Currency under $ 1.20 How weak is the euro going to be?

Status: 06/18/2021 2:09 p.m.

In the USA there are signs of a turnaround in interest rates, in Europe the key interest rate will probably remain low for a long time to come. That has been burdening the euro for days. How much will the common currency still become cheaper? The prospect of rising interest rates in the US has recently weighed on the euro. The common currency fell in the past few days from rates at 1.22 to below 1.19 US dollars. Experts cited the interest rate meeting of the US Federal Reserve (Fed) as an explanation for this strong movement. After years of zero interest rate policy, the American monetary authorities had promised interest rate hikes, at least for the longer term. Accordingly, two rate hikes can be expected by 2023.

First of all, the Fed will in all probability cut back its security purchases later in the year, with which it had pushed down long-term interest rates on the bond market in recent years. The expectation of an economic recovery with rising inflation rates alone had pushed the yield on ten-year US government bonds up from around 0.5 percent to just under 1.8 percent since the summer of last year.

Long-term rates still negative

Yields on the German stock market have also risen sharply in recent months, albeit at a significantly lower level to date. The yield on ten-year Bunds is still around minus 0.2 percent. In the low, the interest rate was only around minus 0.67 percent. Despite rising inflation rates in Germany and the euro area, the European Central Bank in Frankfurt unwilling to be, to follow the central bank colleagues in Washington and to consider at least less security purchases in the near future. In May, the inflation rate in the euro zone was 2.0 percent, slightly above the central bank’s price stability target. In Germany they moved Producer prices even rose 7.2 percent in May compared to the previous year and therefore stronger than it has been for almost 13 years. The prices were driven by the sharply rising prices of so-called intermediate goods.

Bundesbank boss for the end of the bond purchases

“In the long run this will work noticeable in consumer prices The economists at Commerzbank said: “A central bank in crisis mode, which, as ECB President Christine Lagarde said in her last press conference, does not even talk about whether a reduction in bond purchases might be necessary. appears well behind the curve in comparison. “In the opinion of the experts, the monetary authorities have thus missed the entry into the exit from the zero interest rate policy.

An opinion that is also shared by the President of the Bundesbank, Jens Weidmann. Weidmann has spoken out in favor of an early end to the trillion dollar bond purchases by the European Central Bank (ECB) after the pandemic. The focus is on the purchase program called “PEPP” the monetary guardian. “When the emergency for which the PEPP was created is over, it must be ended,” Weidmann told the “Handelsblatt”. But whether Weidmann will prevail is unclear. There are thus signs for the near future that the dollar could retain or even expand its interest rate advantage.

German exporters benefit

For German vacationers who want to spend their free time outside the euro area, that would be bad news – they would have to pay more for foreign currency. The export-oriented German economy, on the other hand, is benefiting from the trend. Last year, just 36 percent of German exports went to the countries of the euro area. And even if you include EU countries with their own currencies such as Denmark, Sweden and the United Kingdom, which has since left the country, the share of exports last year was just over half.

A good sixth of exports even went directly to the USA. In fact, the impact of the dollar rate on German exports is likely to be significantly greater. Because some international currencies are directly linked to the US dollar. These include, for example, the Saudi riyal or the diram of the United Arab Emirates. Both Saudi Arabia and the Emirates are countries that traditionally buy and import many German products with the money they earn from oil exports.

Dollar weakness later in the year?

If the US dollar gains strength, German companies have two options. Either they reap additional profits with unchanged prices. Or they react with price cuts in order to gain market share – both attractive prospects for companies.

But at this point in time it seems questionable how long the euro will actually continue to decline. Because for autumn and winter, experts like those at Commerzbank are expecting inflationary dynamics to decline again in the USA. Then “the US dollar euphoria will soon be over”

K-Pop idols don’t mind dyeing unique colors As a result, almost every idol encounters dry, charged, and standing hair when they perform on stage. So many beautiful boys and girls have fallen into a situation where they lost all their form when their hair stood up like a lawn, making their teammates laugh and forget to perform. Many people have hair stand up while performing because it’s too dry Fans are of course very worried when they see idols bleaching and dyeing their hair continuously like that, worried that their hair will be damaged, dry and broken. Not to mention, Yoona once had to cut her hair short to remove the damaged hair ends from using too much chemicals, accepting to grow her new hair to be healthy. Yoona used to cut her hair short to grow her new hair more beautiful But according to hair stylists who specialize in working with K-Pop idols, things are not as stressful as fans worry. Dry hair, weak hair is inevitable but still at an acceptable level. Because after each hair bleaching or hair dyeing, idols go through many steps of hair care and hair restoration with good products. Thanks to that, their hair is not damaged too much. Experts confirm that idols do not damage their hair too much when bleaching and dyeing continuously Hairdressers themselves are also aware that their job is not only to create new hairstyles for idols, but also to calculate how to protect idols’ hair from damage. That’s why many female idols, despite dyeing and bleaching many times, still keep their hair shiny and smooth.

