Shi Xinwangs jaw clenched
with emotion as he described
how he recently discovered that
his wife was a secret member of
Eastern Lightning, one of
Chinas largest doomsday cults.
In his parents freezing bed-
room cellar in their impover-
ished village in central China,
he held up a video on his phone
of his five-year-old daughter in
happier times, dancing and per-
forming for his wife Xiaowei.
At first I thought she was
just a normal Christian but
from the internet I soon learnt
that Eastern Lightning is a dan-
gerous cult, Mr Shi says. In
recent days she has told me to
withdraw all our money and
prepare to beg for Almighty
Gods mercy because the world
will end [today].
In desperation he has secretly
informed on her to the Chinese
authorities, which have been
rattled by the cult. A nation-
wide crackdown has so far led
to the arrest of about 1000 fol-
lowers of the quasi-Christian
group, which also calls itself the
Church of Almighty God.
Eastern Lightning, one of
Chinas most aggressive mille-
narian sects, believes that
Christ has been reincarnated as
a woman in central China and is
on a mission to lead the faithful
in a decisive battle to slay the
great red dragon of the ruling
Communist party.
Current and former adherents
told the Financial Times that
the group had adopted a theory
popularised in the Hollywood
film 2012 that says that an
ancient Mayan calendar pre-
dicted that doomsday would fall
today.
Believers expect three days of
complete darkness followed by
72 days of natural disasters,
starting from January 1, that
will devastate the earth and
wipe out all non-believers,
whom adherents, among them-
selves, refer to as snakes and
demons.
Followers direct recruitment
efforts at disenfranchised
groups in Chinas poorest rural
areas, including underground
Christian house churches
deemed illegal by Beijing, and
state-sanctioned Catholic and
Protestant congregations.
The pastor gave a sermon on
Sunday to warn us all about
this evil cult, says Han Xiut-
ing, 81, an administrator at the
officially sanctioned North Prot-
estant Church of Handan, the
closest city to the area where
Mr Shis wife has been trying to
harvest souls in preparation for
Armageddon.
After the service we gathered
together and burnt some of
[Eastern Lightnings] pam-
phlets.
In response to questions from
the FT, Eastern Lightning
denied that it was a cult and
said it was being persecuted by
the Communist party.
Eastern Lightning claims to
have millions of followers
throughout the country. The
government and other Christian
groups put their numbers at
close to 1m.

ICE in $8.2bn gamble with
deal to buy NYSE Euronext
By Philip Stafford
in London and
Arash Massoudi in New York
IntercontinentalExchange has
agreed to buy NYSE Euronext,
its 208-year old rival, in a $8.2bn
deal that will make the energy
and commodities bourse one of
the worlds largest derivatives
markets operators.
The deal, announced yester-
day, marks the biggest gamble
to date by ICE chief executive
Jeff Sprecher, who has long
coveted NYSE Liffe, the Euro-
pean derivatives exchange
owned by NYSE Euronext.
Last year ICE and Nasdaq
OMX jointly launched a $11.3bn
hostile bid to acquire and break
up NYSE, but abandoned the
move after US antitrust bodies
threatened to sue to block it.
ICE will keep the iconic
NYSE building on Wall Street
but wants to hive off Euron-
exts cash equities arms, which
include the stock exchanges of
Paris, Amsterdam, Brussels and
Lisbon. The company said that
it was exploring a listing of
Euronext if market conditions
allowed and European policy
makers supported the offering.
The deal will propel ICE, the
12-year-old exchange that has
grown through offering trading
in energy, emissions and com-
modities, into the trading of
listed interest-rate derivatives,
the worlds largest asset class.
It will also transform ICE into
the third-largest operator of
futures exchanges, posing a
threat to Deutsche Brse and
CME Group.
Markets have inherently
changed in the face of the
global financial crisis, said
Mr Sprecher. While derivatives
markets have become more glo-
bal . . . many cash and equity
markets have become more
regional as major European
financial institutions turned
their focus to capital efficiency
and regulatory reform.
ICEs ambitious takeover
NYSE share in a mixture of
cash and shares. The duo said
that they would have headquar-
ters in Atlanta, where ICE is
based, and New York.
NYSE shareholders will have
the option of either accepting
$33.12 in cash per share, taking
0.2581 ICE common shares or a
mix of $11.27 in cash plus 0.1703
ICE common shares, subject to
a maximum cash consideration
of approximately $2.7bn.
Mr Sprecher will remain chief
executive of the enlarged com-
pany while Duncan Niederauer,
chief executive of NYSE Euron-
ext, will be chief executive of
NYSE Group and president of
the enlarged company.
Like all other incumbent
exchanges, NYSE has seen its
dominant market share and
profits from stock trading
eroded in recent years by rivals
offering faster trading and
cheaper prices.
NYSEs combined share trad-
ing platform accounts for only
about a quarter of all US equity
trading, forcing it to focus on
European derivatives and IT
outsourcing services.
ICE was advised by Morgan
Stanley, and NYSE Euronext by
Perella Weinberg Partners and
BNP Paribas.

UK bank
panel calls
for stricter
reforms
By Patrick Jenkins
and George Parker in London
The UK risks failing to mend
bankings broken ethical stand-
ards and structure, according to
a review of the governments
reform plans by an influential
cross-party commission.
Andrew Tyrie, the Conserva-
tive MP who chairs the Parlia-
mentary Commission on Bank-
ing Standards, said the Libor
scandal which this week saw
Swiss bank UBS pay $1.5bn in
fines to regulators in the US, UK
and Switzerland was just the
latest proof that the banks
needed reining in.
Investigations into Libor
have exposed a culture of culpa-
ble greed far removed from the
interests of bank customers, cor-
roding trust in the whole finan-
cial sector, says the commis-
sions report, published today.
In a 146-page assessment of
the governments planned Vick-
ers reforms, the panel endorses
the central idea that universal
banks should be made to erect a
protective ringfence around
their high-street banking activi-
ties. However, it urges George
Osborne, the UK finance minis-
ter, to go much further.
The proposals, as they stand,
fall well short of what is
required, it says. Over time,
the ringfence will be tested and
challenged by the banks . . . to
succeed, banks need to be dis-
couraged from gaming the
rules.
The report argues for an elec-
trified ringfence, which would
see regulators given the power
to force the break-up of a bank,
or of the whole sector.
Mr Tyries panel fears the
banks will try to wriggle under,
over or around the ringfence
unless it is electrified. He
urged the banks to respect the
rules. We are saying to the
banks: help us make the
ringfence work. If not the regu-
lator may pull you apart.
The Treasury said it would
study the conclusions carefully.
Editorial Comment, Page 8
comes ahead of a big shake-up of
derivatives trading.
In the wake of the financial
crisis, global regulators want to
push more of the off-exchange
derivatives market on to trans-
parent trading venues and have
more deals processed through
clearing houses.
The changes are due to come
into effect next year in the US
and in 18 months in Europe.
Under the terms of the deal,
ICE has agreed to pay $33.12 per

in Tokyo
The Bank of Japan stepped
up its monetary easing yes-
terday with a Y10tn
($118bn) increase in the size
of its asset-purchasing pro-
gramme and signalled that
it could adopt a higher
inflation goal, as requested
by Shinzo Abe, the incom-
ing prime minister.
The central bank said it
would expand its asset pur-
chasing programme from
Y91tn to Y101tn by buying
more Treasury discount
bills and Japanese govern-
ment bonds.
Mr Abe turned the BoJs
role in reviving the Japa-
nese economy which has
dipped into recession into
a central election issue and
repeatedly called for it to do
more to combat persistent
deflation by adopting
unlimited easing.
He piled more pressure on
the bank after his Liberal
Democratic partys land-
slide win on Sunday,
reminding Masaaki
Shirakawa, BoJ governor,
of his desire to implement a
2 per cent inflation target.
Mr Shirakawa, who has
long resisted calls for more
aggressive easing, said the
BoJ policy board would
review its inflation goal at
its next meeting in January
and make a decision on
whether to change it. He
admitted Mr Abes request
for a higher price goal was
one factor behind the deci-
sion to discuss inflation at
the January meeting.
His comments heightened
expectations that the cen-
tral bank could adopt more
aggressive monetary easing
despite Mr Shirakawas own
reservations.
The chances are high
that the BoJ will raise its
inflation goal to 2 per cent
in January, said Mit-
sumaru Kumagai, chief
economist at Daiwa Insti-
tute of Research in Tokyo.
Mr Abe welcomed the
BoJs move, saying: What
we called for during the
lower house election is
being realised one by one.
After a regular meeting of
its policy board, the BoJ
which has an inflation goal
of about 1 per cent said it
would discuss the medium
to long-term price stability
that the Bank aims to
achieve at its January
meeting.
Mr Abe is expected to
choose a more dovish gover-
nor when Mr Shirakawas
term ends in April.
Some economists inter-
preted Mr Shirakawas com-
ments and the lack of a
clear commitment to rais-
ing the inflation goal as a
sign that the BoJ governor
was resisting political pres-
sure for more easing.
The BoJ believes it is
impossible to achieve an
inflation target, that it can-
not force people to go out
and spend, said Masamichi
Adachi, senior economist at
JPMorgan in Tokyo.
They are being forced to
do something that they
believe is not possible.
The BoJs independence,
as we know it, no longer
exists.
Mr Shirakawa defended
the banks efforts to stimu-
late growth, saying its asset
purchases would now be
close to 40 per cent of gross
domestic product.
Even before yesterdays
additional easing, the BoJs
asset purchase programme
was 27 per cent of GDP and
the largest among devel-
oped countries, he said.
The central bank has kept
its policy rate at virtually
zero since the collapse of
Lehman Brothers in 2008. It
adopted its asset-buying
programme in 2010.
Mr Shirakawa has warned
that aggressive bond buy-
ing by a central bank with-
out fiscal discipline would
cause a loss of market trust
and rises in long-term inter-
est rates.
Japan has a gross debt to
GDP ratio of more than 200
per cent, the highest in the
developed world.
It cannot be denied that
as the public debt rises and
the people become accus-
tomed to it, financial disci-
pline will be lost, Mr
Shirakawa said on Wednes-
day.
He reiterated his calls for
the government to play its
part to boost the economy.

By Victor Mallet
in New Delhi
Narendra Modi has been
convincingly re-elected as
chief minister of the Indian
state of Gujarat, a political
triumph that will
strengthen his chances of
becoming Indian prime min-
ister and leading the
worlds largest democracy.
Mr Modis Hindu nation-
alist Bharatiya Janata party
won 115 of the 182 seats in
Gujarat, close to the 117 he
won last time. His main
opponents, the Congress
party in power nationally
won only 61 seats, said
the Election Commission.
But in the smaller state of
Himachal Pradesh, Con-
gress defeated the incum-
bent BJP, winning 36 of the
68 seats, compared with 26
for the BJP.
Mr Modi, about to enter
his fourth term of office as
leader of Gujarats 60m peo-
ple, is credited by business
leaders and Gujarati voters
with promoting investment,
building infrastructure and
managing the local econ-
omy efficiently, in contrast
to the chaos, delays and
corruption prevalent in
some other parts of India.
We have set an example
before the country that if
good governance and devel-
opment can be seen on the
ground they will rise above
caste and community con-
cerns, he told a victory
rally in Ahmedabad.
However, the ascetic Mr
Modi is seen as divisive by
many Indians, who blame
him for the killing of hun-
dreds of Muslims by Hindu
mobs in Gujarat 10 years
ago, shortly after he
became chief minister for
the first time and a train
carriage full of Hindu pil-
grims was set alight by
Muslim attackers.
Mr Modi was accused of
discouraging police from
intervening to stop the
bloodshed over days of vio-
lence. He has always denied
the allegations and con-
demned the anti-Muslim
riots, saying he should be
hanged in public if his gov-
ernment was responsible.
The Gujarat victory will
boost Mr Modis chances of
being chosen by the BJP as
candidate for prime minis-
ter in the next general elec-
tion, due in 2014.
Congress leaders tried to
put a brave face on the
Gujarat defeat, with Palani-
appan Chidambaram, the
Indian finance minister and
possible prime ministerial
contender, even claiming
early in the day that Con-
gress was a winner in
Gujarat because the BJP
had been contained. He
said: We are not thinking
in terms of 2014 now. 2014 is
a good 16 months away.
Mr Modis victory was
nevertheless a setback for
Sonia Gandhi, Congress
leader, and her son Rahul,
who is a member of the
Nehru political dynasty and
has been groomed as a pos-
sible future prime minister.

Modis
ambition

In a poor and desolate
village in Chinas Hebei
province, Shi Xinwang
estimates about one in 10
local people are members
of the Eastern Lightning
doomsday cult including
his wife Xiaowei or in
the process of being
converted. It is hard to
know, he says, because
followers know each other
only by such codenames as
Strong as Steel and
Seeker.
Chinas modernisation
has been so fast and the
government has ignored
peoples need for spiritual
fulfilment, said Mr Shi,
who is not a follower
himself.
He said his wife was
happy and content when
they moved to Beijing in
2006 in search of a better
life and only rejoined when
she returned to their home
village to look after her
ageing father, who is also
an Eastern Lightning
devotee.
To aid in their
proselytising, Eastern
Lightnings songs are set
to the tune of Communist
anthems such as the
Internationale and the
group allegedly provides
small loans or even sexual
favours as inducements to
prospective members. The
group, inspired by myths
that the apocalypse is
coming today, is also
accused of kidnapping and
torture, say government
officials in charge of
infiltrating its ranks.
This religion is
extremely hard to smash
because they often only
have single points of
contact between separate
levels, one 33-year-old
Eastern Lightning cadre in
the eastern city of Jinan,
who is also a spy for the
Chinese police, told the
Financial Times. Its
actually very similar to the
Communist party during
its underground
revolutionary phase [before
1949].
Its also a bit like
pyramid selling, he added.
The more people you
recruit and more money
you give to the church the
higher your status will be
in heaven. If you dont
donate, you dont have a
chance for promotion in
this life either.
Eastern Lightning
representatives deny that
their organisation is a cult
and say they are being
persecuted by the
government.
In recent weeks there
have been sporadic
protests by groups of
believers in remote parts of
the country calling on
people to offer themselves
up for salvation and
taunting the ruling
Communist party that it is
about to be wiped out by
Gods wrath.
The party is especially
sensitive because of
Chinas history of
millenarianism going back
to the advent of the White
Lotus sect of Buddhism in
around the 13th century.
The Taiping rebellion a
quasi-Christian uprising in
the mid-19th century led
by a man who believed he
was the younger brother of
Jesus captured most of
southern China in a civil
war that remains the
bloodiest in history, with
as many as 30m killed.
More recently, Beijing
launched a crackdown in
1999 on the Falun Gong
spiritual movement that
has seen thousands of
adherents tortured and
imprisoned.
Eastern Lightning was
founded in the early 1990s
in central Chinas
overpopulated and poor
Henan province by Zhao
Weishan, a former member
of the radical Christian
shouters sect from
northeast China who
claimed to have discovered
the living female Christ
and told followers to throw
away the Bible.
Mr Zhao fled to the US
more than a decade ago,
where he was given
asylum on the grounds of
religious persecution.
The government has
launched attacks on the
group since it was
designated an evil cult in
2000 but, as with many
apocalyptic movements,
persecution is seen as
evidence that the end
of days is at hand.
They believe that
any hardship they
experience is a test
from God and so the
more we crack down
on them the more
they believe in this
cult, said an
official from the
Communist partys
shadowy and extrajudicial
610 office, which is
named after the date it
was established (June 10
1999) to lead the attack on
Falun Gong. The office is
now in charge of anti-
cult operations.
Although they also view
Eastern Lightning as a
dangerous cult, some
Christian activist groups
outside China are
concerned that the arrests
of adherents could mark
the start of a campaign
against underground
Christian churches.
Others argue that
restrictions on all forms of
religion actually encourage
the emergence of more
radical groups.
Mr Shi said he planned
to offer his wife an
ultimatum tomorrow, once
her doomsday prediction is
proved wrong.
If nothing happens on
December 21 then I will
tell her she has to quit and
if she wont, Ill move back
to Beijing with our
daughter and she will go
to jail.

French refuge under media siege
The little village of
Bugarach in southwest
France has found itself
under media siege this
week as the result of
internetfuelled stories that
it will survive the end of the
world supposedly due
today when the Mayan
calendar expires, writes
Hugh Carnegy in Paris.
A strangely shaped
mountain called the Pic de
Bugarach that overshadows
the village is the centre of
attention, having evoked
tales of extraterrestrial
powers for years.
Apparently, the rocks at the
top of the peak are millions
of years older than those
layered below, endowing it
with mysterious qualities.
According to internet lore,
the mountain will offer
protection to inhabitants
from the coming
apocalypse. One notion is
that it will open up and
aliens will emerge to
rescue those waiting for
redemption.
More than 200 journalists
and camera crews from
around the world have
flocked to the village for the
big day, far outnumbering
the handful of people who
have travelled to Bugarach
in search of shelter from
the worlds demise,
according to reports from
the scene.
The local authorities have
drafted in 150 police, shut
off access to the
mountain and
imposed restrictions
on movement
around the village in
an effort to keep
control.
Those deterred by
such measures had
the choice of other
sites deemed havens
from cataclysm in
Turkey, Italy and Serbia.

Park Geun-hye began her
first day as South Korea's
president-elect with a visit
to the graves of her authori-
tarian father and his most
famous opponent, as she
sought to win over her
detractors after the fiercely
contested campaign.
I will appoint people
from all regions, genders
and generations, Ms Park
said yesterday, after her
victory over the liberal can-
didate Moon Jae-in was con-
firmed late on Wednesday.
I will try to cut off the
historical loop that has
caused extreme divides and
discord in the last half
century.
Her address, at the head-
quarters of her New Fron-
tier party, followed her visit
to Seouls national ceme-
tery. In a gesture of recon-
ciliation, she bowed before
the grave of her father, the
military ruler Park Chung-
hee, and that of Kim Dae-
jung, the leader of resist-
ance to Mr Parks rule, who
went on to serve as a liberal
president.
People close to Ms Park
say that one of her priori-
ties is winning the trust of
Mr Moons supporters,
many of them young people
who view her as an unwel-
come reminder of the coun-
trys authoritarian past.
Forty-eight per cent of
Koreans voted for Mr Moon,
so she really has to bring
the country together, said
Lee Chung-min, a senior
adviser to Ms Park. When
she appoints senior people
to cabinet, she will really
reach out across the aisle.
In pre-election surveys,
most voters cited the econ-
omy as their chief concern.
Ms Park put economic
democratisation, involving
a crackdown on bad prac-
tices by big business and
more support for those fur-
ther down the income scale,
at the heart of her cam-
paign. She is likely to raise
taxes, according to one per-
son in her camp, although
detailed tax plans were not
part of her election plat-
form. She also plans to cut
tuition fees for university
students, expand state
healthcare provision, and
stimulate new industries
through measures such as
start-up incubators to
help entrepreneurs.
However, she is to take a
relatively restrained line in
dealing with the power-
ful chaebol conglomerates,
compared with the changes
promised by Mr Moon.
While the liberal candidate
pledged to abolish the com-
plex circular sharehold-
ing structures that allow
the groups founding fami-
lies to retain control, Ms
Park believes that would
leave the companies vulner-
able to hostile takeovers.
Her camp says she will
focus on ensuring that
existing laws are imple-
mented more thoroughly.
She has promised to be
less generous in her use of
the presidential pardon
than Lee Myung-bak, the
outgoing president.
The US, which favoured
Ms Parks foreign policy
stance over Mr Moons, will
welcome her victory, accor-
ding to analysts in Wash-
ington. Mr Moon was
expected to work towards a
resumption of talks with
North Korea and economic
assistance. Ms Park is keen
to improve relations with
North Korea but will main-
tain a tougher stance than
her rival against its nuclear
weapons programme.
South Korea starts a two-
year term on the UN Secu-
rity Council next month,
allowing Ms Park to build a
greater global role for the
country.

Chinese wanting to invest
in the US should not have
to undergo political back-
ground checks, a top Com-
munist party official said at
the close of high-level trade
talks with his counterparts
in Washington.
Wang Qishan, the outgo-
ing vice-premier responsible
for commerce, trade and
finance, said at a dinner
attended by US cabinet
members yesterday there
was no reason for Chinese
investors to be asked about
their political affiliations.
How can you check if
they belong to the Commu-
nist party or other parties?
he said, adding that Ameri-
cans were not asked similar
questions about their poli-
tics when investing abroad.
Mr Wang has just been
promoted to the seven-
member politburo inner-
circle, the ruling partys
most powerful body, and
will soon take up his new
job as the partys anti-cor-
ruption chief.
His comments about polit-
ical checks touch on a long-
running complaint of the
Chinese that their state-
owned companies are
unfairly discriminated
against when trying to
invest in the west.
The executives of Chinese
state companies are all
appointed, and removed, by
the personnel arm of the
Communist party.
However, China main-
tains that the companies
are independent business
entities that make decisions
on commercial grounds, not
at the direction of the rul-
ing party or the govern-
ment.

By James Politi
in Washington
The US economy grew
faster than expected by 3.1
per cent in the third quar-
ter, according to the latest
revision by the commerce
department, putting it in a
stronger position to with-
stand any shock from the
looming fiscal cliff.
The figure was higher
than the 2.7 per cent annu-
alised growth previously
estimated for the third
quarter, and far more than
the 1 per cent growth rate
that was originally calcu-
lated by the commerce
department two months
ago.
The upward revision fol-
lowed higher net exports, as
well as support from con-
sumer and government
spending.
Economists were com-
forted by the data which
showed the US economy
growing at its fastest since
late 2011 but cautioned
that it was unlikely to last
long. This revision was a
healthy one, driven by final
sales, not inventories, said
Nigel Gault, chief US econo-
mist at IHS Global Insight.
But it overstates the econ-
omys momentum, and we
expect growth of just below
1 per cent in the fourth
quarter.
Mr Gault added that the
outcome of talks in Wash-
ington to avert the fiscal
cliff a $600bn contraction
made up of tax rises and
spending cuts due next year
would be critical for the
US economic outlook.
The longer the negotia-
tions drag on, especially if
they extend into January,
the more the uncertainty
will hurt consumer and
business confidence, and
willingness to spend. A
timely resolution will help
confidence, but we should
not expect the economy
immediately to spring to
life, Mr Gault said.
Last week, the US Federal
Reserve showed it was not
especially confident in the
sustainability of the higher
growth rate seen in the
third quarter. It took the
unprecedented step of tying
rock-bottom interest rates
to the jobless level, pledg-
ing not to raise rates until
the unemployment rate
falls to 6.5 per cent, as long
as inflation does not rise
above 2.5 per cent. The US
jobless rate is 7.7 per cent,
according to the latest data
for November from the
labour department.
The stronger data on
growth yesterday came
amid encouraging figures
from the housing sector.
The pace of existing home
sales rose by 5.9 per cent to
a three-year high of 5.04m
units in November from
4.76m units the previous
month.
With tightening supply
and improving demand, the
fundamentals in the US
housing market are contin-
uing to move in a very posi-
tive direction, says Millan
Mulraine of TD Securities.
Notwithstanding these
improving fundamentals,
the housing rebound
remains vulnerable to any
disruption in the overall
economic recovery in the
near term, and any misstep
on averting the fiscal could
jeopardise the positive
momentum in this crucial
sector, he added.
Meanwhile, weekly job-
less claims rose by 17,000 to
361,000 after a big drop the
previous week.
The more reliable meas-
ure of jobless claims, the
four-week moving average,
fell to 367,000 as a spike in
claims in response to dis-
ruptions related to super-
storm Sandy in November
dropped out of the series.
Looking through the vol-
atility, it seems that the
underlying pace of lay-offs
has held fairly steady in
recent months, said econo-
mists at RBS in a note.
That is certainly encourag-
ing given the pullback in
capital spending the last
few months and the uncer-
tainty surrounding the 2013
outlook, but as we have
said repeatedly, it is the
slow pace of hiring that is
preventing better improve-
ment in the labour market,
not the current pace of lay-
offs, they added.

