			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Taking rang in Dubai, where the 2011 Air Show closes today. Contrary to the fears of some, Dubai 2011 has been a vintage correct with more than $ 40 billion of contracts (the rate catalog) reaped in four days by Airbus and Boeing. A good result after the fireworks of the Paris Air Show in June, which had resulted in some 100 billion dollars of contracts for only 72.2 billion Airbus. </p>
<p> Public debt crisis, threat of recession in western countries, job losses in banking, automobile &#8230; Nothing seems to affect Airbus and Boeing, who see a looming record year. Like ATR, the world leader in regional aircraft propeller, which flies from strength to strength.With three ATR 42-600 (50 seats) operated by the company in Dubai Siberian North Star, the manufacturer of Toulouse, a subsidiary of EADS and Finmeccanica, accumulated 148 orders since the beginning of the year. Historic levels for ATR and higher than the previous record of 2007 (113 orders). ATR now assumes 80% of the market for new aircraft from 40 to 90 seats, all confused engine (jet or turboprop). </p>
<p> With 221 orders and commitments announced in Dubai for $ 20.5 billion, Airbus also exceeded by mid-November 2011 its goal of 1,500 gross orders. &quot;Our NEO A 320 was again the star of the show,&quot; welcomed John Leahy, Airbus chief executive, in charge of clients. Remotorisée version of best-selling Airbus to come into service in 2015, was commissioned to 130 copies in Dubai bringing its backlog to 1420 NEO.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> The President of the Republic, Nicolas Sarkozy, on the road to Bordeaux, reaffirmed his loyalty to the social spirit of the National Council of Resistance and ran to secure a social model to which the French are &quot;deeply attached&quot;. &quot;The honor of France is to have built a democratic and social Republic on the ruins of World War II,&quot; he said. And specify that it &quot;does not have it said that the legacy of the National Council of Resistance has been betrayed,&quot; but felt that these critics are the ones &quot;who have protected the French credit by mortgaging the future of their children and grandchildren without telling them. &quot; He explained that he wanted to open a debate &quot;calm&quot; on the financing of social protection, as it takes &quot;to reform permanently&quot; the system to &quot;adapt&quot; because &quot;the status quo is a danger <a href="http://easy-quick-payday-loans.com">guaranteed online payday loans</a><!-- . -->.&quot;</p>
<p> Rights and duties
<p> &quot;We can not, we can not afford to get into a spending strategy. The real answer requires a transformation of social policy, &quot;said Nicolas Sarkozy. He wants to rights of insured persons are duties. He confirmed that the beneficiaries of the RSA (RSA) should now work seven hours to the community, as announced by the Minister of Solidarity and social cohesion Roselyne Bachelot, September 22. &quot;It should not be a system but a worthy charity,&quot; he added. </p>
<p> He announced the creation of a High Council of the financing of social protection &quot;will have to work before the end of the year,&quot; to think about solutions. &quot;A third of our GDP is devoted to social protection.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Getting started in the world of work is ever more difficult task. To put it mildly. In its latest report on youth unemployment, the International Labour Organisation (ILO) provides an alarming. The generation of a &quot;traumatized&quot; by the tightness of the labor market. </p>
<p> At the height of the economic crisis between 2008 and 2009, the number of unemployed youth had increased in an unprecedented way: 4.5 million additional young people came to swell the numbers of job seekers, when the average change is usually the order of 100,000 people a year. Since then, youth unemployment has dropped. In 2010, he touched 75.1 million people, or an unemployment rate of 12.7%. In 2011, this trend will continue according to the ILO, and the number of unemployed youth as low as 74.6 million people, 12.6%.</p>
<p> But this is good news in appearance, the organization warns. These good figures actually underestimate the extent of a growing number of unemployed youth withdrawing from the labor market, discouraged. The rate of young workers fell from 49.4% in 2009 to 48.8% in 2010. In Ireland, the same phenomenon would reach dramatic proportions. By including the discouraged unemployed, the rate of youth unemployment, which rises already at 27.5% (against 9% in 2007), culminate in fact almost 47% <a href="http://payday-loans-nofax.com">payday loans with no fax</a><!-- . -->. Similarly in China, Austria and Hong Kong, the real unemployment rate is double the official figure. </p>
<p> &quot;More difficult years&quot;
