#China market share on Composites in Oil and Gas'

With the exceptions of North Korea and Cuba, the communist world has merged onto the capitalist highway in a couple different ways during the twenty-first century. As you’ve read, free-trade imperialism and its cheap agricultural imports pushed farmers into the cities and into factory work, lowering the global price of manufacturing labor and glutting the world market with stuff. Forward-thinking states such as China and Vietnam invested in high-value-added production capacity and managed labor organizing, luring links from the global electronics supply chain and jump-starting capital investment. Combined with capital’s hesitancy to invest in North Atlantic production facilities, as well as a disinclination toward state-led investment in the region, Asian top-down planning erased much of the West’s technological edge. If two workers can do a single job, and one worker costs less, both in wages and state support, why pick the expensive one? Foxconn’s 2017 plan to build a U.S. taxpayer–subsidized $10 billion flat-panel display factory in Wisconsin was trumpeted by the president, but it was a fiasco that produced zero screens. The future cost of labor looks to be capped somewhere below the wage levels many people have enjoyed, and not just in the West.
The left-wing economist Joan Robinson used to tell a joke about poverty and investment, something to the effect of: The only thing worse than being exploited by capitalists is not being exploited by capitalists. It’s a cruel truism about the unipolar world, but shouldn’t second place count for something? When the Soviet project came to an end, in the early 1990s, the country had completed world history’s biggest, fastest modernization project, and that didn’t just disappear. Recall that Cisco was hyped to announce its buyout of the Evil Empire’s supercomputer team. Why wasn’t capitalist Russia able to, well, capitalize? You’re already familiar with one of the reasons: The United States absorbed a lot of human capital originally financed by the Soviet people. American immigration policy was based on draining technical talent in particular from the Second World. Sergey Brin is the best-known person in the Moscow-to-Palo-Alto pipeline, but he’s not the only one.
Look at the economic composition of China and Russia in the wake of Soviet dissolution: Both were headed toward capitalist social relations, but they took two different routes. The Russian transition happened rapidly. The state sold off public assets right away, and the natural monopolies such as telecommunications and energy were divided among a small number of skilled and connected businessmen, a category of guys lacking in a country that frowned on such characters but that grew in Gorbachev’s liberalizing perestroika era. Within five years, the country sold off an incredible 35 percent of its national wealth. Russia’s richest ended the century with a full counterrevolutionary reversal of their fortunes, propelling their income share above what it was before the Bolsheviks took over. To accomplish this, the country’s new capitalists fleeced the most vulnerable half of their society. “Over the 1989–2016 period, the top 1 percent captured more than two-thirds of the total growth in Russia,” found an international group of scholars, “while the bottom 50 percent actually saw a decline in its income.” Increases in energy prices encouraged the growth of an extractionist petro-centered economy. Blood-covered, teary, and writhing, infant Russian capital crowded into the gas and oil sectors. The small circle of oligarchs privatized unemployed KGB-trained killers to run “security,” and gangsters dominated politics at the local and national levels. They installed a not particularly well-known functionary—a former head of the new intelligence service FSB who also worked on the privatization of government assets—as president in a surprise move on the first day of the year 2000. He became the gangster in chief.
Vladimir Putin’s first term coincided with the energy boom, and billionaires gobbled up a ludicrous share of growth. If any individual oligarch got too big for his britches, Putin was not beyond imposing serious consequences. He reinserted the state into the natural monopolies, this time in collaboration with loyal capitalists, and his stranglehold on power remains tight for now, despite the outstandingly uneven distribution of growth. Between 1980 and 2015, the Russian top 1 percent grew its income an impressive 6.2 percent per year, but the top .001 percent has maintained a growth rate of 17 percent over the same period. To invest these profits, the Russian billionaires parked their money in real estate, bidding up housing prices, and stashed a large amount of their wealth offshore. Reinvestment in Russian production was not a priority—why go through the hassle when there were easier ways to keep getting richer?
While Russia grew billionaires instead of output, China saw a path to have both. As in the case of Terry Gou, the Chinese Communist Party tempered its transition by incorporating steadily increasing amounts of foreign direct investment through Hong Kong and Taiwan, picking partners and expanding outward from the special economic zones. State support for education and infrastructure combined with low wages to make the mainland too attractive to resist. (Russia’s population is stagnant, while China’s has grown quickly.) China’s entry into the World Trade Organization, in 2001, gave investors more confidence. Meanwhile, strong capital controls kept the country out of the offshore trap, and state development priorities took precedence over extraction and get-rich-quick schemes. Chinese private wealth was rechanneled into domestic financial assets—equity and bonds or other loan instruments—at a much higher rate than it was in Russia. The result has been a sustained high level of annual output growth compared to the rest of the world, the type that involves putting up an iPhone City in a matter of months. As it has everywhere else, that growth has been skewed: only an average of 4.5 percent for the bottom half of earners in the 1978–2015 period compared to more than 10 percent for the top .001 percent. But this ratio of just over 2–1 is incomparable to Russia’s 17–.5 ration during the same period.
