Prospects for telco competition evaporate

Share |
If the latest rumours are true, the prospects for telecommunications competition in NZ are about to evaporate. There are rumours that Vodafone in NZ are in talks to buy-out Telstraclear, the NZ subsidiary of Australia's Telstra. Telstraclear has in recent times been offering the most competitive telco packages, so it strikes me as probable that Vodafone will be looking to unhinge its competitor before it poses a risk to its margins. NZ is of course a stagnant market; so its understandable why Telstra is leaving. The question is why they ever entered the market in the first place....if not just to 'extort' a buy-out from one of the majors by selling its customer base. Entering the market at the very least would have given it a better understanding of the market and its competitors.

Japan Foreclosed Property 2015-2016 - Buy this 5th edition report!

Over the years, this ebook has been enhanced with additional research to offer a comprehensive appraisal of the Japanese foreclosed property market, as well as offering economic and industry analysis. The author travels to Japan regularly to keep abreast of the local market conditions, and has purchased several foreclosed properties, as well as bidding on others. Japan is one of the few markets offering high-yielding property investment opportunities. Contrary to the 'rural depopulation' scepticism, the urban centres are growing, and they have always been a magnet for expatriates in Asia. Japan is a place where expats, investors (big or small) can make highly profitable real estate investments. Japan is a large market, with a plethora of cheap properties up for tender by the courts. Few other Western nations offer such cheap property so close to major infrastructure. Japan is unique in this respect, and it offers such a different life experience, which also makes it special. There is a plethora of property is depopulating rural areas, however there are fortnightly tenders offering plenty of property in Japan's cities as well. I bought a dormitory 1hr from Tokyo for just $US30,000.
You can view foreclosed properties listed for as little as $US10,000 in Japan thanks to depopulation and a culture that is geared towards working for the state. I bought foreclosed properties in Japan and now I reveal all in our expanded 350+page report. The information you need to know, strategies to apply, where to get help, and the tools to use. We even help you avoid the tsunami and nuclear risks since I was a geologist/mining finance analyst in a past life.