<p> As for those who manage to integrate the labor market, what they find is often &quot;less than ideal.&quot;Part-time, for example, rose sharply, by nearly 9 percentage points in Spain, 17 points in Ireland &#8230; &quot;The magnitude of the peak recorded since the beginning of the economic crisis suggests that many young people have taken what they could find. This is confirmed by the increase in the rate of underemployment among young people, &quot;the report said. </p>
<p> And the future painted by the ILO is not much brighter. &quot;Uncertainty in the economic environment, coupled with the greater sensitivity of youth unemployment in the economy makes the recovery in employment for this category highly uncertain. This can announce several more difficult years, &quot;says the ILO. The organization also warns governments continuing economic difficulties could generate a distrust of young people towards political and economic systems.&quot;This factor played an undeniable role in the Arab Spring,&quot; says the ILO. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Lefigaro.fr &#8211; The Mouth of Employment, Dominique Cros documentary, highlights humiliating recruitment practices. Is this common? </p>
<p> Geraldine Rieucau &#8211; No, of course. Recruiters are not disrespectful majority of candidates. Otherwise, they failed to provide proper offers. As everywhere, there are good and bad recruiters. But even if we should not generalize, this documentary is still evidence of practices that exist: infantilization of candidates, the will to destabilize the discrimination of certain profile, a contempt for the job seeker is attitudes that we observe, more and more. </p>
<p> Why? </p>
<p> There is always a balance of power between the recruiter and the candidate. The nature of recruitment created an inequality between the two parties. But several factors have increased the imbalance.The economic crisis first, which has intensified competition among candidates, and allows the recruiter to demand more from them. </p>
<p> And then for various reasons, recruiters are placing more and more importance to the personality of the candidates, so that this criterion sometimes takes precedence over qualifications and skills. And the grounds to see how a candidate is resistant to pressure, some were quick to destabilize or to make uncomfortable. </p>
<p> Consequence of these two factors, the motivation of the applicant has become an essential criterion <a href="http://payday-4all.com">payday advance low fees</a><!-- . -->. But behind this concept, what the recruiter wants to know is whether it will be often enough finally available and ready to work overtime, etc.. </p>
<p> Recruitment firms are more they implement these bad practices? </p>
<p> No, I do not think so. An employer, an HR department is just as likely to skid.But it is true that firms, whose service is costly, are often called upon to fill management positions in CDI. The recruiter will then spend more tests, more pre-select candidates &#8230; But be aware that less than 3% of hires are made via a recruitment agency. Conversely, 40% are the result of an unsolicited application. </p>
<p> The discourse on the fight against discrimination mean in reality? </p>
<p> For 10 years, recruiters are clearly more careful not to discriminate on criteria visible. But there are forms of indirect discrimination that persist and are very difficult to control. When an employer requires its future employee lives near his work, for example. </p>
<p> Overall, large firms have more ways to avoid discrimination.This often led to further standardize recruitment, to centralize procedures. The human resources sector has benefited: the U.S. example, the size of the sector and the influence of RH increased sharply with the policies of &quot;Equal Opportunities&quot;. </p>

The debt crisis in Europe and the United States and the gloomy outlook for global growth still hovering in the markets.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> The New York Stock Exchange began the week as badly as he had finished the previous one. The debt crisis in Europe and the United States and the gloomy outlook for global growth still hovering in the markets. At the close, Wall Street lost 2.37% to 10,655.30 points, the Nasdaq 3.29% to 2335.83 loose points and the S &amp; P 500 drops 2.85% to 1099.23 points. Friday, Wall Street had already been a difficult session. </p>
<p> On the macroeconomic front, the ISM manufacturing index in the United States has, however, unexpectedly increased to 51.6% in September (the consensus of analysts expected 50.5%) and construction spending rebounded in the month of August 1.4% (against 0.5% expected).These publications serve to mitigate the concerns about U.S. growth occurred even as the markets again questioned the ability of Greece to meet its budgetary commitments. </p>