President Barack Obama
can take to curb investment
in the gun industry
www.ft.com/worldweekly
They are called modern
sporting rifles in investor
presentations and industry
publications. Among enthu-
siasts they are often known
simply as black rifles.
One such semi-automatic
rifle, the Bushmaster .223,
was used to kill 20 children
and six adults in Newtown,
Connecticut. These weap-
ons are now the focus of
renewed attempts to impose
tighter controls on gun
ownership in the US.
They are also among the
fastest-growing product
lines for US gunmakers.
In the 1990s and 2000s, the
US rifle industry had a
problem. Hunting, a tradi-
tional core market, was in
long-term decline, as the
country became more urban
and suburban.
The number of hunters
fell from 16.6m in 1975 to
12.5m in 2006, according to
the US Fish & Wildlife Serv-
ice.
The answer was for gun-
makers to attract a new
generation of customers
with modern sporting rifles:
guns that looked not like
their fathers old bolt-action
rifles, but like the latest
military assault weapons.
As the chief executive of
Smith & Wesson, one of the
largest manufacturers of
the new style of rifle, put it
to investors in September,
there is an important mar-
ket in younger customers
who are coming of age,
very interested in firearms,
[and] grew up playing video
games.
Machismo is an important
part of the marketing.
Bushmaster has been run-
ning adverts in mens mag-
azines saying that owning
their guns was a way to
earn your man card.
In a 2010 survey by the
National Shooting Sports
Foundation, an industry
group, 99 per cent of owners
were men.
Modern sporting rifles
look like combat rifles
because that is what they
were designed as. Most of
the ones sold in the US are
based on the AR-15 design,
developed by Armalite for
the US Army in the
1950s and now produced by
many different manufactur-
ers. There is a vigorous cul-
ture of blogs and talk-
boards, including
www.ar15.com, home of
the black rifle, where
enthusiasts discuss equip-
ment and swap tips.
Owners generally like to
accessorise their guns,
spending hundreds of dol-
lars on extras such as
sights, scopes, lights and
grips.
Like other fashionable
guns such as the Glock pis-
tol, the AR-15 has also
become part of gangster rap
culture, name-checked in
songs by Tupac Shakur, 50
Cent and Lil Wayne.
The results have been
spectacularly successful.
Freedom Group, the owner
of Bushmaster rifles, said in
its most recent annual
report: The continued
adoption of the modern
sporting rifle has led to
increased growth in the
long-gun market, especially
with a younger demo-
graphic of users and those
who like to customise or
upgrade their firearms.
Freedom estimated that
while total sales of long
guns to US consumers rose
at an annual rate of just 3
per cent during 2007-11,
modern sporting rifles grew
at an annual rate of 27 per
cent.
That growth has acceler-
ated this year. Smith &
Wesson reported its sales of
modern sporting rifles had
more than doubled in the
six months to October com-
pared with the equivalent
period of 2011.
The number of hunters
rebounded to 13.7m in 2011.
But the NSSF survey found
that hunting was not the
principal reason why people
owned these guns. Target
shooting and home
defence were the most pop-
ular reasons, with big game
hunting a distant sixth.
Although not fully auto-
matic, AR-15s are capable of
rapid fire, and large maga-
zines holding 30, 50 or even
100 rounds reduce the need
to stop and reload.
As a commenter on an
online customer forum for
Walmart, the retail chain
which is one of the largest
sellers of these rifles, put it,
they fire as fast as you can
pull the trigger.
Almost a third of the
owners in the NSSF survey
said they used magazines
holding 30 or more rounds.
The US assault weap-
ons law that lasted from
1994 to 2004, banning sales
of large-capacity magazines
and some specified models
of semi-automatic rifle, had
large loopholes that allowed
manufacturers to escape its
restraints, but is believed
by its supporters to have
had some effect on the
availability of these guns.
Their increased popular-
ity today means the politi-
cal difficulty of reinstating
a similar ban may be even
greater now than it was
then.

FINANCIAL TIMES FRIDAY DECEMBER 21 2012
By Michael Peel
in Abu Dhabi
Syrian rebels battled regime
forces around the central
city of Hama yesterday,
part of an intensifying cam-
paign to capture the crucial
road artery that links the
capital Damascus to the big-
gest cities.
Full opposition control of
the highway and rural
areas around the histori-
cally rebellious Hama and
its near southern neighbour
Homs would sever links
between the regimes twin
strongholds of central
Damascus and the coastal
northwest, analysts said.
While President Bashar
al-Assads regime maintains
control of large parts of the
biggest cities, the four-day
Hama opposition offensive
underscores how much of
the countryside and trans-
port links have slipped from
the governments grasp.
If the rebels were to take
Homs and Hama, the
regime would effectively be
cut off from its hinterland,
said Bernard Haykel, pro-
fessor of near eastern stud-
ies at Princeton University.
That would be a very seri-
ous blow.
Opposition fighters attac-
ked loyalist checkpoints in
Zughba, Maan and other
pro-regime villages in the
area around Hama, accord-
ing to the Syrian Observa-
tory of Human Rights, a
UK-based pro-opposition
monitoring group. It said
several rebel battalions
were involved in the cam-
paign, which had also tar-
geted checkpoints on the
Damascus-Aleppo road
north of Hama, where the
Syrian regime killed an esti-
mated 20,000 people during
a 1982 uprising.
Rebel forces around
Hama were trying to sur-
round a military air base
and drive out loyalist mili-
tiamen, known as shabbiha,
who have been launching
attacks from countryside to
the west of the city, said
Abu Malik, an activist who
was in the area in the
build-up to the offensive.
He said opposition fight-
ers wanted to take control
of the main north-south
road, to allow direly needed
supplies to be transported
directly from the Turkish
border to Hama and eventu-
ally Homs, which is Syrias
third-largest city. The lines
have to be open to allow
relief to go in, Abu Malik
said. We cant feed the
whole population by smug-
gling things in.
The contested 50km road
from Hama to Homs is
important to both sides, as
Homs is the meeting point
of numerous highways link-
ing population centres to
Damascus in the south. If
rebels were to cut that link,
Damascus would be isolated
from the north-western
homeland of the minority
Alawites, who dominate the
Assad government.
That would further under-
mine the regime and inten-
sify fears both of a parti-
tioning of the country and
of revenge attacks on Alaw-
ites by advancing rebels
already implicated in atroci-
ties, analysts said. Scores of
Alawites were killed in the
village of Aqrab last week,
in circumstances that
remain unclear.

Iran
Western sanctions set off
wave of street robberies
Street robberies in Iran
have risen in recent
months, resdients say, as
US and European sanctions
have taken their toll on the
economy and purchasing
power has fallen, writes
Najmeh Bozorgmehr in
Tehran.
There are no official
crime figures but Tehran
residents report assaults on
friends, relatives and
neighbours. Usually the
attackers are young men
bearing knives who demand
their victims hand over
money or other valuables.
Authorities have sought
to reassure people
concerned by the rise in
crime. Tehrans police chief,
Hossein SajediNia, said this
month more measures were
being taken to minimise
social crimes.
Ayatollah Sadegh Amoli
Larijani, the judiciary chief,
warned in midDecember
that the death sentence
applied to robbers armed
with weapons other than
guns. Peoples security is
more essential than bread.
He urged the police to kick
off a new round of dealing
with hooligans.
But one video posted on
the internet this month has
fuelled a feeling of
insecurity. Four men on two
motorbikes one holding a
knife stopped in a busy
street and forced a young
man to give them his
briefcase. They later cut his
face so he could not chase
them. Irans police have
identified the thieves and
arrested them.
The rise in crime follows
the fall of the rials value by
48 per cent this year, after
US and EU sanctions
aggravated already high
inflation and unemployment.
Official figures put the rise
in consumer prices for this
year at 26.1 per cent, while
youth unemployment stands
at 28.6 per cent. Many
people believe the real
figures are much higher.
The rise in social crimes
shows people feel under
enormous economic
pressure, said a senior
nonwestern diplomat.

Image rites: rebel fighters remove the portrait of Bashar alAssad from a military hospital at Halfaya, north of Hama Reuters
It was about time the
Syrian regime and those
who back it recognised
reality.
Nearly two years into
the most violent crisis of
the Arab awakening,
Russias deputy foreign
minister Mikhail Bogdanov
conceded this month that
an opposition victory could
not be ruled out. A few
days later, it was the turn
of Farouq al-Sharaa, the
Syrian vice-president, to
cast doubt on a military
solution and call for an
empowered national unity
government.
The shifting balance on
the ground is impossible to
ignore. Despite President
Bashar al-Assads vast
military superiority,
Syrias rebels have made
significant gains, seizing
military bases together
with more sophisticated
weaponry and forcing the
air force to reduce its
bombings of northern areas
under opposition control.
The regime lost much of
the countryside long ago.
Now its cities too are
threatened, with half of
Aleppo in rebel hands,
and a new offensive just
launched to seize Hama.
Fighting in the capital
Damascus has also
intensified, amid forecasts
a bloody battle for control
of the city is heating up.
To be sure, the regime
still has important military
assets. It can fight on and
wreak more destruction,
but it cannot win or
subdue the rebellion.
Diplomats estimate that
the regime has regrouped
as many as 80,000 of its
best trained forces in and
around Damascus
(compared with just a few
thousand inserted by the
rebels so far). It also still
has massive land artillery
capability, in addition to
the air force and an
arsenal of chemical
weapons that remains a
terrifying last resort.
Predictions of imminent
regime collapse might be
overstated. But diplomats
and analysts say the
mounting pressures on Mr
Assad present a new
opportunity to test the
diplomatic prospects.
For months, western
powers sympathetic to the
opposition (even if not
responding to dissidents
calls for military support)
have been waiting for the
moment when the regime
feels sufficiently cornered
to sue for peace. But
although Damascus and
Moscow appear to see the
moment is approaching,
the parameters of a deal
are still unclear and its
viability doubtful.
Salman Sheikh, a former
UN diplomat, now director
of the Brookings Doha
Centre, says the sticking
point remains the fate of
Mr Assad. The Russians
are flying trial balloons, he
argues, but still talking
about elections in which
the Syrian leader would
stand. The opposition and
its supporters, on the other
hand, see his departure as
the prerequisite for a
political transition.
Vladimir Putin, Russias
president, said yesterday
that the fate of Mr Assad
is not what preoccupies
him. Moscows concern, he
insisted, was to see an
agreement on what
happens next before any
change in the current
order. The necessity of an
internationally-backed
Syrian understanding is all
the more urgent today to
prevent what many
analysts warn could be
the fragmentation of
the country in the post-
Assad era.
It has gone beyond the
issue of Bashar, says
Samir al-Taqi, a former
Syrian government adviser
who is a dissident based in
Dubai. There is a
possibility that the
situation gets out of
everyones hands. What
happens after Bashar is
gone is important in terms
of who will listen to whom
and who are the forces
that can be worked with.
Without a political
understanding backed by
regional and international
powers, elite troops,
overwhelmingly drawn
from the same minority
Alawite community as the
Assad family, would
continue to protect
themselves and their areas
long after their leader is
gone, says Mr Taqi.
On the other side are
rebel factions that hold
different visions of the
future. The most fearless
and disciplined military
force among them is
Jabhat al-Nusra, a jihadi
group the US accuses of
being an affiliate of al-
Qaeda, and whose leaders
want to establish a state
based on strict Islamic
principles. Between the
rebels and the regime are
millions of Syrians who are
desperate for the suffering
and destruction to end and
are likely to be growing
tired of both sides in the
conflict. Mr Salman agrees
that Syrias future could be
one where militants and
warlords control patches
of territory, with no
central authority.
Its in everyones
interest that we start a
transition that establishes
some order, he says.

Mikhail Khodorkovsky,
once Russias richest man
who was sent to an Arctic
prison camp after he chal-
lenged the Kremlin, will be
freed in 2014 two years
earlier than expected after
authorities showed unprece-
dented leniency towards the
leading opposition figure.
But any hope that Presi-
dent Vladimir Putin might
be about to go soft on his
opponents was swiftly
crushed when prosecutors
charged opposition blogger
and protest leader Alexei
Navalny with fraud and
money laundering.
Despite the insistence of
Russias leadership that it
does not interfere in legal
matters, experts believe nei-
ther decision could have
been taken independently
of the Kremlin.
The new leniency shown
to Khodorkovsky, the
former Yukos chief, cre-
ates a picture of mixed sig-
nals coming from the
regime, which has consist-
ently tightened the screws
against the anti-Kremlin
opposition this year, said
Masha Lipman, a political
analyst at the Carnegie
Moscow Institute.
Since early summer, a
number of repressive meas-
ures have been signed into
law and criminal investiga-
tions opened against opposi-
tion leaders.
There is no reason to
doubt that the arrest of
Khodorkovsky and to sen-
tence him were decisions
taken at the very top, so
there is also no reason to
doubt that the decision to
reduce his sentence was
also taken at the very top,
Ms Lipman said.
The move to reduce the
sentences of Mr Khodorko-
vsky and his business part-
ner Platon Lebedev was
apparently motivated by a
recent decision to soften
punishments for the type of
economic crimes for which
they were convicted. The
two men deny the charges.
However, during a four-
hour press conference by
Mr Putin, during which he
lashed out at the medie-
val treatment of detainees
in the US, Russian federal
investigators announced
they would charge Mr Nav-
alny and his brother Oleg
with fraud and money laun-
dering. They accused the
brothers of embezzling
Rbs55m ($1.79m) from a
transport company in
2008-11, charges that could
carry a maximum jail sen-
tence of 15 years, according
to a spokesperson for Mr
Navalny.
Mr Navalny denied the
allegations, describing them
on his blog as blackmail,
and said they were revenge
for his taking part in an
unsanctioned protest
against the Kremlin last
weekend. This is the sec-
ond set of formal charges
filed against Mr Navalny,
who this summer was
charged with embezzlement
and causing more than
Rbs1m of damage to a tim-
ber company.
Those charges could see
Mr Navalny spend 10 years
in jail. Asked at a press con-
ference yesterday about
Khodorkovskys early
release, Mr Putin insisted
he had nothing to do with
the decision.
I am confident that eve-
rything will be fine and in
accordance with the law,
and Mikhail Borisovich
[Khodorkovsky] will be
freed, Mr Putin said. God
give him good health.
It was the first time Mr
Putin had publicly referred
to Khodorkovsky by his
name and patronymic, a
sign of respect in Russia.
He has in the past pub-
licly labelled Khodorko-
vsky a thief who
must sit in prison.
Vadim Klyugvant,
Khodorkovskys law-
yer, welcomed the reduced
sentence but called Mr
Putins comments the
usual demagoguery.
Khodorkovsky and Lebe-
dev were sentenced to
eight-year terms for tax
evasion in 2005, and con-
victed again of fraud in
December 2010, with 13-year
prison terms. The sentences
include time served since
they were detained in 2003.
Yesterdays ruling clears
the way for one of Mr
Putins fiercest critics to
walk free in October 2014;
Lebedev will be freed three
months earlier.
Pouring cold water on the
ruling, however, defence
lawyer Yuri Shmidt said he
would not believe it until
Khodorkovsky was released.
Maybe yet another case
against him will appear or
something else will happen
until the day he leaves the
penal colony its too early
to say, Mr Shmidt told
Reuters.
Khodorkovsky is a contro-
versial figure for the opposi-
tion, some of whom see him
as a symbol of defiance.
Others believe he is an oli-
garch who lost a clan war
against Kremlin opponents.
Mr Navalny, on the other
hand, has been at the fore-
front of mass protests in
Moscow and is seen as a
committed campaigner,
although some object to his
nationalist views.

Enthusiasm for the euro is
cooling among the EUs
newest members in eastern
Europe, as Latvias prime
minister warned that his
citizens were turning
against the single currency.
Valdis Dombrovskis, who
led one of Europes tough-
est austerity programmes in
part to keep Latvias euro
membership hopes alive,
says he faces a struggle to
get the Baltic republic into
the single currency by the
2014 target.
Five years ago before the
eurozone crisis everyone
wanted to enter the euro,
but we werent economi-
cally ready. Now that we
are ready to enter, many
have become sceptical,
said the centre-right leader.
Interviewed by the Finan-
cial Times in Brussels, Mr
Dombrovskis said the gov-
ernment was committed to
joining in January 2014, but
would have to work hard to
get the country on board.
Mr Dombrovskis is some-
thing of a star pupil in
Brussels for adopting harsh
austerity measures in 2009,
in part to keep Latvias cur-
rency pegged to the euro
and preserve its member-
ship hopes.
But after its economy
shrank 25 per cent peak to
trough, it resumed growth
largely without having suf-
fered social unrest. Neigh-
bouring Estonia, which also
underwent harsh austerity
measures and a deep reces-
sion, joined the euro last
year.
The Latvian prime minis-
ter said without austerity
the country could not have
met the entry requirements
of low inflation, a budget
deficit below 3 per cent of
gross domestic product, and
government debt below
60 per cent.
Bulgaria, which like the
Baltic states has pegged its
currency to the euro for a
decade and is one of only
three EU countries that cur-
rently meet the Maastricht
entry criteria in full, has
recently made clear it has
no short-term plans to move
towards membership.
Boyko Borisov, prime
minister, told the FT
recently his government
had no plans to join until
the eurozone crisis was
over. The EUs poorest
country should not have to
help fund bailouts of richer
states, he said.
In Poland, public opposi-
tion to euro adoption has
edged up slightly as the
eurozone crisis has deep-
ened, with a new opinion
poll sponsored by the
finance ministry finding 56
per cent of Poles were
against joining, up 3 per-
centage points from last
year.
Polands government still
insists it will join once its
economy meets the entry
criteria and eurozone recon-
struction is completed or,
as Donald Tusk, prime min-
ister, told parliament,
when the eurozone is safe
for each of its members.
The neighbouring Czech
government is much less
enthusiastic.
Petr Necas, the premier,
has said that his country
will not join during this
government, whose man-
date expires in 2014, and not
until 2020 at the earliest,
subject to approval by a ref-
erendum.
Vaclav Klaus, the euro-
sceptic Czech president, has
called the European Stabil-
ity Mechanism a mon-
strous and outrageous
thing and said this month
he would not sign the EU
treaty amendment creating
the eurozone rescue fund.

FINANCIAL TIMES FRIDAY DECEMBER 21 2012
popular among Christmas shoppers, but
for every one it sells at the expense of
its larger sibling, margins fall.
Part of the problem is that Apple
faces competition from Amazon and
Google, who sell their $199 tablets at
negligible margins, to drive sales of
content or search advertising.
Analysts also fear that Apples
gradual shift to a more rapid
replacement cycle, to compete with the
fast turnover of new devices from
Samsung, Amazon and Google, will also
take a bite out its profitability, requiring
a huge investment in manufacturing
and supplies, and shortening the long
tail of older, highermargin devices such
as the iPhone 4 today.
I think theyre going through a very
significant change now in terms of
product cycles, former Apple chief
executive John Sculley told CNBC.
Traditionally, Apple introduces products
once a year; now its really introducing
products twice a year.
But concerns about iPhone availability
have eased in the runup to Christmas
and Apple made good on its promise to
launch the device in 100 countries by
the years end, its fastest rollout yet.
Some argue that Apple must release a
cheaper iPhone to cater to the mass
market, where devices using Googles
Android software dominate.
In China, the hot smartphone price
point is Rmb1,000, around $160,
before [operator] subsidy, says
Benedict Evans of Enders Analysis,
compared with the iPhone 4s
unsubsidised cost of $400.

ANALYSIS
Technology
It became the
worlds most
valuable company
by being
consistently
creative in
hardware and
software but can
Apple find its way
through the cloud?
By Tim Bradshaw
Innovators dilemma
then a TV and back again.
Aware of the inroads made by
Google, Microsoft and Amazon, Jobs
impressed the urgency of the transi-
tion to becoming a cloud-services
company on his biographer, Walter
Isaacson. We need to be the company
that manages your relationship with
the cloud, he said.
Apples share-price peak on Septem-
ber 19 happens to have coincided with
the release of iOS 6, the update to its
iPhone operating system that replaced
the popular Google Maps with an infe-
rior mapping application of its own.
While Apples products have pro-
gressed into the cloud, its corporate
organisation has not adapted. Cloud-
based services, such as maps and Siri,
the iPhones virtual assistant, require
constant tweaks and improvements at
the back-end. But until this autumn,
these tasks were overseen by Apples
software division, which is accus-
tomed to big-bang annual updates,
such as iOS 6. The perfectionist pri-
vate testing and pixel-level tuning
that Apple gives to a piece of software
before releasing it requires a very dif-
ferent design and development proc-
ess to more iterative, feedback-based
services such as Maps. Yet it took two
years after iCloud was launched for
Mr Cook to make the necessary
changes to Apples management
structures in Cupertino.
A shake-up in October led to the
departure of Scott Forstall, Apples
software chief. Power shifted towards
Sir Jonathan Ive, the British designer
credited with creating the unique look
of Apples hardware. And responsibili-
ties for Maps and Siri were handed to
Eddy Cue, who runs the iTunes and
App Store units.
The exit of Mr Forstall, who joined
Apple when Mr Jobs returned in the
late 1990s, is a big loss to the com-
pany, say those who worked for him.
Even those who rankled at his aggres-
sive management style say that in
many ways he was the closest Apple
had to Mr Jobs product leadership.
Yet Mr Forstall clashed with Sir
Jonathan, who now has responsibility
for the look and feel of software in
addition to his hardware role. Rela-
tionships that held together under Mr
Jobs frayed under Mr Cook.
Time magazine. Like no other.
A much discussed idea a premi-
um-quality Apple TV set could pro-
vide a new leg of growth. Mr Cook
hinted to NBC that the TV market
was now an area of intense interest
instead of a mere hobby. After a
visit to Asia, Jefferies analyst Peter
Misek reported several prototypes
floating around that were controlled
by gestures and voice recognition. It
could launch next autumn. We think
its vital that it comes, Mr Misek
said. Its a key linchpin in the home.
We think it would act as an ecosystem
halo effect.
Apples App Store and iTunes are
vital parts of this ecosystem. One app-
market researcher, Distimo, estimates
that on a typical day, consumer
spending on the App Store is $15m,
more than four times as much as
Google Play, its marketplace for
Android devices despite the iPhones
much smaller share of the handset
market. The money spent by Apple
customers on apps makes it less likely
that they will switch to Android,
where iPhone apps are incompatible.
But the App Stores success rests
in selling third-party software, much
of which is now available on Google
and Amazons platforms. Beyond the
core operating system, Apples own
apps and services are less successful;
Ping, Apples attempt at social net-
working within iTunes, was quietly
but ignominiously shut down in Sep-
tember. Other parts of Apples cloud
suite, such as iMessage, the free
text-messaging service built into iOS,
and Game Center, Apples social-
gaming hub, are prone to bouts of
downtime.
S
ome analysts say these issues
are merely symptomatic of
Apples rapid growth and can
be fixed with sufficient time,
investment and server capacity.
These do not require the application
of magic, says Horace Dediu of
Asymco, contrasting it with the inno-
vation needed to conjure new smart-
phones and tablets.
But the concern is more acute
because of the obvious advantage that
Google, which was born online, has in
cloud services. Patrick Gibson, an
independent app developer and former
iPad engineer, touched a nerve among
Apple watchers with a blog post
observation that Google was moving
faster. Google is getting better at
design faster than Apple is getting
better at web services, he wrote.
Next year, the well-oiled Apple hype
machine will crank up again to pre-
pare the way for its latest revolution-
ary product, be it a new phone, tab-
let or TV. Yet after the stratospheric
success of the past decade, Apple is
looking for new superlatives that can
excite Wall Street as well as the high
street. Carrying its reputation for per-
fectionism into the new era of serv-
ices will not be easy.
Most companies are good at one
thing. Apple is good at two hard-
ware and software and that made it
the worlds most valuable company,
says a senior Apple employee who left
this year. But its struggling with
getting good at the third.
In the dark? Tim Cook, Apple chief
executive, admits the cloud takes his
company outside its comfort zone Getty

Fiscal years
Those guys really didnt like each
other, says a former senior manager.
Steve kept everyone in line but with-
out Steve it got worse and became
very counterproductive. Credit to Tim
that he recognised this.
Mr Cook also recognised belatedly
that just as Apples best products
blend hardware, software and serv-
ices, so too must its teams. He told
Bloomberg Businessweek he had
made the changes to ensure Apple
was a fast-moving, agile company
where there are no politics, no agen-
das . . . These moves take collabora-
tion to a whole different level.
Appointing Sir Jonathan to lead
design in what one former staffer
calls a very pixel-driven engineering
culture shows that Mr Cook recog-
nises he is a numbers guy, not
someone with the feel for products of
his predecessor. One of the chal-
lenges facing Apple is that if [Mr
Cook] is the brains, where does the
soul come from? another former
employee says.
Tony Fadell, who led Apples iPod
division until 2008, says Mr Cook is a
really smart, brilliant guy, but that
until last year he was always behind
the scenes. Steve had a track record
of innovation that allowed him to
draw in people when he had some-
thing new, Mr Fadell says. In recent
media appearances Mr Cook has made
greater moves into the spotlight but
he lacks his predecessors magnetism.
Defenders of Mr Cooks product
nous point to the huge range of new
devices that Apple launched this
autumn, with near simultaneous rede-
signs of the iPhone, iPad and iMac.
This year has been an intense
year on products, Mr Cook told
M
aybe its just the 4 per
cent curse. In February
Apple became one of an
elite group of companies
whose market capitalisation grew so
large that it made up 4 per cent of the
combined value of the entire S&P 500.
Its share price peaked on September
19 at $702.10, from which point like
Microsoft, General Electric, Cisco and
other 4 percenters before it it fell 25
per cent.
This is partly the law of large num-
bers: achieving such a great valuation
triggers limits for some fund inves-
tors. And, after appreciating by more
than 70 per cent, many shareholders
perhaps fearing new US taxes on divi-
dends and capital gains simply
decided to enjoy their profits.
But for Apple sceptics, the swinging
stock-price chart had a different
meaning: that Apple has peaked.
Some investors are starting to won-
der whether Apples brilliant second
act the period of innovation that
delivered the iPod, iPhone and iPad
and made it the worlds most valuable
company is coming to an end.
Fourteen months since the death of
its founder Steve Jobs, Apple finds
itself in a changed technological land-
scape. Rivals such as Samsung and
Google are catching up in the smart-
phone and tablet businesses it pio-
neered. And the internet and services
in the cloud whether web-based
applications such as maps and mes-
saging or the ability to synchronise
content from one device to another
wirelessly are becoming just as
important as shiny hardware.
At similar junctures in the past,
Apple has simply produced another
blockbuster device. But the opportuni-
ties to reinvent new products such as
phones or personal computers are
becoming harder to identify. A televi-
sion set, seen as the most likely inno-
vation to emerge from Apples Cuper-
tino headquarters next year, is
expected to cost $1,500, not the $400 of
an iPad or the $99 consumers can pay
to get an iPhone making it harder to
imagine as a mass-market product.
The iPhone is expected to bring in
revenues of $80bn this year, with
another $30bn or more from the iPad,
making it harder for Apple to come up
with new products big enough to
make a difference. In the meantime,
Wall Street is struggling to under-
stand how much further the existing
products can grow. China and Latin
America, the next big untapped
mobile-device markets, offer thinner
profits and tougher competition.
The most wounding criticism lev-
elled against Apple is that its innova-
tion has become incremental its lat-
est iPhones and iPads looking little
different to their predecessors. That
puts pressure on Apples accompany-
ing services to dazzle and differentiate
from its many copycats. The App
Store and iTunes are thriving, still far
ahead of their competitors.
As its leadership in hardware has
come under pressure, Apple has found
itself having to learn the rules of a
new game. Its business still revolves
around drawing customers to stores
to buy its latest must-have gadget.
But online services are increasingly
important in keeping customers loyal,
acting as the glue that moves per-
sonal information and media between
a family of devices and helping to set
Apples portfolio apart.
In the cloud, Apple is operating out-
side its comfort zone something
chief executive Tim Cook acknowl-
edged when he apologised for its
flawed Maps app in September.
Jobs foresaw the importance of a
cloud services ecosystem as a way to
defend against cheaper competitors.
In 2010, when visibly ill, he launched
iCloud, declaring it our next big
insight.
We are going to demote the PC and
the Mac to be just a device, he said,
and we are going to move the digital
hub into the cloud.
The idea was that Apples cloud
would allow iPhone owners to float
their music and apps on to an iPad,
Those guys really
didnt like each other.
Steve kept everyone
in line but without
Steve it got worse
Product mix
The iPad mini is hot but watch the margins
The hottest thing this Christmas
is the iPad mini. But many Wall
Street analysts have been reducing
their forecasts for Apples earnings
in recent weeks in part due to the
cheaper devices popularity.
Some analysts are worried that the
heyday of Apples growth and
profitability is behind it. Deceleration
for iPhone sales is a virtual certainty
in the next six to 18 months, say
analysts at Citigroup, noting that some
suppliers were reporting lower orders
from Apple. This week Citi reduced its
Apple earnings forecasts for the next
two years by about 15 per cent and
now expect its gross margins to fall
from 43.9 per cent in the year to
September to 39.5 per cent next year.