Since the beginning of the twenty-first century, certain trends have been more or less unavoidable. The rich have gotten richer relative to the poor and working class—in Russia, in China, in the United States, and pretty much anywhere else you want to look. Capital has piled into property markets, driving up the cost of housing everywhere people want to live, especially in higher-wage cities and especially in the world’s financial centers. Capitalist and communist countries alike have disgorged public assets into private pockets. But by maintaining a level of control over the process and slowing its tendencies, the People’s Republic of China has built a massive and expanding postindustrial manufacturing base.
It’s important to understand both of these patterns as part of the same global system rather than as two opposed regimes. One might imagine, based on what I’ve written so far, that the Chinese model is useful, albeit perhaps threatening, in the long term for American tech companies while the Russian model is irrelevant. Some commentators have phrased this as the dilemma of middle-wage countries on the global market: Wages in China are going to be higher than wages in Russia because wages in Russia used to be higher than wages in China. But Russia’s counterrevolutionary hyper-bifurcation has been useful for Silicon Valley as well; they are two sides of the same coin. Think about it this way: If you’re a Russian billionaire in the first decades of the twenty-first century looking to invest a bunch of money you pulled out of the ground, where’s the best place you could put it? The answer is Palo Alto.

In principle, it should be easy for a country with fewer than 20 million people and abundant natural resources to get to high income and sustain this status. Kazakhstan has 22 million hectares of arable land—more than all but 14 countries in the world, the second-largest uranium reserves, the twelfth-largest oil wealth, and the fifteenth-largest natural gas reserves. This is a wealthy country with a great people.
So why hasn’t Kazakhstan become a high-income economy? More accurately, why didn’t it become one after rising very closely to what the World Bank considers high-income levels of more than $12,500 in 2014?
Observe first what sets Kazakhstan apart from the three dozen OECD countries that have reached high income. There are three main issues:
Dependence on natural resources
Distant location and
Dispersed population.
Because of this unique combination, Kazakhstan will have to devise its own development strategy. It can’t just copy someone else’s like Singapore did with Hong Kong China or South Korea did with Japan. The need for this tailored strategy is urgent as Kazakhstan’s economy has grown at a slower pace after each slowdown. Its per capita income grew by nearly 10 percent between 2000 and 2007, by 4 percent between 2010 and 2014, and by 3.5 percent between 2016 and 2019. During 2020-2022, the economy grew by 2.3 percent and this year, 2023, we expect per-capita income to grow by about 3.5-4 percent. Further, once you take out the effect of investment and employment increases, growth is close to zero. That is to say, productivity growth has been negligible since 2008. This is a visible symptom that Kazakhstan’s structural transformation has stalled, so has its sectoral transformation, and so has its spatial transformation.
A recent report by the World Bank shows a tight three-way relationship between a country’s per-capita income, the sectoral composition of its output, and the share of its urban population. The report shows that per capita income has grown mostly when the prices of its commodity exports have happened to be high. This is not a bad thing—there are other resource-rich countries where even this hasn’t happened. But it does mean that Kazakhstan’s fortunes are mainly decided by the international commodity markets rather than its industries and people. This is not a good thing.
Further, Kazakhstan’s production structure has not changed much. The share of mining in GDP has remained broadly unchanged at 14 percent since 2000. Manufacturing’s contribution to GDP has been static since 2004 at 13 percent GDP. Commodity exports are broadly stable accounting for more than 80 percent of total shipments abroad.
Finally, the share of the urban population has stayed at around 58 percent for the last twenty years. In 2008, it was a little less than 57 percent. In 2020, it was a little less than 58 percent.
Figure 1. Stagnant urbanization in Kazakhstan: urban share of the population, 2006–2020
Economic dynamism has been stymied in Kazakhstan. There are several reasons for this outcome:
The dominance of state-owned and state-connected enterprises means that production is being carried out in places that are not the best for these activities; goods are produced in places far from markets or with methods that should have changed a long time ago.
Another problem is low economic freedom for people and private firms. By definition, this has to be the decision of government. If a government trusts its citizens, it gives them freedom. Economic freedom may be the least controversial freedom to give.
Kazakhstan has made it hard for firms to both start and to shut down if they are not viable. Just as education is the grease that keeps individuals moving to better-paying jobs and places, competition is the grease that pushes firms to be more productive and innovative. The competition regime in Kazakhstan has not been improving; if anything, it may have gone backward.
