The annual transfer window began, but it's not even that of facilitators. In the wake of presidential elections, what are the directions of the various editorial radios and TVs that move the lines. At accounts, those that have failed to boost audiences draw conclusions for their leaders. Albert Ripamonti and just thanked the management of information in the chain i-TV. "Our peak audience was three years ago, before the arrival of Albert Ripamonti. Since we have been falling, "whispers one in the chain. It could be replaced by Celine Pigalle, editor of the Morning of Canal +.

Similarly, Arlette Chabot is moved away from the direction of information on Europe 1, the morning is worth it. Officially, Denis Olivennes, president of Europe 1, and Arlette Chabot agreed at the outset that the journalist would leave the station after the presidential election. But internally, we observe that the "information did not take off at election time, and hearings were held to entertainment."

His successor, Fabien Namias, who had learned his trade in the station of the Rue Francois I, returns after only two years at the helm of the political department of France 2. Thierry Thuillier, head of France Televisions essays, sees no downside: "It's part of the trade, he says. Namias Fabien spent two years here, it serves to further his career payday advance. That's fine. "Europe 1, which has undergone many changes over the past four years, could enjoy the arrival of a man who knows well the drafting and home.

The test of presidential

It is internally that France 2 could find his replacement. Bornstein Gilles, or St. Cricq Nathalie, who invented successfully "Words and deeds," could be promoted. But for Thierry Thuillier, who made the France 2 channel benchmark info, the focus is now elsewhere: "The major issues are now on the side of the economy and Europe and less than that of political . "Similarly, after France 2, Thierry Thuillier is determined to set the course for the info on France 3. And indeed, respecting the saying "we do not change the winning teams' media such as RTL, Radio France, France Televisions BFMTV or retain all their captain who provided effective coverage of political news in recent months . More complicated is the case of TF1 whose service info has pitched terribly wrong after the audience ratings of the presidential election. The first private channel hopes to catch up today with the handover.

The output of the Kindle Fire turns to the correction for all other manufacturers of Android tablets. In February, just four months after its release, the tablet from Amazon in the U.S. represented over half of the market (54.4%), excluding iPad, according to data from comScore Institute released Thursday. His closest competitor was the Galaxy Tab by Samsung, whose share decreased from 23.8% to 15.4% in three months. Other models, such as Motorola Xoom, Asus and Toshiba AT100 Transformer, got only the crumbs.

These data, comScore estimated by using the number of tablets that connect to the Internet every month, have not been confirmed by Amazon. As usual, the maker of the Kindle Fire refuses to give precise sales figures, even if the indicators that are favorable to accumulate. His tablet is "being the best selling, most available and most desired" by customers on Amazon.com, he simply has to announce in the press release accompanying the publication of its quarterly results Thursday.

The excellent launch of Kindle Fire in the United States, the only country where it is sold to date, shows that the market shelves can extend far beyond the iPad. With its 7-inch screen diagonal (17.8 centimeters), its list of functions reduced to essentials (no 3G, no camera, no accelerometer), the Kindle is sold only Fire $ 199, two times less than the first iPad. At the point where we now ready to Apple intends to expand in this segment, by launching an iPad smaller and cheaper.

"Google has lost control of Android tablets"

Hollow, the success of the Kindle Fire also highlights the poor performance of other Android tablets before. Apple sold 35 million iPad last year, against 5,000,000 in 2011 for Samsung, its nearest competitor. The arrival of Amazon is not necessarily good news for Google. Fire Aboard The Kindle indeed deeply modified version of the Android system. "It's official: Google has lost control of the market for Android tablets," headlined the Thursday specialized site Business Insider.

For Amazon, this strategy is paying anyway. As there is already reached in the Kindle eBooks with classical Kindle Fire means it can sell more content in digital format, including films and television series. "Customers buy a lot of content, is seen particularly in North America with sales of cultural goods between the fourth and first quarter which is accelerating," explains the chief financial officer, Tom Szkutak.