Sleeper spies dont do electric blankets
From Mr Patrick Dransfield
Sir, I greatly enjoy Patti
Waldmeirs Shanghai Notebook,
and her recent column
Remembrance of things communist
(December 19) regarding copper bed
warmers (tangpozi) and electric
blankets took me back to my days of
living in the tiny Beijing flat of a
retired chemistry professor, Song Bai
Bai, in the summer of 1985.
Prof Song had returned from a
comfortable life in America to
rebuild the Chinese nation in 1949.
One of his prized possessions was a
US-manufactured electric blanket.
During the Cultural Revolution (1965-
1976), Prof Song and his wife suffered
numerous struggle sessions,
including a raid on their home by
Red Guards, who tore apart his
electric blanket, believing it to be a
transmitting device used by Prof
Song to communicate state secrets to
his American masters.
As Ms Waldmeir rightly concludes,
romanticising the revolution is one
thing and remembering it in a
historically accurate way is quite
another.

Republicans act
as if they had won
From Mr Steven M. Clayton.
Sir, Watching the fiscal cliff
negotiations is interesting; you
would think that the Republicans
were the ones that won most of the
races on Election Night because they
are the ones making all the
demands.
The election should have taught
them a lesson that Americans want
the parties to work together. Barack
Obama wont get everything he
wants, but neither should the House
Republicans. Time to put the
American people above party or
ideology.
Steven M. Clayton,
Ocean, NJ, US
Stop the press?
Start with people and culture if you want to rein in US guns
From Mr Michael J. Feigelson.
Sir, Jacob Weisberg is right to call
for a public health approach to gun
violence, but he doesnt do justice to
the importance of culture change
an important component of the
antismoking strategies he references
(On guns, Obama should follow
Bloombergs lead, Comment,
December 19).
As a New Yorker, I found the
inconvenience of smoking in the cold
was not enough to make me quit. It
was the disappointment of a friends
six-year-old son and my wifes look
of disgust when I came to bed
smelling of tobacco. The mayors
rules then made it easier to stay
healthy.
Cure Violence, a Chicago-based
non-governmental organisation, has
shown how to use this kind of
thinking to prevent shootings and
killings. They train people who are
credible and well-connected to
anticipate and interrupt violent
events. Then, like Michael
Bloomberg, they offer help to those
who want to change and rally the
voice of the community as a
reminder that violence is
unacceptable.
The result? Reductions in
shootings and killings of between 41
and 73 per cent.
Mr Weisbergs formula will help
make things better but, paired with
a culture change strategy, we can do
even more to honour the victims of
Newtown and the 3,000 American
kids killed by gun violence every
year.

Due to a production error, it was
incorrectly stated in some editions
on December 17 that Lithuania, in
an October referendum, rejected a
plan for a pan-Baltic railway. In fact,
voters rejected one for a nuclear
power plant.
Weapons in the principals office are not the way forward
From Mr George J. Grumbach, Jr.
Sir, Louie Gohmert, a Republican
congressman from Texas, said he
wished the Newtown school principal
had had an M4 rifle in her office so,
when she heard gunfire, she pulls it
out . . . and takes him out and takes
his head off before he can kill those
precious kids (Tougher gun law
demanded, report, December 17).
Mr Gohmerts statement revalidates
H.L. Menckens aphorism that
Democracy is the theory that the
common people know what they
want, and deserve to get it good and
hard. We can now look forward to
legislation sponsored by this Solon
requiring that school principals be
combat-trained as marksmen with
assault rifles as part of their job
qualifications, and be required to
keep such weapons at their schools.

DoddFrank penalises conf lict mineral probity
From Mr Adam Greene.
Sir, Your analysis of the damaging
unintended consequences of the
Dodd-Frank provisions on conflict
minerals (The quest for clean
hands, December 19) is fully
consistent with nearly all reports
from central Africa, which show that
Dodd-Frank has indeed backfired by
creating a de facto embargo and
driving even more of the minerals
trade underground.
Barney Frank is absolutely wrong
in saying that the embargo was
caused by uncertainty over Securities
and Exchange Commission rules. The
true cause is the legislation itself,
which created huge disincentives to
sourcing from the Democratic
Republic of Congo in fact, all the
SEC rules do is specify how those
disincentives will work in practice.
Rather than encouraging responsible
sourcing from the DRC the OECD
approach Dodd-Frank imposes
significant penalties for doing so.
Indeed, the few efforts to source
responsibly from the region are
happening in spite of, not because of,
Dodd-Frank.
Unfortunately, this situation is
unlikely to change as long as the
Dodd-Frank provisions continue to
penalise, rather than encourage,
responsible sourcing from the
region.

Press freedom and
the constitution
From Mr Leo Slaggie.
Sir, William M. Pinzlers suggestion
(December 19) of a confiscatory tax
on bullets as a way to control guns
is a useful proposal but not a new
one. The late Senator Patrick
Moynihan noted that the second
amendment establishes only a right
to keep and bear arms, not to keep
and bear ammunition. Moynihan
proposed banning ammunition to
achieve complete gun control
without a constitutional problem. I
note along the same lines that the
first amendment protects only
freedom . . . of the press. It says
nothing about ink and paper. This
suggests an entirely constitutional
approach to control annoying
journalism.

Memo to Mario:
cheap funding for
Irish homeowners
From Mr Conor McCoole.
Sir, Your suggestion that Irelands
bank bailout debt obligation should
be mutualised by transferring it to
the European Stability Mechanism is
common sense (Let Ireland
succeed, editorial, December 19).
But spare a thought for hapless
homeowners who purchased their
homes in the past 10 years. They
have suffered numerous blows:
austerity, negative equity, falling
incomes, higher taxes and mortgage
interest rates that are many times
the official euro interest rate of
0.75 per cent. The dire consequences
for the economy are easy to foresee.
The damage to household wealth will
be life-long.
Heres a suggestion for Mario
Draghi, the newly minted FT
Person of the Year: consider
providing 20-year, ultra-cheap, fixed-
rate funding direct to those
homeowners suffering negative
equity as a result of purchasing their
own home in the past 10 years.
Beneficiaries should be required to
provide evidence of their home
purchase prices on the new Irish
property price register. Cheap
funding should be limited to 80 per
cent of the original home purchase
price, thereby excluding equity
release loans. Homeowners should be
allowed to keep this cheap funding
even if they sell and move.
Such a scheme would provide a
measure of direct, targeted relief
(and a little peace of mind) to
middle-class owner-occupiers who are
suffering most of all. It would help
stabilise household wealth, promote
economic recovery, reduce loan
defaults and strengthen public
acceptance of the troikas austerity
programme. And Mr Draghi could
be our Taoiseach after his stint in
the European Central Bank: Hail,
Mario the plain people of Ireland
will say!

At least 20 reasons
to impose a gun tax
It is a rare corporate press release
that inspires the reader. But such
was the case this week when I
perused a statement issued by the
private equity group Cerberus
Capital Management.
Cerberus said it would try to sell
the Freedom Group, a collection of
leading firearms and ammunition
companies that includes Bushmaster,
maker of the military-style rifle that
Adam Lanza used last week to kill
26 people, including 20 children, at
the Sandy Hook Elementary School
in Newtown, Connecticut.
Cerberus said it was shocked and
deeply saddened by the events. But
it also described itself as having
made a financial investment in
Freedom six years ago, and that got
me thinking.
For those who do not speak the
lingo of Wall Street, investors can be
classified in various ways. Strategic
investors have a background in the
businesses in which they invest; by
contrast, financial investors just
want a return. By putting itself in
the latter category, it seemed to me
that Cerberus was saying it still did
not see itself as a gunmaker even
though it had owned many of the
biggest names in the business for
years; for all the private equity
group cared, it might as well have
been involved in the production of
lollipops or lingerie.
The ability to think in this way
helps to explain why people on Wall
Street make the big bucks. It is not
necessarily because they know so
much; it is because their focus is so
narrow. Where other people see a
semi-automatic rifle capable of
killing 20 children in a matter of
minutes, they see a cash flow.
The presence of a Cerberus in the
business of selling killing machines
such as the one that Lanza used
suggests there is a pretty penny to
be made in this trade. Otherwise,
the financial folks would be
somewhere else and that has clear
implications for Americans looking
for ways to keep their children safe.
As I read the Cerberus statement,
it occurred to me that we need a
sanctions regime that will make it
less profitable to sell weapons of
mass destruction to civilians. We
should impose heavy taxes on the
sale of every military-style rifle,
every automatic handgun, every
30-round magazine, and if legal
experts say it is possible every Ted
Nugent concert ticket, compact disc
and eight-track tape (on the grounds
he can be seen as the Mahmoud
Ahmadi-Nejad of the gun-clown set).
The policy could be designed to
keep the hunters happy. The goal
would be to discourage the mass
production and aggressive marketing
of weapons that can kill large
numbers of people in a short time.
We dont need a business that
produces the kind of results we saw
in Newtown.
By focusing on the profitability of
this weapons trade, gun-control
advocates would also be able to
avoid a big historical obstacle: the
US constitution. Its poorly-edited
second amendment reads: A well
regulated militia, being necessary to
the security of a free state, the right
of the people to keep and bear arms,
shall not be infringed.
Americans have long argued
about what this means. For my part,
I have trouble seeing how a well-
regulated militia has a place for a
twisted soul such as Lanza, or for
that matter, his late mother, who
made sure that there was plenty of
whizz-bang weaponry in the home
that she shared with a disturbed
child. But other people disagree and
I suspect that enough of them wear
robes at work to make my thoughts
on this question irrelevant.
I would just refer gun-control
advocates to the part of the
constitution that can be their friend:
article I, section 8. It says: The
Congress shall have the power to lay
and collect taxes, duties, imposts and
excises. I dont see where guns or
ammunition are excluded.
There would be no shortage of
good uses for the revenue raised.
Given the precarious fiscal situation
of the US, I imagine some of the
money would inevitably be put
toward reducing the federal budget
deficit. But it would only be right to
use some of the funds to help the
victims of gun violence and their
families, to buy back guns that are
in circulation, or to provide mental
health services to all those disturbed
young men who seem to be festering
in our suburban basements.
As for the level of the gun tax, if I
had my way, it would be crippling
100 per cent, or 1,000 per cent, of the
purchase price of the kind of rifle
Lanza used. But again, I cant see
that happening. A more practical
suggestion would be to start the
additional tax at 20 per cent 20 for
the 20 children who died.

Challenges for
Koreas new leader
Park Geunhye must go beyond vague promises
The quasi-mythical status of South
Koreas president-elect Park Geun-
hye her father ruled with an
authoritarian hand until his assas-
sination in 1979 both won and
lost her votes in Wednesdays pres-
idential poll against Moon Jae-in,
who was imprisoned as a student
protester. After edging a narrow
victory, Ms Park promised to reach
across this historical divide. But
her presidency must be judged as
much on the details of her policies,
on economic reform above all, as
on lofty but vague promises.
The campaigns theme was eco-
nomic democracy, in recognition
of the growing dissatisfaction with
an economic model based on the
mighty chaebol conglomerates. The
extreme dominance of manufactur-
ing by a handful of big companies
was instrumental in South Koreas
stunning industrialisation. How-
ever, continued growth requires a
more open economic structure.
The chaebol have not spread the
wealth equitably. Socially and eco-
nomically, Koreans are segregated
by a dual economy with few cov-
eted jobs in the chaebol-controlled
manufacturing sector and a swath
of unproductive jobs in an under-
developed service sector. Fairness
and cohesion aside, the model may
not be nimble enough to do as well
in an economy where value is cre-
ated by information and innova-
tion as it did in a simpler indus-
trial era. There is too little space
for entrepreneurs at present. This
risks perpetuating the divisions
that mar the old economic model,
while losing the growth that may
once have redeemed it.
Ms Park vows to enforce compe-
tition rules more strictly against
the chaebol. Equality before the
law would be a good and overdue
start: chaebol leaders tend to be let
off too lightly even for proved
fraud. But the new president
shows signs of too much deference
to the conglomerates. She has
backtracked on ending cross-share-
holdings that allow founding fami-
lies to keep control with very
small equity stakes. She should
reconsider.
Though the election focused on
domestic policy, Ms Park also faces
challenges with North Korea. She
continues a traditionally tough
stance towards Pyongyang. While
neither that nor the rival sun-
shine policy ever met with much
success, her demand for progress
in denuclearisation as a condition
for talks is sensible. Yet she
should recall that keeping the
North engaged in talks lessens the
threat of conflict, even if only mar-
ginally. Her political ancestry
allows her to trade concessions
with the North in a way other poli-
ticians in the South cannot.
Love your gut bugs
Bacteria could play a role in the fight against obesity
Biologists are shining a scientific
spotlight on previously neglected
inhabitants of our bodies. The
100tn bacteria that populate an
average adult, living mainly in the
guts, should be treated with more
respect, recent research shows,
because they play a vital role in
maintaining human health.
The latest study by Chinese sci-
entists provides new evidence that
the different types of microbes in
the gut can help to explain why
some people grow fat and others
dont. The microbiome, as it is
known, turns out to be a risk fac-
tor for obesity, alongside eating
too much, exercising too little and
having the wrong genes. Our
digestion has evolved to work with
the help of a kilogramme or so of
microbes; the way we extract calo-
ries from food and how fast our
appetite is satisfied determinants
of how much weight we put on
depend on the balance between the
200 to 300 bacterial species that
live in a typical human gut.
As several recent studies have
shown, this balance depends criti-
cally on what we eat. People living
on a modern western diet have a
very different microbiome from
their pre-industrial ancestors. And
a study of elderly people in Ire-
land, published in the journal
Nature this summer, showed a
direct relationship between diet,
bacterial diversity and wellbeing.
Although more research is needed
to prove the point, evidence is
growing that a varied diet, includ-
ing plenty of unprocessed fruit,
vegetables and cereals, promotes
the growth of beneficial bacteria in
the human body indicating
another possible theme for public
health campaigns.
At the same time scientists at
Reading University and elsewhere
are taking a more directed
approach. They are designing and
testing prebiotic dietary ingredi-
ents to select for a beneficial com-
munity of gut bugs that reduces
the risk of obesity and associated
problems such as diabetes.
Appreciation of the importance
of nourishing a healthy human
microbiome should also lend
weight to a quite different public
health campaign: the drive to cut
over-prescribing of antibiotics for
trivial or inappropriate infections.
Although antibiotics are intended
only to kill pathogens, there is col-
lateral damage to other microbes,
upsetting the bacterial balance.
The message for the holiday
period, as you eat your festive
foods, is to remember that you are
feeding not just yourself but all
the bugs in your body. Treat them
to a varied diet and do not poison
them with unnecessary medica-
tion.
Banking reform
Commission points to shortcomings in UK coalitions bill
When the Parliamentary Commis-
sion on Banking Standards was
established in July in response to
the Libor scandal, it was asked to
comment on the governments pro-
posals for banking reform. The
coalition wanted thoughts by the
end of the year so it could feed
them into its banking bill. This is
based on the conclusions of the
Vickers commission, and recom-
mends organising large banks into
retail and capital markets units.
Under Andrew Tyrie, its knowl-
edgeable chairman, the commis-
sion has long exhibited an inde-
pendent streak. Some of the grill-
ings it has administered to former
bank chiefs have come closer than
any other post-crunch investiga-
tion to achieving the reckoning
that might allow people to put the
crisis behind them. But it has also
worried a government that is
unwilling to reopen the Vickers
proposals. George Osborne, the
chancellor, last month urged the
commission not to unpick the
consensus around the bill.
The report does not quite do
that. Nonetheless, it expresses
scepticism about the efficacy of the
proposals and suggests ways in
which they could be strengthened.
The concerns are largely sensi-
ble. There are, for instance, real
questions about whether the
ringfence can be enforced between
two types of banking under the
same roof. Incentives to pierce the
fence are impossible to eliminate,
making it vulnerable to slips in
bankers probity or regulators per-
sistence. The commission is also
right to fret about the independ-
ence of retail subsidiaries within
banking groups. The risk-taking
culture of trading is not only anti-
thetical to the conservative values
that should govern retail banking;
it is also the dominant strain. So
within a single organisation the
former is always likely to seep
through and overwhelm the latter.
The commissions answer is to
electrify the fence. This would
make it subject to periodic review;
impose new legal duties on bank
directors; and reserve the power,
should banks abuse the rules, to
enforce full separation. A simpler
approach and one the FT favours
would be to split banks cleanly
as a first step rather than a back-
stop. While this might not avoid
the need for continuing policing, it
would solve the cultural problem.
A split may make it less likely
that banks need to be rescued with
taxpayer money. But, as the report
observes, it will not rid us of sys-
temically significant banks. The
authorities need the confidence
and tools to take apart a big loss-
making bank. This still remains
some way off.
Copper consumers cannot plan while
financial sector is distorting the price
From Mr Simon Hunt.
Sir, All copper consumers know
that the officially reported copper
price bears no resemblance to the
real activities of the metal as an
industrial material. The price is
being distorted by the activities of
the financial community by buying
copper and largely warehousing it
outside the reporting system. Why
then are there a reputed 1m tonnes
plus of copper cathode sitting in
bonded warehouses in China?
By approving JPMorgans copper
exchange traded fund (report,
December 18), the Securities and
Exchange Commission has sided
with the financial community at the
expense of industry. While the
tonnages to be held by the bank and
with the probable approval of
BlackRocks copper ETF are in
themselves not large, they can have
a significant impact on prices at the
margin.
The real issue is this: increasingly,
copper has become an intrinsic part
of the money game, just another unit
to securitise regardless of the impact
on industry. Copper consumers now
see even more clearly the demise of
copper as an industrial metal. The
metal has lost at least 3m tonnes to
substitution in all its forms over the
last seven years. That figure risks
getting even larger over the next
seven years, not just due to
traditional substitution but to the
introduction of new technology.
Copper consumers cannot plan their
future on the whims of the financial
sector. Globally, including China,
they are accelerating their efforts to
design copper out of their systems.
Another financial bubble is being
built around copper with perhaps
some 5m tonnes being held outside
the reporting system. This bubble
like all others will burst one day.

From Mr Randall Greene.
Sir, As a Life Member of the
National Rifle Association, Id
hazard the guess that the
organisation was not immediate in
its response to the tragedy in
Newtown, Connecticut, in an attempt
to allow space for grief and the
gathering of facts a space which,
as one can read in the events of this
past week, is of little concern to
politicians.
While some enjoy target-shooting
with military-style weapons as sport,
a basic tenet of the American psyche
is that, when pressed to the extreme,
the assurance of domestic security is
in the hands of its citizenry not
the government. Dialling 911 may
catch the culprit, but its unlikely to
prevent the crime.

West and east, north and south,
democratic and authoritarian the
biggest threat to incumbent leaders
flows from a growing resentment
about unfairness. In advanced
economies, the perception (and often
the reality) is that the wealthy have
grabbed all the gains of globalisation
while the rest have been handed the
burden of austerity. If there was a
single spark for the uprisings in the
Middle East it came from popular
rage at corruption at every level of
society. Mr Xi has warned that graft
could overturn the rule of Chinas
Communist party. He is right. No
one expects an egalitarian utopia,
but middle classes old and new are
looking with some menace at the
privileges of the 1 per cent.

It is no time to give up on economic liberalism
Tony Blair and Bill Clinton may
have come from a different end of
the political spectrum, they made no
attempt to reverse course. The
traumatic event was of course the
financial crisis that broke out in
2007-08 and administered a fatal blow
to economic liberalism.
Or did it? As far as normal goods
and services are concerned, there is
still a great deal to be said for giving
a leading role to prices and profits.
But for financial markets economic
liberalism, at least in the form we
have known it, has proved fatally
flawed. The tendency of capitalist
economies to boom and bust is
intimately connected with that
failure. As almost every government
and central bank is committed to its
reform, I would for the present
concentrate on other aspects.
The basic case for competitive
markets is, first, that they provide
consumers with what they wish to
have rather than with what some
authority thinks would be good for
them. Second, they provide some
guidance on how goods and services
should be produced. It would not
have been sensible to build the Great
Wall of China with 21st-century
electronic equipment when there
were millions of underemployed
labourers ready to hand. Thirdly,
allowing innovators to keep some of
the fruits of their activities may
provide some incentive to progress.
In a priori theory, competitive
markets do not have to be capitalist
ones. There have been numerous
blueprints, from market economies
based on state ownership to workers
co-operatives. But they have not
really got off the ground.
An example of misunderstanding is
a book that appeared this year with
the strange title Masters of the
Universe by Daniel Stedman Jones. It
was about free-market economists,
such as Friedrich Hayek and Milton
Friedman and their supposedly
malign influence over governments.
It is very thorough, honest according
to its lights, but thoroughly
misleading. For the thinkers in
question are not just politicians in
disguise. So far as they had an
overriding policy or agenda, it was to
reduce the influence of coercion in
human affairs. What they certainly
did not wish to do was to rule the
universe either directly or through
their political disciples.
There are, of course, numerous
examples of market failures. There
are the famous externalities.
Factories do not have to pay for the
damage caused by smoking
chimneys. Owners of smart front
gardens receive no benefit from the
enjoyment conferred on passers-by.
There is also always the
temptation of successful capitalists to
try to become monopolists. There are
correctives using markets and prices.
Examples range from the auctioning
of planning permits to anti-cartel
legislation. Free trade is often the
most effective corrective. Above all,
however, critics of market failures
are offset by political failures.
Governments often have neither the
incentive nor the knowledge to
impose effective correctives.
There have been
blueprints for economies
from state ownership to
workers cooperatives.

