According to research by Pew Internet , 55% of U.S. adult cell phone owners use their mobile phones to access the internet, nearly double the rate from three years ago. This means that more than half of your prospective customers may interact with your business while they’re on the go. Mobile users are also becoming more engaged: a study by digital ad management company Marin Software revealed that its clients saw Google paid-search clicks on mobile devices rise from 14.2% to 23.4% over the course of 2012.

Once you’ve found the right employees , how do you convince them to drop what they’re doing and join your company? There are a few key factors that matter most to early stage startup employees, and these are often the reasons that employees join startups in the first place . So, if you can show your top candidates how you can offer them those things, you’ll have a much better chance of people coming on board. Here are the four important aspects of your company you’ll want to showcase throughout the interview and hiring process.

The report shows that in general, most countries studied have actually already made a lot of progress in addressing the increasing age-related spending compared to 2010, even though a lot of work remains. One of the most striking aspects of the report is the progress seen in Italy. In a hypothetical no-policy-change scenario, Italian general government net debt in 2050 would stand at 48% of GDP, whereas the 2010 report put the number at closer to 300% and the figure stood at 114% in 2010. In this scenario, the Italian long-term rating would improve from the current BBB+ to the double-A category by 2050 (it would improve to triple-A in a scenario, in which Italy would reach a general government balance in 2016). By reference, in a no-policy-change scenario, of the 50 countries studied (including all the major economies) only Latvia and Sweden would have similar ratings, while Switzerland would still command a AAA-rating. Further, in this scenario, e.g. Germany would be rated triple-B, while France, Finland, the Netherlands, the UK and the US would all have their ratings in the speculative grade category. The reason for the good Italian performance is the small rise in Italian age-related spending. According to the report, Italy spent 24.5% of GDP in age-related spending in 2010 (pensions, health care, long-term care and unemployment benefits), notably above the 18.8% median for advanced economies. Even though the old-age dependency ratio is seen to rise from 30.8% in 2010 to 56.3%, the report argues the policy changes Italy has already done would lead the age-related spending to rise only to 26.5% of GDP by 2050. By comparison, the median for the group of advanced economies would rise to 24.9% of GDP, again in the no-policy-change scenario. Such a report is naturally very sensitive to the assumptions used, while the no-policy-change scenario is no forecast, as hopefully most countries will react to the threating debt trajectory, before crisis hits. One should thus not put too much faith in the long-term numbers. Anyway, it is worth remembering that everything is not as it seems at first sight. One should not forget all the progress made, even though a lot of work remains. We are not all doomed among aging populations, but tough policy action needs to be taken. A triple-A rating for Italy seems quite far-fetched at the moment ? then again, so did a tripling of Greek bond prices last spring.

This was the answer from current Premier Li Keqiang, when he was asked whether the Chinese key figure could be trusted. Creative data-making in China is hardly any news. However when China has become larger and more integrated in the global economy, it is not acceptable that the number one watched macro figure is merely a laughingstock. In our newly published Economic Outlook , March 2013, we raised concerns about the increasing gap between China’s national and local GDP figures. This analysis provides a deeper insight into the issue and why we believe the sentiment may have changed. Amy Yuan Zhuang Nordea Research Thu, 21 Mar 2013 11:05:54 +0100 http://research.nordeamarkets.com/en/2013/03/20/fed-not-ready-to-stop-the-party-just-yet/ As widely expected, the Fed left its policy and forward guidance unchanged at today?s FOMC meeting. Thus, the central bank repeated its intention to buy USD 40bn of agency mortgage-backed securities and USD 45bn of longer-term Treasuries per month until the outlook for the labour market improves substantially. Regarding QE3 there was no change in the wording of the statement to signal plans to scale down the Fed?s asset purchases yet. Thus, the statement repeated that the programme will continue if ?the outlook for the labor market does not improve substantially,? while also taking ?appropriate account of the likely efficacy and costs of such purchases?. For now, there is still too much uncertainty as also underscored by the FOMC, repeating that it continues to see downside risks to the economic outlook. Clearly the new flare-up in the Euro-area crisis is a concern, but also the continued, although significantly diminished, US fiscal risks are likely reasons why the Fed is not ready to begin pulling back on stimulus yet. There was no change to the Fed?s forward rate guidance. Thus the Fed still anticipates that the fed funds rate will be kept unchanged at least as long as the unemployment rate remains above 6.5%, inflation between one and two years ahead is projected to be no more than 2½%, and longer-term inflation expectations continue to be well anchored. The only change in the FOMC statement was a nod to the economy being better than what the FOMC saw six weeks ago. The unemployment projection for Q4 2015 was revised marginally lower, to 6.25% from 6.3% (mid-point). Based on a linear interpolation, unemployment will not fall to 6.5%, the level at which the Fed officials has suggested they will begin to consider raising rates, until around June 2015, the estimates show. This is only a few months earlier than suggested by the December FOMC estimates and hence still consistent with no rate hike at least until late 2015 (see chart). Our own forecast is that the unemployment rate will reach the new 6.5% threshold sooner than the Fed projects, but not until around Q4 2014, which is still a long way off. The unemployment rate has been falling faster than expected by Fed officials, resulting in gradual downward revisions over the past 1½ year (see chart). Overall, expecting an orderly resolution to the remaining US fiscal issues and a return to positive growth in the Euro area, we still call for an end to QE3 by the end of this year. The signal from the Fed of tapering down of its asset purchases, expected around mid-2013, is likely lead to a further steepening of the yield curve. The minutes of the FOMC meeting will be released on 10 April.         Johnny Bo Jakobsen Nordea Research Wed, 20 Mar 2013 19:41:12 +0100 http://research.nordeamarkets.com/en/2013/03/20/nordea-webtv-slow-recovery-in-the-eurozone/ The Eurozone has started a slow recovery, but the recovery is fragile.

