Headline Industry Data

BMI maintains its cautiously optimistic view on the Argentine port sector. The country enjoys a good commodities mix, but it continues to struggle with external headwinds, as well as internal difficulties in the form of rising inflation and labour unrest. We continue to expect that Argentine real GDP will grow 2.9% in 2014, having bottomed in 2013 at 1.8% growth. The 2014 acceleration is expected on the back of a rebound in private consumption and less of a drag from net exports. Risks to our outlook are on the upside, as the possibility of an improved business environment could lead to more outside investment in the country.

People travelling to and from the airport of Fort Myers, use companies like AAA Elite Airport Service to do so. In their daily life, the residents and visitors prefer to use their own cars to get around, instead of public transport. However, many do not want to leave their cars at the airport’s parking spaces, so they use other public or private transport to go and come to the airport. This trend has created a large demand for companies that can offer this service.

Presidential Taxi, a taxi service company, has just opened their website allowing their customers to book for reservations online. The company decided to open their website since online reservations are efficient and will prevent mix-ups of clients and/or job orders.

BMI maintains its cautious outlook for the Argentine freight transport sector. The country enjoys a good commodities mix, but it continues to struggle with external headwinds as well as internal difficulties in the form of rising inflation and ongoing labour unrest. We expect growth to reach 2.9% in 2014. We caution that the country will continue to struggle with spiralling inflation, sluggish private consumption, and a net rag on exports.

The outlook for Algeria's auto industry is mixed as we enter 2014. On the positive side, the start of production at Renault's new Oued Tielat factory in Oran province should prove transformative for the development of a local production and automotive supply chain. Moreover, Mercedes-Benz's own production plans involve the ongoing construction of three major industrial projects in Rouiba (Algiers), Ain Bouchekif (Tiaret) and Oued Hamimine (Constantine)'. These will produce commercial vehicles and engines.

According to the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association (JAMA), auto production in Japan rose 10.2% year-on-year (y-o-y) in November 2013 (latest available), to 846,151 units, bringing output for the first 11 months of 2013 to 9,240,365 units, a decrease of 4.2% y-o-y. Total output for 2013 is likely to miss our current estimate of 10.07mn units and we have therefore downgraded our 2013 production growth estimate slightly to 9.7mn units, a contraction of 2.5%.

BMI is forecasting weak growth for the South African economy over the medium term based on a slowdown in China and ongoing retrenchment in the gold mining sector. Recent industrial unrest, that looks set to continue in 2014, coupled with poor infrastructure and faltering economic growth has contributed to our bearish outlook for the South African automotive sector.

In line with BMI's view that the Vietnamese economy would accelerate forcefully into the final months of the year (see 'Economy Picking Up Pace', October 4 2013), the latest data released by the General Statistics Office (GSO) showed that the economy expanded by 6.0% year-on-year (y-o-y) in Q4 2013. This translates into full-year growth of 5.4% for 2013, just slightly above our forecast of 5.3%. The latest GDP reading, combined with the strong set of economic data we have seen in recent weeks (accelerating foreign direct investment inflows, remittances, and merchandise trade exports), have reaffirmed our conviction that the Vietnamese economy will begin 2014 on a strong note.

Although high prices and strong external demand for Australian commodity exports over the last couple of years helped to underpin the country's real GDP growth - despite the rising costs domestically, this trend has reversed as the declines in cost in competing countries make Australian products increasingly uncompetitive. This could end up having a detrimental impact on the country's shipping sector going forward.

Light vehicle sales in Mexico decreased 2.0% y-o-y in September 2013, to 78,351 units. Over the year to date, sales in this segment have increased 7.3% y-o-y, to 755,315 units. This recent moderation in sales growth is in line with BMI's core view that the market would cool slightly in the final months of 2013, mostly due to base effects from strong sales figures in Q412. We forecast passenger car sales to increase 6.6% and LCV sales to increase 8.0% in 2013. BMI maintains a bullish view on the Mexican consumer story, as retail sales have remained resilient in recent months and broader measures of consumer sentiment are positive.
