GM car is a big band in United State. The GM’s company has share or stock, which value 18 billion dollar, and there are 365 million shares. Each share values 26 to 29 dollar, and the last 60 million shares valued 50 dollar. In the third quarter GM believes that they will gain a lot of money from selling car. Government came out to control the company because GM in the past have crisis on financial. Government needs to give a hand to stay the company which costs 50 billion dollar. All Government money helps GM company a lot but GM still under US treasury. At first, GM was going to get bankruptcy. People said that GM is a good band because GM car is quality. In the near future shares of GM are going to increase over 50 dollar.


I think that GM is a luxury car because it has a good design or it was my type, and the think that government gives a hand to help GM because they know that GM is quality and strong. I believe that it becomes popular in Thailand in soon.

Gold at fresh record high

Gold at fresh record high
In recently year, Gold became one of all investment to gain benefits in near future but there are many factors increasing gold price. Gold is an expensive resource from nature because Gold needs many centuries to form many kinds of mineral together. Gold was formed into accessory instead of other product because it is rare.



Gold price is up to 1400 dollar per ounce because of high price of gold, Federal Reserve have to decrease dollar’s value. There are several factors to make gold’s price high, and the biggest factor among all factor is oil’s price. When oil price is grown up, every product’s price is grown up including gold. In London, Gold price is increasing 0.02 per day, and it happened about 2 year and continued until today. According to increasing of gold’s price, Gold is demanded by big investors. Also, other commodities price is increasing with oil price and gold such as copper, sugar, cotton and else. India fears increasing sugar price because it is main export of India. If sugar price grow up, people demand is decreasing.



In my opinion, gold is one of factors needed to control because there are many effects from gold price. Government should come out and control selling gold over price.

Game changes in quest for low-cost sources

In recently year, many companies faced financial crisis all around the world. They need new strategy to run the company. There are many non expectable problems in markets so several countries expect to settle their company into the right place, which save money from their pocket. China was an only country, where located in uncountable resource.



In China, Beijing, global companies want to reduce the cost of materials in order to gain more advantages. In this point, China has very low material so many foreign countries choose so business with China. Even though, labor price and finance crisis increased but demand from foreign counties didn’t decrease. They want to find place where is low cost of labor. Many countries have open opportunity to everyone to invest their money on the countries, and they use their countries sourcing as avail to attract people. All around the world countries already did something to make their business receiving the most benefits. Company, who access to the local markets, must receive better advantages, and they move their supplies so flexibly. They must plan how to move their supplies if they face some problem such as shipping delay.

Game changes in quest for low-cost sources
In my opinion, I think every company has their strategy but located in wrong place. Those companies got so much troubles such as spend much money more than other countries. China got good marketing because it is an only country, which has no finance crisis.
