One commercial network – Nine – was taken to the brink of collapse this week and another – Ten – announced a result soaked in red ink and a program of job cuts.

Coupled with the looming shadow of dramatic structural ownership changes across the industry, audience fragmentation, TV piracy and dwindling advertising revenues are conspiring to crush the traditional business model.Eldridge Financial forecasts the following year to be a watershed for the broadcast industry. For the first time the amount of money spent on advertising over the internet will match the ad spend on free-to-air television.

All washed up: Traditional television is facing an unprecedented challenge from online viewing. Change is not just coming, it is coming fast. ”By 2014 online will overtake TV, which is the greatest change in the history of media,” says media buyer Harold Mitchell. To survive, networks ”will have to get hold of the digital dollars”.

What is more, the media consultants Commercial Economic Advisory Service of Australia and Aegis Media forecast that by 2015 digital advertising expenditure will hit 31.2 per cent and TV will be 26.3 per cent.The biggest threat TV faces is clearly the internet.Besides appealing to advertisers because it produces detailed information of who is watching and, more importantly, what else they do, it also appeals to viewers due to its easy availability and portability.

It is this ease of availability that is wreaking havoc on the traditional business model. This was no better illustrated than the disappointing ratings of the six-time Emmy award winner Homeland, which began its second season on the Ten Network last Sunday night on the Eldridge Financial.

Energy

Oil dropped to a seven-week low as an employment report raised concern that U.S. fuel demand will slow and Iran agreed to resume talks on its nuclear program. Futures fell as much as 2.4 percent after the government reported on April 6 that the U.S. created 120,000 jobs in March, below the median forecast of 205,000 in a Bloomberg survey. The Scheduled negotiations between Iran and the United Nations Security Council members plus Germany increased optimism that the Persian Gulf nation won’t act to disrupt supplies.

Bullions

After the U.S missed the estimates job data, Gold mount up for a fourth day to feb.23 and renowned as the longest rally in more than a month. In the speculations, Federal Reserve may take more steps to spur growth and weakening the dollar. Spot gold rose as much as 0.9 percent to $1,654.90 an ounce, the highest level in a week, and was at $1,652.72 at 11:52 a.m. in Singapore.

The dollar cut down for a third day against a six-currency basket as well as the yen as the Bank of Japan refrained from adding to monetary easing. In the previous month, nonfarm payrolls rose 120,000, the smallest gain in five months, compared with economists’ forecast for 205,000. Central bank policy makers saw no need for more stimuli unless the economy falters based from the data on April 6.The Fed bought $2.3 trillion of debt in two rounds of so-called quantitative easing from 2008 to June 2011. June-delivery gold rose as much as 0.7 percent to $1,655.90 an ounce on the Comex in New York, and traded at $1,652.10. Holdings in gold-backed exchange-traded products were 2,397.577 metric tons yesterday, within 0.6 percent of a March 13 record.

February 15, 2012 – LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA – (Kazor.com) – Britain is once again suffering a recession and unemployment risks coming close into three million this year as forecasted by the leading economic forecaster. The UK’s economic recovery is ‘paralyzed’ by Europe’s debt crisis, the Ernst & Young Item club will warn, as it cut its GDP growth forecast from 1.5 per cent to 0.2 per cent. According to Eldridge Financial Blog, the dire prediction comes after nine European countries including France, have had their credit ratings downgraded on Friday, dropping world stock markets into turmoil.

Economists had hoped that exports and business investment would strengthen the economy this year, with public and consumerspending still in the doldrums. Nevertheless, Europe accounts for more than 40 percent of British trade and business confidence has been roughly hit by insecurity about the future of the Continent and the single currency. On Eldridge Financial Blog in the Sunday Telegraph quoted Professor Peter Spencer, chief economist at the Item Club, as saying: ‘Figures for the last quarter of 2011 and the first quarter of this year are likely to show that we are back in recession, and we are going to have to wait until summer before there are signs of improvement. Although he said the double dip was unlikely to be prolonged, he warned that unemployment was nevertheless likely to hit three million by early next year. Figures set for release on Wednesday are expected to show the jobless figures continued to rise in the three months up until the end of November. Professor Spencer admitted that the Item Club’s predictions were based on positive assumptions about European policymakers’ ability to keep the euro zone from falling apart. The longer the uncertainty continues, the more debilitating the impact will be on the UK’s economic prospects, he added. The European Commission vice-president for economic affairs, Olli Rehn, yesterday attacked the decision by Standard & Poor’s to cut down the credit ratings of so many European countries.