The “war” triggered by female breasts is getting more and more intense.

More than half of the 618 e-commerce competition, some outstanding players have rushed to the front, new and old brands alternate, the most intense competition is undoubtedly underwear. According to the data of Tmall, Ubras broke 100 million in one day on sale, firmly occupying the first place, followed by bananas; toffee pie was on sale for 2 hours more than 3 days last year; last year, the Tmall store’s “Su Muscle” was launched. “Good Products” has reached the top 10 of new apparel brands in terms of turnover.

The “big brothers” like Ai Mu and Manifen performed fairly well, but looking at these aggressive new players, one can only sigh: the future is terrifying.

According to industry insiders, there are three criteria for judging whether a new brand has a firm foothold. One is whether it has opened up a brand new track; the second is whether it has achieved rapid growth; and the third is increased revenue. Behind it, can you keep the repurchase rate and net profit?

According to this standard, Ubras and toffee pie can be considered stable.

What we are curious about is, what makes Ubras stir up the situation in a market that seems to be surrounded by big names? Why is the charge of new consumer brands the first to sound the horn of victory in the fortress of women’s underwear?

Industry reshuffle triggered by “no steel ring”

Do you know who are the top three on the Tmall Double 11 underwear list in 2019?

The answer is: Antarctica, Hengyuanxiang, Uniqlo.

The first two are all in brand licensing or OEM business. Uniqlo does underwear by the way. Now 618 can sell Ubras for 100 million yuan a day. Two years ago, they were still unknown.

Today Ubras has become synonymous with “no steel ring” and “no size”. When you go to an offline underwear store, you will find that the “window models” placed in the most conspicuous position have all been gathered from sexy laces to become wide-strapless and non-steel rings.

A steel ring overwhelmed the once underwear giant.

In fact, the trend of “steel-rimless” underwear began to take shape at least five or six years ago. At that time, the sales of non-steel-rim underwear on Taobao had gradually surpassed that of rim-less underwear, but the underwear giants did not pay attention. Due to factory problems, Aimer cut off one of its non-steel-rim underwear categories in 2015. Due to the failure of Metro Beauty to keep up with the non-steel-rim underwear, due to the inability to update the technology supply in time, sales revenue declined in 2016.

After this, one step later, one step later. In 2018, Aimer also launched its own rimless underwear brand “Xihu”, but the volume is still small.

The “steel-free” revolution, which lasted for several years, finally ushered in an outbreak on the line in 2020, and the epidemic became a catalyst. This is easy to understand, home isolation can not be vacuum, a comfortable underwear without steel ring is just right.

Ubras is not actually a pioneer without steel rims, there are “inside and outside” before it. But the smart thing about Ubras is that it has transformed the concept of “no steel ring” from the exclusive for women with small breasts to universal, regardless of size.

The industry is accelerating the reshuffle, big names are under pressure, and new brands are emerging one after another.

Judging from the situation of the four major Chinese underwear giants that have been listed, in 2020, in addition to the 1.33% increase in Aimer’s revenue, the revenue of Huijie (Mannifine), Metro Beauty, and Emrifang have all declined year-on-year. Among them, Metro Beauty and An Lifang both Loss.

Data comes from the financial reports of listed companies

On the other hand, new brands have accelerated their take-off.

On Tmall Double 11 in 2020, Ubras, which has been established for four years, has sales of hundreds of millions, making it the number one Tmall underwear list; at the same time, toffee pie achieved annual sales of more than 100 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of more than three times; Since its launch, Jiaonei has achieved 100% growth for three consecutive years. The GMV in 2020 is said to exceed 1 billion. After the A round of financing in November last year, the post-investment valuation was as high as 2.5 billion.

This obviously also attracted the attention of the capital market. According to data from Enniu, from 2019 to 2020, at least 8 underwear brands established after 2014 will receive financing.