Throughout the quarter, according to figures released Thursday, sales of cultural goods on Amazon increased 19% to $ 4.71 billion, while sales of other goods and electronics surged 43 % to 7.97 billion. The good surprise came from the profit, down 35% over the same period last year (130 million), but well above analysts' expectations. Friday, the action progressed over 15% at the opening of the NYSE.

3 Suisses must be patient. Three years after removing nearly 700 jobs a year and a half after the launch of a major modernization plan in 2013, the specialist mail order (VPC) is still not the end of his troubles.

In 2011, the turnover of the group 3 Suisses International (3SI) fell a further 5.6% and the accounts are still in the red. Of course, "this decline is partly explained by the market environment somewhat depressed for clothing," says German Otto vpciste which holds 51% stake (alongside the Family Association Mulliez 44%). But the European leader recognizes that the repositioning of 3SI in losses since 2005, is "a little slow."

Denis Terrien, founder and CEO of Amazon. Fr, arrived in June 2009 with orders for 3SI to instill the spirit internet business that made him still lacking. Born in 1932, the group had made back in 1998, however the entire catalog of its flagship brand online in 2007 and had proposed its first application to control from his mobile phone. But the organization was still oriented around the two "big book" seasonal, declined in line with their promotion system increasingly important.

The figures show that the mutation is far from over: according to our information, the three Swiss have a cumulative loss of 165 million euros since 2008, with another 15 million euros last year. For all consumer brands, the loss would amount to 110 million euros. "It is unlikely that the 3 Suisses reach equilibrium this year, as foreseen in the strategic plan. For this particular reason that Laurence Paganini had to give up CEO in late January to the leader of spoiler, "says a close case.

Delete homes losses

While its competitor La Redoute (Redcats) has already increased from 2 to 10 collections a year, a key element of the transformation, the catalogs remain offseason in three Swiss still largely a work in progress. This explains why the 3 Suisses realize only 66% of their online sales against 78% for La Redoute. The average is 50% for the ten consumer brands 3SI (3 Suisses, Blancheporte, Spoiler, Window Magic …), or 11 points less than the subsidiary of PPR. "The challenge of this evolution to the Internet is to keep its best customers, while attracting new, old, and their loyalty," said Olivier Trouvé, a consultant at Kurt Salmon instant credit reports.

Meanwhile, 3SI continues to suppress outbreaks of losses: the last of its 35 stores closed earlier this year. As the site buy / sell 2xMoinsCher, acquired in 2006. What about its subsidiary, resumed in spring 2010 for his younger clients file, it also pulled the curtain end of January.

The transformation should move faster once the redesign of systems of consumer brands finalized. Group 3 SI has indeed devoted nearly half of the envelope of € 70 million plan to modernize the "largest construction site computer currently in France," according 3SI. The links between trade marks may be tightened in order to promote cross-selling, as is done on the virtual shopping mall lechouchou.com, online since late January. "The IT component is the only site where the three Swiss were up," according to critics.

Become a service provider

3 Suisses are now trying two revolutions at once: to turn into e-trader and service provider for other Internet retailers. More than half of the investments are vested in the building at Hem, near Lille, the "largest database storage and order picking in France," according to 3 Suisses International (SI 3). The warehouse, built next to that of Mondial Relay, covers an area comparable to six football fields and will be operational in October.  

The building, where packages are trademarks of the group to mingle with other online retailers, is the missing of the SI strategy 3, which wants to open its various subsidiaries to external customers. Very optimistic, the group expects to double the number of clients, individuals and professionals to reach 20 million by 2020. At its shareholder Otto, the branch services increased 9% in 2011, exceeding one billion euros. Ikea and Oxylane make their photos in the studios of Quai de l'Image. Mondial Relay manages some 1,200 parcels of e-tailers, as the Relais Colis, a subsidiary of La Redoute.

"The picking is more strategic than other services. 3 Suisses may have difficulty recruiting. Especially since many experts have already invested the niche of Logistics, "said an e-merchant, reflecting the view of many respondents. Even private-sale, real reference in the sector, has decided to delegate the logistics of the Digital Factory, its service company for e-tailers.