Shale gas exports will benefit America and its allies
America has sufficient resources
available to satisfy domestic needs
for more than 90 years.
America could now become a net
exporter of liquefied natural gas by
2016. Yet this prospect has aroused
concern among some US industrial
energy users, who are eager to retain
the competitive advantage they
currently enjoy from low energy
prices. The fear is that LNG exports
would lead to higher natural gas
prices in the US, even though
shipping and liquefaction costs mean
foreign consumers would always pay
more than domestic buyers. Some in
US industry are now opposed to any
LNG exports at all.
We believe, however, that LNG
exports can buttress US geopolitical
leadership and trade, while at the
same time continuing to support low
domestic natural gas prices and a
renaissance in domestic
manufacturing. In addition LNG
exports offer the potential for lower
global carbon emissions.
The US Department of Energy has
confirmed this view in a new report
examining the wisdom of exporting
LNG. The report, which echoes
many other studies, concludes that
exports would broadly benefit the
US economy with little impact on
domestic natural gas prices. It states
that LNG exports could generate up
to $47bn in new economic activity in
the US by 2020. The more gas
exported, the greater the benefits to
the US, the report concluded.
The reason is simple. Today much
natural gas is flared or shut in
because there is not a domestic
market for the gas produced as a
byproduct of exploration and
production of liquid hydrocarbons.
By capturing this lost natural gas for
export, the US would ultimately
reduce price volatility, bolster its
long-term reserves and enable its
natural gas sector to reach its
growth potential.
Meanwhile by becoming an
exporter, the US would fill a vital
role for its allies in Europe and Asia,
many of which are dangerously
dependent for natural gas on foreign
powers frequently hostile to US
interests. Reliance on Russian gas in
Ukraine and the EU would be likely
to diminish, for example.
Asian demand for natural gas is
growing rapidly. In the wake of the
Fukushima disaster, the need for
LNG in Japan, already the worlds
largest market has grown
considerably. China and India, both
heavily dependent on coal to meet
their energy needs, are looking to
capitalise on their own shale
formations but will not be able to
move swiftly enough to meet near-
term demand.
The environmental considerations
of these developments are also
important for US policy. Burning
natural gas to generate power
creates 50 per cent fewer carbon
emissions than burning coal. In the
US carbon emissions fell to 1992
levels in the first quarter of 2012,
owing mainly to a transition from
coal to gas. Many developing nations,
such as China and India, would like
to follow suit but lack access to the
resource. Exports from the US would
help to support this transition to
cleaner fuels.
Armed with its new report, as well
as mounting data that affirm the
benefits of natural gas exports, the
DoE should approve the applications
pending for LNG export terminals.
To date, Sabine Pass in Louisiana is
the only terminal to receive DoE
approval. Ultimately the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission will
decide which projects are technically
viable and investors will decide
whether to provide capital, but more
green lights from the DoE would
give US trade partners confidence to
adopt natural gas in lieu of higher
emitting fuels. It would also affirm
Americas commitment to free trade.
After decades of energy insecurity,
the US has abundant domestic
resources to serve its own natural
gas needs today and far into the
future. Natural gas exports cannot
revive the US economy alone but
they can help lead us toward a more
robust energy future, a worthy and
achievable goal.

T
his is a good time to ask what
is left of an outlook known to
its enemies as neoliberalism
and by at least some of its friends as
just economic liberalism. One cannot
be too careful in choice of wording.
For neoliberalism was originally the
self-chosen name for a group formed
just before the second world war
around the US commentator Walter
Lippmann and which advocated,
among other things, making greater
use of market forces in economic
policy. It has only more recently
acquired pejorative associations.
Roughly speaking, the quarter
century after 1945 was not a
promising time for economic
liberalism except perhaps in West
Germany where Ludwig Erhard was
the guiding spirit of the so-called
economic miracle. The tide turned
towards economic liberalism in the
last quarter of the century,
symbolised by the leadership of
Ronald Reagan and Margaret
Thatcher in the 1980s. The approach
lingered on even after the departure
of these charismatic leaders. While
influence has been reduced to
obstructionism at the UN. Israel is
beginning to look very much alone.
Do something
The most frequently forgotten lesson
of politics is that doing nothing is a
policy choice and one that can be
every bit as risky as being decisive.
Frances President Franois Hollande
is among those who would do well to
recognise the dangers of inaction. My
friends in Paris tell me that the
president is fully apprised of the
urgent need to restore economic
competitiveness in order to avoid the
fate of some of Frances eurozone
partners. So far, however, Mr
Hollande has been content to do not
very much. Change forced by a crisis
of confidence in the markets would
be altogether more painful for the
president and for French voters.
There is a broader lesson here for
the eurozone. Angela Merkel may
have emerged as Europes
undisputed leader, but her
obsessively cautious approach to the
euro crisis has come with a sizeable
price tag. If the currency now looks
safe, it is because of the activism
of the European Central Banks
Mario Draghi. The danger is that
Mr Draghis audacity has encouraged
governments creditors and debtors
alike to put off again the
uncomfortable choices needed to
ensure sustained recovery.
Walk and . . .
Too many leaders think they can do
only one thing at once. They
succumb to the politics of either/or.
It should be both/and. The message
from Washington is that Mr Obama
has set the rebuilding of America
as the ambition for his second term.
Intractable foreign-policy issues
most obviously the stand-off between
Israel and the Palestinians are
destined to remain on the back
burner. Didnt someone once say a
US president should be able to walk
and chew gum at the same time?
New Year resolutions are made to
be broken. So politicians should
spare us the customary cascade of
empty promises on January 1. There
is no harm, though, in drawing
lessons from experience. In this
spirit, here are a few rules of the
road political leaders might usefully
ponder as they map a route for 2013.
Make friends and . . .
Americas wars in Iraq and
Afghanistan have testified eloquently
to the limits of hard power. Military
muscle will always matter, but in a
world tightly threaded by economic
interdependence, making friends and
influencing people is every bit as
important.
Expectations are that Xi Jinping
will take a harder line than the
departing Hu Jintao in asserting
Chinese power. Tensions between
Beijing and its neighbours over
conflicting claims in the South and
East China Seas are unlikely to be
eased by the election in Japan of the
more nationalist government of
Shinzo Abe.
Mr Xi, however, might reflect on
what has happened since China cast
aside Deng Xiaopings bide-your-time
approach to international relations.
Chinas neighbours have turned
against it and President Barack
Obamas pivot has seen Americas
return as a Pacific power. China
cannot wage economic war against
Japan without significant cost to
itself. Even great powers need allies.
Elsewhere, Russias Vladimir Putin
and Israels Benjamin Netanyahu
have often seemed to exult in
isolation. The result? Russias global
Getting the economy right is going
to be at the top of every leaders
attention. The reality, though, is
that the world will not stop to allow
Mr Obama to tend to Americas
domestic challenges. For one thing,
Mr Netanyahu looks pretty much
determined to pull the US into
another Middle East war this time
against Iran. For another, much as it
would sometimes like things to be
otherwise, the US remains the
indispensable power. The unipolar
moment may have passed, but there
are few serious problems around the
world that can be solved without US
engagement.
Think ahead
Heres one for David Cameron,
Britains prime minister. The hapless
Mr Cameron has made the mistake
of failing to recognise that what
might seem clever tactics often drive
politicians into strategic cul-de-sacs.
After a year spent appeasing and
occasionally pleasing the hardline
eurosceptics in his Conservative
party, he has suddenly woken up to
the fact that Britain is heading for
the exit of the EU.
I do not think that this was Mr
Camerons aim. But casual promises
to the eurosceptics that he can
secure a new settlement allowing
Britain to pick and choose in its
relationship with the bloc have
Export permits would
give US trade partners
confidence to adopt
natural gas in lieu of
higher emitting fuels
The biggest flaw in market
liberalism is in the distribution of
income and wealth. For a long time
the degree of concentration
fluctuated around a fairly stable rate.
But in the past two or three decades
it has increased markedly, making it
much more difficult for supporters of
capitalism to argue that a rising tide
floats all boats. We could live with
this situation in which the top 1 per
cent of US families owned 7-8 per
cent of US incomes, as in the early
1980s, but hardly when they are
getting 18 per cent as they are said
to do now. The respectable academic
response is to try to correct the
situation through the tax and social
security systems. But this may be
more difficult in a world struggling
to achieve genuine mobility of labour
where emigrants could overwhelm
the redistributive apparatus.
This has not happened yet. But we
need to prepare. The hard truth is
that tensions can develop between
free migration and other economic
freedoms. But for all the looming
problems, it is still untrue that the
nanny state knows best.

I
f theres a bright spot in the
gloomy recent history of the US
economy, it is the expansion of
our energy sector. A plentiful and
inexpensive supply of natural gas
from shale rock has led to cheaper
electricity for consumers and
industry, the revival of US
manufacturing and greater US
energy independence.
A decade ago, natural gas
producers worried that Americas
supply was running dangerously low
and imports would be the nations
only salvation. No more.
Thanks to new drilling
technologies and an abundance of
shale gas, US proven natural gas
reserves surpassed 300tn cubic feet
in 2010, and technically recoverable
natural gas is estimated to exceed
2,200tcf, according to the Energy
Information Administration. This
represents an increase of 61 per cent

T
he trade is known as the
widow-maker because it has
been financially fatal for so
long. Generations of gunslinger
macro traders have met their
nemesis by shorting Japanese
government bonds. They walk in
cool and confident, armed with
PowerPoint presentations. They leave
town horizontal, soaked in red ink.
The rationale was always
compelling why should Japan have
such absurdly low bond yields when
its debt to gross domestic product
ratio is among the highest in the
world, government spending is
roughly twice tax revenues and the
population is rapidly ageing? Yet
the result was always the same.
At whatever yield the call was made
3 per cent in 1996, 2 per cent in
2002, 1 per cent in 2011 it always
fell further, and the bet lost money.
Back in the day a neophyte
investment analyst was sometimes
dispatched to the trading desk to
demand an explanation. The
standard response was a sarcastic
more buyers than sellers.
That is the best explanation of
what has been going on in the
Japanese bond market for the past
15 years. It also describes what has
been happening in global bond
markets since 2008, when the world
started turning Japanese.
Private sector deleveraging,
distrust of risk assets, loss of faith
in growth, broken banks these
have all contributed to the surge in
demand for government paper.
The eurozone turmoil appeared to
offer an alternative narrative that
excess debt led to sovereign debt
crises but this was illusory since
Greece, Spain and the others are not
sovereigns. Wherever governments
have retained control over their
currency, markets have shrugged
off deficits, rating downgrades and
the prognostications of doomsters.
Following the Japanese template,
bond yields have fallen even as debt
levels have risen. This has been so
in the developed world and in the
developing world; in countries that
have current-account surpluses such
as Germany, and those perpetually
in deficit such as the US and UK.
In reality, bond markets are
reflecting economic fundamentals.
Risk-free rates should approximate
nominal GDP growth, which has
been in sharp decline globally.
With governments caught between
stimulus and austerity, and
monetary policy achieving little
traction, bonds have looked the
safest bet.
The great investment question for
2013 is whether change is in the air
and the deflation trade is over.
In Japan, the election victory of
Shinzo Abe means the last bastion
of hard money has fallen. The next
governor of the Bank of Japan, to be
appointed in the spring, will be a
dove. A shift towards inflation
targeting is likely. There will be less
enthusiasm for driving the economy
off a fiscal cliff, as Yoshihiko Noda,
the outgoing prime minister, risked
with planned tax rises.
Globally, the move to soft money
is gathering impetus as seen in the
US Federal Reserves move to tie
monetary policy to unemployment
and by favourable talk of nominal
GDP targeting by the Bank of
Englands governor-designate.
Will this be enough to change the
more buyers than sellers
paradigm? In the first instance,
probably not greater central bank
activism will mean greater purchases
of government bonds by those banks
in the short term.
But in the medium term it is likely
that governments will succeed in
generating higher inflationary
expectations. The aftermath of the
global financial crisis shows that
once radical options can quickly
become mainstream policies. If
current policies do not produce
results, new ideas are waiting in the
wings such as the outright
cancellation of bonds held on central
bank balance sheets.
In fact, consecutive waves of
quantitative easing have already
succeeded in lifting inflationary
expectations as measured by the
bond markets break-even rates.
The US rate has risen from negative
in the aftermath of the Lehman
shock to the average levels of 2000 to
2008. Even in Japan, five-year
inflationary expectations have risen
well above the bond yield. Almost
everywhere, investors in government
bonds are facing negative real yields
an unnatural and combustible
situation. In Japan this could be the
widow-makers last ride. If so, the
repercussions will be felt more
widely. World bond markets have
had it too good for too long.

FINANCIAL TIMES FRIDAY DECEMBER 21 2012
Apple has come up with its
first redesign of the iMac in
three years as it faces
increasing competition in
this hottest of categories
the allinone PC.
In just three examples I
reviewed recently, Lenovos
A720 reset the bar for
thinness and versatility its
stand will lie flat or turn the
monitor into an easel;
Sonys Vaio Tap 20 has a
touchscreen and internal
battery that allow it to be
carried around like an
oversized tablet; and
HewlettPackards
SpectreONE competes with
the iMac on classy looks
and is only 1.15cm thick.
Apple does not believe
consumers want to use
touchscreens on laptops
and PCs, nor does it favour
versions that transform into
different devices, so the
new iMac stands up straight
and leaves touch gestures
to its excellent Magic
Trackpad accessory.
The most obvious
improvements are a thinner,
lighter design and a
gorgeous screen in either
21.5in (from $1,299, 1,099
in the UK) or 27in (from
$1,799, 1,499) sizes.
The new iMac is 80 per
cent thinner than its
predecessor, according to
Apple, and only 5mm thick
at its edges. However, the
bowed back thickens to
around 4cm in the middle.
To achieve its slimmer
figure, Apple has abandoned
a DVD and CD slot. This
may be the way things are
heading as we use memory
Chris Nuttall picks his favourite
from the crop of new apps
What it is: The Orchestra for iPad
($13.99, 9.99)
Why you should try it: Apple has reenabled gifting of
apps in iTunes just in time for the holidays and the
release of The Orchestra, another classic from Touch
Press. Extracts from composers ranging from Beethoven
to Stravinsky are played by the Philharmonia Orchestra.
You can watch these on splitscreen video, bring up a
synchronised score and touch a map of the orchestra
to hear particular sections playing.

There is only one winner
for each series of The Great
British Bake Off, one
amateur baker who is
crowned Britains best. This
year it was 23-year-old law
graduate John Whaite who
clinched the final of the
television show by
hairdrying his chocolate-
iced cake for a high shine.
He promptly signed a book
deal with Headline and
John Whaite Bakes will
appear early next year.
But Mr Whaite will not
be the only one to enjoy a
slice of success. The hit
BBC2 TV programme is
having a benevolent
economic effect far beyond
the onscreen participants.
[If I wanted to make] a
couple of hundred quid a
month as spending money
it would be fine, she says.
She has stopped the classes
to pursue more lucrative
roles with Sainsbury and
QVC. She also produced an
ebook, that went straight to
the top of the Kindle
downloads for baking.
And Edd Kimber, self-
styled as the boy who
bakes and the first winner
of GBBO back in 2010, says
he definitely struggled
financially for the first year
following his win. Like Mr
Whaite he was offered a
book deal and he published
his second title this
September. He has also
launched the Eddibles
Bakery stall on Maltby
Street market in south
London. I made a living
this year, Mr Kimber says.
Nevertheless, its better
than his old job as a bank
clerk: I like the fact that I
do something I love, and I
have a career from it.
The last word
A TVgenerated
craze for cooking
is inspiring new
ventures, writes
Natalie Whittle
The shows experts,
cookery doyenne Mary
Berry and professional
baker Paul Hollywood,
have felt the baking
bounce keenly. After
GBBO finished in October,
Mr Hollywoods book How
to Bake saw a threefold
increase in sales on
Amazon. Ms Berry saw a
fivefold Amazon sales
increase for her 2009 book
Mary Berrys Baking Bible
from when the latest series
started in August.
If baking is an inherently
domestic art, and the
recession a period when
people stay at home to
watch TV and/or make
cakes, bread and pies,
there is some logic to this
trend. Trade show
organiser Luke Collings
certainly saw the broader
potential of bakings new
popularity: My wife was
very much into the Bake
Off and it made me wonder
if there would be demand
[for a show]. He lined up
brand featured in GBBO)
food mixers every hour
before Christmas.
At John Lewis, sales of
food mixers are up 62 per
cent and demand for bread-
makers up 29 per cent.
Silicone bakeware sales
have increased 126 per cent
year on year. Marks and
British stayathome economy helps baking businesses rise
sponsors and booked Ms
Berry and Mr Hollywood to
make appearances. The
Cake & Bake Show at
Earls Court Exhibition
Centre drew 21,000 visitors,
with a Manchester date set
for next year and a second
London show. Mr Collings
says he covered costs this
year but forecasts a profit
for 2013, and has hopes for
a supermarket tie-in.
The baking bounce sends
people shopping in all sorts
of ways: a Zara bomber
jacket worn by Ms Berry
in one episode sold out and
baking equipment sales
have increased. In one show
of this series, contestants
were asked to build show-
stopping gingerbread
edifices (Mr Whaite
recreated Romes coliseum).
In the following days,
Selfridges in London saw a
jump in sales of gingerbread
house kits and year on
year sales rose 26 per cent.
The store also estimates it
will sell 20 KitchenAid (a
Spencer, Debenhams and
J Sainsbury have reported
similar rises.
There has also been a
flurry of classes in baking
skills. Le Cordon Bleu, the
classic cookery school
brand, has opened a
flagship site in London and
French baker Richard
Bertinet has expanded his
bread-making school with a
bakery shop in Bath.
But bakery business
founders beware: this is an
area where the facilities
available dictate profit, as
Holly Bell, a GBBO runner-
up in 2011 learnt. Her
former milieu was
advertising, so Ms Bell
recognised her own profile
would not be enough to sell
classes. I knew I had to
use the Bake Off brand to
leverage the business, she
says. Demand was strong
and immediate; her weekly
cake-decorating classes were
full. But, as she rented
kitchen space to teach, it
was hard to make money.
New iMac and
HPs Envy printer
make dream team
Sweet success: business is
brisk for baking products
Apple iMac

There are three classics on offer for the holidays this


week as Apple presents an improved version of its all
inone PC style leader, the iMac, and HewlettPackard
introduces an allinone printer that matches Apples
products for cool design. For classical music lovers
with iPads, The Orchestra app makes an excellent gift.
HP Envy 120e

Apple no longer makes


printers, but if it did they
might look something like
HewlettPackards $250
(212) Envy 120e allinone
inkjet.
This smooth pianoblack
box takes away all the
ugliness of paper feeds and
I was able to slide it
unobtrusively into our
entertainment centre, as a
wirelessly connected central
printing option for the
family.
Press the On button on
the front panel and the
printer unfolds before your
eyes, with the panel lifting
outward and up to a
horizontal position, a 4.3in
colour touchscreen coming
to life and paper supports
emerging from the interior.
For scanning and copying,
there is a seethrough panel
display, featuring a short, light-
hearted, movie of Minnie Mouse
encountering cartoon versions of fash-
ions best-known faces.
The windows are our most
involved project of the season. Conse-
quently, they receive proportionally
the largest budget, Mr Lee says.
Retailers remain tight-lipped on
costs, but analysts estimate that a
department store such as Barneys
makes about 72 window changes per
year, with a spend of between $20,000
and $100,000 per display.
Holiday budgets for the worlds top
department stores will run into the
hundreds of thousands, even millions
of dollars many spend more on that
one, six-week period than they will for
six or seven months of the entire
year, says Mr Burke.
In London, Harrods also worked
with Disney to create Once upon a
Dream, a 10-piece collection of
dresses inspired by Disney princesses
created by designers such as Versace,
Valentino and Oscar de la Renta.
Windows are a true reflection of
your brand and the very best product
you have to offer, says Mark Briggs,
Harrods store image director. We
loved the ideas of combining luxury
and fashion with fantasy and nostal-
gia, so carried the Disney theme into
and throughout the store to maximise
commercial opportunity, with a Dis-
ney caf and 7,000 square foot Disney
boutique.
Others favour a more timeless
appeal. Bergdorf Goodman charted
Shops wage winter window war
component, increasing a brands
online profile and exposure.
Both Selfridges and Bergdorf Good-
man have deployed multi-platform
social media campaigns this year with
behind-the-scenes footage, audio tours
and competitions on the Instagram
photo sharing site, while some of the
displays are accessible online.
While the video for our campaign
this year was conceived as the anchor
for the window display, the intention
was also to reach millions of consum-
ers via the web, not just those on
Madison Avenue, says Mr Lee.
With online shopping accounting
for about 10 per cent of annual holi-
day sales, according to ShopperTrak,
stores need to defend market share
both off and online from new guard
internet rivals such as FarFetch and
Net-a-Porter.
M
ediator Imagine Fashion,
launched in early 2011, is
a website designed to
bridge the gap between
retail and etail by allowing users to
explore the fashion industrys most
exquisite window displays before
clicking through to buy the products
online. The website takes a cut of any
sales made.
A single location will only ever
generate a capped amount of localised
traffic but online the potential
is limitless, says founder Amber Gor-
don.
Others in the industry remain more
traditional in approach. Tiffany & Co
focused its 260-store global campaign
Home for the Holidays on hand-
made miniature recreations of richly
decorated apartments on New Yorks
Upper East Side. These windows are
not connected to any online shopping,
they are simply meant to amuse, says
Richard Moore, vice-president of vis-
ual merchandising.
Tis the season to give and be
merry, after all, so ultimately we see
the displays as our way of giving cus-
tomers and passers-by something
back in return, he says.
F
or December shoppers, a
glimpse of the window dis-
plays put on by the worlds
most famous department
stores is as much a part of the festive
experience as hanging decorations on
the tree. For retailers, this long-cher-
ished tradition is also significant
although for different reasons.
Competition between department
stores and prestige brands becomes
absolutely cut-throat at this time of
year, says Robert Burke, a leading
luxury retail consultant and former
senior vice-president of fashion and
public relations for Bergdorf Good-
man, the US luxury department store.
While Christmas windows are the
pinnacle of self-expressive and crea-
tive display for stores, crucially they
also drive foot traffic and traffic
drives sales. They may look frivolous,
but windows are tactics deployed in a
serious turf war between rivals chas-
ing patrons and profits they are a
big business.
As consumer spending has slowed,
many luxury brands and shops have
invested heavily in glossy visual and
floor campaigns to retain the custom
of an increasingly tough crowd.
According to ShopperTrak, a lead-
ing provider of footfall monitoring
technology, US consumers were less
active this December than last year,
with foot traffic down 0.7 per cent and
sales down 1.5 per cent on 2011.
Nevertheless, the stakes are still
high, with the week of December 16
expected to have been the biggest ret-
ail sales week of the year, when mil-
lions of shoppers take to the streets.
The fourth quarter represents the
most significant portion of sales for
the year, so a strong holiday cam-
paign can help ensure you end on a
positive note, explains Mark Lee,
chief executive of Barneys New York,
the high-end department store.
This year, Barneys collaborated
with Disney on an Electric Holiday

the glamorous brilliance of the Holly-
wood Jazz Age this year by packing
its Fifth Avenue windows with show-
girls, performing poodles and all-girl
orchestras dressed in beautiful con-
temporary designs.
At their best, windows should tran-
scend their commercial purpose and
become dream machines, fashion the-
atre, entertainment and year-end festi-
vals, says Linda Fargo, the stores
senior vice-president. What we inten-
tionally steer clear of are themes that
are futuristic, ironic, too highbrow or
too cool. We think of Bergdorfs as a
warm store, and prefer to keep the
tone inviting and exceptional.
Every element of the Bergdorf set
design is handcrafted by local artists
a time-intensive process that often
takes about nine months.
At Selfridges, the British depart-
ment store, preproduction takes a
year from idea to installation, with
a team that swells from nine to 100
in the run-up to the windows unveil-
ing in November. The costs are vast,
yet store director Alannah Weston
says holiday windows are the
most important advertising outlet for
her brand.
Our windows attract an influx of
both British and international shop-
pers who descend on stores quite liter-
ally just for Christmas shopping. And
we always find that products dis-
played in the windows at Christmas
do very well.
Some holiday windows are starting
to include a strong digital marketing
USB sticks or download our
media over the internet, but
the move could be too soon
for some users. Apple
provided me with a $79
Superdrive external DVD
drive, however, which did
not detract from the
minimalist aesthetics of the
iMac, although it lacks
Bluray compatibility.
The display module has
been fused with its glass
screen in the new model.
Eliminating the gap and
using a new coating means
a 75 per cent reduction in
reflection and an impression
that the vibrant Full HD
images are almost painted
on top of the screen.
Other features include a
720p HD webcam, dual
microphones, four USB 3.0
ports and an SD memory
card slot. Stereo sound has
been improved with more
space inside for the
speakers.
The iMac starts with a
generous 8Gb of memory;
but if you want more you
will have to take the smaller
21.5in model back to the
store DIY upgrades are
out because of the tightly
packed components within.
There is also an option
for a Fusion Drive, a new
concept from Apple that
prioritises your mostused
data and programs on a
lightningfast 128Gb solid
state drive, with a regular
hard drive providing the
bulk of storage. It made my
machine feel very
responsive.
These innovations and the
beautiful design mean the
iMac maintains a distinctive
appeal despite rivals going
allin on allinones.

becomes a sort of love match. Zen
Buddyism. Do you want me to call

masquerade, a giant game of lets

You risk death by a surfeit of
magic realism while watching
Midnights Children (opening in the
UK on Wednesday). Of the half dozen
ways Salman Rushdies Booker Prize-
winning social-historical-fantastical
novel could have been brought to the
screen, director Deepa Mehta and
Rushdie himself, screenwriting, pick
probably the worst.
Contemporary Indian history,
enriched with fable and allegory,
can be packed into a novel, albeit a
mega-novel, if the author/narrators
personality is there (it was) to style
or singularise the plenitude. But
cinema is insistently real unless
counteracted by the insistently,
hyper-really imaginative. A film that
needed a Fellini, or Life of Pis Ang
Lee, instead whirls pedestrianly,
literalistically, through birth, sex,
Indian independence, swapped babies,
sorcerers abductions, Mrs Gandhis
emergency, until we want to say Stop
the whirl, I want to get off. Rushdies
own voice, delivering
gobbets of the novel,
proves another bad choice.
Its too wry, professorial,
media-familiar: all we see is
the hero of a hundred chat shows
with his beady charm. Everything
here needed enriching, amping up,
amplifying out. Less isnt always
more; sometimes more is more.
Ang Lees Life of Pi is an eye-
boggling demonstration of the
virtuosities available to the poetically
inventive film-maker in 2012 AD
(Anno Digitale). I kept thinking of
the TV Superman series and its
famous old voice intro. Is Lees film a
fable? Is it an adventure? No, its a
super-movie. Faster than a speeding
ballet, leaping tall decades at a single
bound, this action fantasy from Yann
Martels 2001 Booker Prize-winning
novel says a final goodbye to pre-
digital, pre-diluvian 3D.
Every filmgoer will re-become a
child as he/she watches the
shipwrecked Indian boy (played by
vivid newcomer Suraj Sharma)
grapple with adversity storms,
sharks, a fusillade of flying fish as
he is cast away at sea accompanied
by a tiger from his dads zoo-in-
transit. The other human characters,
including a blink-and-you-miss-him
Grard Depardieu as the ships cook,
are swiftly dispatched to Davy
Joness locker; we dont need them.