Data comes from: ene cattle data

Challenger by the sleeping lion

In addition to path dependence, there may be another reason why Aimer and Urban Beauty missed the outlet of “steel-rimless underwear”: they did not find seed users, which led to the slow implementation of market education. When the lion was asleep, the challenger was about to move.

A very interesting phenomenon is that many new consumer brands have grown up from the community.

For example, from 2016 to 2018, Ubras made a lot of advertising on WeChat public accounts, and also tried to recruit secondary agents to promote through WeChat business. Many users first learned about Ubras from female skin care and wear public accounts such as “Goddess Evolution”. Channels that big names don’t look up to have helped Ubras accumulate the first batch of accurate seed users.

Toffee pie

Coincidentally, the big cup bra toffee pie sprouted from a Douban group dedicated to Bra. Until a year ago, the founder of toffee pie, Dabai, would also write a diary on Douban, telling toffee pie and his story.

“User-centric” is easier said than done.

In Banana, which mainly makes men’s underwear, the first batch of products from 2016 to 2017 has 27 models in one go, covering different price points, ingredients, design styles, and specifications. The more important function is not to sell goods, but to test models, allowing consumers Vote with money to adjust quickly. Back then, the bananas were mostly “sexy” styles. After several iterations, they became the main basic models now.

Toffee pie has also been swayed and confused in its brand positioning. One is whether to deploy a small cup bra to satisfy more users. I tried it in 2017, but it was almost autistic by fans. Before focusing on making big cup bras, toffee pie hesitated whether to make “breast-shaped underwear”. At one time, there were two sets of external promotional materials and two voices. The disagreement was so intense that Dabai began to evade the company and was bored in the gym.

It wasn’t until the firm made Chinese women’s big cup bras that toffee pie gradually opened up, and sales doubled year after year.

Different from the big brands in the past, it leaves consumers with a relatively broad brand impression, such as high-end, sexy, and professional. The current new underwear brand is focused on exploding one point and one detail, like a sharp knife, piercing the mediocre market, arousing a burst of applause, from Ubras’s steel-free rim, toffee pie big cup bra, to the present The main “Jelly Bar” of Suhada Liangpin is not as good as it is.

Chinese women bitter steel ring for a long time

Chinese women have long been suffering from steel rims, and a single bra has been supplied for a long time.

Having said that, it has been less than 40 years for Chinese women to take off their bellybands and put on modern underwear, while the United States has at least 100 years, and Japan’s oldest underwear brand Wacoal has a history of more than 70 years.

China’s women’s underwear market is still an “ant market.” According to Euromonitor statistics, the market concentration of the top five women’s underwear markets in China in 2019 was only 9%, while the market concentration of the top five markets in Japan, the United States, and the United Kingdom during the same period was 66%, 58%, and 19%, respectively.

Even if newcomers such as Ubras have begun to take shape, the pattern of the Chinese women’s underwear market is not completely fixed, and there are plenty of opportunities.

The economic status of Chinese women is constantly rising, and their consumption power is getting stronger and stronger. In 2017, the female labor force participation rate in China was 68.8%, slightly higher than that of the United States and Japan. Other data show that since 2008, Chinese women are more likely to receive higher education and postgraduate education than men.

This updates women’s aesthetics of underwear. From the male perspective in the past, it emphasized the sex appeal of sexual attraction, and turned to the comfort and health of the self-perspective, from “pleasant” to “pleasant self.”

Brand spokesperson is often the personality image that the brand wants to convey to consumers. In recent years, the urban beauty has changed her spokesperson from sister Zhiling to “national girl” Guan Xiaotong. Ai Mu gave up the plump Gong Li and chose the female star Xin Zhilei who became popular with her “ambition”. She found Faye Wong inside and outside, while Ubras chose Ouyang Nana. Jiao Nei signed Zhou Dongyu. These brands even deliberately avoid the front and back warped figures, and emphasize independent and unique personality.

On the left is Xin Zhilei, the new spokesperson of Amour, and on the right is Faye Wong, the internal and external spokesperson

Increasingly personalized demand has also skyrocketed along with Chinese women’s bust and self-confidence-support is required during exercise, thin and beautiful back in summer, sometimes small breasts to show big, sometimes big breasts to show small… when the consumption scene Unlimited segmentation means that the entire market is constantly expanding. Perhaps we can boldly draw a conclusion that new brands of underwear will continue to emerge.

