هواوي تهدف إلى تجاوز سامسونج وأبل في مبيعات الهواتف الذكية

خلال مقابلة صحفيه  مع جريدة وول ستريت صرح السيد/ ريتشارد يو – الرئيس التنفيذى مجموعة أعمال المستهلكين بشركة هواوى ان هواوى أصبحت شركة رائدة في صناعة الهواتف المحمولة حيث سجلت المرتبة الثالثة في سوق الهواتف الذكية بعد سامسونج وأبل،  وأبرز مثال هاتف P9 الذى حقق شعبية كبيرة.

وأضاف السيد/ ريتشارد يو"طموحات هواوي أكبر من أي وقت مضى! ومن المقرر ان تتجاوز هواوي السباق مع منافسيها الأثنين خلال السنوات الخمس المقبلة." " نحن نأمل أن تصبح هواوى الشركة المصنعة رقم 1 في العالم للهواتف الذكية. انه سباق إلى المراتب الأولى، ونحن نتحلى بالصبرحيث نعمل بكامل قوتنا وطاقتنا في الوقت الراهن. في الربع الأول من العام الحالى، زادت مبيعاتنا بنسبة 59٪ مقارنة مع الربع الأول من 2015. ومن ناحية أخرى، سامسونج حققت نفس نتائج الربع الأول من العام الماضي، في حين عانت أبل من نسبة انخفاض قدرها 14٪."

اليوم هواوي تمتلك 8.3% من السوق فى حين تمتلك أبل 15% وسامسونج 23%، ولكن بوجود نية صارمة وعزم، تخطط هواوي  الحصول على 25% من حصة السوق العالمية. تركز هواوى الأن طاقتها وتركيزها على الهواتف الذكية العالية الأمكانيات حتى تتمكن من السيطره على سوق الهواتف الذكية .

وهذا الأتجاه يفسر شراكة هواوي مع لايكا لمدة خمس سنوات مقبلة والتي قيل عنها من قبل الخبراء انها طفرة تسويقية لا مثيل لها. كم أعلن السيد/يو عن إستثمار هواوى فى حلول "الواقع الافتراضي" ومنصة جوجل لاحلام اليقظة / DayDream من خلال هاتف ذكي سوف يكشف عنه في خريف 2016.

تستثمر هواوي بكثافة في البحث والتطور حيث أنفقت 9.3 مليار دولار في عام 2015، فى حين أنفقت أبل 8.1 مليار دولار سامسونج 12.5 مليار دولار خلال نفس الفترة.

Slower, lower, weaker... but not defeated - PwC Mine 2016 report

2015 was a race to the bottom with many new records set by the world’s 40 largest mining companies