The population density is 6 people per square kilometer. Mobility toward urban areas is dampened by high housing costs, a severely limited rental market, and the residency registration system. In the highest-demand urban areas, housing is extremely unaffordable when compared with local incomes. Housing subsidies and legacy policies contribute to one of the highest homeownership rates in the world. Finally, the residency registration system deters many people from relocating within the country, as benefits are tied to where a person is registered. For those who are unregistered, the system can lead to exclusion from many social services and benefits.
Perhaps the greatest driver of mobility—spatial, sectoral, and social—is good-quality education. Education quality is poor for a country on the doorstep of high-income. About 60 percent of 14-year-olds are functionally illiterate, the third highest percentage in Europe and Central Asia (ECA).
While these are daunting challenges, there are signs of hope.
The first is that a new e-governance system has simplified resident registration. But advanced economies do not have resident registration and Kazakhstan should consider discontinuing it.
There are signs of growing spatial concentration of manufacturing, especially near the borders and near Almaty and Astana. It is heartening to note that regions with higher population densities respond to shocks better than remote sparse places.
Kazakhstan’s territorial development strategy has some good features. Two of them are an emphasis on providing basic services everywhere and recognizing that big cities are the best way to improve both economic efficiency and living standards.
But Kazakhstan has a long way to go. Its three largest urban areas account for less than 25 percent of the GDP; in developed economies, this averages close to 50 percent.
But urban productivity trends are going into reverse. To counter these reversals, Kazakhstan should contemplate empowering subnational governments more by investing in their capacity and giving them more autonomy in decisionmaking.
One more change may be to stop subsidizing monotowns, an artifact of Soviet planning. Instead, the government should be thinking of creating regional and city development fund that finances local economic development programs that are implemented by subnational governments.
While there may be significant temptation to build infrastructure, economic zones, and urban structures to bolster the economy, policymakers should resist the temptation to first pour concrete. Advancing market reforms should be the first and foremost order of business.

Positive Opening for Indian Indices
After a streak of losses, Indian stock markets opened on a positive note on Tuesday, hinting at a possible stabilization in the near term. The Nifty 50 index started trading at 23,529.55 points, marking a gain of 75.75 points or 0.32%, while the BSE Sensex opened at 77,548 points, rising by 208.99 points or 0.27%.
Experts highlighted that the Indian stock market indices are in oversold territory, indicating potential consolidation around current levels rather than a sharp recovery. “The Nifty ended lower yesterday, its seventh straight daily loss. Short-term momentum is deeply oversold, and a bounce is statistically overdue. However, holding support in the 23,200–23,300 range is critical, while 23,680 remains the immediate upside hurdle,” noted Akshay Chinchalkar, Head of Research at Axis Securities.
Sectoral Gains Lead the Charge
Sectoral indices on the NSE showed broad-based gains during early trade. The Nifty Realty index emerged as the top performer, climbing 1.64%, followed by Nifty Oil & Gas, which rose 1.56%. All other sectoral indices remained in the green, reflecting a general positive sentiment across the board.
Among the Nifty 50 stocks, 40 opened with gains, while only 10 declined. This widespread upward movement signaled cautious optimism among traders and investors, even as the broader market trend indicated lingering challenges.
Expert Outlook and Global Context
Despite Tuesday’s rebound, analysts warned against expecting a quick recovery to previous highs. “The momentum that pushed the Indian stock market to its record peak of 26,216 in September has dissipated. While there may be recoveries, these are unlikely to sustain given the selling pressure from FIIs and concerns over weak earnings growth for FY25,” said V.K. Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services. He added that significant upward movements might only occur when data shows signs of earnings recovery.
Global markets also played a supportive role in Tuesday’s rebound. Japan’s Nikkei 225 gained 0.71%, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng rose by 0.31%, and South Korea’s KOSPI index added 0.35%. Taiwan led the gains in Asian markets, rallying by 1.39%. However, China’s Shanghai Composite Index bucked the trend, slipping by 0.39%.
While Indian stock markets show signs of stabilization, the trajectory ahead remains uncertain, with consolidation likely to dominate in the near term.

The carbon fiber fabric segment is expected to account for the largest market share in 2022, in terms of both value and volume.
Carbon fiber fabric is a lightweight, high-strength material that is increasingly being used in commercial building repair. It is especially well-suited for repairing and strengthening concrete structures, which are the most common type of commercial building structure. It can be used to repair a wide range of concrete defects, including cracks, spalls, delamination, and corrosion. It can also be used to strengthen concrete structures to increase their load-bearing capacity or resistance to seismic forces. Generally, epoxy bonding is used to apply carbon fiber fabric to concrete surfaces. The fabric is first cut to size before being bonded to the concrete with a special epoxy resin. The epoxy resin cures to form a strong and long-lasting bond between the fabric and the concrete.