<p> But the crisis of public finances continues to produce its harmful effects on the markets. Bad news yesterday in Europe, where Greece has announced that it would lack its budget deficit targets. The second Country Assistance Plan will be the focus of several summit meetings this week: Monday, finance ministers of the euro area were meeting in Luxembourg hours from 5:30 p.m. and Tuesday, those of the entire European Union.This will then be the turn of the Franco-German debate the future of Greece and &quot;ways and means to accelerate economic integration in the euro area&quot;. </p>
<p> A new week promises to be tense on Wall Street, where investors are worried more about a possible erosion of corporate earnings, without the support of foreign demand. Past two years, export sales have averaged 30% of the turnover of listed companies in the S &amp; P 500, allowing the results of many of them to exceed the expectations of analysts. In addition, many U.S. multinationals have benefited in recent months the relative weakness of the dollar to support exports.But the euro shows a quarterly decline of more than 7% against the greenback, depriving companies of the damper. </p>
<p> The U.S. ISM better than expected
<p> Most analysts have already lowered their expectations of results. According to Thomson Reuters data, earnings for the third quarter are expected up 13.3% over the same period of 2010, against an expected increase to 17% in early July. </p>
<p> On the macroeconomic front, the manufacturing sector has grown stronger than expected in September in the United States, according to the purchasing managers&#39; index released Monday. This index, calculated by the Institute of Supply Management (ISM), stood at 51.6 against 50.6 last month in August and 50.5 expected. </p>
<p> Construction spending rebounded against all odds in August after falling in July, according to official figures released Monday by the Commerce Department.They rose 1.4% year on year to stand at 799.15 billion dollars, while analysts expected a decline of 0.3% following a decline (revised) 1.4% the previous month. </p>
<p> Oil continues to fall and the dollar to strengthen
<p> Oil prices have closed lower in New York lundisoir in the wake of the stock markets, despite the encouraging figures on manufacturing and sales of automobiles in the United States. On the New York Mercantile Exchange, a barrel of &quot;light sweet crude&quot; for delivery in November lost $ 1.59 from Friday&#39;s close, and accounted for 77.61 dollars. </p>
<p> On the currency markets, the dollar continued its rise against the euro, the euro falling by 1.46% to 1.3192 dollar. </p>
<p> Also note, the protest movement against the excesses of Wall Street gains momentum.The New York police said on Sunday that most of the more than 700 demonstrators arrested Saturday as they marched down the Brooklyn Bridge to protest against the excesses and other finance had been released. Further rallies are planned. </p>
<p> Yahoo! Alibaba in the crosshairs
<p> Alibaba China Internet group would be &quot;interested&quot; in acquiring a large U.S. shareholder Yahoo! (2.73% to 13.53 dollars) and has been approached by private equity firms interested in mounting such an operation, said on Monday the Wall Street Journal. Yahoo! is the main shareholder in Alibaba, with 40.5% of its capital, but relations between the two companies are very tense for months.Alibaba has in the past tried to buy this participation, but the direction of Yahoo! there is still refused, partly because of the importance of the contribution for its own market capitalization. The group, which has dismissed its CEO, Carol Bartz, is valued around $ 17 billion in stock. Alibaba is not listed but the whole group is valued around $ 30 billion. </p>
<p> Intel (-3.35% to 20.62 dollars) will acquire Telmap, an Israeli company that designs software for mobile browsing. Details of the agreement were not disclosed, but Israeli media reported that the semiconductor giant would pay between 300 and 350 million dollars (224 euros 261 million).Telmap will become a 100% subsidiary of Intel, retaining its brand, its management and 210 employees. </p>
<p> For its part, Citigroup (-9.78% to 23.11 dollars) would be subject to an investigation by Japanese authorities for lack of information on financial products, according to Reuters.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> The crisis in the euro area would feel it more outside the monetary union in its midst? In any case, Washington, Beijing or London that seem to come now calls the most vibrant in the action. The most brutal too, sometimes. &quot;I see the European leaders roll up their sleeves,&quot; was exclaimed and Sunday on the BBC, the British prime minister. &quot;The eurozone is a threat to itself, but also a threat to the UK economy and a threat to the global economy.&quot; </p>