lifeboats initial bestiary includes a
zebra, orang-utan and hyena
(terrifying), all digitised in part or
whole, all in our faces or at our
throats whenever Lee commands and
the 3D specs obey.
The digi-tiger is a dazzler, expert,
seamless, all-expressive: a screen tour

virtuosity as the puppeteered stage

glowing back at the moon and a

placid, horizonless. Sometimes boat
and boy seem suspended in a

making as ensorcelling as any we
have seen since Powells The Thief of
Baghdad, another tale of an Indian
boy, a world of magic, and
showdowns with the elemental.
West Memphis, a documentary
about an unresolved murder case,
was press-shown on the morning of
the day news broke of the
Connecticut school killings.
Coincidence? Or spooky cinematic
karma? The cases three boy victims,
also primary school age, were also
brutally and unfathomably murdered.
Americas violent underside Mr
Hyde to the Dr Jekyll of its
democratic freedom never changes.
The killings took place in 1994
Arkansas and delivered three teenage
suspects to Death Row, convicted of
Satanic homicides. That
interpretation was based on the
sexual mutilation of the bodies. The
trio of defendants were convicted on
slim evidence but with the
confession, coaxed by police, of the
most mentally challenged.
Amy Bergs enthralling film, co-
financed and initiated by no less than
Peter Hobbit Jackson, arrives 18 years
and three documentaries later. The
Paradise Lost triptych, made between
1996 and 2011 by two directors of
whom one, Joe Berlinger, went on to
Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2, was
full of florid speculation reinforcing
notions of a cultist killing. Paradise
Lost 3: Purgatory, though, began the
climbdown into fact and followed
several routes taken also by Berg and
Jackson. With painstaking detective
work and deep-pocket recruitment of
witnesses (top forensic experts, top
attorneys), enough evidence was
culled to help free the accused
though not without some late-hour
plea-bargaining stipulated by the
Arkansas courts.
Astonishingly the film-makers also
shine a Klieg light on the likely
murderer, still free and likely to
remain so, despite damning DNA
evidence. Incredulously we watch
courtroom footage of this man
resisting grillings which would
barbecue a lesser liar. The movies
conclusion? In America death is
cheap and justice expensive. Only the
brave or quixotic spend their lives
trying to bring the two things closer
together.
In a poll on the hundred things we
least need from Hollywood a comedy
about an all-female a cappella group
might come first. Pitch Perfect,
though, is very funny: the Spinal Tap
of unaccompanied singing. Two teams
from the same fictive university go
all the way to Lincoln Centers
national contest final. Its the girls
who take centre screen, desperate to
restore their primacy after a victory-
robbing mishap cue flashback the
year before. (You have heard of
projectile vomiting; this is the Polaris
version.) The boys team does
everything borderline-legal to
outsmart them.
Both teams are led at the finish by
sceptics-turned-songsters. Anna
Kendrick (Up In the Air) is the
girls take-charge ingnue,
scrapping their flight
attendant costumes and
Kremlin parade choreography.
Skylar Astin for the boys decides
a cappella doesnt have to be the
organised nerd singing he called
it in scene one. (But it still
essentially is: no joke otherwise.)

Christmas. Presently, she freezes to
death and flies to heaven.
By her own estimation, Meow
Meow is a post-post-modern diva
who deals in kamikaze cabaret.
She is no waif. Joan of Arc is
flaming in her head beside
naughty pyromaniac children,
witches at the stake, global
warming and the Catherine wheel.
Meow is fiercely undomesticated and
her Little Match Girl, born in
Melbournes Malthouse Theatre, is a
bold step beyond Andersens
agit-prop fairy tale, as she labels it.
Were going to break the cycle
of world hunger and child poverty,
the cabaret artist purrs. She sets
about her task with the skittish
energy of a rogue firework. Meow is
not inhibited by the natural
boundaries presented by a stage.
Frequently she invades the
auditorium, recruiting obedient
people rub each other, rub me!
with frenetic zeal. Her social
message, condensed into the
injunction be careful with each
other, pops up in the course of
16 numbers Wagner, Purcell,
Porter, Coward and is garnished
with tutus, artificial chaos and a
huge chandelier (not explained). If
the menu of destitution and death
looks grisly, the presentation is
vibrantly upbeat.
Meow is eccentric, self-deprecating
and marvellously unafraid to look
ugly; she is imaginative and tasteful
(unlike Andersen, she expunges
sentimentality); her voice can sound
haunting or huskily lusty. But her
greatest gift is to seem so vividly
alive. Her stage presence is an
urgent fact that demands attention.
Beside Meow, most performers (not
least, her supporting artist, Chris
Ryan) feel airbrushed.
The main problem is one of
balance. Meow claims that thousands
of children will sleep on Britains
streets tonight. That is the meat of
her festive feast, but the trimmings
frothy cabaret japes upstage it.
The pill is sweetened. If it were too
bitter too serious audiences
used to vapid winter diets of
pantomimes and West End musicals
might just gag.
Other problems are technical.
Cabaret feeds on fumes and sweat
and Queen Elizabeth Hall is
relentlessly airy. The set is
irrelevant, the plot is missing and
bits of the script drag. In such
conditions, Meow can sputter, fizz
and flare, but not combust. It is a
good show, but a better one lurks
behind it.

Alexander Gilmour
Konk Pack are a rip-roaring trio of
free improvisers whose in-the-
moment collisions deliver the thrust
of electronics with the confidence of
a long-term relationship they
played their first gig in 1997 and
have been touring ever since. The
electronica is more gadgets and
buttons than laptop and mouse, and
its industrial soundscapes have a
surprisingly warm-hearted core.
A seated Tim Hodgkinson conjures
dissonance from a wired-up lap
steel guitar and Thomas Lehn
dispatches fusillades of beeps from
analogue synth hes a physical
player who rolls and sways with
the mood. And for contrast and
balance, Roger Turner plays drums
with a strong, though somewhat
fractured, sense of time.
The methods and pulse are those
of free jazz, but here the ebb-and-
flow dynamics are magnified to
extremes. Both through-improvised
sets had quiet beginnings, roaring
climaxes and a pin-drop finish. And
both garnished instrumental
orthodoxy with scrapes, scratches
and clatters. Turner used four-stick
technique to produce a scampering
rattle and bowed a chunk of metal
for a finger-scraping screech.
Hodgkinson assaulted his lap steel
guitar with bottleneck, violin bow
and plastic comb the sounds were
raw, harsh and percussive, often
tweaked or distorted into an
amplified howl.
The first set opened with a
synthesised drone and the ponderous
throb of a church organ pedal. There
were fragments of drums and the
sporadic click of a heftily plucked
lap steel guitar. Tension grew,
with short press rolls and mighty
thumps, lightning-fast scampers and
pings bouncing across the stage
against a howl of white noise and
thrashing drums.
There were intense duets with
third party support, high-point
extremes, when all spoke as one,
and times when each musician
seemed out on a limb. And for
every furore there was a patch of
uneasy calm. The range was
extraordinary and, over two sets,
their internal coherence, though
abstract, effervesced with
intelligence.
The first set ended with a cymbal
hissing gradually into silence; the
earthier second set faded with a
spacious, barely perceptible pulse.
It gained accompaniment from a
clink of bottles from the bar at the
back. I think theyre moving the
bar, quipped Turner. Move it over
here, suggested Hodgkinson. And
that was that.

NYSE ICE baby
What is Jeff Sprecher to do with the
New York Stock Exchange? The boss
of IntercontinentalExchange has just
agreed to buy that venerable
institutions parent, NYSE Euronext,
for $8.2bn. But cash equity trading
is low margin, even if the NYSE
brand makes a profitable listings
business possible. The real attraction
is NYSEs Liffe European derivatives
exchange. So ICE aims to spin off
the Euronext equity exchange. Mr
Sprecher might like to spin off the
NYSE, too, but its status as a
symbol of American capitalism will
prevent him. So he is stuck with a
business that, in six years, has gone
from a near-monopoly in trading of
NYSE-listed stocks to a 25 per cent
share. Well, if floor trading should
die out, Mr Sprecher can always sell
the financial news channels footage
of men in blue coats yelling and
throwing paper.
This is a small complication. But
it is emblematic of the deals
complexities. If the tie-up works as
advertised, both sides will be happy.
ICE has paid NYSE Euronext
shareholders a 38 per cent premium
a total of $2.2bn for a stock that
has gone nowhere for four years.
For ICE the $450m in annual
synergies it expects, if realised,
are easily worth $3bn or more.
But if there is sufficiently small
overlap between the businesses for
antitrust regulators to allow it,
where will the savings come from?
ICE thinks NYSE Euronext could be
run more tightly. There is some
overlap: both companies have
clearing businesses, which are
costly to run. Mr Sprecher is betting
that, because the two clearing units
mostly clear different things
(energy, commodities and emissions
at ICE; interest rates and fixed
income at NYSE), regulators will be
sanguine. He may be right. And
ICE has a strong record of cost-
cutting. But it is buying a dreadful
chimera of a company, built out of
at least five previously distinct
parts.
There is a long list of big cross-
border stock exchange deals that
have failed to create value. If Mr
Sprecher keeps NYSE-ICE off that
list, it will be a major achievement.
China property
Naysayers on China wanted
everybody to believe that its
property market would have gone
pop by now. Investors who ignored
them will be glad they did. Shares in
Chinese property developers have
made the biggest gains in Hong
Kong this year, returning as much
as 80 per cent against 25 per cent for
the benchmark Hang Seng index.
Those returns are impressive
considering that Beijing has not
budged from its pledge to curb
property prices. But then the value
of house sales has still grown 10 per
cent this year. It is only recently
that unit prices have started to fall
now down a tenth from an August
peak. Even so, those price falls and
lower interest rates helped the sales
volume to jump 30 per cent in
November from last year.
This sales growth has helped
developers to reduce stock, but it is
the lack of price appreciation that is
squeezing all but the strongest. As
the price boom comes to an end,
falling margins and high leverage
have left developers facing returns
below the cost of capital. Debt-to-
equity ratios are more than 70 per
cent and short-term liabilities are up
sixfold since 2006, according to
Barclays. Little wonder that
Greentown, a developer, was forced
to raise HK$5bn from its shareholder
Wharf this year.
Such low cyclical returns and high
leverage mean valuations are
starting to look rich. Developers
such as China Overseas Land and
Investment the biggest by market
capitalisation trade on 12 times
forward earnings, close to their long-
term average of 14 times. Yet the
sectors average discount to net asset
values has shrunk to 35 per cent
from the historical average of 48 per
cent, notes Jefferies. With Beijing set
on tackling income equality and
supporting sustainable growth, price
appreciation is unlikely to return
any time soon. Chinas developers
must adjust to that.
Italy derivatives ruling
Is there no end to it? As regulators
around the world probe manipulation
of the interbank lending market,
prosecutors in Italy have zeroed in
on something a bit less esoteric but
no less troubling the mis-selling of
derivatives contracts. Deutsche Bank,
UBS, JPMorgan and Depfa Bank
have been convicted and fined 1m
each for aggravated fraud involving
the sale of a 1.8bn bond to the city
of Milan. The verdict could start a
cascade of similar cases, because
Italys local authorities went on a
structured finance binge in the past
decade. Moreover, it suggests that
banks are not entitled to make a
profit on those deals.
Milans case against the banks was
that they were not transparent in
their dealings with the city, and that
the complexity of the instrument in
question an interest rate swaps
transaction was not apparent. At
the time, local authorities were
seeking to refinance using interest
rate swaps as a means of increasing
current revenue while postponing
costs. According to the Bank of Italy,
some 35bn of local authority
borrowing may involve interest rate
swaps. The fact that the borrowers
underestimated what the costs would
be is coming back to punish them.
The court upheld Milans
complaint and ordered the banks to
surrender assets to the value of
nearly 100m roughly the profit
they are said to have made on the
transaction. The banks are to appeal.
A written ruling that should set out
the judges arguments in detail is
due within 90 days. So it would be
premature to leap to conclusions.
But local authorities, in Italy or
elsewhere, are hardly bastions of
financial expertise. Their borrowings
ought to be supervised by finance
ministries. Italian local authorities
can no longer engage in the type of
transaction at the heart of the Milan
case. If there is any lesson, it is that
it is time for clearer rules for such
bespoke transactions.
Areva
As profit warnings go, the one from
French nuclear power group Areva
yesterday was hardly of the
megawatt variety. Certainly, it was a
far cry from the whopping 2.4bn of
writedowns the Paris-based group
announced a year ago. This time
Areva is cautioning that earnings
could be a little light in 2013 more
than 1.1bn rather than the
previously anticipated 1.25bn floor,
at the pre-interest, tax, depreciation
and amortisation level. It is,
however, reconfirming guidance for
2012 and still expects break-even free
operating cash flow next year. Even
so, Arevas shares, which had been
edging up from 10-year lows, fell
about 4 per cent.
One worry may be that the
problems seem to stem from the
companys renewables business. This
is a small unit in the context of the
group overall: its 300m sales
accounted for just 3 per cent of the
group total in 2011. But Areva chief
executive Luc Oursel had been
projecting rapid growth for this
division, with annual sales to top
750m by 2013 and more than
1.25bn by 2014-16. Now Areva says
revenues from renewables will
probably be flat next year, in line
with the 600m expected for 2012.
Blame is placed on financing delays
at some projects. Investors, familiar
with the fickle nature of renewables
earnings flow at other European
companies, including Siemens, may
be nervous.
By contrast, Arevas core nuclear
business appears to be on track, with
target revenue growth of 3-6 per cent
confirmed for 2013. But the challenge
here was always going to come post-
2014, when Areva is projecting a
pick-up in sales growth to 5-8 per
cent a year. There have been some
positive developments following the
Carnival
It is almost a year since the cruise
liner Costa Concordia capsized off
Italy. Carnival, its owner, is still
feeling the consequences of that
tragedy and a fire on another Costa
ship shortly afterwards. The
company which controls half of the
global cruise market was able to
limit the fall in revenue to 3 per cent
over the year, but operating profits
were 27 per cent down as margins
collapsed.
Nevertheless, Carnivals shares are
up 15 per cent since the start of
January, and trade on 16 times
forecast earnings for 2013. The
investment case assumes that it can
pull off a dual recovery: in the short
term from the Concordia disaster,
and in the medium term from a
general malaise.
Even before this year, Carnival
had been going in the wrong
direction for a while. Operating
profits in 2011 were more than a 10th
lower than they had been five years
earlier, despite a big jump in
revenues during the period. The
global financial crisis did not help,
nor did the industrys enthusiasm for
new ships. Capacity rose 7 per cent
annually between 2000 and 2010.
Deutsche Bank expects that rate to
halve between now and 2016,
allowing the likes of Carnival to
improve pricing and margins.
But the company also has to battle
grim economic conditions, and its
cautious tone about 2013 knocked
6 per cent off the shares yesterday.
Earnings for the year could be 7 per
cent below previous expectations,
with the company pointing the finger
at lower pricing. Margins will
improve in 2013, but perhaps not as
much as the optimists hope.
Some investors will like Carnivals
promise to return its $1.3bn of
expected 2013 free cash flow to
shareholders, after dividends of a
similar amount in 2012. But its
profile a faltering recovery and
hefty cash returns suggests that
16 times earnings is generous.
post-Fukushima hiatus, but nuclears
prospects are far from rehabilitated.
Areva shares, on 14 times consensus
2013 earnings, may be in for a slow
crawl for a while yet.

Libor failure Five internal audits at UBS did not spot rate-fixing Page 16
There is little peace and even
less goodwill to all men in
Washington this Christmas as
congressional Republicans and
the White House argue over
how to avoid the spending cuts
and tax rises due in January.
Next weeks build-up to the
fiscal cliff would be bad
enough for investors, even if it
was not combined with
holidays. In the week between
Christmas and New Year junior
staff will be running many
bank trading desks and hedge
funds, while plenty of other
investors have already squared
their positions, ready to return
in the new year. The market
will be much less liquid than
usual, with little trading, and
the trading there is having a
bigger impact on price.
Drop tense political
negotiations into this market
and the volatility could spoil
many a break.
Yet history suggests
Christmas has typically been
kind to investors. In spite of
the lack of trading, equities
have been less volatile in the
final week of the year than is
usual and have produced better
returns. It is true there have
been no monster returns; the
best gain on US shares in the
last 84 Christmas weeks was
5.3 per cent, a rise beaten on
average at least one week each
year. But the median weekly
return was triple the norm,
and there has been little
downside to staying in the
market.
Investors who can tear
themselves away from fiscal
cliffery next week should think
about taking profits on risky
assets after a good year and
buying what underperformed.
Topping up bond holdings
seems unappealing with yields
below inflation; but disciplined
rebalancing reduces risk and
boosts returns.
Only in a market with a
multiyear trend the dotcom
or credit bubbles, for example
does rebalancing harm returns.
Since 1980 a 60/40 US equity/
bond portfolio turned $100 into
$2,566 if left. Rebalanced once a
year back to 60/40, it would be
worth $2,784, and would have
been less volatile, too.

US banks
face steep
rise in bad
loans cover
By Tracy Alloway in New York
and Adam Jones in London
The US accounting standards
setter has unveiled tough new
rules that will increase the
amount of money banks have to
set aside to cover soured loans
and bonds.
The proposed rules from the
US Financial Accounting Stand-
ards Board are likely to prove
controversial among banks, as
well as the FASBs counterparts
at the International Accounting
Standards Board.
The FASB has yet to under-
take an official study estimating
the impact of the proposed
rules, but its chairman, Leslie
Seidman, said yesterday that
feedback from financial institu-
tions indicated banks might
have to increase their loan loss
reserves by 50 per cent. The
board will examine the impact
of the rules as it collects indus-
try reaction, which is expected
to continue into next year.
We do expect some increase
in the reserves for financial
institutions, but thats some-
thing well be learning more
about during the comment
period, Ms Seidman said.
Under current US accounting
rules, banks are required to set
aside money for bad loans
largely using a so-called
incurred loss model, meaning
they do not have to reserve
for soured loans until losses are
considered probable or have
already been incurred. That
methodology has led to violent
swings in the amounts of money
banks put aside in loan loss pro-
visions in recent years.
The FASBs proposal would
shift banks to an expected
loss model in hopes of avoiding
the shocks experienced in the
financial crisis. Under this
model, banks would have imme-
diately to estimate the amount
of potential losses they might
incur on loans, or bonds, and set
aside money to cover them.
The FASB and IASB have
been pushing jointly to move to
an expected loss model, but
significant cracks have emerged
in their attempt. Ms Seidman
said IASB plans to limit loss
estimates for performing loans
to 12 months. The FASB will not
limit those estimates.
Hans Hoogervorst, IASBs
chairman, has criticised the
more conservative US account-
ing approach, claiming it would
deter banks from lending.
We think there will be plenty
of pushback from the industry,
as the new guidance would
require higher initial recogni-
tion of credit losses as new loans
are originated, leading to day
one losses, said Glenn Schorr,
banking analyst at Nomura. So
we get the argument that this is
potentially another disincentive
for banks to lend.
The American Bankers Asso-
ciation said it welcomed FASBs
attempt to simplify the account-
ing method, but that the boards
unlimited timeframe for esti-
mating loan losses could be a
potential issue for the banks.
The proposal appears to
require banks to extend some
estimates of losses so far into
the future that reliability will
likely be called into question,
said ABAs Bob Davis.

Deal advisers heave sigh of
relief to see grim 2012 end
By Anousha Sakoui in London
and David Gelles in New York
Advisers will turn their backs
on 2012 with little regret, as the
year will rank as one of the
worst for dealmaking in a
decade.
Globally, fees from investment
banking activity including
mergers and acquisitions, equity
and debt issuance slid 7 per
cent on 2011, reaching $69.4bn in
the year to date. Indeed, despite
a late flurry of deals in the final
quarter, 2012 ranks as the worst
year for fees since 2009. Euro-
pean fees were at their lowest
level for a decade at just over
$15bn, according to data pro-
vider Thomson Reuters.
While fees were boosted by
companies taking advantage of
low interest rates to raise debt
funding, with 2012 a record year
for junk bonds, M&A provided
the greatest share of fees.
Yet global M&A fell, with
$2,058bn worth of deals done,
down 5.2 per cent on 2011,
almost half that of the market
peak in 2007. It is the worst year
for M&A since 2009: before that
it had not been so low since
2004, Mergermarket says.
European M&A fell 9.7 per
cent to $635.3bn, despite some of
the worlds biggest deals being
done in the region, as US invest-
ments into the continent
dropped 12.3 per cent. US M&A
fell 8.3 per cent to $727.6bn.
Unpredictable markets meant
fees from equity issuance hit a
low not seen since 2008. Yet the
US continued to drive invest-
ment banking activity, with
Facebooks initial public offering
making 2012 the regions strong-
est year for listings since 2007.
Despite the gloom, large deals
such as that between commod-
ity trader Glencore and miner
Xstrata, as well as record-break-
ing Chinese and Japanese acqui-
sitions, provided some comfort.
It shows that if there is com-
pelling strategic sense you can
pull these big deals off, said
Giuseppe Monarchi, co-head of
Emea M&A at Credit Suisse.
Other bankers are more posi-
tive. We are seeing signs of a
growing equity market pipeline
which should lead to increased
confidence and more deal activ-
ity as risk aversion abates, said
Henrik Aslaksen, global head of
M&A at Deutsche Bank.
Dealmaking saw a late rally in
final quarter, with Rosnefts
$59.1bn acquisition of two stakes
in TNK-BP boosting the value of
deals done by 41.9 per cent.
M&A is the wild card for
2013. With organic growth not
forthcoming, it is only a matter
of time before boards start to
look for growth through acquisi-
tions, said Vis Raghavan, head
of banking, Emea, at JPMorgan.

Trafigura earns nearly $1bn as
commodities traders defy gloom
By Javier Blas in London
Trafigura, the commodities
trader, earned about $1bn for
the second year running in 2012,
indicating that the profitability
of the worlds top houses domi-
nating raw materials has
remained high in spite of slower
economic growth in China.
The privately held company,
based in Geneva and Singapore,
has told its lenders and bond-
holders it made profits of
$991.9m in the year to Septem-
ber, down 11 per cent from last
years record $1.11bn.
Trafigura is the worlds sec-
ond largest independent metals
trader, after Glencore, and the
third largest oil trader behind
Vitol and Glencore. It does not
release its accounts publicly.
Trafigura has expanded
aggressively and has built a new
subsidiary of petrol stations, oil
terminals and storage sites.
That expansion helped lift prof-
its from just $31m in 2002 to
2012s figure.
Executives have said they are
aiming to establish that net
income level as Trafiguras base
level of profitability.
The drop from 2011 was due to
higher staff costs and expenses
related to new investments and
business purchases, it said in its
annual report, seen by the
Financial Times. Gross profit, a
rough measure of underlying
profitability, was up on the
year. Revenues fell 1.6 per cent
to $120bn.
This year, Trafigura moved
the legal headquarters of its key
trading division from Switzer-
land to Singapore, highlighting
the attractions of the city-states
low-tax regime and proximity to
China. In a further setback for
Switzerland, it is halving its Lu-
cerne office, relocating staff to
Geneva, Singapore and Mumbai.
The company has vowed to
remain privately held, but is
bringing in outside investors
through its subsidiary Puma
Energy, which focuses on petrol
stations. Last year, it sold a 20
per cent stake to the Angolan
state oil company and has indi-
cated that it could float that
business in 2014 at the earliest.

Ren Obermann will stand
down as chief executive of
Deutsche Telekom at the
end of next year after 16
years with the former state-
owned German telecoms
operator.
Mr Obermann, who
requested that the board
terminate his employment
contract, is well regarded
in both financial and politi-
cal circles in Germany,
although his last significant
act will be remembered as
the failed attempt to merge
its US business with AT&T
last year.
Even so, he is seen by
investors to have had a
good seven years as chief
executive during a difficult
period for traditional tele-
coms groups in Europe,
including more successful
mergers of non-core opera-
tions in the UK as well as a
recent deal to merge with
MetroPCS in the US.
Ulrich Lehner, chairman
of the board, said that he
deeply regretted Mr Ober-
manns decision.
Mr Obermann, 49, said
that he wanted to move
closer to operational activ-
ities to take a more entre-
preneurial role than was
possible for the head of
an international corporate
group, although he did not
say where that would be.
One analyst said a move of
this kind was in keeping
with a reputation for being
customer-focused and with
an eye on innovation, but
added that Mr Obermann
was also known to have a
tendency to glaze over
when asked about more cor-
porate activities such as
cost cutting and working
with the unions on labour
policy.
Mr Obermann said: I
want to go back to having
more time for customers,
for product development
and for technology.
Deutsche Telekom last
month unveiled a three-
year business plan to build
next-generation fibre broad-
band and 4G mobile serv-
ices in Germany and the US
at a cost of almost 30bn.
As part of the plan, it said
it would reduce its dividend
for the next two years.
Timotheus Httges,
finance director, will suc-
ceed Mr Obermann as chief
executive. Mr Httges, who
has been with Deutsche Tel-
ekom since 2000, said: By
2014, we expect to halt the
decline in revenues and
start growing again. There-
fore, we will invest heavily
primarily in our networks
in Germany.
Mr Obermann joined
Deutsche Telekom shortly
after the former state
monopolys privatisation in
1996, and became the
youngest chief executive of
a major German corpora-
tion in 2006.