New brand “blitz”

Media person Hong Huang once recalled that at least six or seven years ago, when she ate with Aimu founder Zhang Rongming, she felt his “anxiety” about Internet e-commerce. Aimu took a series of measures, including opening a new price-friendly one. E-commerce specializes in supply lines, and has also opened up new categories such as home furnishings.

At that time, the online underwear market was flourishing. Tao brands “Goruier” and “Runwei”. The former started by selling international big-name bras, while the latter also switched from factory currency to self-designed, self-produced and self-sold products.

Factory direct sales, reducing intermediate links, the underwear of Ge Ruier and Runwei has a considerable price advantage, the price is about 100 yuan, the price is very high, but the design is basically copied from the big names, and there is nothing new. When offline brands collectively settled on Tmall, the cost advantage of the first batch of Taobao brands was defeated in the face of brand power.

The new underwear brands that have emerged from Tmall in the past two years are completely different. Due to the large amount of effort spent on front-end R&D and design, and the scarcity of this demand, the price has risen. Ubras, toffee pie, and so-called bras are concentrated at two or three hundred yuan, which is not much different from traditional big brands. .

From the perspective of competition, the explosion of new brands on Tmall is inevitable. Startups that are small and broad can only initiate a blitzkrieg and seize the high ground before the big brands have fully reacted. Otherwise, when the sleeping lion wakes up, the bone scum will not be able to grab it.

The blitzkrieg strategy is often based on a large amount of marketing investment to seize online channels, which is the most efficient path to burst.

Ubras spends less money on marketing as a percentage of total revenue in 2020. Looking only at e-commerce channels, Aimer’s e-commerce sales expense ratio is 15%, while Manifan’s parent company Huijie shares is 9%. If all channels are used, the sales expense ratios of Aimer and Huijie are 42% and 39% respectively, which is the same overall.

It took less than five years for Ubras to have the confidence to compete with these three to four decades of brands. But we must also see that the strength of the established giants is still strong. Thousands of offline direct/distribution stores, deep into towns, counties and townships, this new brand with omni-channel capabilities is difficult to reach in a short time. At the same time, after being hit by the “no steel ring” for a short time, they quickly followed up, relying on accumulated years of R&D and supply chain foundations, with a multi-category, multi-brand matrix to carry out defense. Judging from the data in the first quarter of this year, the revenue and profits of Aimer, An Lifang, and Huijie are all recovering.

And then, Ubras will start to expand categories, expand channels, and expand their brands. The “tough battle” after explosive growth is the test of hard power.

The Greens and the Economy relationship status complicated

Status: 11.06.2021 5:19 p.m.

For a long time eco-party and industry could not go together. In the meantime, both sides have grown closer. But the relationship remains difficult: many companies are critical of the election manifesto. By Björn Dake, ARD capital studio Leuna Chemical Park in Saxony-Anhalt. Robert Habeck is standing on a construction site wearing a white hard hat. A new system for epoxy resin is being built here – including for wind turbine rotor blades. The Green boss listens with interest and keeps asking questions. As a farewell, the boss of the chemical park operator Infraleuna, Christof Günther, gives him a book and says: “We would of course be happy if you might honor us again in a different role.” The chemical industry is looking for contact with the Greens. Who knows if they won’t be in the federal government in a few months and Habeck will be a minister?

End of an enmity

Habeck is still party leader of the Greens alongside Annalena Baerbock. And as such, he seeks proximity to industry: “Chemistry has to become climate-neutral. The best way to do that is to talk to chemistry.” When visiting the election campaign in Leuna, there was no sign of fear of contact. Not anymore, as Habeck emphasizes: “The old hostility, greens and chemistry, where it used to be said: Close everything so that the environment is clean – it has long since become a constructive, creative, searching relationship with one another.”

Lobbyists are lining up

Dieter Janecek is responsible for this relationship. He is the industrial policy spokesman for the Green parliamentary group in the Bundestag. As the MP from Munich reports, the lobbyists are standing in line with him. Almost 50 percent of the election campaign dates are company visits. Many companies also wanted to show what problems they have with the energy transition. According to Janecek, the relationship is not free of tension. For example, the will be discussed The amount of the CO2 price and the question of what the state and what the market regulates. However, he sees the networking between the Greens and business at a high point. Ex-Siemens boss Joe Kaeser will speak at the federal delegates’ conference on the weekend. So are the bosses campaigning for the Green Chancellor candidate Baerbock?

