeast Asia is foreseen will have growth in economy. India, Singapore, Philippine,  Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia will also have some improvement. However, Thailand will again have internal conflicts that will affect the economy and tourism.   other countries of Asia will experience a more rapid growth and exports will increase. The Yen will be a particularly strong currency
For the year of the Dragon, China to do all it can for growth, president Hu Jintao said in His New Year address that the country aims for steady and ‘’ growth this year, amid an unstable global recovery. Still, China’s delicate monetary balancing act will be the theme of year : it might spar with the US more aggressively in terms of currency battles.


Internal retail and exports will be weaker, posing a threat to the economy. But  as  manufacturing companies can easily adjust and be adaptable in that they  rather than making goods for exports, they can be made for internal consumption in China . Similar to Indonesia , who could not fare well in quality  export product, it has generate good economy  figure  by focus manufacturing for local consumption during the last decade  . This will help the economy and the lives of the people through reducing the chance of an increasing unemployment rate. 
The global slowdown actually last gave   China a good opportunity, where it allowed China to match the western countries in terms of economy in 2009 – 2010, that China does not only rely on exports and spending from outside. China did  use this opportunity to manufacture high tech and high end or higher quality products for the  betterment   for China’s economy long term


INFLATION  is foreseen  will  ease in most of Asia amid the general slow down, capital outflows will be the issues to watch and Asian currencies will take on the stress out and slight depreciation is possible especially for the Indian , indonesia and  Thai currency .
Thai economy should stabilise quite well as it is foreseen Tons of money  will roll back into the economy  as Thai land needs to solve their water flooding  problems for the next 2  years  at least .These  will go  into infrastructure ,and Thailand  ultimately  will come back after 
   
 Most countries will go for aggressive monetary easing. The fiscal conditions of most nations in the region are stable and that will help enormously .


THE surprise currencies of 2012  were the US dollar and the yen. US  always has it way with it currency  despite a weak economic recovery and a  during   the recent Standard and Poor’s downgrade, the US  Dollar had showed resilience  and  will progressively move forth ,while the US election  generally  will bring  some  spark  to the economy as the American  goes for Election of their New President .Another possible major contribution  is   the trouble in Europe,  the resulting panic drove risk- averse investors back to the greenback. Besides, the money machine in Washington like to  can print more dollars, if necessary.
Europe  possibility to revive back the Euro  is much to be speculated as it  involves  too many countries to come  up  with a definite solution
 
  Gold May not lose it lustre  during Dragon Year


THE yellow metal will move  again for the first  half of the year  as bullion  will hits it peak  during the year of dragon  
 Gold  will not  head  for the  slump as predicted  even with possible US Dollar  gain , as  Gold mining stock  and Gold mines  will not be as productive since Europe demands  may reduced ,but bank hold on  Gold will increase  due  to the  instability in  the major  part of middle east
  
 Slow   in demand for oil

WITH growth in resources- hungry China and India slowing and monetary tightening measures in place, the craving for oil  will slow for a while  and especially when  Middle   East  is readjusting  with New Government in place  .Even in the event of any political shock, Saudi Arabia would still be able to meet excess demand and Europe and US  are getting more involved in the region  after collapse of the last Libyan regime .
