"India Shipping Report Q4 2014" Is Now Available at Fast Market Research

LogoThe primary issue in Indian shipping continues to be the state of the nation's ports. Investment in the 12 major state-run facilities has not kept up with the demand engendered by rapid economic growth experienced in India over the past decade. This is leading to repeated issues of congestion in the ports, but investment is now starting to be made. However, this may be a case of too little, too late. Further, Indian ports' troubles have been compounded by a fall in demand in the eurozone, which has contributed to a fall in container throughput at many facilities in recent years . It is hoped that the projected return to growth in the currency bloc in 2014 will result in throughput growth returning to the major Indian ports.

"Bulgaria Autos Report Q4 2014" Now Available at Fast Market Research

LogoIn H114 Bulgarian passenger car sales rose 15.2% y-o-y, following a 5.6% y-o-y increase in June. While this is positive news for the sector, it does represent a slowdown from the 25% growth recorded for 4M14. This is in line with our view that growth would temper as the year goes on and lesser base effects come into play. We are maintaining our forecast for growth of 10% in passenger car sales in 2014, as we expect a further deceleration in the rate of growth in the latter part of the year. We expect this cooling period for vehicle sales to carry over into 2015 with projected growth of just 3.8%.

Hungary Autos Report Q4 2014 - New Market Research Report

LogoHungarian passenger car sales in June 2014 increased 25% (y-o-y) to 6,243 units. H114 sales figures came in at 32,992 units, a 21.4% y-o-y increase on H113. Consumers in Hungary are benefiting from real wages rising, lowering of interest rates and a decline in unemployment which has led to an increase in passenger car sales. This could prove short-term however, due to Hungary's relative economic instability even after recovery. The government has embarked on an expansionary fiscal policy in spite of the risks this poses to long-term stability, which may have a detrimental impact on sales figures in 2015 ( see ' Government Spending Unable To Prevent Slowdown' Aug ust 20).

New Market Study, "Chile Freight Transport Report Q4 2014", Has Been Published

LogoWe retain our cautious outlook on Chile's freight transport sector and the economy as a whole, largely on the back of the slowdown in Chinese growth and its demand for copper. We believe that weaker fixed investment in Chile amid mounting external headwinds such as cooli ng external demand for copper will affect real GDP growth in Chile in 2014. In addition, de teriorating investor sentiment and an ongoing slowdown in private consumption will drive growth even lower in Chile in 2014. Economic growth will accelerate moderately in 2015 on the back of stronger government consumption, an improved net exports position and a slight rebound in fixed investment.

New Market Study, "Singapore Freight Transport Report Q4 2014", Has Been Published

LogoSingapore's role as a global transhipment hub is both a blessing and a curse. In times such as these, when key markets in Europe and the US are either recessionary or growing sluggishly, it can be hit by depleted freight volumes. In 2014, we forecast growth in both port and airport total tonnage volumes, though it will be sluggish. Both facilities are investing considerably, and we are confident of growth over the medium and long term.

New Market Report: Canada Autos Report Q4 2014

LogoLooking to 2015 and beyond, we maintain our view that the market will slow from its current pace, but positive growth, can be sustained over our forecast period to 2018, particularly if a soft landing for the housing market - a key indicator of light truck demand - can be successfully engineered. Our expectation for no rate hikes until the end of 2015 at the earliest also bodes well for vehicle sales, as auto loans have been driving growth in recent years thanks to low rates and longer terms.

This came from a 7.0% drop in passenger car sales and 13.3% fall in the commercial vehicle (CV) segment. In 2014, we expect to see a resurgence across the market due to low base effects and pent-up demand and accordingly forecast 3.3% growth in vehicle sales over the year.