Industry is critical of the election program

Joachim Lang from the Federation of German Industries does not want to make an election recommendation. He also says that relations with the Greens have improved. According to him, the party leadership has begun to be interested in the economy. He is all the more astonished by the Greens’ party program. The BDI chief executive calls it “a tribute to the left party base”. Lang accuses the Greens of wanting to replace the social market economy with state control and redistribution. He means, for example, rent ceilings, a higher top tax rate and a wealth tax.

Economy demands faster climate decisions

The industry association thinks it is good that the Greens want to push investments. In the draft of the election manifesto, on which the Greens delegates will vote on the weekend, there is talk of investments amounting to 50 billion euros per year. The money is to be spent on fast internet, rail expansion, research and urban development. This is to be financed primarily through loans. Regardless of who will rule after the federal election – the industry wants planning security in climate policy. Lang says: “Every new federal government will have to find clear, new decision-making paths because we no longer have the time for the previous decision-making paths.”

Weak economic literacy in state elections

Back in Saxony-Anhalt. Habeck is campaigning in the beer garden on the Peißnitzinsel in Halle. He stands in the shade of some trees and reports on his visit to Leuna. His conclusion: The contrast between climate protection and the economy has always been “stupid”. Climate protection is economic policy and location policy. There is applause from around 100 listeners. But in the state elections in Saxony-Anhalt last Sunday, the Greens won only a few votes. The election analysis shows that the economy and jobs remain weak points for the party. The pollsters of Infratest dimap measure the lowest competence values ​​here.

Clarification from Brinkhaus Petrol is also becoming more expensive with the Union

Status: 11.06.2021 10:40 a.m.

When it comes to the issue of gasoline prices, the focus is on the Greens. The grand coalition decided to increase the price of CO2 a long time ago. Union faction leader Brinkhaus made this clear again, but demanded an appropriate transition period. In the dispute over rising gasoline prices, Union parliamentary group leader Ralph Brinkhaus has made it clear that gasoline would also become more expensive with the Union at the head of the future federal government. “Petrol is getting more expensive, now a little bit, in the second half of this decade it will be really more expensive,” said the CDU politician in Im ARD morning magazine . This was already decided in autumn 2019. “The fight against climate change will not be for free.”

Not the “if”, but the “when” is up for debate

It is important to create realistic and fair transition periods. Germans do not have to sell their cars immediately, but they do have to be prepared to switch to electric cars or low-consumption cars in the future. The social question is not that gasoline will become more expensive. “But the social question is: Do people have a transition period that is long enough to adapt,” said Brinkhaus. This applies not only to gasoline, but also to heating. The plan is to absorb the rising prices through subsidy programs.

Gasoline price hike long been a done deal

In the debate about higher fuel prices, government spokesman Steffen Seibert had recently made it clear that the prices for fuels such as gasoline and diesel would rise in the coming years anyway. The federal government has decided to scale the CO2 price up to 2025, which already has “effects on all fuel prices”, said Seibert last Friday. This applies equally to gasoline, diesel and heating oil. The background to the statements: The coalition of the Union and the SPD had introduced CO2 pricing in traffic and buildings as a central measure in the fight against climate change. Since the beginning of the year, the CO2 price has been 25 euros per ton. According to previous plans, it should rise to 55 euros by 2025. According to calculations, this would mean a surcharge of at least 15.5 cents for a liter of petrol and at least 17.4 cents for a liter of diesel.

Baerbock’s advance fueled debate

In line with the new climate goals of the federal government, the Greens are calling for the increase to be brought forward and for the CO2 price to be raised to 60 euros per ton as early as 2023. At the same time, they propose to give back 75 euros each from the state revenue from the CO2 price to the citizens in order to avoid social upheaval. Most recently, the Green Chancellor candidate Annalena Baerbock fueled the debate. According to her party’s draft program, she advocated a gasoline price increase of 16 cents and, after her announcement, received a lot of criticism, especially from the ranks of the SPD. CSU General Secretary Markus Blume also accused the Greens of proceeding ideologically in the climate debate. “For Annalena Baerbock, climate protection is above all a fight against drivers,” Blume told the media. Mobility shouldn’t be a luxury. Rural areas and commuters will not be allowed to bear the burden unilaterally.