Up to now we have been expecting that upward pressures on inflation would eventually convince the Fed to tighten monetary policy aggressively, starting with the first rate hike around mid-2014. We still believe that increasing inflation pressures are in the pipeline, but our thinking on the implications for the monetary policy outlook has evolved since the introduction of the Fed?s numerical thresholds for policy guidance in December. Thus, along with Fed Vice Chairman Yellen?s recent aggressively dovish signals the new thresholds have shifted our view of how forceful the Fed intends to be in supporting the economy well into the recovery, recognising that the bank is deliberately heading toward inflation somewhat above its 2% longer-run target for a number of years to make up for when inflation averaged below target during past years. Against this background we have decided to postpone the expected first rate hike from mid-2014 to Q1 2015. Following the first hike, however, we still see the Fed raising rates rather aggressively, although slightly less than earlier assumed, with something along the lines of a cumulated 200 bp hike per year in order to contain inflation. Due to the strength of underlying fundamentals in the economy and an elevated structural level of unemployment we still expect the US yield curve to continue steepening over the coming year or so as markets price in higher inflation. Our expectations of increasing inflation pressures and a relatively aggressive Fed tightening cycle are not in market prices. So, longer out we still see higher market rates than currently discounted. With unemployment projected to fall to 7¼% by the end of this year we stick to calling an end to QE3 by end-2013. The signal from the Fed of tapering down its asset purchases, expected around mid-2013, is also likely to steepen the yield curve. Johnny Bo Jakobsen Nordea Research Tue, 19 Mar 2013 09:10:06 +0100 http://research.nordeamarkets.com/en/2013/03/19/the-us-ready-for-lift-off/ With much improved economic fundamentals and significantly diminished policy risks the stage is set for a much stronger US economy in 2013 and 2014, but not without bumps along the road.   We expect the economy to expand by 1.9% in 2013, which is actually quite positive considering the weight on growth from fiscal austerity. Absent the fiscal drag, we would be forecasting 3½-4% growth in 2013. In 2014 we see GDP growth at 2.8%, despite only slightly less fiscal drag next year.   The stronger momentum is expected to be rather broad-based as both household and business sector fundamentals are much improved. Thus, private sector deleveraging seems over and even households might be done reducing debt. Initially, however, the acceleration in aggregate demand is expected mainly to be driven by stronger business investment and continued strength in residential investment.   But the road to recovery is not without bumps. Thus, due to end of the payroll tax cuts, higher gasoline prices and significant across-the-board federal spending cuts, which began on 1 March, GDP growth is seen slowing from a 2¾% pace in the current quarter to around 1% in Q2. However, as the effect of these shocks starts to fade the economy is likely to gain more momentum in H2 2013 and through 2014.   With the business cycle adjustment seen more or less completed in late 2014, inflation pressures are projected to increase gradually. The first Fed rate hike is now expected in early 2015.

