Investment Dynamics

Demand for timber continues to grow due to improving economic conditions in Europe and further development of Biomass as a commercial energy supply. When you consider this fact along with recent EU legislation in 2013, requiring all companies in Europe who purchase timber to ensure that it comes from a sustainable source has meant that supply has been reduced by up to 20% annually, this will continue to drive timber prices higher, and ensure significant profits for timber growers in Europe.

FTSE follows US and Asia upward
The FTSE 100 is up 0.83 percent in early trading this morning, continuing on from a rise in both Asian and US shares. Oil and miners are leading the surge, with BP up 2.2 percent and and Shell (LON:RDSA) up 2.25 percent. Glencore (LON:GLEN) shares are also continuing their upward spiral, trading up 3.61 percent. Oil shares are probably being helped by higher oil prices, with North Sea Brent crude up 1% higher this morning at $50.22 per barrel. Data from Wall Street last week showed encouraging unemployment figures, with new employment benefit applications dropping to a 42 year low, alleviating fears of a slowdown in the US economy. Asian shares followed the US up on Friday, with the European markets now continuing that trend. (1001GMT)

Asian shares up before key data release next week
Asian shares closed on a two month high on Friday, making the most of the calm before key economic data is released next week. Japan’s Nikkei index closed up 1.08 percent, with a weaker yen against the dollar helping to fuel the markets. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index was 0.5% higher in afternoon trade, and the Shanghai Composite rose 0.9% to 3,366.56. However, several sets of economic data is due to be released next week, including Japanese exports which are expected to rise only modestly for September. Japan’s economy has been increasingly hit by the situation in China, and analysts are awaiting data to see whether the country will avoid being dragged into recession. A Reuters poll expects imports to fall 11.7 percent in September, down for the ninth month in a row. Economic growth data for China is also being released on Monday, and is expecting to show that growth in the world’s second-largest economy has fallen to 6.5 percent in the third quarter, falling below 7 percent for the first time since the global financial crisis.

Tesla cars to ‘self-park’ from today

Tesla cars to ‘self-park’ from today
Starting from today, electric cars made by Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) in the US will be able to steer and park themselves according to Chief Exective Officer Elon Musk. The new ‘self-driving’ system is designed for cars made after September 2014, and is available in the US from today and will launch in Europe and Asia next week. However, the company has cautioned that drivers will have to continue to hold the wheel, at least for the foreseeable future. Musk said in a statement to reporters: “We’re being especially cautious at this stage so we’re advising drivers to keep their hands on the wheel just in case. “The whole Tesla fleet acts like a network. When one car learns something they all learn it. As more people enable autopilot, the information about how to drive is uploaded to the network. Each driver is effectively an expert trainer in how the autopilot should work.” Musk also commented that, although self-driving technology will mean that cars will have the capacity to drive themselves within the next three years, regulatory approval could take far longer.

Burberry shares drop 12 percent on poor results
Shares in luxury fashion brand Burberry (LON:BRBY) dropped sharply this morning, after disappointing results fell short of expectations. The company lost more than tenth of its stock value, with nearly £700 million wiped from its market capitalisation. Retail sales grew 2 percent to £774 million in the six months to September, but suffered in the UK as luxury customers from Asia took their custom to Europe instead.
Chief executive officer Christopher Bailey said in a statement:
“The external environment became more challenging during the half, affecting luxury consumer demand in some of our key markets.
“While mindful of this external volatility, our plans for the festive season position us well to return to a more positive sales trend in the all-important second half.” Burberry are currently trading down 12.54 percent at 1241 pence per share. (1021GMT)

Netflix shares fall after disappointing US subscription figures

TV streaming company Netflix announced its results yesterday, gaining another 3.62m subscribers between July and September and bringing its revenue up to $1.74 billion.

However, shares fell in after hours trading as the company saw fewer new subscribers in the US than expected, attributing this to the “ongoing transition to chip-based credit and debit cards”. It had predicted an extra 1.15m subscribers in the third quarter, but they in face totalled 880,000. The company have plans to expand internationally, launching in Spain, Italy and Portugal next week and pushing into South Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Singapore in early 2016. They expect to be breaking even for 2016 whilst money is poured into promotion in those countries, and begin making a profit again shortly after. In a statement, the company praised their ‘originals’ strategy, attributing it to the rise in subscriptions and preferring that to be their focus rather than bidding for existing series such as Top Gear:
“Just three years into our originals strategy, we have come a long way and our content is increasingly recognized for its quality and breadth. This year, we garnered a Netflix-record 34 Emmy nominations, across 11 of our original series and documentaries and won four.” Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) share price dropped in after hours trading yesterday but has since risen, trading up 0.46 percent at 110.23 pence per share.

‘Laser razor’ highlights problems of crowdfunding
The fundraising campaign for a ‘laser razor’ has been ditched from Kickstarter, after it was found that the product had no working model and technically did not exist. The product was billed as an environmentally-friendly, irritation free razor and has raised nearly $4 million on Kickstarter since the campaign began. Whilst the team behind the ‘Skarp’ razor insist the product will be ready as early as March 2016, Kickstarter have sent an email to backers explaining that “it is in violation of our rule requiring working prototypes of physical products that are offered as rewards”. The campaign was one of the most successful in the crowdfunding site’s history, far surpassing its $160,000 target, but has now been suspended by Kickstarter. However, it has since moved it’s page to rival site IndieGogo. Skarp’s CIO Oliver Pearce-Owen said of the move: “We have taken our prototype as far as we can before mass production and that is why we are on Indiegogo. “They have been incredibly helpful – it’s clear they are interested in bringing exciting, cutting edge campaigns to their platform.” This situation defines many of the reasons why critics are hesitant about the rewards-based online crowdfunding model. Unlike debt and equity crowdfunding sites, which although not risk-free do vet their projects extensively, it is all too easy for a company to put a page up on sites such as IndieGoGo and Kickstarter and encourage the public to part with their money with no real evidence of a business model or definitive plan for the funds. Whilst it is true that sites such as these are ideal for new businesses needing financial backing in order to even develop their project, backers invest on the company’s word alone and there are no repercussions or chance to get money back on a rewards-based site. Parting with significant amounts of money on sites like these remains a risky business.

Unemployment at lowest level in seven years

The UK unemployment rate has fallen to its lowest level in seven years, according to figures released today by the Office for National Statistics.

The rate fell to 5.4% in the three months to August, with the number of people in work rising by 140,000. The employment rate now stands at 73.6 percent, this highest since records began.

The number of people out of work was 1.77 million between June and August.

However, pay growth was slower than anticipated by analysts, at 2.3 percent during the last quarter, down from 2.9 percent in July. This figure is one that will be closely considered by the Bank of England when deciding when to raise rates.

JP Morgan results fall short of expectations

One of the world’s biggest banks, JP Morgan Chase, has reported a net income of $6.8 billion, below analysts’ expectations.

Net revenue was $23.5 billion, down from $25 billion the year before.
Jamie Dimon, Chairman and CEO, said in a statement: “We saw the impact of a challenging global environment and continued low rates reflected in the wholesale businesses’ results, while the consumer businesses benefited from favorable trends and credit quality.
“Our position of strength allows us to make significant investments to transform the businesses we operate, deliver better experiences to our customers and clients, gain share and be positioned to be a long-term winner.”
The bank reported $1.3 billion in legal costs for the three months to September, and warned that fourth quarter results may come in under expectation too. Shares in the bank fell 0.3 percent to $61.55 in regular trading, and another 1.4 percent after hours.