A clear majority rejects gasoline price increases

Environmental groups have long accused the parties of “dishonest election campaigns at the expense of the climate and biodiversity” and argued that the German government itself initiated the price of CO2, which is already making fuel more expensive and will continue to make it more expensive. The opinion of the Germans is pretty clear: According to the latest GermanyTrend three quarters (75 percent) of Germans reject a gasoline price increase. 22 percent think such a measure is a step in the right direction. A switch from internal combustion engines to electric drives in cars is also rejected by 57 percent. 37 percent would support such a measure.

Scarcity also in the countryside Sought-after building land

Status: 10.06.2021 10:24 a.m.

For a long time, rural regions were considered the ideal place to realize the dream of an affordable home. In the meantime, not only have the construction costs increased. Finding a plot of land is often difficult. From Iris Völlnagel, SWR Sometimes Dirk Gaul-Roßkopf would like to be able to do magic. The mayor of Planig in Rhineland-Palatinate receives at least three inquiries per week, mainly from young families. You are looking for an apartment or a building plot. Many of them come from or live nearby. There are now around 100 inquiries piling up on the mayor’s desk. He would like to offer the families a home in the district of Bad Kreuznach, which has almost 3,000 inhabitants. From his point of view, the place has a lot to offer: many associations, two daycare centers, one elementary school. A train stop is to come in 2027 and the cities of Mainz and Wiesbaden can be reached in less than 40 minutes via the motorway. “That is why it is very important that the young people can stay here and that others settle down.”

Lack of living space – a nationwide problem

Only what to do when there is neither affordable housing nor building space? A problem that now exists all over Germany, especially in the larger cities and metropolitan areas. Many apartments in Germany are considered overcrowded. This means that an apartment has too few rooms in relation to the number of people. According to a survey by the Federal Statistical Office, this applied to 6.4 million people in 2019.

Every week the mayor Gaul-Roßkopf receives several inquiries from interested parties for building plots. Image: Iris Völlnagel In 2018, the federal government decided made their residential summit to have 1.5 million new apartments built in the current legislative period. That would have been around 375,000 per year. According to the latest figures from the Federal Statistical Office, a good 306,000 apartments were completed in 2020, around 293,000 in 2019 and around 287,000 in 2018.

Sought-after building land

But it’s not just about apartments, but also about the space to build. In the center of Planig there are ten building plots that would be ideal as building sites. “Ideal building plots, that would give at least three to four homes,” says Gaul-Roßkopf as he walks through the town. He has spoken to the owners several times, but they neither want to sell nor build on it. This is also a problem in many cities. The federal government tried to counter this with the building land modernization law. It is intended to strengthen the municipalities’ right of first refusal. For example, the law stipulated that in areas with tense housing markets, municipalities would be given more time and opportunities to purchase land or buildings for sale themselves in order to then build new apartments. Sounds good, but is of no use in practice, says Gaul-Roßkopf. “Where should a municipality like us, which is struggling with a budget freeze, still spend money on building land?”

Mayor Gaul-Roßkopf has high hopes for an ongoing construction project in Planig. Image: Iris Völlnagel

Future in plan

The mayor Gaul-Roßkopf is therefore placing a lot of hope in a new construction project. At the entrance to the community, several blocks with two-story single-family houses are being built on 4800 square meters. Most of the objects have already been sold, costs: from 300,000 euros. In addition, the community on the outskirts is in the process of developing a new development area. “The further we go outside, the more expensive it gets. Because wherever roads and everything have to be made, the price of land will also go up,” said the mayor. Compared to some big cities, the prices in Planig may still be cheap. But the dream of a cheap country apartment is quickly over.

Economic aid will be extended The Bridging aid III gets a “plus”

As of: 06/09/2021 1:56 p.m.

Many companies that have been closed for a long time due to Corona can reopen. But because the situation is still difficult in some industries, several aids will be extended until the end of September – including the short-time working rules. The simplified access rules for short-time work due to the corona pandemic will be extended by a further three months beyond the end of June. The economic crisis caused by the pandemic is “not over yet” and it is therefore important to continue protecting jobs, said Minister of Labor Hubertus Heil. The cabinet has therefore decided to extend the rules, as there are companies “that need short-time work beyond June 30”. The SPD politician referred, among other things, to the event industry. In the justification for the proposal for the cabinet, it is said that, in the view of the federal government, there are still “uncertainties” despite falling corona numbers and vaccination progress. It is about “stabilizing employment relationships and thereby avoiding unemployment and possibly bankruptcies as far as possible”. Above all, financially heavily burdened companies in the retail trade, in the entertainment, travel and tourism industries and in the hotel and restaurant industry, need easier access to short-time working beyond June 30, 2021.