Thus, we see the central bank repeating its intention to buy USD 40bn of agency mortgage-backed securities and USD 45bn of longer-term Treasuries per month until the outlook for the labour market improves substantially. We expect no changes to the Fed?s forward rate guidance. The FOMC is likely to recognise the recent strong economic data with a modest upward revision to its GDP growth forecast and a downward revision of its unemployment forecast. However, due to the Euro-area crisis and continued, although significantly diminished, US fiscal risks, the committee is expected to repeat that it continues to see downside risks to the economic outlook. That said, expecting an orderly resolution to the remaining US fiscal issues, we still call for an end to QE3 by the end of this year. The signal from the Fed of tapering down of its asset purchases, expected around mid-2013, is likely lead to a further steepening of the yield curve. However, we expect no major markets movements in the wake of next week?s FOMC meeting.

There are a few good reasons for being silent / not writing regularly and that’s the following: Development on Heroes & Generals We are working hard right now on finishing up a major build, probably one of the biggest we’ve done in a long time. This is very exciting and I’ve been working throughout evenings regularly for a while now. I can’t wait till this build gets wrapped up and shipped out to players. Press Event, Open Beta announcement and PAX East Just before we announced the Open Beta of Heroes & Generals, we brought in media from various countries in Europe. I was part of the demonstration and interviews. This was very exciting and very different from my day to day work in the company! This suddenly lead to me being presented with the opportunity of going to PAX East in Boston to present the game to the American press and I accepted this offer on the spot! So from the 22nd to the 24th of March, I’ll be doing interviews at PAX East! The year 2013 I think this year will be just as exciting as 2012 was and I’m really looking forward to what’s going to happen! This is also a year where I’ll try to add more development related posts, since they seemed to draw a lot of attention and I like to help people figure out issues with various programs! Hsjakobsen Objects of Interest Wed, 13 Mar 2013 23:26:47 +0100 http://research.nordeamarkets.com/en/2013/03/13/strong-irish-bond-launch-tells-us-much-more-than-the-weak-italian-auctions/ Today?s Italian auction results did not impress. The amount sold was towards the upper end of the indicated guidance, but the bid-to-cover ratios of just below 1.3 were low, even by Italian standards. Still, the risk of an Italian auction actually failing looks remote, and one should not give too much weight to the performance of individual auctions. Italian troubles will be reflected first on secondary markets, not on weak auction demand. Going forward, the uncertain Italian political situation will act as a burden for Italian bonds. As no easy solutions are likely to be found, Italian yields could soon start to creep higher again. Syndicated bond launches, in turn, give us much more information about the underlying demand, as much more statistics are published in general. In addition, real money investors are normally much more active in syndicated bond issues, which also have bigger sizes. Accordingly, the new syndicated 10-year benchmark from Ireland is a much stronger signal. Even though we do not know all the details yet, the price guidance has been tightened already (to 245bp over mid-swaps), while orders are reported to have risen to more than EUR 7bn (and continue rising). The strong Irish comeback thus continues, and the country is another step closer to meeting also the ECB?s definition of full bond market access. Market conditions, in general, remain favourable for new issues.