<p> David Cameron is well echo the words of Barack Obama, who had created great excitement in the European ruling class last weekend.Europeans &quot;through a financial crisis that frightens the world,&quot; declared U.S. President who is critical of the inertia of the Old Continent: &quot;They never really occupied the challenges facing their banks,&quot; he explained. </p>
<p> Sarkozy-Merkel meeting
<p> Both critics respond course to domestic policy concerns. Faced also with a very fragile economy, David Cameron and Barack Obama have a field day to continental Europe as a scapegoat. Still, they express anxiety was widely distributed across the planet. Meetings of the IMF and the G20 a week ago in Washington were the sounding world. &quot;Europe is at a critical moment in its history.(&#8230;) If the decision comes too late, some members of the euro area will leave, &quot;commented Saturday the People&#39;s Daily in China, setting the tone of urgency that the entire planet seems to inspire European leaders. </p>
<p> In the economic sphere too, the difficulties of the euro area crystallize the fears. What happened to Friday on Wall Street the big U <a href="http://no-fax-fast-cash-advance.com">no fax cash advance</a><!-- . -->.S. bank Morgan Stanley is a striking illustration. Its action was unscrewed from 10.5% in a session on rumors of &quot;exposure&quot; to European banks.An &quot;unofficial source&quot; had to say that Morgan Stanley was exposed either to France or to its banks, the same tone that he employed was not so long on the market to talk about the subprime and other toxic assets! Also appear as irrational and epidermal such reactions, they show how much confidence moved against investment in the euro area. </p>
<p> It is therefore under considerable pressure that EU leaders will engage in an October &quot;marathon&quot;. The meetings of finance ministers from the eurozone and the European Union on Monday and Tuesday should not be decisive. The meeting between Nicolas Sarkozy and Angela Merkel planned-probably 9 &#8211; will be much more. The Franco-German partnership will give &quot;the&quot; strategy of the euro area, for the top 17 and 18.With three main points on the menu: the treatment of Greek case, the strengthening of capacity of the European Financial Stability Fund, and the terms of consolidation of the banking sector. Part of this last chapter, however, also be written by the European Central Bank, possibly as early as its meeting on October 6. Indeed we expect the ECB to provide more oxygen to the banks as loans at least one year. Europe, she was again meeting with the rest of the world, November 3, G20 Cannes. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> After China, Russia and India, Renault-Nissan continues its conquest of the BRICs with Brazil, a market that the Alliance considers particularly promising. Japanese Nissan, 43.4% owned by Renault, will announce next Tuesday the construction of its first plant in the country. It would produce about 200,000 cars a year according to Nissan. This would be after a source quoted by Reuters car to make affordable electric cars. The manufacturer will invest $ 1.5 billion (1.1 billion euros). A figure not confirmed by Nissan, but the sum generally allocated to the creation of a new plant. The site could be located in the State of Rio de Janeiro. So far, Nissan produces its cars in the Renault plant in Curitiba, in Parana state. </p>
<p> Meanwhile, Renault will expand the capacity of its plant to better meet market demand.The investment could be around 200 million euros, according to estimates from an internal source to the manufacturer. The Curitiba plant produced 190,000 cars last year, about 30,000 Nissan vehicles. </p>
<p> Carlos Ghosn, CEO of Renault-Nissan, said in June, during the presentation of the new strategic plan of the Japanese, that Nissan would announce an investment in Brazil by the end of the year. He also promised two weeks ago, at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the major announcements about upcoming BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India, China). </p>
<p> Renault-Nissan, whose global market share stood at 10.3% in 2010, wants to catch up in Brazil, where the Alliance was granted last year that 5.9% of the market ( 4.8% for Renault and 1.1% for Nissan). The French manufacturer this year is 5.5% of market share and 7.4% in 2013, with 250,000 vehicles sold (against 160,000 in 2010).He estimates that Brazil, last year&#39;s third market, could become the second to the horizon behind France. </p>
<p> While the market is currently dominated by Fiat, Volkswagen and General Motors, which share almost two-thirds of sales, the French rival Renault, PSA Peugeot Citroen, also seeking to hold its own in the game PSA , had already announced in 2010 an investment of 530 million euros in Brazil, including the development of models tailored to the local market and increased capacity. The plant in Porto Real, in the State of Rio de Janeiro, should be capable of producing 220,000 cars from next year, against 150,000 now.</p>
