This report is NanoMarkets’ latest report analyzing the CIGS industry and its prospects for the future. NanoMarkets has been covering the CIGS space since CIGS’ earliest days and this report should be regarded as a major guide to the future of CIGS, compiled with an insider’s knowledge. It examines the future of this important solar panel technology from both the standpoint of the technical and the commercial. And it does so with a background in which it seems likely that many of the subsidies that have helped solar in the past will fade away and that the world economy will not return to the strong growth of the last decade for quite some time.

Manufacture Solar Panels (Polycrystalline and Monocrystalline). Invest in Ren...Ajjay Kumar Gupta
New solar panels are available in two different types, polycrystalline and monocrystalline. Which type of solar panel works best? Many factors go into choosing the right solar panel for your home or business, including your energy needs, price, and how long you plan to use the system before selling it or replacing it with another solar panel system. In this Video, we’ll discuss what types of solar panels exist and the differences between them so that you can choose the best one for your needs.

Multi Objective Optimization of PMEDM Process Parameter by Topsis Methodijtsrd
In this study, MRR, SR, and HV in powder mixed electrical discharge machining PMEDM were multi criteria decision making MCDM by TOPSIS method. The process parameters used included work piece materials, electrode materials, electrode polarity, pulse on time, pulse off time, current, and titanium powder concentration. Some interaction pairs among the process parameters were also used to evaluate. The results showed that optimal process parameters, including ton = 20 µs, I= 6 A, tof = 57 µs, and 10 g l. The optimum characteristics were MRR = 38.79 mm3 min, SR = 2.71 m, and HV = 771.0 HV.

Position Sensor IC Innovations Creating Value in Automotive ApplicationsHEINZ OYRER
Realizing that innovations in electronics can complement production innovations in gaining a competitive advantage, semiconductors are becoming increasingly important in the automotive value chain. Sensing is a major function of the electronics system, with position sensors as the biggest market segment in regards to automotive sensor demand. Magnetic position sensors in vehicles are increasingly installed for applications such as throttle valve position, suspension control, power assisted steering, electronic gas pedals, electronic brake pedals and adaptive headlight systems. In addition to previously mechanically-driven applications such as power steering, transmission actuation and engine cooling systems are also increasingly being electrically-powered, driving the demand for brushless DC motors and therefore stimulating the demand for motor position and control sensors in the automotive sector.
The generation, transmission, and distribution of power involve electrical facilities, apparatus, and components, to carry the electrical energy from its generating site to where it is utilized. An important part of this power system is the cable system that is used exclusively to carry power from the main substations to secondary substations at load centers.

Effective Corporate Tax Rates - A Global ComparisonEric J. Weigel
A look at current and historical median tax rates for a sample of close to 14,000 global companies. Tax rates are calculated from financial statements rather than tax forms. Significant tax arbitrage opportunities exist leading to a fertile environment for tax inversions. Legislation to close the "tax gap" is likely to lead to a competitive response by low-tax countries
2. Motivation
• A top-down view has become an integral component in
managing equity strategies in today’s capital markets
• Two commonly used top-down approaches used by global
equity managers involve country/region and industries/sectors
• A significant portion of the value add and risk of equity
strategies derives from these two top-down components
• The relative importance of these top-down components varies
over time, but remains a significant driver of equity returns
• The growth and evolution of Exchange Traded Products (ETP)
allows for efficient implementations of country and industry
views

4. Industry Selection Methodology
• MSCI industry indices denominated in US Dollars
• Expected return building blocks:
• Valuation
• Income Generation
• Growth
• Profitability
• Sentiment/Momentum
• Industries are ranked from 1 (highest return potential) to 24
(least return potential)
• Deviations from benchmark weights are proportional to the
expressed industry preference rankings

16
18. • Our top ranked region from an expected return perspective is
emerging Asia
• EMEA looks cheap but lacks growth – serious value trap
potential
• Developed Europe ranks last – valuations are not attractive
enough to offset lack of growth and negative sentiment
• North America looks expensive and lacking enough growth and
profitability. Sentiment is propping up the region. Large caps
look more attractive than small caps

20. Portfolio Management Implications
• The cap weighted global equity market is significantly skewed toward
the US (44% weight)
• Even though we rank the US in the middle of the pack, it still merits a
36% weighting in our target portfolio
• While each equity market weight in our target portfolio might be small,
in aggregate emerging markets have a target weight of 30%
• Larger equity markets are, in general, underweight
20
21. Portfolio Management Implications
• Expected Tracking Error: 2.00%
• Expected Volatility: 9.68%
• Beta with Benchmark: 0.94, Correlation to Benchmark: 0.98
• Active weights are proportional to expected return views
• Underweight in the US finances emerging market over-weight
21
22. Asia is a valuation and recovering growth story.
Sentiment is highly volatile within Developed
Asia markets as Japanese economic policies
are significant drivers of performance
22
23. EMEA may prove to be a value trap while
we expect Developed Europe to be of
interest to some income seeking investors
but currency risk should be hedged
23
24. Valuations in North America are stretched
with sentiment propping up the regional
outlook. Latin America is inexpensive, but
lacks growth and sentiment is poor
24
25. Industry and Country Views - Summary
• The US equity market rates possesses middle of the pack expected
returns
• Valuations appear stretched and positive sentiment is propping the
market up. We recommend an under-weight position
• European equities do not appear inexpensive enough to warrant
significant positions. We rate Developed Europe as under-weight and
favor instead concentrated stock picking approaches
• EMEA as a block carries too much risk and despite low valuations we
would stay away at the moment
• We recommend an over weight to Asian equities (developed and
emerging). Macroeconomic developments in China and Japan are
expected to swamp stock specific issues
25
26. Industry and Country Views - Summary
• Our Developed and Emerging markets structural models show, at the
moment, a remarkable similarity in terms of industry predictions
• Energy, Materials and Banks rate as relative unattractive
• Valuations are not attractive enough and income potential will be significantly at
risk
• Expect a large number of dividend cuts in these industries
• Stock picking will be of greatest value within these sectors
• Health Care and Technology industries are expected to continue their
out-performance in 2015
• Health Care stocks do no appear expensive despite their impressive run. I would
expect more investors to demand better uses of cash either through higher
dividends or aggressive M&A activity
• Technology stocks usually carry significant stock specific risk, but as whole the
sector still rates as attractive given decent growth and in-check valuations
(except for some micro pockets exhibiting extreme growth). Some stress is
expected among tech companies serving alternative energy industries such as
solar and wind