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa, June 7, 2016/ -- The first collective net loss in the Top 40’s history (US $27billion) Market capitalisation down 37 per cent (%), in some cases below Net Book Value High debt sees some miners fighting for survival , committing to asset sales Focus on costs continues, but so do economic headwinds 2015 was a race to the bottom with many new records set by the world’s 40 largest mining companies, according to PwC’s annual Minereport released today (www. PwC.com). The 13th in PwC’s industry series analysing financial performance and global trends, the report reveals a first ever collective net loss (US$27bn) for the Top 40 miners with market capitalisation falling by 37%, effectively wiping out all the gains made during the commodity super cycle. Michal Kotzé, Mining Industry Leader for PwC Africa, says: “Last year was undoubtedly challenging for the mining sector. The Top 40 experienced their first ever collective net loss, their lowest return on capital employed, a significant drop in market capitalisation, and an overall decline in liquidity with the result that the Top 40 were more vulnerable and carrying heavier debt loads than in prior years.” “We are also seeing shareholders persist with a short term focus, impacting the capital available for investment and, as a result, constraining options for growth. “But this is a hardy industry, and while many miners may be down they are certainly not out.” The report analysed 40 of the largest listed mining companies by market capitalisation. Four new entrants in this year’s Top 40 were Chinese companies. AngloGold Ashanti has reemerged in the Top 40 for the first time since 2013. The number of emerging companies included in the Top 40 has increased by two and now totals 19. For the first time, a lithium company has made the Top 40. While this must be viewed in the context of the much larger traditional energy sources, there is no doubt that the energy landscape is changing and new world disrupters will have a role to play. The financial information for 2015 covers the reporting periods from 1 April 2014 to 31 December 2015, with each company’s results included for the 12-month financial reporting period that falls into this time frame. Mine 2016 also found: Investors punished the Top 40 for poor investment and capital management decisions, and in some quarters for squandering the benefits of the boom. Concerns over the ‘spot mentality’ from shareholders focused on fluctuating commodities prices and short term returns rather than the long term investment horizon required in mining. A focus on maximising value from shedding assets as well as mothballing marginal projects or curtailing capacity by Top 40 minters. This is further evidenced by a significant drop off in capex signaling an almost stagnant investment environment. A positive focus on cost reduction resulting in a 17% drop in operating costs against a backdrop of higher production volumes and lower input costs – an impressive achievement given the production increases seen during 2015. Capital discipline and impairment levels With a further $53 billion of impairments in 2015, miners have now collectively wiped out the equivalent of 32% of their actual capex since 2010, a stark reminder of the value that has already been lost. This also represents a hefty 77% of this year’s capital expenditure. “While it is unfair to focus on the charges incurred this year as price assumptions were adjusted down, a longer-term perspective indicates a lack of capital discipline. In fact, from 2010 to 2015, the Top 40 have impaired the equivalent of a staggering 32% of their capex incurred,” adds Andries Rossouw, Assurance Partner, PwC. China not the industry hero While China is still critical to the success of the mining industry, accounting for about 40% of overall commodity demand, it can no longer be relied on to supercharge returns. As the country moves from a manufacturing based economy to a services-based economy the previously rampant demand for commodities will still not resume with the same intensity. Despite this shift, the number of Chinese mining companies in the Top 40 continued to increase from nine to 12. Debt burdens will mean some heavy lifting ahead Debt management has moved to the top of the business agenda for many of the Top 40 miners. For some, the driver was maintaining access to capital at reasonable rates. For others, it was simply crucial to survival. While the Top 40 trimmed a slither of their overall debt in 2015, liquidity metrics have begun to trigger alarms. Leverage is at an all-time high and cash used to repay debt was broadly equal to cash from borrowings. It’s no surprise that the ratings agencies responded with widespread ratings downgrades. Adds Rossouw: “The response of the Top 4o miners has been twofold: an even greater focus on cutting expenditure, whether operational or expansionary, and an acceleration in asset sales. It will be interesting to see if these efforts can continue and the subsequent knock-on effects.” While the mining industry continues to face significant challenges and constraints, Rossouw maintains there is still a long-term positive outlook. “Many of the Top 40 appreciate what is required for the marathon of mining and have their eyes firmly fixed on the long term rewards.” Distributed by APO (African Press Organization) on behalf of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC).

MEYLE engine mounts are making their debut in truck racing

Wulf Gaertner Autoparts once again trusted partner in technology of the "tankpool24" truck racing team

Hamburg, 07 June 2016. Hamburg-based manufacturer Wulf Gaertner Autoparts supplies the independent aftermarket with premium-grade MEYLE and MEYLE-HD spare parts for commercial vehicles. The comprehensive range of products also includes some 50 different engine mount applications. Testifying to the parts' superior quality MEYLE engine mounts for commercial vehicles are debuting on the race track.

Kicked off in late-April, the 2016 FIA European Truck Racing Championship is finally on – with MEYLE truck engine mounts in the line-up. Fitted on the "tankpool24" race truck, the MEYLE parts are making their debut in truck racing. "The operating conditions in motor racing are extremely demanding, calling for extremely durable parts", says Norbert Kiss, reigning European Champion for the second year running and one of the team's experienced drivers. Above-average engine speeds and excessive heat put the part materials under considerable stress. "In previous racing seasons, MEYLE brake discs and pads have already testified to their extraordinary strength – now MEYLE engine mounts have impressed us with their equally high quality", explains André Kursim, the team's second driver.

"As partners in technology our in-house engineers maintain an on-going dialogue with team's technicians, allowing us to put the MEYLE engine mounts to the test under racing conditions", says Sven Nielsen, Head of Strategic Product Development at MEYLE. "The findings are fed straight back to the development process of MEYLE truck engine mounts", says Nielsen describing the benefits of this bi-directional knowledge transfer. This allows MEYLE's engineers to scrutinize material quality and part performance when put to extremes and use the results to make continual improvements. "Naturally, our customers benefit from the technical expertise developed under race conditions. After all, we supply the team with exactly the same engine mounts we ship to our customers from our warehouse - there is absolutely no difference", Nielsen continues.

Only highest-grade rubber compounds and casing materials are used for the production of MEYLE engine mounts to make the parts last longer and perform reliably under the dramatic static, dynamic and thermal stresses to which engine mounts are exposed. The range of MEYLE truck spare parts features repair solutions from the chassis & steering, suspension & damping and cooling and brakes product groups.