Against finance, but not against the big bosses. The Socialist candidate for president, Francois Hollande, has reassured business leaders of the CAC 40, in an interview in Paris Matchpubliée Thursday. He was lampooned in mid-February, their salary increases "of 36% on average in 2010."

As we approach the elections, it has softened its tone. "We will need all the forces for the country's recovery. Therefore, in the aftermath of the presidential election, I will convene the CAC 40 companies, although many of their leaders will not vote for me, he says. I tell them: "You are the spearhead of the French economy. We need you and you need the state. We face together the challenge of recovery of France "."

The Socialist candidate was told by the president of MEDEF, Laurence Parisot, France 2 on Thursday, that the vocation of the employers' association was "to work with any government whatever." Tenors Socialist Party had in fact accused of campaigning for the incumbent president Nicolas Sarkozy free business cards.

Francois Hollande tried several times to reassure the campaign finance and management. Visiting London, and then he gave himself to enemy "the world of finance," he said at the City he was not "aggressive" and that n ' there was "nothing to fear" if elected.

Still, the Socialist candidate wants to increase the effective tax rate of 35% in large groups and, among other things, against the practice of stock options. "France seems to bring out the multinationals," said Denis Kessler, CEO of Scor, quoted by The Economist. For the second consecutive week, the weekly British Liberal lampooned the socialist project to tax at 75% marginal bracket the higher incomes of over one million euros.

The German Cabinet Wednesday approved the European fiscal pact signed by EU leaders last week. But this is only the beginning of a new showdown to Angela Merkel. For the Chancellor must obtain a two thirds majority in the German Parliament to ratify the treaty, which induces a change in the fundamental law, the Constitution. And the opposition, whose votes will be required by, has already set his conditions to his joining in a letter to the government.

The Social Democrats, like the Greens, calling for the inclusion in the pact of measures to promote growth and employment, and conditions approves the introduction of a tax on financial transactions at least in the eurozone.

Was a hard blow to the Chancellor: his liberal coalition partners oppose wind at both. As for the ratification of the second aid package to Greece in February, his own most risk of it failing again. Disavowal of a new politically weaken to the point of projecting his center-right coalition on the verge of bursting.

The opposition does not hide his satisfaction. "The Chancellor is committed in a losing battle. She was eleven weeks of exciting domestic politics before it! ", Says Thomas Opperman, one of the leaders of the SPD parliamentary group in the Bundestag.

Godsend for Holland

The Bundestag must ratify the text at first reading in late May, before it is finally adopted, always in the Bundestag, three weeks later. However, the opposition did not rein as frank as it wants in negotiations. Because it can ill afford to vote no to a deal supported by an overwhelming majority of Germans thrilled to see the Germanic discipline imposed on the rest of the euro area. Moreover, early elections would focus again Merkel at the chancellery under all the polls.

Inspired by Berlin, the fiscal pact, which comes into force on 1 January 2013, commits the 25 countries of the European Union signatories (of 27) to more fiscal discipline. It generalizes the "golden rule" which requires states to balance the budget. Pillar of the new European economic governance, this text is seen as the essential counterpart to the German financial solidarity towards the most vulnerable countries.

Embarrassing for Angela Merkel, the conditions imposed by the German opposition to ratification of the treaty are a boon to Francois Hollande, who has promised to renegotiate the pact if elected president. But the rallying of the German Social Democrats stops there. The views of the French Socialists on the role of the European Central Bank continue to arouse the greatest suspicion to the SPD.

"FILE – Crisis: the fear of debt

For what will probably be his last European summit before running for a second term as president, Nicolas Sarkozy could not escape the exercise of stock. Friday the signing of the pact of fiscal discipline, contrived with Angela Merkel, has provided him with the argument: "We're not out of the economic crisis, but we're turning the page of the financial crisis." .. ……

Garden side, the summit without chips seems to end two years of debt crisis. Greece climbs out of the rut, the other countries of the euro will provide the means to finance their debt markets through the "firewall" financial, and the common currency is based on an own last fiscal governance .