Additional costs for BA of 2.6 billion euros

In addition to easier access to short-time working allowance, the full reimbursement of social security contributions for companies is to be extended. The federal government is making around 2.6 billion euros available for both instruments. Salvation announced the move in May and speaking of planning security for companies. Since the beginning of the year, the BA has already spent over 13 billion euros on short-time work. It is about “continuing to consistently secure employment” and building a “bridge to the time of economic recovery,” said Heil. Short-time working has already saved millions of jobs during the crisis and will continue to do so “where necessary”. The CSU in the Bundestag also pointed out that companies would be brought over the summer in this way. Criticism came from the Greens, who spoke of a “missed opportunity”. The extension “should have been combined with the introduction of a minimum short-time work allowance” in order to provide security and prevent going to the job center, explained the labor market expert Wolfgang Strengmann-Kuhn.

Bridging Aid III will also be extended

Further economic aid will also be paid longer. As the Ministry of Finance and Economics announced, Bridging Aid III for companies and self-employed people will be continued until September 30, 2021 – under the new name “Bridging Aid III Plus”. Economics Minister Peter Altmaier (CDU) said the “economic engine” was running. Nevertheless, the exit from the pandemic is gradual. That is why the extension of the aid, which was previously limited to the end of June, is an important signal. Finance Minister Olaf Scholz (SPD) emphasized that Germany had weathered the pandemic better than many others economically because the government had resolutely provided aid. “And this support is not stopped shortly before the goal, that would be economic nonsense.” The bridging aid is the government’s central crisis instrument to cushion the consequences of the pandemic on jobs and companies. With the extension, the upper limit for the subsidies will also be increased – especially larger companies from the fashion and hotel industries, for example, had complained that they had not yet received the aid. At the same time, companies that take employees out of short-time working earlier or hire new employees should receive a “restart bonus”.

Mr. Nguyen Duc Hoang (Hai Ba Trung, Hanoi) said that he has lost his bald hair for about ten years. Although he is only 40 years old, his hair is already bald. Initially, Mr. Hoang also went to buy drugs to treat, stimulate hair growth … but the effect did not improve. Bald hair makes him lose confidence in communication. Many times I want to shave, but I can’t because of the specifics of the job, if I shave, I have to change the way I dress. Mr. Hoang works for a joint venture company specializing in supplying imported aluminum and plastic materials, so the reception is also a lot.

BSCKII – Quach Thi Ha Giang – National Hospital of Dermatology said that male hormone hair loss is the most common type of hair loss in men. The forehead, top, and temples are common hair loss sites. In these areas, the hair becomes thin, reducing the diameter of the hair, and reducing the density of the hair. Many men are not too concerned about their problems, peacefully living with thinning hair that progresses naturally, but many people are very worried, guilty, low self-esteem, significantly affecting their quality of life. . Many men complain that baldness causes psychological guilt. Dr. Giang said that currently the treatment of male pattern baldness needs to determine the cause and there are many single or combination therapies that have been performed for patients with positive effects. However, dermatologists need to advise patients to understand the advantages and disadvantages of each therapy so that patients can adhere to and maintain treatment. Currently, hair transplant to treat baldness is of great interest to many people, according to Dr. Giang, this technique was first performed in 1930 in Japan for the hair loss area in the eyebrows. This is a measure that can clearly and long-term improve male pattern baldness. Hair transplant is a technique to permanently transfer hair follicles from the occipital area of ​​the scalp to the bald area at the top and forehead. With modern techniques, the survival rate of transplanted hair follicles can reach over 90%. The prerequisites for this procedure are stable hair loss and a sufficient amount of hair in the occipital region for implantation (> 40 hair follicles/cm2). According to Dr. Giang, there are two basic autologous hair transplant techniques: FUT (follicle unit transplantation) and FUE (follicle unit extraction). Each technique has different pros and cons. First, FUT hair transplant technique – take a scalp flap from 8-12mm wide, 20-30cm long in the occipital area or horizontally behind the ear, then separate each hair follicle to transplant into the bald area. The flap of skin that has just been cut will be sutured, there is a risk of scarring. Monday, FUE hair transplant technique – precisely remove individual hair follicles from the scalp, then graft to the bald area. This method has the advantage of less scarring, less pain, less swelling, but it takes a long time to perform the technique. After the hair transplant, Dr. Giang said, the hair follicles will enter a phase of cessation of growth, so it takes at least 3 months to see cosmetic improvements in those who are transplanted. Local hair follicles can still continue to progress naturally, so it is necessary to continue to maintain systemic and topical treatments such as minoxidil, finasteride for the best effect. In addition, men can be treated with other methods such as pills, low-dose laser…