This is one of the lessons to draw from the Italian election. Now in Germany a protest movement has been founded, the ?Alternative für Deutschland? (AfD). Its most important objective is to get Germany out of the Euro area. While we don?t expect this to have any immediate market impact, it stresses once again the internal divisions within the Euro area and why spreads will continue to be volatile. Opinion polls indicate that around one out of three Germans would favour re-introducing the D-Mark, while one out of four would consider voting for a party advocating DExit. Reason enough to take a look at this movement and its implications. Even if AfD might not make it to the general election on 22 September, it could still have an impact on how the government acts in the euro crisis. The rationale for the emergence of this movement is the widespread discomfort with the ?rescue-policy? of the CDU/FDP government, which usually gets support from the main opposition party SPD. Bailing-out Greece, bailing-out banks, setting up the ESM ? on several occasions, Chancellor Angela Merkel?s explanations basically boiled down to: TINA (There Is No Alternative), if possible chaos is to be avoided. In fact ?alternativlos? was chosen ?un-word? of the year 2010. Putting the common currency into question is politically incorrect, a no-go area for (most of) the representatives of the established parties. A large number of people challenge this view and this is where the AfD fits in. For the moment, the AfD is more a movement than a party. The party is planned to be officially founded on 14 April. Depending on how much support ? also in terms of funding ? it gets, it will decide whether to run for the general election. AfD supporters are mostly conservative and liberal intellectuals. One of AfD?s chairmen (speakers) is a former journalist from Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, another one a professor for economics. Among the supporters are businessmen, some former high-ranking civil servants and many professors, some of which have been lobbying against the euro for many years. No clowns or comedians as far as I know. One of the most prominent supporters is Hans-Olaf Henkel, former President of the very influential Federal Association of German Industries and Chairman of IBM, a frequent face on German television. On its homepage ( https://www.alternativefuer.de/ ), the AfD strikes a dramatic tone, talking about the ?most severe crisis? in the history of the Federal Republic, caused, as they see it, by the introduction of the euro. The AfD advocates among other things: An orderly break-up of the Euro area. ?Germany does not need the euro. The euro does harm to other countries?. The re-introduction of national currencies or the creation of smaller currency unions A European Union based on national sovereignty and competition, basically along the lines of David Cameron?s speech last January A shift of power back to national parliaments and away ?from Brussels? More elements of direct democracy (like a referendum on important issues). Today is too early to speculate about a possible election result for the AfD. It is by no means sure that it will fulfil the various criteria to take part in the election. For example, a party has to prove its will to be an active part of the political landscape for longer and it must provide several thousand signatures of supporters. For the regional elections in Lower Saxony, the movement cooperated with the ?Free Voters?, gathering just 1.1% of the vote. Some members of the AfD seem to get applause from the very right wing of the political spectrum.  So for various reasons the movement might get marginalized or derailed soon. But let?s suppose that doesn?t happen. In this case, I would expect the AfD to get quite a lot of media attention. Its representatives will write articles and will be invited to political discussion shows on TV. They will try to broaden their spectrum of supporters to include more non-academics and they might also come up with charismatic speakers and a powerful internet campaign. As is it a conservative/liberal movement, both CDU and FDP (already struggling in opinion polls) have most reason to fear the AfD rising. A logical reaction for the government would be 1) to depict the AfD as a group of irresponsible people acting against German interests and 2) to cut the ground under the newcomers? feet by toughening its policy when it comes to euro crisis management. Germany could harden its stance on a banking union, it could push for more reforms and more austerity at the very moment when Italian voters just said no to and France seems unwilling to say yes. The conclusion so far is, that political uncertainty could rise in Germany (and maybe other core countries), with obvious impacts on financial markets. For the moment, the ECB provides a backstop. But as it has been said many times, the ECB can just buy time that governments should use wisely. Remember that the Euro area is not at all an ?optimal currency area?. The macro mechanisms to cope with shocks and to correct imbalances ? labour mobility and nominal deprecations/appreciations of currencies ? are just not existing. And because of that, it is even more important that Europe finds a common political strategy about how to find back to growth. How much austerity is needed? How should the burden of the unavoidable adjustment process be shared between creditor and debtor countries? As long as voters have to wait for convincing answers, they will seek comfort with protest movements.

Also in the rumor mill are larger photos and image-based ads. Mashable will be on site at Facebook headquarters for the event, which kicks off at 1:00 p.m. ET/10:00 a.m. PT.

Draghi?s statement was more or less unchanged in its wording compared with the statement a month ago. As expected, the staff projections were only marginally down and Draghi stressed that this was due to the weaker starting point rather than a weaker outlook. And, Draghi had no help for Italy: ? We live in democracy.? At the Q&A, Draghi said that a rate cut had been discussed, but that the prevailing consensus was to keep the key interest rates unchanged. All in all, Draghi remains dovish but more weakness is needed to make the ECB cut rates. The new staff projection sees the mid-point for growth 0.2% points lower both this year and in 2014. Draghi said that this downward revision is mostly due to the weak Q4 GDP numbers, which means the starting point is lower, and that the profile for growth going forward is more or less unchanged. This does not explain the lower 2014-growth forecast, though. The ECB still sees downward risks to growth. The new staff projection for inflation is slightly down in 2014, but the ECB sees risks to inflation as balanced. Draghi said that hard data on average are disappointing, but that survey data point towards recovery. Draghi?s label was ?dichotomy? . During the coming months, it should become evident if hard data or survey data are right, and, in turn, if the ECB will cut its refi rate. If the ECB (and we) are right that hard data will improve gradually in line with the current indications from the survey data, additional rate cuts will most likely not be needed. Should survey data start weakening again, however, we have no doubt that the ECB would cut its refi rate ones or twice. For now, we are fairly content with our baseline view on the ECB. However, there are certainly risks that we may be disappointed about the pace of hard-data improvements once again and hence we still see a significant risk of a rate cut during Q2.