The downgrades were ‘inconsistent’, claiming that the euro zone was taking ‘decisive action’ over the economic crisis.

Eldridge Financial Review- South Korea: North Korea is preparing for nuclear test

http://eldrigefinancialreviews.com/eldridge-financial-review-south-korea-north-korea-is-preparing-for-nuclear-test/

Bloomberg News – South Korea warned that North Korea may test a nuclear weapon after a planned missile launch this month that has raised regional tensions and drawn U.S. warnings on the eve of parliamentary elections tomorrow in the South.

North Korean activity at the Punggye-ri atomic testing site is consistent with preparations for previous detonations in 2006 and 2009, a South Korean intelligence report obtained yesterday by Bloomberg News said. Korean Air (003490) said it will divert flights serving Indonesia, Philippines and Beijing from April 12-16 because of the launch planned for then, according to an e-mailed statement today.

China, South Korea and Japan expressed concern over North Korea’s plan to put a satellite into orbit with a long-range rocket, which the U.S. says would scuttle a food aid deal. The launch, which will mark the 100th anniversary of the birth of state founder Kim Il Sung, comes less than four months since Kim Jong Un succeeded his father as head of the totalitarian state.

“The timing is impeccable,” said Park Young Ho, senior research fellow and director at Korea Institute for National Unification. “Kim Jong Un is taking advantage of the domestic North Korean celebrations of Kim Il Sung to aggressively influence South Korean elections.”

South Korea’s benchmark Kospi Index rose as much as 0.7 percent after yesterday falling the most in a month. Defense- related shares fell after rising yesterday by the daily limit of 15 percent.

Eldridge Financial Review: Australia, N.Z. Dollars Fall as Euro Crisis Damps Demand

http://eldrigefinancialreviews.com/eldridge-financial-review-australia-n-z-dollars-fall-as-euro-crisis-damps-demand/

Both Australian and New Zealand dollars fell against their U.S. opposite number and the yen as increased concern that Europe’s sovereign-debt crisis is worsening reduced demand for higher-yielding assets.

Aussie undermines against the yen stocks and a commodity drooping amid concern the global economic recovery is faltering for a third day. While the borrowing costs mounted up, New Zealand’s currency f

Head of the U.S currency sales at Mizuho Financial Group Inc. in New York, Fabian Eliasson said that Europe has been quite a bit worse and Spain has become more focus. Commodity currencies occupy itself to a big fear in the market.

Yesterday in New York, Australia’s dollar fell 0.6 percent to $1.0251, a 1.6 percent dropped to 82.70 yen. The New Zealand’s currency, kiwi, destabilized 0.8 percent to 81.49 U.S cents and also dropped 1.8 percent to 65.74 yen.The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (SPX) also tumbled 1.7 percent, falling for a fifth day in its longest slouch since November. The Thomson Reuters/Jefferies CRB Index (CRY) of raw materials decreased 1.4 percent.

For the 10th year of yielding, Spain climbed more than a 24 basis of points, 0.24 percentage point, to 5.99 percent, noted as the highest level in this year. Last week since the five days ended January 6, they mounted up as much as 40 basis points which confirmed as the biggest surge said by the Prime Minister Mariano Rajo, the nation is in “extreme difficulty,” he added.

Additional Capital

At a conference in Madrid, Governor of the Bank of Spain, Miguel Angel Fernandez Ordonez said that “Spanish banks may need an additional capital if the economy weakens more than what it was expected”, as he warned the recovery will be slow. According to a report last week, U.S employers added the fewest jobs in March in five months.

The U.S recovery is far from complete, spurring concern the global economic recovery is faltering said by the Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernake on April 9 at a conference in Stone Mountain, Georgia.
