Current Aluminum Market Analysis Figures Indicate Impending Changes

For the past six month the aluminum market has been enduring a steady decline in profits which has left investors looking for a bottom that experts predict is in fact approaching. It was a decline in the U.S. economy, coupled with a recent spike in oil prices, along with energy costs as a whole that were the major factors that contributed to this trend.

Other factors such as global supplies have also figured in heavily as well. However; certain impending market trends are expected to bring relief to investors according to aluminum market analysis figures that have been recently compiled.

Market analysts that predict an early end to the current economic down turn in the second half of 2008 are indicating that they expect a rebound in aluminum demand at a time when global supplies should be significantly lower than they have been in the past.

One area of manufacturing that is expected to show an increasing demand for aluminum products is the domestic automotive industry, due to recently enacted government fuel efficiency standards that are scheduled to begin being implemented at the first of the year. Also, an economic turn around should spur an increase in consumer demand for aluminum as well.

While experts in aluminum market analysis debate the exact timing of the expected economic turnaround they do agree on several aspects where they do tend to find common ground. One of these areas of agreement is that continuing growth in Asian economies, particularly China’s which shows no sign of slowing down which will contribute to overall global demand for aluminum.

Also, increasing inflation figures that continue to be seen in all Asian economies across the board indicate an impending upswing in profits for aluminum investors. Experts in aluminum market analysis also agree that a quick end to the sub prime banking crisis can only help in improving the overall outlook for aluminum investors.

Commodity Futures Market And Its Mechanisms

The general understanding about the commodity trading futures market is that it is a very complex and difficult to analyze market. However on the other hand it is not so! Infact there are a few basic facts that people need to know of which will change their perception about what the commodity trading futures market is and how they work.

The basic knowledge is that the commodity trading futures market or the exchange market as it is known is a public marketplace where the sale or purchase of commodities takes place. These sales and purchases are done at an agreed price so that commodities are delivered at a specified date. The broker is a person who needs to do the purchase or sales of the commodities. The broker is also a part of the organized exchange and the deal is completed according to the terms and conditions as given in the standardized futures contract.

The main thing that distinguishes the futures commodity trading market and a commodity market where commodities are bought and sold is that the futures market works with the help of contract agreements that follow a standard procedure. These agreements are responsible for delivery of a particular commodity at an amount as specified for a future month. It does not include the immediate transfer of commodities ownership.

In short the buying and selling in the commodity trading futures market does not need the buyer or the seller to be the owner of the particular commodity that they are trading for. With futures the main concern is receiving the delivery or making the delivery of the commodity, however the futures should not be bought or sold during the month of delivery. The previous sale also can be cancelled at any time with respect to the equal offsetting sale. If the sale is cancelled before the commodities delivery month then the trade cancels out completely. In this case the commodity is not received by the buyer or delivered by the seller.

In reality there is only a very small percentage very specifically less than 2% of the total of all futures commodity trading contracts that are settled or entered into through the deliveries. A larger part shows that there is a lot of cancellation of deliveries of commodities even before the delivery month in the manner that is described above.

This forms the basic mechanics or the functioning of the commodity trading futures market.

Hip and Knee Replacement, US, Revenue ($m), 2008–2015

Hip and knee joint replacement market to be driven by joint replacements in adults below 65 years

The hip and knee replacement markets are both expected to be primarily driven by the younger 45–65 year demographic going for early joint replacement in the future. Companies are increasingly targeting these individuals through advanced joint implants, new minimal invasive procedures and direct to customer marketing. Improved implant materials and innovative design are increasing the life of the implants, enabling younger patients to undergo treatment without worrying about implant failure later in life. Advancements in procedures have led to the emergence of minimal invasive techniques and partial joint replacements, which enable early recovery and greater range of movement. These incremental technological breakthroughs are enabling younger patients to safely undergo joint replacements. Direct to customer marketing is also helping create a positive perception about the surgery, promoting it as a lifestyle option in which individuals can remain more active into old age.

Incremental technology innovation will drive the market

Product innovations in the fields of implant material and design which improve implant durability is going to drive increased patient volumes, especially among the younger population. Implant materials such as advanced titanium alloys have lead to a resurgence of metal-on-metal implants, while cross-linked polyethylene has enhanced the durability of metal-on-polymer implants. Newer designs which provide more choice of sizes and allow for larger femoral heads have also improved surgery outcomes by providing better stability, reduced chances of dislocation post operation and reduced wear and tear due to better fit. The emergence of custom-fit implants, especially knee implants which are the largest load bearing joints in the body, is also expected to drive the market. Almost all the leading players have customized implants and instrumentation in the market. All these incremental innovations have vastly improved surgery outcomes, and made surgery intervention more appealing to those who earlier waited a few years before undergoing replacement. This expansion of the patient population is expected to drive the market.

Overall, the US hip and knee replacement market is expected to witness robust growth in 2008–2015 as a result of the increased number of younger patients going for surgery, and increased market penetration of existing technologies.

Zimmer, DePuy and Stryker dominate the US hip and knee market

Zimmer Holdings Inc, Stryker Corp. and DePuy Inc., are the leading competitors in the US hip and knee replacement market, together accounting for 70% of market share in 2008. Other significant players are Smith & Nephew and Biomet. Zimmer is the market leader in both hip and knee replacement markets with a 29% and 26% market share respectively. Product differentiation; especially in the knee replacement market, such as gender solutions and a range of high-flex knees; has enabled Zimmer to maintain its dominance. Zimmer recently announced that it will start developing products aimed at meeting the specific needs of obese patients. However, in 2008, it lost some market share in the hip replacement market, due to product recall of Durom Acetabular component following reports of cup loosening and high revision rates.