The time to relax is actually financial. The France borrows at interest rates lower and – the president is delighted – the differential with Germany was "closer to historic lows." Any risk is spread? "I will not allow myself to say. There is no 100% guarantee. We thank you is always a tragedy. " Or maybe an election

.

Side yard, however, is the looming recession and the new Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy took it upon himself to embody the danger. The ink barely dry on budget pact, he said he does not comply with the spirit: Friday Madrid has set a fiscal deficit target of 5.8% of GDP, well beyond the 4.4% for 2012 agreed with its European partners. The slippage Spanish adds to the disorder of Brussels, already shaken by the announcement Thursday of a similar drift in the Netherlands. Another crisis does not seem so far away already.

"Temptation liberal"

Regarding means of a return to growth, the European team seems equally divided paydayloans. In fiscal harmonization desired by Paris and Berlin opposes deregulation of services and labor market driven by London, with the reinforcement now in Rome and Madrid. Once again, David Cameron a "frustrated" by the Franco-German immobility had a scrap with Nicolas Sarkozy worried by the return of the "liberal temptation." The summit declaration indicates a match virtually nil. But the French president welcomed the "return to Europe," British Prime Minister, after falling out of the fiscal pact in December.

The day of reckoning is also the one to draw a roadmap for the future. Whatever the outcome of presidential elections, Nicolas Sarkozy has no plans to run for a European mandate. "From the heart not, under any circumstances, either now or later, he quips. I do not have the qualities to be an excellent President of the European Council. Herman van Rompuy is already doing. As for José Manuel Barroso, understand that I can not compare myself! "The head of the Commission will assess the scratch.

If it does not nourish ambition in Brussels, the president surely has for France and for a second term: "I still have something to do five years in Europe, 'says he told reporters. "We put in place tools. We now use the full. "Among his war-horses, he cites jumble of European defense, a true industrial policy, competition, the Mediterranean, and immigration.

The salary, all countries are not on the same wavelength. The annual survey of international recruitment firm Robert Walters (*) shows the differences. In 2011, it was better to work in Germany or Brazil in the UK.

Germany, China, Brazil, Australia have indeed seen increased hiring and salaries of managers. The United Kingdom registered a decrease in compensation of 10%. In France, the pay increase was zero. The observation conceals extremes.

"In the first quarter, experienced managers have benefited from the carrier dynamics and wage inflation, making up two years of stagnation, and that in all trades and all sectors, says Antoine Morgaut, CEO Continental Europe and Latin America by Robert Walters. September marked the return of uncertainty. Recruitments were maintained in a market where demand frameworks has become structural, but overall the catch was interrupted. "

Premium experts

Only to take their game, the experts benefited from strong market demand shortage. Some, such as actuaries, consolidators, internal auditors, risk managers in banking, compliance officers, … SAP specialists have seen their wages increase to 25%. In middle management growth reached 10% on average. "Every year the valuation of experts working on niche markets is increasing," says Antoine Morgaut.

Meanwhile, salary ranges have tightened over the 10 years of experience and senior management, although with few peaks. A qualified actuary in 2011 (7 to 12 years of experience) for example has won between 75 and 115K € (**), a bank compliance officer (over 12 years experience) € 80 to 150K, a manager program in real estate from 60 to 110K € (6-10 years experience).

In 2012 the uncertainties, companies should be ungenerous earlier this year. Salaries will follow inflation, the bonus will be measured, rarely more than 15%, and very individualized, "because we can not afford to lose excellent employees or pass very good profiles," says Antoine Morgaut. Overall, the variable will range between 5% and 30%.

Results which are crippling the morale of the French managers: 48% now feel a loss of purchasing power. And comparing global employment should not give them a smile. According to a range of functions held by Robert Walters, France is down-banding, just ahead of Spain. The gap with Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium reached 20% to 30%. The DRH China and Australia, the Brazilian financial controllers are placed at the top and widen the gap.

"Sedimentation of frustration is high among French executives. At the slightest tremor positive they monnayeront shortage. The most spoiled in the coming years will undoubtedly experts, "said Antoine Morgaut.
