Within Latin America, Mexico has always been a privileged country to be at the forefront of many technological advances, as well as having developed cities, the birthplace of major companies and even give a boost to initiatives in ecology, sustainable development and more.

In all these activities, business has been an essential part of national development, to enable trade national, regional and international organizations with all types of players.

As normally happens in many other countries, economic development does not occur equally in all regions of a country and economic growth in Mexico has performed in several cities, but among them, Mexico City and Monterrey undoubtedly occupy the first two places, both by number of inhabitants, as purchasing power, share of GDP, and so on.

The government, which is a euphemism, has estimated the new budget presented in October, based on a barrel of oil at $ 40 and estimates a GDP increase of 2 percent with inflation at between 23 and 25 percent for next year.

Nothing is further from the truth. First, the obvious government or hides the impact of inflation on the relative increase of 28% of budget compared to the previous year while the underestimates by placing in 25% when surely be much closer to 30% which implies that the budget is actually lower than the current year and this will force the use of “other sources” of funding, which has become his favorite sport.

Also the “euphemism” hides what to do with the price differential between the $ 40 projected in the budget and the current oil price, which moves, with an upward trend, around $ 70 for the Venezuelan basket. Although it is not difficult to imagine the fate of this differential. Read the rest of this entry »

This article will show a brief personal reflection on the current American economic situation.

The expectations of growth in Latin America over the past decade were fueled by a naive illusion competitive. For most of our leaders was quite obvious that just opened commercially was once synonymous with success and imminent, hence the high expectations that were formed on the opening process in Latin America. However, the institutional framework and the actual preparation of our countries was insufficient, and even one might think that the logic of market mechanisms of state intervention concepts and Industrial Policy passed from the scene for several years. Today seems to be consensus to say that the processes of globalization are increasing the gap between the developed and the developing world.

Our collective unconscious soon showed their destructive reach the end saturated domestic markets for imported goods which are not always supposed good quality and thousands of unemployed and bankrupt companies, only until then did the studies of the impact of the opening in the small medium and large companies, which were quite revealing and some unexpected. In this must include the operation of distribution networks and the problems of speculative financial weakness showed the American and our inability to respond adequately to the challenges of opening, with the consequent disruption in the aggregate production and employment.

Right now the best option is to rent.
There is no comparison of quality of life among those who are mortgaged to 25 or 30 years and those that are for rent.

The rent is no contribution expenses.

The costs of reforms or failure are borne by the owner.

If you find bad neighbors, just change apartment.

If one of the two becomes unemployed and can not afford the current, you can switch to a cheaper.

In France and Germany dominated the rent above the purchase. There must be some.

Choose to purchase only if a unique or if you have the most money in the cost of the floor. Interest rates will rise again. Mortgage in 30 years a lot can happen.

Attention because at different times, the media in general and on all other interested developers and alert us that it is the right time to buy. CASE NI.

In Japan before and during the fall of the floors (between 60% and 80%) fired several times the false news that had to buy. (False sense of lowering of the floors).
(Remember that Japanese interest rates are at 0.10%)

Here in Spain, it is likely that those who do not need it do not sell and is merely waiting to raise the demand to sell at least the same price they bought. This situation is worse, because the story instead of dropping in a quick adjustment, will do likewise, the same percentage, but very slowly, and the stalemate could last years.

As the stock market could only expect a drop in case of catastrophic news (bombings, etc.) or if the economy returns to fall sharply.
Perhaps the debt crisis spread to England and the U.S., more indebted countries Spain, and there would be the end point.

Moreover, we are at the right time to make contributions by equal periodic (monthly, pending a long-term rise of the bag)

For those operating in the short term, to say that institutions are selling and there are quite a lot of volatility, so the best are the sale and oscillators indicate overbought: RSI, MACD, Momentum, etc..