O Ruoc nodded: – Yes, the mussel rice said, already known of Hue people and happy, so is mussel rice, also of Hue people. But mussel rice was born when the tissue (which) is not clear, the mussel rice is known to be ok (that is ok). O Ruoc continued: – In the reign of King Gia Long, angry about two centuries ago, in Con Hen, there was a woman named Huynh, a very poor family, her husband was a fisherman, and in the early days, her husband could not catch anything worthwhile. Price, the couple had to eat cold rice with mussels that she found at the edge of the river. At first, I thought it was very hard, I thought they ate it and found it delicious, and then introduced them to the neighbors, the local people found it also delicious, gradually the rustic mussel rice dish spread to Con Hen. Con Hen is located on the poetic Huong River. The river section flowing through Con Hen is very clear water, has no alum and little silt. There is a layer of mud accumulating on the bottom that is very suitable for mussels and mussels proliferating and growing fast, very delicious meat. Con Hen is one of the most delicious mussels. Later, by the reign of King Thieu Tri, the mussel rice had spread to be popular and sold everywhere in the period of the country. In the reign of King Thanh Thai, Mrs. Nguyen Thi Thin came to Con and scratched the mussels, cooked mussel rice to advance to the king, and the king complimented the good taste, so the poor people’s dishes became royal dishes. Mrs. Thach was conferred both the title by the king and the king established the Hen Ward. Perhaps from here, the “illustrious” mussel is processed in many other ways, including mussel. Meaning mussel rice has been around for a long time, just after mussel rice. Name Hoc Ye nods, with the agreement of the gangsters: – O Ruoc says rational and rational. Ms. Hai said: – The mussel rice is very delicious, the mussel noodle is definitely delicious. It’s a bit strange that mussel rice and mussel rice sold in Saigon are not very hen.

O Ruoc laughed “hi hi”: – This is a good idea, O is ready only, a little thing. It is irresistible delicious with authentic Hue mussel vermicelli. Photo: Diadiemanuong. First of all, minced garlic onion that summer, listening to fragrant smell is to stir-fry the mussel meat, season with spices to absorb into the mussels, then turn off the heat, let the roasted sesame seeds in and mix well. Now let’s just take the bowl, “summer summer”, short for it. Based on this, it is necessary to infer what to do first, such as preliminary processing, but talk a lot, long and long as leeches cost labor. Now give vermicelli in summer bowl, next to vegetables including banana corn, thin banana stem, shaved spinach, lettuce, mint, basil, cilantro, coriander, chives, then chopped. It’s the turn for the main thing to make the vermicelli, put the mussels in, the top is crispy pork skin, sprinkle a pinch of roasted peanuts with oil and a little cashew color, scoop a spoonful of sautéed satay, pour in, draw another spoon The soup was mixed with sugar to eat and then put it in again, finally pouring the seasoned broth to taste… started mixing the chopsticks and enjoying the strange taste only summer. “Summer …”. O Ruoc just taught to listen to … because of craving! O Ruo smashes his hand on the table: – More over that summer, to keep listening. Go to mussel first, O saw that there was a variation in Saigon, that was to add more cockles. There is also a place where you do not cook like Hue mussel, but you cook broth, people call it “mussel rice vermicelli”. Perhaps this is a variation from fish noodle soup. Cook broth with tomatoes, pineapple, scallions … some people cook with vegetables, mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, celery, satay … And similarly, replacing mussel with don is called vermicelli don broth, don don is like a mussel but smaller, more abundant in Ve and Tra rivers and is the specialty of these two regions in Quang Ngai; replaced by clam to produce soup clam vermicelli, shrimp and squid too; A little bit “precious to touch the clan”, we use shrimp, the vermicelli for the “noble” world, for the rich, use crabs, “precious … precious … to touch the clan”, the giant … it is lobster. O Ruoc is really fun. Lade I and friends really thank O very much for teaching wholeheartedly. Goodbye O, I’ll come back to bother O. O Ruoc waving his hand when he touches Hue food: – Teeth (stars) that bother, bother with tissue, bother with tissue, O is so happy, whatever you need to come, summer (so hen).
