  • (1888PressRelease) November 10, 2010 - In spite of the strong recovery in the second half of the year, Taiwan's economy still shrank by 1.9% in 2009. The government expects GDP to grow 4.7% this year, an upward revision from its previous forecast of 4.4% growth. With rising new orders Taiwan's economy has entered a sustained expansion cycle.

    Taiwan's exports rose 75.8% in January to US$21.75 billion from US$12.37 billion a year earlier and imports in January more than doubled to US$19.25 billion from US$8.97 billion a year earlier.

    Taiwan had a trade surplus of US$2.49 billion in January, bigger than the government forecast of a US$1.93 billion surplus. The island had a trade surplus of US$1.65 billion in December.

    Taiwan will lower investment barriers for its technology companies to do business in China. This sector is the latest to benefit from tighter economic ties between the mainland and the island.

    Shaw Capital Management - New Economy - Although we have seen an explosive decade of growth and cycle in the economy, the bombs have been filtered out leaving the economy poised for steady and certain growth. Smart money is now wise to the problems the past few years, lessons have been learned, and the best investments are now at hand.

    We have seen extraordinary growth in technology, but at the same time a buffering and selection process in industry. Although the infrastructure is stable for the moment, there are new technologies emerging, which would otherwise have been lost in the chaotic trends of recent times. This settling of the infrastructure will allow these new technologies to become visible more easily, but fast response time is critical.

Based on the stabilized infrastructure and upswing and recovery in the economy, business is poised for an explosive period of growth as smart money now focuses in on those business models and innovations designed for success. These select companies are key to your financial growth and your future wealth.

    But how to determine which companies are the movers. Short term trends only show day to day trading and market momentum. These are important indicators to a markets early acceptance of a company. The real key is having industry knowledge, and understanding how a company fits into the evolving New Economy over time.

    What is required is a group of professionals working together sharing, discussing, and evaluating those market trends and the companies which will be filling the needs of industry over time.
