Comprehensive Research Featuring Daimler and Volkswagen – Global Automakers
Rebuild Competitive Landscape

Today, www.WorldStreetFundamentals.com released its industry report
highlighting Daimler AG (FWB:DAI) and Volkswagen AG Vz (FWB:VOW3). Full
fundamental and technical analysis is available at
www.WorldStreetFundamentals.com/Reports.php.

The recent economic situation has served as a driving force to effect
sweeping changes within the auto industry: (1) massive restructuring of
industry – not only in highly publicized bankruptcy courts – but also with
lesser known motions effecting –pre-emptive changes– within solvent
corporations; (2) new opportunities for growth over the coming decade
resultant from new landscape of leveraging existing operations to expand
emerging markets.

Several staples of market are projected to continue including high barriers
of entry, namely traditional economies of scale within operations, supply
chain and marketing. As a result, the major auto markets of China, India,
Japan, Korea, Western Europe and the U.S. are expected to maintain market
dominance well into 2020.

Only 10 global automakers account for over 77% of the production worldwide.
The top producer, Toyota Motor Corporation holds 11.96% market share,
followed by General Motors and Volkswagen at 10.68% and 10.03%
respectively. The remaining top producers are as follows: Ford Motor
Company (7.74%), Hyundai (7.68%), PSA (5.03%), Honda (4.98%), Nissan
(4.54%), Fiat (4.07%), and Suzuki (3.95%).

To remain competitive in this new landscape, automakers will need to both
recognize the changing requirements of Mature Market consumers – meanwhile
targeting growth within the Emerging Market. Strong economic growth and
fast-paced improvements to infrastructure act as catalysts for Emerging
Market consumer growth. Those automakers effectively leveraging current
Mature Market operations to make Emerging Market investments will set the
stage for growth over the next decade.
Among the European automakers, Daimler and Volkswagen have been highlighted
for their positions as well-respected quality-driven brands within the
automotive industry. The full report on Daimler AG (FWB:DAI) is available
