CBP To Start Live Testing Blockchain In IPR Arena

August 16, 2019 FreightWaves 0

Customs and Border Protection late this month will start live testing for blockchain’s applicability to intellectual property rights (IPR) enforcement, according to a document posted online in preparation for the August 21 Commercial Customs Operations Advisory Committee (COAC) meeting in Buffalo, N.Y.

The test is scheduled to last through late September, says the document posted by the COAC Next Generation Facilitation Subcommittee.

Since its last in-person meeting in March, the subcommittee’s Emerging Technology Working Group has “progressed” through the integration of industry and CBP systems for CBP’s ongoing proof of concept (POC) on IPR, the document says.

The POC strives to facilitate shipments based on known licensing relationships through the use of blockchain.

In another document posted in preparation for the COAC meeting, the COAC Trusted Trader Working Group posted additional recommendations related to forced labor for future implementation of the Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (CTPAT) Trade Compliance program.

The working group posted a first round of forced labor recommendations for CTPAT in February.

Among other things, COAC is recommending that CBP design program requirements to encourage participation to facilitate self-identification of low-risk importers; that CBP and stakeholders hold informal meetings to learn about typical corporate social responsibility programs; and that …

Psoriasis Treatment Market to Exhibit 8.2% CAGR, Rising Prescription Volume for Interleukin Inhibitors Segment to Boost Market: Fortune Business Insights

August 16, 2019 Globe Newswire 0

Pune, Aug. 16, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The increasing prevalence of psoriasis around the world is boosting the global Psoriasis Treatment Market, says Fortune Business Insights in their recent report. The report is titled “Psoriasis Treatment Market: Global Market Analysis, Insights, and Forecasts, 2018 – 2025.” According to the report, the market will reach US$ 37,634.2 Mn by 2026 from US$ 18,378.0 Mn in 2018, exhibiting a CAGR of 8.2% between 2018 and 2026.

According to the report prepared by Fortune Business Insights, the TNF inhibitors segment emerged dominant among drug classes. In 2018, the TNF inhibitor segment held 46.3% share in the market. However, in the coming years, the market may witness higher demand for biosimilar version leading to the decline in the price of TNF inhibitors.

Rising Prevalence of Plaque Psoriasis to Increase Demand for Treatment, Boosting Market

One of the major factor boosting the global Psoriasis Treatment Market is the increasing prevalence of the disease itself. The World Health Organization states that the prevalence of psoriasis is estimated to vary between 0.09% to 11.0% across all nations. This ultimately means that psoriasis is a serious problem. Psoriasis can occur to anyone irrespective of age but is usually reported to occur to aged people between 50 to 70 years. The rising geriatric population and their vulnerability towards diseases such as psoriatic arthritis are factor propelling growth of the market. These, coupled with the rising prevalence of plaque psoriasis, are likely to create growth opportunities for the market in the forecast period.

The rising availability of biologic and biosimilar products is helping the market for psoriasis grow rapidly. Increase in prescription volume of the biologic products and favorable reimbursement policies by governments are also helping the market grow and continue doing so in the forecast duration as well.

Port Report: East Coast Notches First-Half Growth For Box Imports

August 15, 2019 FreightWaves 0

Container volumes into U.S. ports slowed through the first half of 2019 due to the overhang from last year’s push to bring in containers ahead of tariffs and the uncertain economic outlook.

Thanks to the trade war with China, trans-Pacific import volumes took the biggest hit.  

The 10 largest U.S. ports by throughput reported loaded imports of 9.96 million twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs) in the six-month period ending June 30. The year-to-date total represents a growth rate of 2.1 percent.

The West Coast ports of Los Angeles-Long Beach, Seattle-Tacoma and Oakland saw container imports of 5.24 million TEUs from January through June, a 1.8 percent drop over the same period in 2018. 

The Port of Long Beach saw the largest slowdown in container imports, with year-to-date inbound volume of 1.81 million TEUs, a 9 percent decline from the same period in 2018. July saw another month of declining imports into the second-largest port in the U.S. 

Long Beach executive director Mario Cordero said the on-again, off-again tariff fight with China is “hitting the West Coast …

August 15, 2019 Jayson Derrick 0

Macy’s Inc (NYSE: M) presented to investors new details of a turnaround plan that sounds compelling but not enough to “turn the tide,” according to Morgan Stanley.

The Analyst

Morgan Stanley analyst Kimberly Greenberger maintains an Underweight rating on Macy’s with a price target lowered from $20 to $17.

The Thesis

Macy’s reported second-quarter results, which expanded its total core retail operations losses to $70 million for the first half of 2019, Greenberger wrote in a note. Total operating income dollars were 37% lower year-over-year at $361 million. More concerning is the fact that core retail EBIT dollars in the fourth quarter at $645 …