<p> Higher taxes on imports
<p> Renault-Nissan also want to be able to benefit fully from the growth of the Brazilian market, last year became the fourth in the world, with 3.3 million vehicles and an increase of 10.6%. In recent months, growth has slowed significantly, however, even if the first 8 months of the year, it still reached 7.5% over the same period in 2010. The country could fall back to fifth or sixth place this year, according to the local builders association. </p>
<p> Increasing their industrial presence in local, French manufacturers are also able to escape the measures recently implemented by the Brazilian government to tax heavily on imported cars and thereby encourage investment in the country.</p>
<p> Renault-Nissan was headed for emerging markets, giving priority to date every time to one of two manufacturers. In Russia, the Alliance is currently negotiating the takeover of Russian Avtovaz before the end of the year, Renault could hold 35%. In India, Renault will produce four new models by end 2012 in the Nissan plant in Chennai. Remains China, where the Japanese are strongly represented, but Renault is still absent. An absence that seems more than ever out of place when Nissan is growing in Brazil. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> The stock market bounce this week has been facilitated by the concerted action of major central banks. The markets now await a response to the crisis of the euro and they still fear a return to recession is not yet integrated into the course. </p>
<p> • Central banks have put out the fire. Policy is to act. </p>
<p> To rebound, stock markets were expecting a strong gesture. A kind of kick in the bottom of the pool after the distressing spectacle of the leaders of member countries of the euro unable to agree on rescue Greece. The first impetus was given by central banks that have decided to tackle the funding problems of European banks. By providing all the liquidity they need dollars, they have the most urgent and avoided a new banking crisis. But the most difficult tasks lie ahead.For central banks are independent organizations, they therefore have the flexibility of movement that do not have the seventeen Member States of the euro. Now it is in the field of European governance, the ability of states to reduce their debt and the solidity of the European financial stability that is expected the euro area. Subjects whose implementation is far from certain and have not finished putting markets under pressure. </p>
<p> • Focus on growth, defensive stocks do not pay more. </p>
<p> The crash of August brought down one of the last great stock market myth: the resilience of defensive stocks in times of crisis. The numbers speak for themselves: Veolia Environnement and Suez, specializing in utilities, a sector traditionally very defensive, yielded 42 and 20% over the last three months.EDF and GDF Suez lost their next 18 and 12%. France Telecom, Vivendi and Vinci also fell sharply. During the summer, these values ​​have not only shown no ability to resist, but they often fell as much as &quot;cyclical&quot; as Lafarge, ArcelorMittal, Saint-Gobain or Peugeot. The only values ​​that really are resilient growth companies in these emerging countries have low debt and strong brands. LVMH is the case, Essilor International, SEB, Air Liquide, Bic or Hermes International. The clear market preference for growth stocks at the expense of defense is not surprising in times of crisis. It is precisely because investors fear a slowdown in the richer countries, that growth is so sought after by scholars.The famous guru of Wall Street, the American Peter Lynch, who long prospered the famous Magellan fund, has shown: in the long run, only the values ​​of growth are able to enrich shareholders. His motto: there is no fortune by multiplying the stock market moves, but the success by joining the best companies at the time. </p>
<p> • Economists fear a growing recession in the United States. </p>
<p> The euro crisis is not the only concern of the operators. According to a survey by the Wall Street Journal on a panel of 53 economists, they believe that there is one chance in three that the United States fell into recession in the next twelve months. This sharp deterioration in business expectations is a bad omen.American economists believe the Fed will be reactive at its meeting on 20 September, but they doubt the effectiveness of measures taken to revive the business. The survey, closely watched by traders on Wall Street, the trend weakens. Especially when we know that this feeling is shared by consumers, which contributes 70% to U.S. GDP. </p>
