Rakuten wesentlich besser als Rocket

- und daher habe ich mir nach dem Einstieg bei Alibaba, die inzwischem mehr als 20% gut gemacht haben, auch einige Rakutens gekauft.

Look Out Amazon, Here Comes...Rakuten?
Japanese e-commerce firm Rakuten announced on Tuesday it is acquiring Ebates for $1 billion.

The acquisition, which Rakuten hinted at last week, is part of the Japanese company?s push to grow its base beyond its domestic market and hopefully, become a global player. Having made some $1.2 billion acquisitions to date along these lines, this is Rakuten?s most ambitious move to date.

However, investors are dubious that the company can absorb yet another foreign acquisition, much less one the size of Ebates, despite Rakuten?s strong cash position.
Then there is the ever-present Amazon, which dominates the e-commerce market in the U.S. Few believe it will falter in the face of Chinese giant Alibaba, much less a Rakuten-Ebates combo.

Rakuten Goes Forth

Not surprisingly, Rakuten says it is undaunted. For starters, it has assembled a very interesting mix of acquisitions. There is messaging app Viber, which it purchased for $900 million in February, the Canadian ebook offering Kobo, Spanish video service Wuaki.tv, Viki, a digital content platform and Buy.com.
Now it has picked up Ebates.

My advice for shortsellers of Rakuten shares: Go panic first!

The high volume of Rakuten shares today and in the days before is after my estimates a good base for a coming shortsquzze.

I am sure, that in the next days, the shortseller must begin to cover.

The risks were lowered through the increase of equity capital of the amount of more than $ 2 billion trough the share offer some days ago.  

 

die momentan läuft dass diese Mistaktie Tag für Tag weiter fällt.

"My advice for shortsellers of Rakuten shares: Go panic first!"

Das ist hochgradig lächerlich. Wirklich.
This is highly ridiculous. Really.

Aber mach nur weiter so. Wie der Kursverlauf :-)

Das wird was ganz Spezielles sein, für ganz spezielle Typen.

Ansonsten kann man von einem komplett außer Rand und Band geratenem NIKKEI sprechen, doch auch dies geht an dieser Trash Aktie spurlos vorüber.

Bundeskartellamt prüft mögliche kartellrechtswidrige Behinderung von 1&1 durch Vodafone und Vantage Towers

Meldung vom: 02.06.2023

Anlässlich einer von der 1&1 Mobilfunk GmbH, Düsseldorf, eingereichten Beschwerde prüft das Bundeskartellamt, ob die Vodafone GmbH, Düsseldorf, bzw. die mit dieser verbundene Vantage Towers AG, Düsseldorf, 1&1 bei der Mitnutzungsmöglichkeit von Funkturmmasten behindert und damit eventuell gegen deutsche und europäische Kartellrechtsvorschriften verstoßen haben.

Andreas Mundt, Präsident des Bundeskartellamtes: ?Der beabsichtigte Markteintritt von 1&1 als vierter Mobilfunknetzbetreiber in Deutschland ist aus wettbewerblicher Sicht zu begrüßen. Naturgemäß erfordert der Aufbau eines eigenen Mobilfunknetzes hohe Investitionen und es müssen bei einem solchen Schritt unternehmerische Risiken eingegangen werden. Eine zentrale Aufgabe des Kartellrechts ist es, dem Verhalten von Unternehmen faire Spielregeln zu setzen. Dabei gilt für marktmächtige und marktbeherrschende Unternehmen, dass sie andere Unternehmen nicht unbillig behindern dürfen. Wir werden uns insofern genau ansehen, ob es gute Gründe für eine Verzögerung bei der Bereitstellung von Antennenstandorten für 1&1 gibt.?

5G Virtual Drone Tour Conducted by Rakuten Mobile in Kobe

JUNE 7, 2023 by RNN

Rakuten Mobile utilized its 5G network to successfully carry out a demonstration of a "virtual drone tour" above the city of Kobe, Japan. The goal of this experiment was to promote Kobe tourism by offering visiting Vissel Kobe fans a new stadium experience to make the most of their time before and after matches. Participants sitting in the stadium remotely controlled a drone as it streamed footage of Kobe in real-time overlayed with AR content to receive sightseeing information and coupons.

Speaking of no cell signal abroad, satellite-to-device connectivity could eliminate this problem altogether. But let?s look beyond the end of dead zones.

Let?s assume that satellite-to-device technology jumps beyond 2G connectivity, scales the cliff?s edge of 3G connectivity, and lands somewhere similar to 5G speeds. If that happens?and low-orbiting satellites like Rakuten?s can cover the globe?every mobile device on Earth would have broadband access.

Rakuten Mobile slashes capex budget

12 MAY 2023 Joseph Waring

Japanese open RAN pioneer Rakuten Mobile revealed plans to reduce capex over the next three years, targeting a JPY100 billion ($742.4 million) reduction this year in a move designed to accelerate its path to profit.

In its Q1 earnings release, Rakuten Mobile outlined a move to slice JPY300 billion from its network budget from 2023 to 2025.

JPY15 billion a month = JPY180 billion a year ($ 1.3 billion)

Chairman Mickey Mikitani noted on its earnings call a new roaming deal with KDDI will enable it to deliver ?a significant improvement in user experience and contribute to our financial health? by lowering network costs and operating expenses.

Rakuten Mobile stated roaming costs will increase slightly compared with its original capex plan, but overall expenses will decrease, with no change in its cost reduction target of JPY15 billion a month.

Der löschende Moderator, der permanent Informationen über Tochtergesellschaften von Rakuten löscht, irrt sich permanent.

Denn selbsrverständlich haben Informationen über die Aktivitäten von Tochtergesellschaften von Rakuten, z.B. Rakuten Bank, einen Mehrwert für andere Leser - basta (mehr gibt es da weiter nichts zu sagen).
