PRESIDENT OBAMA HALTS TROOP WITHDRAWAL FROM IRAQ:
NOT PRUDENT IN FACE OF IRANIAN PROVOCATIONS
Washington, DC (pa)- US President Barack Obama has ordered a halt to the withdrawal of US military forces from Iraq in the face of the recent surge in violence in that country that American officials charge is the result of Iranian actions, both formal and informal. Some world leaders have expressed concern that the American president will order military strikes on Iran, but President Obama reassured the American public and those paying attention abroad that the US was not considering attacking Iran but that the US would take decisive actions against any militant Iranian forces operating inside Iraq and would stand behind the Iraqi government and people as they seek to confront the recent violence that many had thought was behind them.
Within Iran, an “openness movement” has begun in urban areas among university students and other marginalized elements of Iran’s nascent civil society, including members of its business class and small merchants, urban workers, moderate Islamic clerics, and members of minority, i.e. non-Persian, ethnic groups. The movement has been tolerated inside Iran so far because its demands have been very modest, it contains many members of Iran’s moderate clergy, and it has not presented a direct challenge to Iran’s theocratic political system. The movement has also been tolerated as an outlet for the expression of dissatisfaction with Iran’s dismal economic performance in recent years, with officials in the Iranian regime hoping that the proper channeling of discontent in this manner will present a relatively harmless release for Iranians as opposed to a more organized and vehement anti-regime manifestation of popular frustration. Recently, however, some top members of the regime have begun to suggest that the “movement” represents a threat to the Islamic Republic of Iran and that it should be dissolved. Some within the openness movement worry that violent repression of their organization may be imminent, and have begun making contingency plans in the event that this occurs. The arrest of a dozen prominent dissidents in recent days may be just the beginning of a massive action against the “movement,” some of its supporters fear.
According to analysts of the US-Iranian relationship, US President Obama has been careful not to threaten military attacks on Iran because this could help the clerical regime rally support to it and justify a crack down on dissenters, as happened during the Bush administration. “Throughout the tenure of the last American president, the Iranian regime was able to use US pressure on it to repress internal opponents, claiming that they were provocateurs or in alliance with the United States. The ‘average Iranian’ rallied to his nation’s defense as would many people in other countries threatened by powerful outside forces,” explained Professor Niko Mincic. “But President Obama has been careful not to do this. He has only asserted the US commitment to Iraqi security and stability rather than threatening Iran directly. In this way, ferment is allowed to take place inside Iran without foreign instigation and thus with more legitimacy and more applicability to the local circumstances of the Iranian case. The democratic movement that is developing there now is taking place organically, without involvement from outside sources, and thus appears much more legitimate and acceptable to the ‘average Iranian.’ This has allowed the movement to more credibly challenge the Iranian regime from within,” Dr. Mincic said.
Iran’s recently improved relations with Russia may ironically be weakening the Islamic regime and strengthening its civil society opponents, some analysts note. While the new alliance with Russia gives the regime in Iran more diplomatic support in its clash with the United States, this same factor appears to be weakening the regime internally with its own people. The Iranian people are much more pro-Western than is their government and would prefer a stronger relationship with the United States and the West in general, according to experts on Iran. In contrast, the Iranian people are less comfortable aligning themselves with Russia, which they see as interested in a partnership with Iran only for geo-strategic reasons, not out of any affinity for the Iranian people. Russia’s growing support for the Iranian regime could have the unintended effect of isolating the regime even further from its own people, putting additional strains on state-society relations in Iran, expert observers say.
Economic News
Exchange rates showed little movement and the T-Bill rate held constant. Quarterly profits reported for Q4, 2010 were above expectations and the stock market continued its bullish streak closing Q1 at an all time high of 142.
Concerns were expressed by stock analysts as they felt the stock market responded in a much ‘diminished’ manner to the exceptional quarterly and annual profit reports. Some think the unease in the Middle East, especially with Russia forcing its way into the political scene, is making investors nervous. (See political news Q4, 2010 and above.)
Given current political events, economic forecasters lowered their estimates for 2011. While positive growth is expected, overall economic demand may trend down as business units, especially retail stores, reduce inventory levels. They may do so as a precaution against major disruptions in oil or a spike in oil prices that would in turn dampen sales. Through Q1, consumer demand has remained strong. If the current political crisis is quickly and peacefully resolved, stores are expected to start rebuilding inventories in Q2 and/or Q3.
Some believe we have entered a new era in business risk analysis. Given the tech crash in 2000 and the housing crash in 2008 and the global meltdown of financial markets following into 2009, management has become very risk adverse. Bad news which might be followed by even more bad news sends firms into a risk adverse position, that is into a liquid position, meaning cash instead of inventories. Firms are also likely to delay asset investments where possible.
Is the current political news ‘bad news’ that might be followed by more bad news? Normally, when considering the last few decades, the answer is no. But given the harsh lessons of the last decade, a ‘crash’ mentality is in place and the answer is yes. Bad news in 2010 – 2011 causes firms to immediately seek a more ‘safe’ position.
Q1, 2011 demand levels were (after seasonal adjustments) slightly lower than in Q4, 2010. Demand analysis attempted to determine if consumer demand was down or if retail units were lowering inventory levels. While not conclusive, it appears consumer demand was near normal.
Firms should take this into consideration in their marketing forecasts. Unless some major event in Q2 or Q3 occurs to shake consumer confidence or lower incomes, wholesale demand should not only rebound, but temporarily increase as normal inventory levels are reestablished.
Demand at the wholesale and distribution level fell more than 6 - 8% in all products in all areas in Q1 with declining inventories throughout the supply being the cause.
The ‘GREEN’ initiative voting deadline is nearing. Heated discussions are taking place. At this time there is no indication how the final vote will go.
Raw material prices of Type 1 reached a low not seen since Q1, 2008. Firms should consider building inventories for Q4 production if they have sufficient cash on hand or access to inexpensive loans. This runs contrary to the some who suggest that potential bad political news should have firms flee into a strong cash position. A phone survey of raw material suppliers have all confirmed that the bottom in prices has been reached and that Q2 will see some slight increases.