Residential & commercial building applications are expected to grow with the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
Carbon fiber composite products have a wide range of properties that make them ideal to use in the repair of residential projects across the globe. These properties include a high strength to weight ratio and anti-corrosion properties. Steel mesh is getting widely replaced by grids or sheets of composite fiber made carbon fiber composites, which are used in the inner as well as outer sections of concrete wall elements. The use of composite fiber sheets helps to decrease the overall weight of structural units and provides the needful chemical protection.

Stock markets plunge on US recession fears
New Post has been published on https://sa7ab.info/2024/08/06/stock-markets-plunge-on-us-recession-fears/
Stock markets plunge on US recession fears
Wall Street stocks deepened their losses Monday, and Tokyo had its worst day in 13 years as panic spread across trading floors over fears of recession in the United States.
Wall Street’s tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite index tumbled 6.3 percent at the open, with the S&P 500 falling 4.2 percent and the Dow dropping 2.7 percent.
Major European indices were down around three percent in afternoon trading.
Tokyo’s Nikkei sank more than 12 percent on its worst day since the 2011 Fukushima crisis. It also suffered its biggest-ever points loss, shedding 4,451.28.
A weak US jobs report on Friday triggered the market meltdown. The report showed that the unemployment rate reached its highest since October 2021.
The report came two days after the US Federal Reserve decided, as expected, to keep interest rates at a 23-year high while signalling that it could cut them in September.
“Investors are gripped by fears that the Federal Reserve has waited too long to pivot on its policy, especially in light of Friday’s disappointing US jobs data and a slew of other weak economic indicators pointing toward a looming recession,” said market analyst Fawad Razaqzada at City Index and FOREX.com.
Friday’s much-anticipated report showed the US economy added just 114,000 jobs last month, well down from June and far fewer than expected, and unemployment at 4.3 percent.
The news came a day after lacklustre factory data.
Investors fear the Fed’s high rates, which aimed to slash inflation, could be plunging the economy towards a hard landing and recession instead of the soft landing sought by the central bank.
Expectations that the Fed could cut more aggressively than expected starting in September or even be forced into an emergency reduction this month sent the dollar sliding against the yen.
The Japanese currency was boosted also by a Bank of Japan interest-rate hike last week, analysts said.
The dollar went under 142 yen for the first time since January.
Bitcoin, oil retreat
Markets tumbled on Monday, with Brent North Sea crude reaching its lowest level in over six months despite heightened Middle East tensions. Bitcoin slumped more than 10 percent to under $50,000.
“Aside from ongoing worries about a US recession, the continuation of the pressure on markets has been attributed to the unwinding of the yen carry trade and geopolitical fears surrounding an expected Iranian military retaliation against Israel after Israel killed a high-ranking Iranian military official,” said Briefing.com analyst Patrick O’Hare.
Many investors have borrowed at low interest rates in a weak yen to invest in higher-yielding currencies, but the abrupt surge in the yen and interest rate moves are upending the trade.
Some analysts pointed to the “Sahm rule”, which says an economy is in the early stages of recession if the three-month moving average of unemployment is 0.5 percentage points above its low over the previous 12 months. That was triggered by Friday’s data.
O’Hare also noted big falls in tech and semiconductor shares.
That helped fuel sharp drops in Asia markets, and US tech shares also pulled down Wall Street indices.
Shares in AI chip manufacturer Nvidia plunged 14.6 percent at the start of trading on Monday.
Shares in Facebook and Instagram parent company Meta, slumped 7.2 percent.
Microsoft and Google’s parent company, Alphabet’s shares, were down around five percent.
Commodities under pressure
Commodities, including oil, natural gas, metals and agricultural products, also joined the global sell-off in equities.
Commodities had already taken a hit in recent weeks, weighed down by a sluggish economy in top buyer China, with crude oil down around 5% last week, copper hitting a four-month low on the London Metal Exchange, and corn near its weakest since 2020.
Crude oil dropped around 1 percent on Monday in volatile trade, less than losses on major equity indexes as US recession fears and possible implications for oil demand were somewhat mitigated by price support from rising tensions in the Middle East.
Copper prices tumbled over 3 percent to 4-1/2 month lows as a deteriorating demand outlook in China and the United States, the world’s two largest economies, triggered a sell-off of the metal used in power and construction.
Gold was last down around 2 percent.
European gas, power, and carbon contracts also fell.
European benchmark gas for the month ahead sank around 4% from the previous session, under pressure from panic selling in line with the wider sell-off as well as other factors, according to one trader.
