(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/11a112/the_2009_import_an) has
announced the addition of the "The 2009 Import and Export Market for Calcium,
Strontium, Barium, Rare Earth Metals, Scandium, and Yttrium in Iran" report to
their offering.
On the demand side, exporters and strategic planners focusing on calcium,
strontium, barium, rare earth metals, scandium, and yttrium in Iran face a
number of questions. Which countries are supplying calcium, strontium, barium,
rare earth metals, scandium, and yttrium to Iran? How important is Iran compared
to others in terms of the entire global and regional market? How much do the
imports of calcium, strontium, barium, rare earth metals, scandium, and yttrium
vary from one country of origin to another in Iran? On the supply side, Iran
also exports calcium, strontium, barium, rare earth metals, scandium, and
yttrium. Which countries receive the most exports from Iran? How are these
exports concentrated across buyers? What is the value of these exports and which
countries are the largest buyers?
This report was created for strategic planners, international marketing
executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for
calcium, strontium, barium, rare earth metals, scandium, and yttrium in Iran.
With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with
a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics which
appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on
macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for calcium, strontium,
barium, rare earth metals, scandium, and yttrium for those countries serving
Iran via exports, or supplying from Iran via imports. It does so for the current
year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models.
In what follows, Chapter 2 begins by summarizing where Iran fits into the world
market for imported and exported calcium, strontium, barium, rare earth metals,
scandium, and yttrium. The total level of imports and exports on a worldwide
basis, and those for Iran in particular, is estimated using a model which
aggregates across over 150 key country markets and projects these to the current
year. From there, each country represents a percent of the world market. This
market is served from a number of competitive countries of origin. Based on both
demand- and supply-side dynamics, market shares by country of origin are then
calculated across each country market destination. These shares lead to a volume
of import and export values for each country and are aggregated to regional and
world totals. In doing so, the publisher is able to obtain maximum likelihood
estimates of both the value of each market and the share that Iran is likely to
receive this year. From these figures, rankings are calculated to allow managers
to prioritize Iran compared to other major country markets. In this way, all the
figures provided in this report are forecasts that can be combined with internal
information sources for strategic planning purposes.
After the worldwide summary in Chapter 2 of both imports and exports of calcium,
strontium, barium, rare earth metals, scandium, and yttrium, Chapter 3 goes into
detail on imports, but for each major country of origin serving Iran. A "major"
market is defined as a country where Iran represents a substantially large share
of either imports or exports. For each major country exporting to Iran, one can
thus observe how important Iran is to that exporting country compared to other
countries of the world. Chapter 4 does the same, but for exports of calcium,
strontium, barium, rare earth metals, scandium, and yttrium originating from
Iran, for each major country of destination. In doing so, one can discover the
share that Iran has in each major market; this share value is often used as a
measure of competitiveness for Iran. In all cases, the total dollar volume and
percentage share values by major trading partner are provided. Combined,
Chapters 3 and 4 present a the total picture for imports and exports of calcium,
strontium, barium, rare earth metals, scandium, and yttrium to and from Iran to
and from all other major countries in the world. "Calcium, Strontium, Barium,
Rare Earth Metals, Scandium, and Yttrium" as a category is defined in this
report following the definition given by the United Nations Statistics Division
Classification Registry using the Standard International Trade Classification,
Revision 3 (SITC, Rev. 3).