Obermann wants
new challenge
Norways oil wealth fund
has accelerated its efforts to
increase its real estate allo-
cation, launching a 2.4bn
spending spree on ware-
houses and industrial prop-
erty across Europe.
Norges Bank Investment
Management, whose market
value was $650bn at the end
of the third quarter, will
work with ProLogis, the US
warehouse specialist, to
build up a portfolio that
will see it become one of
the largest owners of Euro-
pean industrial property.
The move into industrial
real estate marks a depar-
ture for the worlds largest
sovereign wealth fund by
assets in the way it buys
property. Norges previous
investments have tended
towards the top end of the
market and include a 25 per
cent stake in Londons
Regent Street and shops on
the Champs Elyses.
The fund, which will be
managed by ProLogis, will
be seeded with a portfolio of
195 properties with floor
space of almost 50m sq ft,
all of which are already
owned by the US group.
The bulk of the portfolio
will then be built through
acquiring assets on the
open market.
Karsten Kallevig, chief
investment officer for real
estate at Norges, said the
move into industrial prop-
erty with ProLogis marked
an advancement of its strat-
egy of increasing its real
estate exposure.
Norges has a stated strat-
egy of investing in property
through joint venture part-
nerships. Earlier this year,
it announced a tie-up with
Generali, the Italian
insurer, to buy offices and
shops in central Paris. It
also bought a half stake of
Meadowhall, the 1.5bn
Sheffield shopping centre,
in October.

Ericsson is to write down
the full value of its stake in
the lossmaking ST-Ericsson
joint venture and take a
SKr8bn ($1.22bn) charge in
the fourth quarter as the
Swedish telecoms equip-
ment maker ruled out
becoming full owner of the
mobile phone chipmaker.
STMicroelectronics, the
Franco-Italian maker of
semiconductors, announced
earlier this month that it
wanted to quit the joint
venture, in which both com-
panies hold 50 per cent.
Ericsson said yesterday
that the SKr8bn non-cash
charge reflected a write-
down of the fair value of
ST-Ericsson as well as
including about SKr3bn in
funding needed for the
available strategic options
for the joint venture.
ST-Ericsson has been hit
by the woes at its biggest
customer, handset maker
Nokia, and the joint ven-
ture has accumulated losses
of more than $2bn since
2009 after struggling to
make headway with other
smartphone manufacturers.
Ericsson has declined to
comment on its plans for
ST-Ericsson but yesterday
ruled out taking full owner-
ship of the company.
Rumours swirled all
autumn that the Swedish
group was looking into the
future of the unit. ST-Erics-
son announced plans to cut
a quarter of its then 6,500
jobs in April.
Ericsson has repeatedly
said that it sees value in the
modem technology that it
contributed to ST-Ericsson.
It repeated that it contin-
ued to explore strategic
options and added that its
best estimate for these was
that they would need about
SKr3bn of cash from Erics-
son, mostly in 2013.
Ericssons shares fell by
2 per cent in early trade
yesterday to SKr65.

Deutsche Bahn is suing
ThyssenKrupp and three
other companies for com-
pensation over a rail price-
fixing scandal that threat-
ens to heap further finan-
cial damage on the German
steel and technology con-
glomerate.
The claim for compensa-
tion comes little more than
a week after ThyssenKrupp
reported a full-year 5bn
net loss after booking a big
writedown on failed steel
plant investments in the US
and Brazil.
ThyssenKrupp said Deut-
sche Bahn had not yet spec-
ified the size of its claim
and the German state-
owned rail operator
declined to comment on
the size of possible
compensation.
However, German media
reports, citing Deutsche
Bahn sources, estimated the
size of total compensation
at 750m and said Thys-
senKrupp could be liable for
about 400m of that
amount.
Deutsche Bahn sought
compensation after Ger-
manys federal cartel office
in July imposed 124.5m in
fines on four companies
over their involvement in
conspiracy to make and
supply rails to Deutsche
Bahn at inflated, anti-
competitive prices over sev-
eral years.
The competition author-
ity fined a unit of Thys-
senKrupp 103m, a unit of
Vossloh 13m and two units
of Voestalpine a total of
8.5m.
Voestalpine acted as a
whistleblower in the case
and is not involved in the
lawsuit brought by Deut-
sche Bahn.

Danske Banks chief execu-
tive has become one of the
first leaders of a financial
institution to issue a gen-
eral apology for the lenders
behaviour leading up to the
financial crisis.
The apology from Eivind
Kolding, chief executive
since February but deputy
chairman from 2005-11, caps
a recent period of contro-
versy for the bank, which
has been much criticised
for its new advertising cam-
paign as part of efforts to
regain the publics trust.
In our ambition to meet
the markets and investors
expectations about growth
and to create short-term
profit from ourselves and
our customers, we lost a
certain amount of focus on
our long-term values. We
admit that and apologise for
it, Mr Kolding wrote in an
op-ed for Politiken newspa-
per in Denmark.
He also said Danske had
been oblivious to the speed
limit in the fast growth
before the 2008-09 crisis.
Mr Kolding, previously a
senior shipping executive as
head of Maersk Line,
launched a new strategy
last month for Denmarks
biggest bank. We believe
that regaining trust is
important for all banks
including Danske Bank, he
told the Financial Times in
an interview a month ago.
But the advertising cam-
paign accompanying the
strategy has been hugely
controversial, predomi-
nantly for its use of a pic-
ture showing a protester
with a dollar bill taped over
his mouth with occupy on
it. After protests from cus-
tomers and the Occupy
Wall Street movement, Dan-
ske withdrew that advert
but kept others including a
woman voting in parlia-
ment with a child on her
lap and two women kissing,
all under the slogan New

Time Warners investment
group is joining a lineup of
Hollywood names including
Robert Downey Jr and
Elisabeth Murdoch in
backing Maker Studios, the
popular online video network
that aims to link YouTube
and traditional television,
writes Emily Steel.
The companies yesterday
announced a $36m series C
funding round, led by Time
Warner Investments.
Founded in 2009, Maker
followed the strategy of
traditional Hollywood studios
by inking deals with creative
talent and building a
40,000square foot
production facility in Culver
City, California complete
with sound stages,
production offices, prop and
wardrobe areas, recording
booths, makeup artists and
more. The company is home
to some of the most popular
online video stars, including
KassemG, Nice Peters, the
Shaytards and rapper
SnoopDoggs WestFestTV.
Unlike traditional studios,
however, Maker primarily
distributes its content online.
The company received
funding from Googles
YouTube to launch online
channels, and now operates
more than 5,000 channels
that garner 2bn online views
a month. The new
investment round will allow
it to continue to sign on
talent and expand into
Europe and other markets,
said Courtney Holt, Makers
chief operating officer.
Existing investors such as
Greycroft Partners; the
investment company for
American actor Mr Downey;
Ms Murdoch, daughter of
Rupert Murdoch; and FUEL:
M+C, the investment
company for Jon Miller, a
former News Corp executive,
all participated in the latest
round of funding.
Makers other new
investors include Beirut
based Daher Capital and
Jon Landau, an Academy
Awardwinning film producer
whose credits include
Titanic, Avatar, Dick Tracey
and Honey, I Shrunk the
Kids. The investment is said
to value the company at
about $200m, a person
familiar with the matter said.
The news comes as
traditional media companies
scurry to understand how to
exploit the market for online
video, against a backdrop of
a new generation of viewers
who are flocking to the
medium and the rise of
internetconnected TV sets
that blur the divide between

Adidas soaks up the punches to deliver sporting success
Here, in no particular order, are six
ingredients of success in top-level sport
natural talent, hard work, luck, inferior
rivals, ambition and confidence. Add
favourable macroeconomic conditions and
intimate knowledge of the business and its
customers, and you have a formula for
successful chief executives of sporting
goods companies too.
Herbert Hainer, chief executive of
Adidas, strikes me as a wonderful, almost
Muhammad Ali-like example of the
confidence required to succeed in the
business of sport. Last month he was
absorbing punches on the ropes as he
informed investors that Adidas, the
worlds second-largest sportswear group by
sales after Nike, had lowered its 2012 sales
forecast. Then he skipped back into the
centre of the ring and delivered a well-
timed blow: We will see record sales and
earnings in 2013 . . . All that I hear from
the markets is that we are winning market
share in each and every country.
Adidas shareholders should thank the
super-confident Mr Hainer for guiding the
company skilfully through a year that
threw up more than its fair share of
unusual challenges. Adidas is set to finish
2012 with a stock price up more than 40
per cent from its level 12 months ago. This
compares with a 33 per cent rise in
Germanys blue-chip Dax-30 index, of
which Adidas is a member, and more
pertinently a meagre 2.5 per cent
increase for Puma, Germanys other
leading sportswear group.
It helped, of course, to be a big sports
goods company in a big sports year, what
with the London Olympics and the
European football championship finals.
Still, Adidass success did not come easy.
Mr Hainer began the year knowing that
Nike would take over as the official kit
supplier for the NFL American football
league, a lucrative contract held since 2001
by Reebok, an Adidas subsidiary.
Matters at Reebok went from
disappointing to ugly when a forensic
audit uncovered extensive fraud at
Reeboks Indian unit, whose former
managing director and chief operating
officer were arrested. A third blow came
in September when a financial quarrel
erupted between the National Hockey
League, the association that runs
professional ice hockey in North America,
and the players, who all wear Reebok
gear. Not one game has been played all
season, and the three-month dispute is
eating into the 100m in annual revenues
that Adidas gets from Reeboks NHL-
related sales.
Adidas has therefore slashed its 2015
sales target for Reebok by a startling one-
third to 2bn. This is a brave step. In 2005
Adidas trumpeted its $3.8bn acquisition of
Reebok as the deal that would park its
tanks on Nikes lawn in the North
American market and enable it to take
aim at the US groups global domination.
Nike still holds the top position, but for
Mr Hainer there is better news: investors
are keeping Adidass share price high in
spite of the troubles at Reebok.
One explanation is Mr Hainers
irresistibly infectious confidence about
Adidass future. A second is that he has a
shrewd instinct about where the sports
goods business must go next to expand its
appeal to customers. In an age of
increasing life expectancy, this industry
can tap into the desire of older people to
jog, walk, go to the gym and play golf. At
the other end of the age spectrum, Mr
Hainer points out, sport and fitness can
help address obesity among young people.
These are not the only longer-term
trends that work in Adidass favour. There
is also the Chinese market to consider. In
contrast to steel, textiles and other
western industries, the Chinese sports
goods sector has never threatened the
supremacy of Nike and Adidas.
The US and German giants are much
better than Chinas Anta Sports and Li
Ning at securing contracts with star
athletes and developing brand loyalty
among sports fans. As Adidas noted
confidently in its guidance to investors
last month, local players [in China]
struggle with declining brand image as
well as inventory and product ageing
issues.
But if Adidas can do it, why cant Puma,
which is based in the same German town
of Herzogenaurach and which was born
out of the same pre-second world war shoe
business? In a nutshell, Puma, owned by
PPR, the Paris-based luxury goods
company, has too many product lines and
too fuzzy an idea of itself as a premium
sports fashion and lifestyle brand.
Moreover, a recent clear-out of top
executives at Puma contrasts starkly with
the long-term boardroom stability at
Adidas. Mr Hainer can sip his Christmas
Sekt with confidence.

COMPANIES
For yet another year since the finan-
cial crisis took hold, many companies
around the world shied away from
dealmaking, opting instead to focus
on fortifying their balance sheets and
returning capital to shareholders.
Their caution was understandable.
Faced with malaise in the eurozone,
slowing growth in emerging markets,
and political elections in France, the
US and Japan, many executives and
directors thought doing no deals was
safer than forging ahead with
megadeals in uncertain times. As a
result, worldwide M&A volumes fell
5.2 per cent to $2.06tn from 2011,
according to Mergermarket.
Some of these reasons for prudence
will persist next year. The eurozone
recovery remains tepid, emerging
markets are not longer booming and
the US faces a looming fiscal cliff.
Despite these persisting woes, many
dealmakers believe that there is so
much pent-up demand that more
deals will simply have to get done in
2013.
Many companies this year decided
not to do deals, but to return capital,
says Chris Ventresca, co-head of
North America M&A at JPMorgan.
As we go into the next year, they
wont have anything new to talk
about other than modest, organic
growth, and pressure will grow for
them to do deals to drive their stock
price higher.
This thesis is supported by a strong
finish to the year. A flurry of big
deals, such as SoftBank taking control
of Sprint Nextel, and Freeport-
McMoRan Copper & Golds purchase
of Plains Exploration and Production
and McMoRan Exploration, lifted
fourth-quarter volumes compared
with the previous year.
The back end of the year, and the
fourth quarter in particular, you
could really feel an increase in busi-
ness across the board, says Scott
Lindsay, co-chairman of global M&A
at Credit Suisse.
Bankers say that activity has picked
up, too, stoking hopes of a brisk start
to 2013.
Last year at this time there was a
lot of volatility in the market, says
Robert Kindler, global head of M&A at
Morgan Stanley. This year theres a
lot less volatility, so there are more
conversations going on. Its taking
longer to do deals, but the level of
conversations this year compared
with last year is much higher. Its a
good cause for optimism.
North America was as usual at the
centre of dealmaking, accounting for
41 per cent of global activity. Mean-
while, emerging markets targets
climbed slightly, up 2.3 per cent,
boosted by Rosnefts acquisition of
TNK-BP. This dynamic looks set to
continue next year, with modest
growth in the US looking good com-
pared with uncertain prospects else-
where.
The US is the best positioned econ-
omy in the world right now from an
industrial, technology and service per-
spective, says Michael Carr, head of
M&A in the Americas for Goldman
Sachs. If you look at growth rates
over the next three to five years the
US has the best opportunity to pro-
duce the most durable and sustained
growth. If youre running a large glo-
bal business and you dont have a
meaningfully large exposure to the
US, youre going to lag.
Even low single-digit growth in the
US will probably prove more attrac-
tive than uncertain prospects in
Europe and Asia.
If you see 2 to 3 per cent sustaina-
ble growth here, thats better than
southern Europe, better than north-
ern Europe, says Lee Meyerson, head
of M&A at law firm Simpson Thacher.
Companies will still be looking at
Asia as a longer-term growth opportu-
nity, but now and for the foreseeable
future, the US remains the largest
economy in the world.
In Europe, deal volumes were down
10 per cent for the year and despite
the late flurry of deals posted the
worst quarter in the eurozone since
2010. From this low base, some deal-
makers expect a return to growth.
I expect 2013 will see a recovery,
which will be more pronounced in
Europe where uncertainties have been
greatest, says Wilhelm Schulz, head
of Emea M&A at Citi. Sectors such as
telecoms and utilities will see more
dealmaking as they face ratings pres-
sure while capex requirements are
increasing.
While the value of bids out of the
eurozone into the US jumped 106.5 per
cent over the past year, the value of
US bids into the region dropped 12 per
cent. However, some expect dealmak-
ing in Europe next year to be fuelled
by bargain hunters. US deals into
Europe are largely driven by the ques-
tion, Is it a good value? says Steve
Baronoff, chairman of global M&A at
Bank of America Merrill Lynch. Its
still hard to determine if were at the
bottom with Europe.
Before M&A enjoys a renaissance,
however, US politicians will have to
reach a new agreement on taxes and
avoid the fiscal cliff.
If we can have a rational solution
to the fiscal cliff, we have the opportu-
nity to have an improved M&A year
in 2013, says Scott Barshay, head of
Cravaths corporate department. If
we go over the cliff, then were likely
to have a down M&A year.

By Tobias Buck in Madrid
Spain took another crucial
step towards overhauling
its troubled banking system
yesterday after the Euro-
pean Commission signed off
on a government plan to
inject 1.87bn of fresh
capital into four Spanish
lenders.
Spanish officials hope
that the move will complete
the process of recapitalising
the countrys banking sec-
tor, which has now
absorbed close to 40bn
from the bank bailout fund
agreed by European Union
ministers last June.
Spains lenders have been
hit particularly hard by the
recent sharp recession and
housing bust, which forced
banks to realise painful
losses on their loan portfo-
lio and property assets. The
past few months have seen
an intense effort by Madrid
and Brussels to accelerate
the clean up of the sector,
through a sharp rise in pro-
visions, injections of capital
and the creation of a state-
run bad bank that will take
dud loans and assets off the
books of Spanish lenders.
Under the terms of the
commission agreement,
Banco Mare Nostrum
(BMN) will receive 730m in
additional capital, with
604m going to Banco
CEISS, 407m to Caja3 and
124m to Liberbank.
All four groups were cre-
ated over the past two years
through a series of mergers
between cajas, the regional
savings banks that have
been at the heart of the
Spanish banking crisis.
Many cajas expanded rap-
idly during the boom years,
lending generously to prop-
erty companies and home
buyers, and later found
themselves particularly
exposed to the housing
downturn.
The banks will now have
to drastically shrink their
balance sheets, close or sell
all their branches outside
their home region and refo-
cus their business on retail
banking and lending to
small and medium sized
enterprises.
Once the capital injection
has taken place, the Span-
ish state will become the
majority owner of both
BMN and Banco CEISS.
Caja3 is already in the
process of merging with
another Spanish lender, but
the remaining three banks
have to be listed or sold by
2017.
Last month, the European
Commission signed off on
the restructuring plans for
the four weakest Spanish
lenders with the greatest
need for fresh capital. Ban-
kia, CatalunyaCaixa, NCG
Banco and Banco de Valen-
cia will receive close to
37bn, with Bankia
accounting for about 18bn
of the total.
We have managed to
bring under way a thorough
restructuring of eight banks
in a matter of just a few
months, Joaqun Almunia,
the EU competition com-
missioner, said yesterday.

BANKS
Record year for junk bonds as investors chase higher yields
Overall global debt issuance
rose in 2012 buoyed by a
record year for junk bonds
but problems in the
eurozone, regulatory
concerns and economic
growth worries curtailed
sales in other parts of the
bond market, writes Mary
Watkins.
Global bond issuance
increased 5 per cent to
$5.95tn in 2012, with bond
sales by sovereigns and
agencies only marginally up
on last year. Overall
issuance by financial
institutions was tempered by
eurozone woes.
However, global high yield
corporate bond issuance hit
a new record in 2012 as
noninvestment grade
companies took advantage
of strong investor demand
and low coupons to hoard
debt, according to data from
Thomson Reuters.
With investors chasing
better yielding assets in the
face of record low rates on
traditional haven assets such
as US Treasuries and Bunds
and significant pent up
demand after a slower 2011,
high yield corporate issuance
rose 38 per cent to $397bn
this year. In the fourth
quarter coupons averaged
7.604 per cent, shy of this
years record lows, versus
about 9 per cent over the
past decade.
Overall corporate issuance,
including from investment
grade companies, also rose,
buoyed by a string of deals
in the US from groups such
as United Technologies,
Kraft and Intel.
Corporates have
benefited this year from the
fact that they are seen as a
safe harbour. Companies
have streamlined, their
earnings are good and post
Lehman they are leaner and
meaner, said Brendon
Moran, global cohead of
corporate origination, DCM
at Socit Gnrale. Theres
also been a theme of
disintermediation of the
banks. Companies are more
inclined to go to the bond
markets.
The European Central
Banks offer to provide
threeyear loans to banks
via its longerterm
refinancing operation at the
end of last year averted a
liquidity squeeze in Europes
financial system but reined
in overall supply.
However, it was ECB
president Mario Draghis
pledge in July to do
whatever it takes to save
the eurozone, accompanied
by the launch of the ECBs
programme to buy the
sovereign debt of countries
such as Spain and Italy, that
helped remove the tail risk
of a eurozone breakup.
ECB action paved the way
for a rally that saw yields on
eurozone peripheral
government bonds drop and
encouraged a spurt of
issuance by banks.
The fact that both Irish
and Portuguese issuers were
recently able to access the
unsecured market is strong
testament to the current
state of play and, barring
any negative headlines, I
dont see that changing as
we go into 2013, said
Melissa Smith, head of high
grade debt capital markets,
Emea, at JPMorgan.
She said that while
worries over growth and the
fiscal cliff of tax rises and
spending cuts in the US
hang over bond markets,
action by central banks had
given investors and issuers
cause for some optimism.

Predictions for next year
Bill Conway
CoFounder and CoCEO,
The Carlyle Group
The US is the best place in
the world to invest now and
for 2013, as energy prices
remain constrained and the
US housing market recovers.
I dont expect the deductibility
of interest to be changed in
the US. The spectacular deals
will be done in Europe
because of the lack of
liquidity and the need to sell
assets. Growth can cover up
a lot of problems and until
recently China and Brazil were
growing at a very robust rate.
But today you have to be
more selective when buying
companies in the emerging
markets because not all parts
of their economy are growing
at the same rate.
Barry Rosenstein
Founder,
Jana Partners
The environment for activism
is as good as weve seen in a
very long time. In many cases
you have well meaning
management, but they are too
close to the situation, or they
have the wrong incentives,
when there are so many
things they could be doing to
create value, and thats even
before factoring in the return
of M&A.
Andrea Orcel
Head of investment
banking at UBS
The equity, and therefore the
M&A market, offer some
value, while the risk free rate
in bonds broadly does not.
2013 should be a year when
the allocation to equity
products increases and if it
does so, confidence will start
recovering too. Carefully
unwinding the bond bubble
will be a critical job for central
bankers, investors and
investment bankers alike.
Scott Barshay
Head of corporate
department at Cravath
Once the uncertainty clears up
theres a lot of good reasons for
companies to do M&A. Theyve
got relatively high valuations
they need to support, theyve
cut costs to the bone, and the
debt markets are very robust
right now. When you take all
that together, the fundamentals
are present for a strong M&A
environment.
Raymond McGuire
Global head, corporate and
investment banking, Citigroup
As you have a more constructive
political environment, a more
confident macroeconomic
environment, and as the system
gets more comfortable with the
regulatory overlay, you will have
addressed three of the major
factors that have dampened the
conviction of CEOs. Its going to
take a while, this is not going to
change immediately. But I
believe there will be a return to
confidence, which will increase
activity. Investors are going to
demand growth.
Gene Sykes
Global head of M&A
at Goldman Sachs
Borrowing rates and current
credit conditions would suggest
that the returns from M&A are
starting to look very attractive,
helping close the gap between
buyers and sellers. There is
definitely a shift with corporates
to a lets get things done
mindset as theyve grown weary
of operating in a state of
suspense. Industries and sectors
such as technology, natural
resources and healthcare, that
are going through fundamental
changes, are likely to generate
M&A deals.

eight banks has

FINANCIAL TIMES FRIDAY DECEMBER 21 2012
LIBOR SCANDAL
UBSs $1.5bn settlement for
manipulating interbank
lending rates is the fourth
separate regulatory finding
against the Swiss group in
as many years underlin-
ing the failure of bank exec-
utives to reform the corpo-
rate culture.
Settlement documents
released on Wednesday
described myriad failings,
some starting in 2005 but
others continuing to late
2010 nearly two years
after the bank was found in
breach of regulations in the
UK and US.
In January 2009, the bank
paid $780m to US authori-
ties after admitting helping
US citizens evade paying
taxes. Ten months later, it
settled with UK authorities
over lax controls in its
wealth management divi-
sion, and
Regulators found that
until September 2009, UBS
allowed traders who made
money betting on Libor
rates to be put in charge of
the banks daily rate setting
process and, for much of
the time, had no rules gov-
erning this inherent conflict
of interest.
According to the regula-
tors investigations, five
separate internal audits at
UBS failed to spot the rate
fixing. While the banks
2008 compliance review rec-
ognised the risk of Libor
submissions being dis-
torted, the Swiss regulator
Finma found that UBS had
concluded there was no
correlation between its sub-
missions and trading posi-
tions.
A second compliance
review in 2009 simply drove
the traders to camouflage
their requests as market
colour, the UKs Financial
Services Authority said.
UBSs internal watchdogs
also missed evidence that
traders were engaging in
wash trades buying and
selling the same securities
simply to earn commissions
for the brokers who were
helping them to manipulate
interest rates.
In 2009, the UBS manager
in charge of overall
responsibility for the integ-
rity of the banks Libor
submissions was using an
electronic chat room when
a yen Libor submitter asked
traders for rate requests. He
reacted by sending the sub-
mitter a private message
saying: Just be careful
dude. The submitter
responded: I agree we
shouldnt have been talking
about putting fixings for
our positions on public
chat.
David Meister, head of the
Commodity Futures Trad-
ing Commission (CFTC)
enforcement division,
argued that this approach
to supervision encouraged
others. UBSs lack of sys-
tems and controls and lax
oversight was the Petri dish
that spawned a widespread
culture of using rate sub-
missions as mere tools to
increase the success of trad-
ers portfolios, and to make
false reports to protect the
franchise, he said.
Although clients began
complaining that UBS was
submitting Libor estimates
to benefit its trading book
in 2005, and the CFTC
started asking UBS for doc-
uments in 2008, the bank
did not uncover evidence of
rampant rate-fixing until
the end of 2010.
It represents the latest in
a series of compliance fail-
ings that have occurred
across the banks divisions,
from investment banking to
wealth management.
When the FSA made an
unsuccessful attempt last
year to fine its ex-chief
executive of wealth man-
agement, a London tribunal
heard a litany of serious
failings which were not
disputed by UBS and alle-
gations of a culture predi-
cated upon revenue at all
costs.
Just last month, a London
jury convicted one of UBSs
former traders, Kweku Ado-
boli, of the biggest banking
fraud in British history
after he lost $2.3bn in rogue
trades. The FSA also fined
the bank 29.7m for allow-
ing the unauthorised
trades.
The trading loss is now
seen among UBS staff as
the new benchmark of
wrongdoing, with reports of
relief among employees
that the banks $1.5bn glo-
bal Libor settlement was
only half an Adoboli.
UBS has implemented
major changes to personnel
and procedures, starting
with its decision to hire a
new general counsel in
2008.
Since then, 600 members
of the banks 2,000-strong
legal and compliance team
have been replaced through
attrition and lay-offs. UBS
also restructured the team
to ensure compliance staff
all reported to, and had
their pay decided by, UBSs
general counsel rather
than the heads of business
divisions.
We believe in the golden
rule: if you control pay and
promotion, you can build
the character necessary to
stay the course and be
uncompromising, and the
courage necessary to steer
the business into safer
waters, the bank said.
The group threw even
more resources at compli-
ance after it first became
aware of the yen libor rate
fixing attempts in 2010.
An internal team of four
that began conducting the
investigation was supple-
mented at times by a team
of 60 external lawyers, and
350 contract lawyers, to
review 250 million pages of
information.
Regulators investigations find that five separate internal audits at UBS over several years did not
spot the rate fixing. Brooke Masters, Caroline Binham, Kara Scannell and James Shotter report

News analysis
Libor
The daily London interbank
offered rate is the collective
name for a set of key
benchmark rates that reflects
how much it costs banks to
borrow from each other in
various currencies. It is the
reference rate for about
$350tn of financial products
from home mortgages to
credit cards so small
moves in the reference rate
can have significant knockon
effects in the economy.

By FT reporters
The former trader who
faces criminal charges in
the UBS rate-fixing probe
has been linked to rates
traders at Royal Bank of
Scotland, JPMorgan Chase
and Deutsche Bank, accord-
ing to a US criminal indict-
ment filed in the case.
A fourth bank, Citigroup,
has also been publicly tied
into the sprawling Libor
manipulation investigation
through the indictment of
Tom Hayes. Prosecutors
alleged that Mr Hayes, who
worked at both UBS and
Citi in the last decade, tried
to influence yen Libor sub-
missions to benefit his
derivatives position.
The indictment identifies
the institutions only by
their headquarters loca-
tions, but several people
familiar with the investiga-
tion confirmed which banks
were involved. All four
banks declined to comment.
Mr Hayes and his lawyer
could not be reached for
comment.
The people also confirmed
the identity of two inter-
dealer brokers described
only by letters in a separate
regulatory settlement
between UBS and the UK
Financial Services Author-
ity.
RP Martin is the firm
where the FSA alleges that
a few employees benefited
from nine wash trades
matched buy and sell trades
placed purely for the pur-
poses of generating 170,000
in commission.
The brokerage said: This
matter relates to a small
number of individuals and
an aspect of the companys
business which comprises a
small part of its overall
turnover. The company con-
tinues to co-operate fully
with regulators. It declined
to comment further.
ICAP, the interdealer bro-
ker founded by Michael
Spencer, is the company
that the FSA said received
quarterly payments of
15,000 from UBS for provid-
ing a fixing service. ICAP
declined to comment except
to repeat a prior disclosure
saying that the company is
co-operating with informa-
tion requests from several
regulatory authorities. Nei-
ther RP Martin, nor ICAP
have been accused of
wrongdoing.
In one March 2007 conver-
sation, an RBS trader is
alleged to have asked Mr
Hayes to make sure UBSs
submissions to the rate set-
ting process were on the
low side. Can u go fr low
everything plse? the docu-
ment says the trader wrote.
People close to the situa-
tion say RBS has fired four
people and has entered into
late-stage settlement negoti-
ations with US and UK reg-
ulators. RBSs chief execu-
tive Stephen Hester has
said the bank is hoping to
conclude a deal by the end
of February and people
familiar with the talks say
the bank expects to pay
more than the 290m fine
paid by Barclays but less
than UBS.
Two people have left
Deutsche in connection
with the Libor probe.
Prosecutors allege in the
indictment that a Deutsche
trader and Mr Hayes
agreed to fix the price of
interest rate derivative
products.
Citi and JPMorgan have
each acknowledged that
they are under investiga-
tion; two people have left
JPMorgan over the scandal.
Citi has already settled with
Japanese regulators over
efforts to manipulate the
Tokyo interbank rate.
Trader linked to brokers at four banks
Repercussions
Star trader was
richly rewarded
Tom Hayes, the former
UBS trader charged with
conspiring to manipulate
yen Libor rates hundreds
of times over three years,
started his career as a
22yearold trainee for
Royal Bank of Scotland,
writes Michael Stothard.
Described by an old
classmate as an
incredibly smart geek
who was nice, soft
spoken and calm, he took
only five years to rise to a
job with UBS in Tokyo as
one of the most significant
players in the yen interest
rate swap market.
Now 33 and the father
of a oneyearold boy,
Mr Hayes generated
hundreds of millions of
dollars in trading revenues
over three years betting
on interest rate
movements for the bank,
according to the US
Commodity Futures
Trading Commission.
He is likely to have
generated millions for
himself as well. The Swiss
regulator Finma has
reported that traders at
UBS could potentially
triple or even sextuple
their annual salaries with
bonuses for good results.
The documents released
by the US Department of
Justice this week show
traders well aware of the
potential rewards. One
broker allegedly wrote to a
UBS derivatives trader:
Think of me when yur on
yur yacht in monaco
wont yu.
US prosecutors allege
that in Tokyo from 2006
to 2009 Mr Hayess
success was driven by his
attempted manipulation of
the yen Libor rate on at
least 335 of 738 trading
days in collusion with
other traders and brokers.
Mr Hayes supposedly
said that a single basis
point or 0.01 per cent
move in the final yen Libor
rate could result in a $2m
profit for his trading book,
according to prosecutors.
It is alleged that on
occasion UBSs Libor rate
submission was moved by
several basis points.
The allegations this
week state that Mr Hayes
acted with others to fix
the rates. Roger Darin, a
trader who worked for
UBS in Singapore, Tokyo
and Zurich and was at
certain times responsible
for the yen Libor
submissions at UBS, was
also charged.
Less is known about
Mr Darin, but according to
his LinkedIn profile, he
obtained a bachelors
degree in business
administration from the
adulteducation college KS
Kaderschulen in St Gallen,
east Switzerland, where he
studied in the mid1990s.
Mr Hayes, who left UBS
in 2009 to join Citigroup
briefly, could not be
reached for comment.
Mr Darins lawyer declined
to comment.

For a while at least, manip-
ulating Libor was a profita-
ble business for UBS. But a
record $1.5bn fine to settle
US and UK investigations
may be only the initial
price the bank must pay as
a result of the scandal.
Tom Hayes, the British
former UBS and Citigroup
trader charged by the US
authorities on Wednesday,
made UBS at least $260m by
himself in his three years at
the bank, some reaped by
manipulating yen-denomi-
nated Libor, according to
findings released by the US
Commodity Futures Trad-
ing Commission.
His reputation as one of
the banks most valuable
traders was cemented when
he took up a Tokyo-based
position as a trader of deriv-
atives pegged to yen Libor.
Such was his status within
the bank that he was given
a risk limit of as much as
$3m per basis point one
100th of a percentage point
the CFTC said, in an indi-
cation of just how much
money could be made or
lost by tiny movements in
Libor, the benchmark rate
that underpins $350tn worth
of notional swaps.
It was the enormous vol-
umes of trades and large
trading risks employed by
Mr Hayes, 33, that made the
yen swaps market viable,
the regulators found.
His trades immediately
injected significant liquidity
in a previously illiquid mar-
ket, the CFTC wrote. Not
surprisingly, brokers were
eager to develop relation-
ships with the senior yen
trader in an effort to obtain
a piece of his business.
Prosecutors now allege
that this business was ille-
gal. Mr Hayes London-
based lawyer did not reply
to calls or an email seeking
comment.
If UBS was making
money via illegal trades,
others lost.
Among the biggest losers
are, allegedly, Fannie Mae
and Freddie Mac, the US
gover nment - cont r ol l ed
mortgage groups, which
together own or guarantee
roughly half of all outstand-
ing US home loans. A US
regulator claimed on
Wednesday that the groups
may have lost more than
$3bn in uncollected interest
payments.
The auditor of the regula-
tor, the Federal Housing
Finance Agency, recom-
mended pursuing a lawsuit
to recoup costs.
If filed, it would not be
the only Libor-related law-
suit tied to home loans. A
class action filed by an Ala-
baman pensioner accuses
UBS and 11 of the other big-
gest banks of being incen-
tivised to manipulate Libor
to a higher rate on certain
dates on which adjustable
mortgage interest rates
were reset. This resulted in
homeowners paying more
between 2000 and 2009,
according to the complaint.
UBS is also a respondent
in several other class
actions filed over the past
18 months since the global
probe into at least 20 banks
and interdealer brokers
gained pace.
Unlike Barclays the
only other bank to have set-
tled US and UK Libor
probes UBS admitted that
at times its manipulation of
rates was successful. That
could provide a road map to
class action lawyers and the
state attorneys-general who
are investigating whether
their constituents were
harmed by the conduct.
One obstacle plaintiffs law-
yers and state investigators
have faced so far is linking
an artificial movement to a
bond they purchased or
home mortgage they
obtained.
Among the many Libor-
related US claims awaiting
approval to proceed is an
antitrust suit brought by
the Mayor of New York and
the City of Baltimore. UBS
is one of 16 defendants fac-
ing potential damages that
could rise as high as $1tn.
We continue to work
closely with experts, coun-
sel and interested parties
and the evidence of manipu-
lation found within UBS
will assist us considerably
with progressing the antici-
pated action, said Lianne
Craig, a lawyer at Hausfeld,
the plaintiffs law firm.

Pressure is growing on Swiss
regulator Finma after two of
the countrys political parties
called for the resignation of
its head of banking
supervision, Mark Branson,
who was in charge of UBSs
Japanese securities unit
between 2006 and 2008,
writes James Shotter in
Zurich.
In the Libor settlement on
Wednesday between the
Swiss bank and four global
regulators, including Finma, it
became clear that employees
at UBSs Japanese unit had
been heavily involved in
attempts to manipulate
various benchmark rates
around the world.
According to Finmas own
findings a large part of the
interference with submissions
to benefit proprietary trading
positions at UBS can be
assigned to a trader who
worked in the Tokyo office
between 2006 and 2009.
UBSs Japanese unit pleaded
guilty to wire fraud as part of
its settlement with the US
Department of Justice.
In light of the revelations,
Switzerlands Green Party
demanded a parliamentary
investigation into Mr
Bransons position at Finma,
and into the watchdogs
handling of the Libor affair.
Mark Branson has to
resign said Daniel Vischer,
the Greens MP for Zurich.
As long as he remains in his
role, Finma has a credibility
problem.
Switzerlands socialist party
also called for Mr Branson to
resign, arguing that Finmas
credibility cannot be
preserved if someone, who
as a manager was
responsible for one of the
biggest scandals in modern
finance, remains in position
as head of its bank
supervisory activities.
However, Patrick Raaflaub,
the head of Finma, defended
Mr Branson, who recused
himself from the investigation
into UBS.
There have now been five
investigations into the
manipulation of Libor by
the FSA, the DoJ, the CFTC,
the Japanese FSA and
Finma and not one of
them has found any
indication that Mark Branson
knew of or was involved in
wrongdoing relating to Libor
in any way, he said, adding
that Finma would cooperate
with any parliamentary
inquiry.
Mr Raaflaub also dismissed
suggestions that Mr Branson
should have been aware of
problems at his unit.

Only three chief executives

ers long-term performance
indicating that Chinese
companies still have work
to do to catch up with glo-
bal competitors.
The ranking is based on
growth in shareholder

tenure of chief executives
appointed since 1995. It
includes chief executives
who have since left office.
The 2013 list, published

chief executive of Apple,
who led the 2010 ranking,
ahead of Jeff Bezos of Ama-
zon.com and Yun Jong-
yong, ex-chief executive of
Samsung Electronics.
Apples share price has
fallen but, during Mr Jobs
tenure, the technology com-
panys market value rose by
an adjusted $359bn. If you
want to create a lot of
shareholder value, it pays
to take over a company that
hasnt been doing well.
The highest ranking
mainland Chinese chief
executive on the list is Li
Jiaxiang, former chief exec-
utive of Air China, at
number 17. Wang Dong-
ming of Citic Securities and
Dong Mingzhu of Gree Elec-
tric also made the top 100.
Chinese business leaders
told the studys authors
Morten Hansen of Univer-
sity of California, Berkeley,
and Herminia Ibarra and
Urs Peyer of Insead that
as the countrys companies
become more innovation-
focused, their performance
will improve.
US companies chief exec-
utives took six of the top 10
spots, but punched below
their weight. Their average
position among the 3,143
chief executives analysed
was lower than that of
counterparts from Latin
America, India and the UK.
US CEOs have not been as
competitive on a global
scale as one might think.
The study assesses the
long-term performance of
corporate leaders, at a time
when shareholders are
focusing on short-term
share price and earnings
movements. In an interview
with HBR, Mr Bezos said:
If youre inventing and
pioneering, you have to be
willing to be misunderstood
for long periods of time.
The authors found no cor-
relation between financial
performance and perform-
ance on social and environ-
mental measures.
The top 100 chiefs gener-
ated an average total share-
holder return of 1,385 per
cent, and added an adjusted
$40.2bn to their companies
market capitalisations dur-
ing their tenure. The bot-
tom 100 which HBR does
not name saw returns fall
57 per cent on average, and
presided over a $13.6bn drop
in market value.

GENERAL INDUSTRIALS
If youre inventing
and pioneering, you
have to be willing to
be misunderstood
for long periods
In the past decade, Jeff
Sprecher and Interconti-
nentalExchange have been
the exchange industrys big
upstarts.
An ultimately ill-fated
attempt to buy the Chicago
Board of Trade in 2007 was
launched when Mr Sprecher
delivered his bid during the
industrys big annual con-
ference, slipping his offer
under the hotel door of the
then-CBOT chairman.
As the ICE chief execu-
tive acknowledged yester-
day: I like competing and I
like competing against
incumbents and I like going
into markets and seeing
where we can effect
change.
Indeed Mr Sprecher has
emerged as a central force
in turning what was once a
sleepy sector into one of the
liveliest areas of mergers
and acquisitions in the past
decade. From start-up in
2000, Mr Sprecher has built
up ICE through a series of
deals into energy and com-
modities trading exchange
valued at $9bn.
Now the ambitious,
relentlessly positive Mr
Sprecher has taken his
most ambitious shot yet;
buying NYSE Euronext,
owner of the totemic New
York Stock Exchange, to
see if he can effect change
there.
Analysts estimate that
the combined group will
have a market capitalisa-
tion of about $15bn. That
suggests that Mr Sprechers
business is moving closer to
reaching the dominant glo-
bal exchange operator, CME
Group, which has a market
value of about $17bn.
The acquisition of the US
equities business marks a
departure for ICE as it has
never had an interest in
share trading before.
Indeed, he stressed that his
real interest lay in NYSE
Euronexts futures business
in April 2011.
At the time ICE had com-
bined with Nasdaq OMX to
try to break up an agreed
but doomed merger
between NYSE Euronext
and Deutsche Brse.
NYSE Euronext itself has
been built by mergers and
acquisitions. Three Euro-
pean stock exchanges
formed Euronext, which
then bought the London-
based Liffe derivatives
exchange, before merging
with NYSE in 2007.
Among Mr Sprechers
first tasks was to stress that
ICE would be keeping the
US equities business and its
distinctive Wall Street
building. It is a tremen-
dous revenue and cash flow
generator, said Mr
Sprecher. When you start
to peel away parts of the
onion, you see that they are
a very healthy equities
business that looked a lot
more attractive than what
we appreciated.
While equities trading is
low margin, the listings
business and data are very
high margin. Everyone
wants to list on NYSE and
the listings throw off a lot
of cash, said one adviser
on the deal.
But it is far from a full
conversion to equities. At
the same time NYSE and
ICE signalled they planned
to spin off the European
equities, options and indi-
ces businesses either via a
listing or sale, should regu-
lators allow. We want to
expose what a good solid
company Euronext is if
organised properly, said
Mr Niederauer.
NYSEs technology busi-
nesses will also be given
only until the completion of
the deal, expected in the
second half of 2013, to prove
themselves worthy of fur-
ther investment.
The merged company
envisages a further $300m
of cost savings on top of the
$150m Mr Niederauer has
targeted in the next two
years for NYSE Euronext.
But ultimately the real
prize for ICE is Liffe, the
derivatives exchange, and
the opportunity to expand
into interest rate deriva-
tives. That was the opportu-
nity denied to Mr Sprecher
when he lost out to CME for
CBOT in 2007. Interest rate
derivatives are among the
worlds largest assets
classes and used increas-
ingly to offset risk.
The deal will make ICE
the third-largest derivatives
markets operator in the
world by number of con-
tracts traded and put pres-
sure on CME, the market
leader, and its other rival
Deutsche Brse as proposed
rules are set to shake up
the sector.
Global regulators want to
move more OTC derivatives
trading on to transparent
trading exchanges, and
make more deals be proc-
essed through clearing
houses. Exchanges are aim-
ing to grab market share
from banks and brokers
with a range of products
that mimic traditional prod-
ucts like swaps.
However volumes on both
NYSE and ICE have fallen
about 15 per cent this year
on weak investor appetite
for trading and flat global
interest rates.
Despite the current low
interest rate environment,
this is an area Jeff has
sought for over five years,
says Rich Repetto, analyst
at Sandler ONeill. With
the OTC, Dodd-Frank regu-
latory transformation, this
acquisition makes the com-
petition between exchanges
only more interesting.
Illustrating how fierce the
competition has become,
Morgan Stanley yesterday
agreed to buy a stake of US-
based start-up Eris
Exchange, which specialises
in the so-called swap
futures that are expected
to gain favour.

FINANCIAL TIMES FRIDAY DECEMBER 21 2012
MARKETS & INVESTING
Momentum trading part of a wider structural f law
In recent decades, Harold Ehrlich has
enthused about Americas hedge fund
world. No wonder: he is an adviser to
JPMorgans fund of hedge funds and used
to run Bernstein-Macauley, the asset
management group.
But these days Mr Ehrlich is
disenchanted. He has circulated a memo to
clients admitting that, sad to say, the
vast majority of all hedge funds worldwide
have well underperformed virtually every
major stock or bond index for some four
years.
What explains such a fall from grace of
even many long-time masters of the
financial universe? he asks.
Have such highly skilled super savvy
best of the best gone from being smart
to dumb? What went wrong? What,
indeed? Mr Ehrlich is not the only person
asking this question; other financiers are
quietly muttering it too. But what makes
his outcry particularly interesting is that
Mr Ehrlich believes he has an answer: an
addiction to momentum trading.
Back in the old days, he says, most
hedge funds eschewed the idea of using
strategies based on market timing, or even
macroeconomics. Previously, most
managers paid scant attention to business
cycles, overall GDP trends or the potential
effects of political forces . . . they focused
mainly on management prowess, product
superiority, marketing clout, his memo
explains. But after the disaster of 2008,
momentum trading and amateur
economics came to rule. Managers paid
increasing attention to the big picture.
Risk on, risk off adjusting exposure
[has] become an almost daily practice. In
other words, portfolio churning based on
market timing has replaced any focus on
fundamentals.
Many hedge fund managers might retort
they have had little choice: in a climate of
low volatility and interest rates, they have
to hunt returns wherever they can when
politics is buffeting markets in
unpredictable ways. But if that argument
is correct, that in itself may point to a
bigger problem that goes beyond the hedge
funds.
Take a look, for example, at some ideas
recently floated by Paul Woolley and
Dimitri Vayanos, two London-based
finance professors, in a paper* presented
to a conference in New York. They believe
the current obsession with momentum
trading is just one sign of a wider
structural flaw and intellectual conceit
that is marring the financial world. In
particular, western investors, like
regulators, have hitherto operated with the
idea that markets are driven by free
market forces; the dominant rhetoric was
that investors allocate according to
rational decisions about risk and reward.
But that is a sham. Like regulators,
funds have been following procedures
based on the discredited theory of perfect
markets, the two professors write. But
most households only invest by giving
their money to institutions, rather than
allocating it themselves; and they choose
those investment groups not on any
rational assessment of current or future
trends (since they lack real data), but on
crude measures of past performance. As a
result, institutional managers face
pressure to herd into strategies that
attempt to copy the previous winners,
because that is how they win clients.
Hence the tendency of markets to produce
asset bubbles; and the pressure to chase
momentum.
So is there any solution? Mr Ehrlich
thinks the problem could be solved if only
disgruntled investors in hedge funds would
pick up the phone and demand that hedge
funds go back to investing basics. Call
your [hedge fund] managers and remind
them that net cash returns, not just alpha,
are required for you and your institution
to stay the course, he counsels.
Profs Woolley and Vayanos are even
more specific. They want investors to take
10 steps, including adopting a long-term
investment approach based on dividend
flows; insisting that annual turnover of
portfolios is capped at 30 per cent;
replacing benchmarks based on market
capitalisation with more stable measures;
and paying performance fees only on the
basis of long-term results. They also urge
policy makers to support long-term
investing in their tax codes and regulatory
regimes and to demand that public funds
blaze a trail in setting a new investment
style.
As advice goes, it sounds sensible, if not
long overdue. But dont bet on rapid
change. After all, what makes Mr Ehrlichs
note so striking is precisely that it is
relatively rare; most financial advisers
(and investors) still prefer to grumble
quietly, rather than speak out.
Until they make their voices heard,
pressure for change will remain muted.

prices fell sharply with corn

The price drop in the final

Bad weather in key pro-
ducing areas in the US Mid-
west, the former Soviet
Union and Latin America

pushing costs higher. The

Fear gauges highlight the US f iscal cliff
Banks promise to support
embattled eurozone mem-
bers calmed fears that the
currency bloc could disinte-
grate.
The VStoxx slipped to its
lowest level since June 2007
on Wednesday and yester-
day was flat at 15.7 points.
Historically, the Euro-
pean and US fear gauges
have been tightly correlated
but the European index has
typically traded 3-4 points
higher and significantly
higher since the eurozone
crisis begun to rumble in
May 2010.
But the VStoxx is now 1.5
points lower than the US
gauge. The last time the
VStoxx was that much
lower than the Vix aside
from a one-day spike in the
US gauge in August 2011
was March 2009.
The spread has abso-
lutely collapsed, a strate-
gist observed. I wouldnt
expect the VStoxx to stay
below the Vix for long. If
By Robin Wigglesworth
and Ralph Atkins in London
Europes fear gauge has
fallen below its US equiva-
lent, a stark reversal of the
relationship between the
two indices that highlights
how investor concerns have
shifted sharply from the
eurozone crisis to the
looming US fiscal cliff.
The US Vix and the Euro-
pean VStoxx gauges meas-
ure the cost of hedging
against sharp moves in the
S&P 500 and the Euro Stoxx
50, respectively, and are
seen as a barometer of
investor fear.
Although still subdued
compared with the peaks of
recent years, the Vix index
has see-sawed higher from a
five-year low of 13.4 points
in mid-August to 17.4 points
yesterday.
In contrast, Europes
VStoxx index has gradually
fallen since the summer
after the European Central
the US goes over the cliff, it
will affect everyone.
Indeed, futures contracts
on the two indices indicate
that investors expect the
VStoxx to climb higher
than the Vix as early as
January.
Nonetheless, the move
underscores how markedly
the main global macroeco-
nomic concern has shifted
westwards, unless lawmak-
ers and President Barack
Obama can strike a deal
before the end of the year.

Private equity gets
extra pep from the
hunt for yield
It has been a vintage year
for private equity firms
seeking to take money out
of their portfolio companies,
and a gathering boom in an
often overlooked part of the
credit markets means 2013
is shaping up to be poten-
tially even more lucrative.
Something else handy:
the same private equity
firms are helping stoke the
boom.
The market for collateral-
ised loan obligations,
investment vehicles that
buy up corporate loans, has
roared back to life this year
thanks to investors hunger
for high-yielding assets.
CLO debt and equity issu-
ance this year passed $52bn
after two more deals yester-
day, according to Standard
& Poors Capital IQ data.
The total is more than four
times last years figure, and
private equity firms are
among the biggest manag-
ers of CLOs.
That in turn has added a
significant source of
demand for the leveraged
loans that CLOs buy, which
pushed down borrowing
costs for companies and
made so-called dividend
recaps cheaper.
According to Datalogic
figures, there has been
$27.7bn of dividend recapi-
talisation deals this year,
in which already highly
levered companies take on
loans to fund payouts to
their owners. This is the
highest level since 2007 and
the third-best figure ever.
Richard Hill, CLO strate-
gist at RBS, says while com-
panies have tapped the loan
market this year to refi-
nance borrowings at lower
rates and to pay dividends,
the revival of the loan and
CLO markets could soon
add further benefits to the
economy.
As leveraged loan issu-
ance increases, you could
see a return of merger and
acquisition activity and
business investment activ-
ity, he says. You would
expect to see that. This
market has been a signifi-
cant financing vehicle for
companies.
CLOs are similar to other
securitisation vehicles.
They issue multiple
tranches of debt, including
some with a triple A rating,
whose investors will have
first claim on cash flows
from the underlying loans.
Back in 2006 and 2007,
CLOs were a big part of
the private equity deal
machine. About 70 per cent
of all the loans that were
issued in connection with
buyouts went into these
securitisations, with cost of
capital for issuers and
returns for investors falling
ever lower.
Private equity firms domi-
nate the CLO market,
though they have had more
competition this year as
investor interest has lured
new players. Apollo, Aries,
the Sankaty arm of Bain
Capital, and Carlyle are
among the buyout firms
that have also gone into the
CLO management business,
as a way to increase assets
under management and to
diversify from dependence
on leveraged buyouts when
big deals remain elusive.
Nobody is bigger than
Blackstone. Its debt arm,
GSO Capital Partners, is
the largest CLO manager
in the world, today owning
more non-investment grade
loans than JPMorgan.
Blackstone stands to ben-
efit in many ways if the
CLO revival continues,
because it operates at
almost every link in the
chain, from company
owner, to buyer of loans
and as a fund manager that
invests in its own CLOs.
GSO is planning to
launch an exchange traded
fund that will invest in lev-
eraged loans. It already
runs Carador, a London-
listed fund that buys CLO
debt and equity and is trad-
ing at a premium to net
asset value.
One-third of Caradors
portfolio is invested in GSO-
run CLOs, according to its
most recent monthly filing.
The fund also publishes
details of the largest indi-
vidual companies to which
it is exposed, through loans
held by the CLOs in its
portfolio. Among the top 10
is software group SunGard
Data Systems, in which
Blackstone is part-owner.
Just this month, SunGard
said it would raise $720m to
fund a dividend to its pri-
vate equity backers, includ-
ing Blackstone.
S&P, the rating agency, is
forecasting $55bn in CLO
issuance in 2013, though
some analysts have pitched
as high as $80bn. Several
investment funds have
launched this year to buy
CLO debt and equity, sug-
gesting rising demand.
The reason, according to
Kevin Kendra, head of US
structured credit at Fitch
Ratings, is that the most
highly rated CLO debt per-
formed as expected through
the financial crisis. The
market price of CLO debt
plunged, but fears that
CLOs would perform like
the other structured prod-
ucts were unfounded.
These instruments have
been stellar performers,
says Linda Pace, head of US
structured credit for Car-
lyle. Very little money has
been lost. They can ride out
cycles and are structured to
withstand pain.
News analysis
Collateralised loan
obligation debt and
equity issuance this
year has just passed
$52bn, write
Stephen Foley and
Henny Sender
watched crop forecaster,
this week said US farmers
would plant 99m acres with
corn in 2013. If the planting
forecast held and good
weather allowed for the
development of the crop,
the US could harvest a
monster crop that will put
pressure on prices.
But the price drop could
be shortlived as corn inven-
tories were low and falling
costs would spur demand
from the livestock industry,
analysts said.
Moreover, the weather
remains dry, potentially
hurting planting next year.
Cargill, the worlds larg-
est trading house, has
warned about possible short
supplies and higher prices
at the end of the crop sea-
son in March-April.
But Jack Scoville, of the
Price Futures Group, a bro-
ker in Chicago, said US
corn prices were still rela-
tively high compared with
other exporters, adding that
has expressed concerns
about the economic impact
the automatic cuts and tax
increases would have.
I want be clear that we
cannot offset the full
impact of the fiscal cliff, its
too big given the tools we
have available and the limi-
tations on our policy toolkit
at this point, Mr Bernanke
warned earlier this month.
When UBS polled about
200 global investors at a
recent conference in Zurich,
Switzerland, it found almost
a quarter cited the US fis-
cal cliff and recession
threat as the biggest risk to
global economic stability.
In contrast, the threat of
a eurozone sovereign
default was seen by only
18 per cent as the biggest
danger. People think that
Europe is not a source of
systemic risk any more so
the big, immediate worry is
the fiscal cliff, said
Stephane Deo, head of asset
allocation at UBS.

Iraqs Asiacell will offer 25
per cent of its shares to the
public in a deal that will
value the oil-rich states
second-largest mobile tele-
communications company
at between $4.9bn-$5.5bn.
The offer will be the first
of three mandatory listings
on Baghdads stock market
by Iraqs mobile telecoms
groups, which also include
market leader Zain Iraq and
Korek Telecom.
Asiacell, in which
regional heavyweight Qatar
Telecom has a 54 per cent
stake, will on December 25
announce the price at
which it will begin to offer
shares to the public on Jan-
uary 1 2013, before listing
on the Iraq Stock Exchange
on February 3.
Gulf investors are leading
the charge for one of the
most highly-anticipated
regional equity market
offerings, says Shwan Ibra-
him Taha of Baghdad-based
Rabee Securities, the dis-
tributor and selling agent.
We are getting large
indicative demand from
Gulf investors, as well as
interest from specialised
firms in [the] US and Iraqis
themselves, Mr Taha told
the Financial Times. You
would be quite surprised
how much money there is

paign being run by the Iraqi

The campaign hopes to

has gripped the Gulf states,
where individual investors,
rather than institutions,
dominate stock markets.
Since the fall of Saddam

other companies that do not

MARKETS & INVESTING
Fundamentals
back in focus for
S&P 500 bull run
Wall Street analysts are
renowned for being bullish
and they are not holding
back for 2013.
After a year in which
many were caught off-guard
by a double-digit rise in
stocks, top strategists and
portfolio managers are no
longer underestimating the
resilience of US equities.
To do so though means
first paring back concerns
of the US markets sensitiv-
ity to macroeconomic
events. Those concerns
helped bolster the most
bearish calls on earnings
growth in 2012, which have
proved wildly off the mark.
Adam Parker, Morgan
Stanleys chief US equity
strategist, in his outlook for
next year says a backdrop
of macro risks remains
including the US fiscal situ-
ation, the European debt
crisis and a slowdown in
emerging markets.
But Mr Parker, who had
one of the most bearish
views for the S&P 500 in
2012, says the acuteness of
these issues appears now to
be less sharp.
Strategists at S&P Capital
IQ have called for a 2013
year-end of 1,550 for the
S&P 500, saying stocks
could still benefit if those
risks recede next year.
Still, that recognition has
brought some of the focus
back on to company funda-
mentals. Earnings growth
for the S&P 500 is forecast
at 9.8 per cent while reve-
nues are expected to expand
3.8 per cent in 2013, accord-
ing to FactSet.
Companies on the bench-
mark are seen recording
earnings per share of
$112.70, up more than $10
from the current record
level of $102.56 for 2012.
Drilling down into the
average price targets of
each company in the S&P
500 translates into the index
rising to 1,602.47, a gain of
11.6 per cent from where
stocks currently sit.
Yield-seeking equity
investors in 2012 have
shown strong interest in
high-dividend paying stocks
but a notable laggard has
been the utilities sector.
The sector has dropped
1.7 per cent so far and
remains the only S&P 500
industry measure to reside
in negative territory for the
year-to-date.
The 31 companies in the
sector group pay an average
dividend yield of 4.2 per
cent and strategists say
that is a compelling offer
for investors.
Any income related to
equity exposure is the way
to go in 2013, says Jack
Ablin, chief investment
officer at Harris Private
Bank.
David Mertens, principal
at Jensen Investment Man-
agement, says that, in the
hunt by investors, large div-
idend stocks provide
fair value and are a good
to notch the biggest returns
for the year as accommoda-
tive Federal Reserve mone-
tary policy has helped bol-
ster lenders.
But after leading the
industry groups on the S&P
500 for the year, the sector
must overcome regulatory
pressure and low interest
rate constraints in 2013 to
rise further.
Analysts at KBW say
despite the outperformance
in 2012, financials will con-
This is the final Trading Post
of 2012. So many potential
trading nuggets to impart, so
little time . . . So heres a nice

Go short copper above
$8,500 a tonne, says
Barclays. A Chinese inventory
overhang and recovering
levels of red metal supply
will keep the price in check.
Stock market volatility is
cheap, buy some puts, says
Marex Spectron. Downside
skew [in index options] is
now at levels that have so
far this year always led to
downside in equity markets.
Go long Bunds versus
Treasuries and Japanese
government bonds, argues
Morgan Stanley. The weak
European economy and an
accommodative European
Central Bank provide a
relatively better supportive
backdrop for German paper.
Better US growth will harm
Treasuries, while a more
activist fiscal and monetary
stance in Japan may finally
allow JGB yields to rise.
The Aussie dollar is
already stretched and
terms of trade are likely to
move against the AUD over
the next year, judging by
commodity price forecasts,
says Lloyds. Use the Mexican
peso as a proxy for US
economic outperformance,
selling AUD/MXN, now 13.42,
for a target of 12.00.

US equity resilience
is no longer being
underestimated, say
Arash Massoudi
and Michael
Mackenzie
tinue to trade at a discount
to long-term averages until
economic growth acceler-
ates or expectations of a
rise in interest rates set in.
While rates may not move
in the short run, some say
an accommodative Federal
Reserve may well continue
to be a boon for stocks
in 2013. Investors have
not had to pay a lot of
attention to what they
owned given all the
liquidity efforts of central
banks, says Mr Mertens.
Further support for
stocks may come from
easier year-on-year sales
comparisons after a wave of
companies fell short of fore-
casts for 2012.
Vadim Zlotnikov, chief
market strategist at Alli-
anceBernstein, says the sig-
nificant number of negative
revisions in 2012 to top-line
results will mean that
many companies have a
lower bar to cross. In the
absence of a recession, you
can expect revenue growth
to beat forecasts for many
companies next year.
Still, others lament the
job of setting firm bench-
mark forecasts for the S&P
500. Mr Parker says: We
wish we didnt have to set a
year-end target. Having had
a very accurate one in 2011
and a pretty bad one in
2012, we are living
proof there is a negative
asymmetry.

Russian capital outflows may not be as big as reported
beyondbrics, the FTs emerging markets hub
Huge capital outflows have
been a glaringly visible sign
of Russian business peoples
distrust of president Vladimir
Putins rule, writes Stefan
Wagstyl. Worried about
corruption, property rights
and the rule of law, the rich
have been funnelling their
money abroad. Right?
Wrong, says a study
published this week that
argues Russian outflows are
only half as big as officially
reported, due to peculiarities
in Russias statistics.
Only $40.5bn of the
$80.5bn recorded as net
outflows last year are actual
outflows, says the report,
carried out by the Russian
governments Direct
Investment Fund, Ernst &
Young, the international
accountancy firm, and a
research centre at
Lomonosov Moscow state
university.
The authors deduct from
the official figure more than
$10bn that went into foreign
mergers and acquisitions by
Russian companies; $6bn
spent on purchases of
aircraft registered abroad;
$6bn in foreign bank
subsidiaries support for their
parent groups; $9.9bn in
socalled errors and
omissions; and $7bn$9bn in
funds transferred by Russian
companies into offshore
structures, often created for
reinvesting funds back in
Russia.
Once such adjustments are
made, Russias capital
outflow is comparable to
that of many exportoriented
economies such as Kuwait,
Norway and Japan.
The report also argues that
the standard explanation for
Russias capital outflows
the poor business
environment does not hold
water. The authors say:
there is no significant
statistical relationship
between investment climate
indicators and the [capital
flows] indicator calculated by
the Central Bank of Russia.
Russias deputy finance
minister Alexei Moiseev
praised the report, saying
Russia had to bring its
capitaloutflow calculation in
line with international
standards.
But the central bank is not
rushing to rewrite its
numbers. Central bank
chairman Sergei Ignatiev said
Russias unfavourable
investment climate was a big
factor behind huge capital
flight from the country.
The bank studied other
countries and found Russia
stood out. Most developed
economies saw outflows as
investors looked for
opportunities abroad. Most
emerging nations posted
inflows as they attracted
funds searching for new
opportunities.
Russia falls out of this
logic. This requires
explanation. Net capital
outflow of 4 per cent of GDP
over a period of several
years is a strange thing and
is related to specific Russian
circumstances, including the
unfavourable investment
climate, Mr Ignatiev said,
according to RIA Novosti, the
news agency.
Mr Ignatiev said Russias
capital outflow reached
$59bn in JanuaryNovember
2012 and added that the
central bank was sticking to
its 2012 capital flight forecast
of $60bn$65bn.

Morgan Stanley is to invest
in a futures exchange, in a
sign that big investment
banks are preparing for a
shift away from traditional
over-the-counter deriva-
tives.
The bank plans to make
a strategic equity invest-
ment in Eris Exchange.
Morgan Stanley did not dis-
close the size of its planned
stake but two people famil-
iar with the deal said it
would be a minority.
Eris specialises in swap
futures and was created
by five proprietary trading
firms including Getco, DRW
Holdings and Infinium Cap-
ital Management.
In September the Chica-
go-based exchange won fur-
ther investment from asset
managers Fidelity and State
Street, but yesterdays deal
with Morgan Stanley will
be the first announced
investment in Eris from a
large swap dealer bank.
Its evidence of banks
and dealers and trading
desks leaning into the new
regulatory and market real-
ity thats coming, said
Neal Brady, chief executive
of Eris. Some have chosen
not to adapt to these reali-
ties but I think Morgan
Stanley is seeing the way
the world is evolving.
Derivatives such as inter-
est rate swaps have histori-
cally traded over the coun-
ter (OTC) with investment
banks building the custom-
ised risk management prod-
ucts for their clients in
return for hefty fees. How-
ever, with new federal rules
looming, some market par-
ticipants are forecasting a
shift away from OTC swaps.
The new rules, part of the
Dodd-Frank reform, require
that OTC swaps move to
regulated trading platforms.
As swaps become more
heavily regulated, some
investors are looking to
futures, which can also help
investors hedge their risk
but are more standardised
and easily traded on
exchanges, as a potential
replacement.
As the traditional OTC
rates swap market under-
goes significant structural,
economic and regulatory
changes, Morgan Stanley
believes that Eris Exchange
and its futurised swaps are
ideally suited to provide our
clients with flexible alterna-
tives, said Patrick Haskell,
the banks head of liquid
flow rates in the US.
Morgan Stanley will also
become an anchor bank
liquidity provider on the
Eris platform. That means
the bank will start standing
between futures swap
trades on the platform early
next year.
It does feel like there is a
wave of interest in the
futures model,said a deriv-
atives specialist at a rival
investment bank before
yesterdays announcement
was made.
Morgan Stanley points the way
with Eris Exchange stake plan
The central bank is not in a
rush to rewrite its numbers
backstop for portfolios.
We prefer to favour compa-
nies that are growing their
dividend, he adds.
Jensens current portfolio
includes 29 groups that gen-
erate significant cash flow
with a return on equity of
more than 15 per cent in
each of the past 10 years.
Those calls may prove
timely if investors flee risk-
ier assets in the event US
politicians fail to resolve
the fiscal cliff of spending
cuts and tax hikes set to
kick in on January 1.
Others say even a modest
deal may not prove to be
good enough in the near-
term, says Barry Knapp,
chief US equity strategist at
Barclays.
In spite of a 2013 year-end
forecast of 1,525 for the S&P
500, Mr Knapp warns that
the first significant market
move next year may well be
downward, given the low
probability that Republi-
cans and Democrats settle
on a grand bargain that
puts the US public sector
debt on a sustainable path.
To avoid that, Mr Knapp
is recommending investors
consider technology stocks,
which are set to finish 2012
near the middle of the pack
among industry groups
after a sharp fourth-quarter
sell-off.
To find value, he says,
investors must look beyond
the sectors most favoured
companies, including Apple
and Google, and instead
consider those that could
benefit from a rebound in
corporate spending next
year.
That includes companies
such as Hewlett-Packard
and Intel, which are among
the biggest laggards on the
Dow Jones Industrial Aver-
age in 2012. Financials, led
by regional banks, are set

Equities struggle as f iscal cliff looms again
By Dave Shellock
Renewed uncertainty about
negotiations over the loom-
ing US fiscal cliff left stock
markets on both sides of
the Atlantic struggling for
a clear direction, although a
batch of broadly encourag-
ing economic data offered
some support.
The final reading of US
third-quarter GDP growth
was revised up to 3.1 per
cent from the previous esti-
mate of 2.7 per cent.
Peter Newland, economist
at Barclays, said the details
of the GDP report were
encouraging, with real final
sales growth accounting for
all of the upward revision.
All in all, while GDP
growth is likely to be some-
what softer in the fourth
quarter, the stronger final
sales backdrop in the third
quarter leaves growth on a
solid footing and we expect
the picture of modestly
above potential growth to
remain in place, Mr New-
land said.
There was further posi-
tive news on the US hous-
ing market as data showed
existing home sales climb-
ing 5.9 per cent in Novem-
ber to a three-year high.
The bottom line is
that nothing in todays
data refutes the idea of a
housing recovery and
quite frankly, it serves
to reinforce our more
optimistic views, said
Dan Greenhaus, chief
global strategist at BTIG.
Meanwhile, the Philadel-
phia Federal Reserves
general economic index
jumped to an eight-month
high in December. The
rebound in the Philly Fed
index appears to be due to
factories catching up on the
lost activity caused by
superstorm Sandy in
November, said Paul Dales
at Capital Economics.
The recent improvement
in global demand suggests
that, once the dust of the
storm and fiscal cliff settles,
manufacturing output will
start expanding again. But
the global recovery will
only go so far, meaning that
US manufacturing will not
enjoy a renaissance in
2013.
But the encouraging fig-
ures on the US economy
were overshadowed by fresh
doubts that legislators
would reach agreement on
the US budget in the near-
term.
Philip Marey, senior US
strategist at Rabobank, said
while this weeks develop-
ments in Washington had
been encouraging, negotia-
tions appeared to have
ground to a halt.
However, the ideological
trenches have been left and
the new battlefield is more
about numbers than about
dogmas, he said. That
should give both parties a
good chance to make a deal
on the reduction of the fis-
cal cliff around the turn of
the year.
However, the uncertainty
left the S&P 500 equity
index barely changed at
midday in New York, while
the pan-European FTSE
Eurofirst 300 index edged up
less than 0.1 per cent.
In Tokyo, the Nikkei 225
Average fell 1.2 per cent as
investors booked some prof-
its on the markets recent
strong rally but also showed
some disappointment that
the latest policy move from
the Bank of Japan had not
been more aggressive
The BoJ expanded its
asset-buying programme by
Y10tn, in line with expecta-
tions, but stopped short of
raising its inflation target
for now at least.
On the currency markets,
the yen rallied against the
dollar. But analysts said
any bounce in the yen was
likely to be temporary.
With prime minister-
elect [Shinzo Abe] taking
charge on December 26,
expectations will be high
that the BoJ delivers a
more credible 2 per cent
inflation target in January
keeping the yen under
pressure, said Chris
Turner, head of forex strat-
egy at ING.
The uncertainty over the
US fiscal outlook prompted
modest buying of govern-
ment bonds, with the 10-
year Treasury yield down 1
basis point at 1.79 per cent.
Industrial commodities
retreated, with Brent oil
down 32 cents at $110.04 and
copper sliding 2 per cent to
$7,772 a tonne, its lowest
level in nearly a month.
Gold fell more than 1 per
cent to $1,641 an ounce
amid end-of-year liquidation
by investors, dealers said.

BoJ bond buying lifts yen
CURRENCIES
By Alice Ross
The Japanese yen rose
against other big currencies
after the Bank of Japan
expanded its asset purchase
programme but made no
changes to its inflation tar-
get, dashing hopes the cen-
tral bank would take a
more aggressive stance.
The dollar fell more than
0.6 per cent to hit a session
low of Y83.83 as the BoJ
announced it was increas-
ing its bond-buying scheme
by Y10tn. It later recovered
and was down 0.2 per cent
on the day at Y84.32.
Some had speculated the
central bank could do more
after elections at the week-
end ushered in a new gov-
ernment that has vowed to
get tougher on deflation.
Incoming prime minister
Shinzo Abe has said he
would ask the BoJ to raise
its inflation target from 1 to
2 per cent. The BoJ said it
would reconsider its target
but made no immediate
changes.
Analysts were expecting
the strength in the yen to
be short-lived, however.
The big moves come either
from the appointment of a
new BoJ governor and dep-
uty, or from the Ministry of
Finance, so a BoJ meeting
that delivered more of the
same old policies is not sur-
prising, said Kit Juckes,
foreign currency strategist
at Socit Gnrale.
As such, the pullback in
dollar-yen is likely to be
limited. There are yen sell-
ers on any bounce.
The euro remained sus-
ceptible to developments in
the US as fiscal cliff talks
raged on. The single cur-
rency earlier shrugged off
poor Italian retail sales data
to reach a session high of
$1.3295 against the dollar.
But it was later just 0.1 per
cent higher at $1.3236 and
was 0.1 per cent lower
against the pound at
0.8132.
The Australian dollar
rose towards $1.05 against
the US dollar after falling in
previous sessions, gaining
0.1 per cent to $1.0499.
The euro appears to be
benefiting from position
adjustment heading into
year-end with speculators
cutting back modest short
euro positioning towards
neutral, said analysts at
Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi.
The high beta Australian
and New Zealand dollar
have also underperformed
over the past week despite
improving risk sentiment as
speculators likely trim
record long positions.

NYSE Euronext rises after ICE
to buy exchange group for $8.2bn
By Anora Mahmudova and

NYSE Euronext shares
soared after the global
bourse operator said
it would sell itself to Inter-
continentalExchange, the
futures exchange, in a deal
worth $8.2bn in cash and
shares.
Shares in the operator of
the 200-year-old New York
Stock Exchange rose 33.1
per cent to $32.02.
ICE, a 12-year-old com-
pany, has grown by offering
trading in energy, emis-
sions and commodities as
well as listed interest rate
derivatives, the worlds
largest asset class.
Its shares initially rose
but then dipped 0.9 per cent
to $127.19 by midday in New
York.
Roger Freeman, analyst
at Barclays, said: We
believe there are opportuni-
ties for both companies to
leverage both intellectual
talent and a broader prod-
uct set to grow their busi-
nesses on a combined basis
more than either could do
alone, and certainly interest
rate futures and swaps
appear to be a significant
focus according to manage-
ment.
NYSE-rival Nasdaq OMX
group traded higher on the
news, up 2.7 per cent to
$25.89, while CBOE Hold-
ings, parent company of the
Chicago Board Options
Exchange, rose 4 per cent to
$30.68 as some analysts said
it might be a potential can-
didate in further exchange
dealmaking.
CME Group, the largest
US-based exchange operator
by market value, fell 2.6 per
cent to $51.25. The bench-
mark S&P 500 index was 0.1
per cent higher at 1,437.15.
The Dow Jones Industrial
Average was unchanged at
13,254.18. The Nasdaq Com-
posite lost 0.1 per cent to
3,040.59. Apple, the heaviest
weighted stock on the tech
benchmark, lost 1.3 per cent
to $519.77.
Overall, US equity mar-
kets were muted as positive
economic data were
eclipsed by the pall cast by
the stalled negotiations
over preventing the fiscal
cliff at the end of the year.
The US economy grew
faster than previously fore-
cast in the third quarter,
according to the latest fig-
ures. GDP expanded at a 3.1
per cent annual rate,
revised up from an initial
2.7 per cent. Jobless claims
normalised after surging in
the aftermath of superstorm
Sandy. Initial claims for
unemployment benefits
rose 17,000 to a seasonally
adjusted 361,000, according
to the Labor Department.
In earnings news, CarMax
rose sharply after the used
car retailer reported third-
quarter earnings which
beat Wall Street estimates.
The company cited
improving customer senti-
ment, increased availability
of credit and a larger inven-
tory for a boost in sales.
Shares in CarMax gained
8.8 per cent to $37.91.
ConAgra also rose after
the companys quarterly
earnings beat estimates,
helped by sales in its con-
sumer food business.
The owner of the Healthy
Choice meals brand
reported a 17 per cent
increase in profits. Shares
in ConAgra climbed 1.1 per
cent to $30.29.
In contrast, Bed Bath &
Beyond suffered a sharp
drop as the home furnish-
ings retailer lowered earn-
ings forecasts for the first
quarter of next year. The
shares slid 8.3 per cent to
$55.25.
Shares in Herbalife, the
nutritional supplement
direct seller, came under
pressure for a second day
after hedge fund manager
Bill Ackman confirmed
he was betting against the
stock.
Mr Ackman presented his
arguments yesterday on
why he had a taken a short
position on Herbalife
shares, saying that the com-
