the m1 data roaming service with wi - fi provides customers with affordable roaming options across multiple devices , such as the iphone , ipad and android - based smartphone and tablets .

influenza a virus matrix m1 protein is membrane associated and plays a crucial role in virus assembly and budding . the n - terminal two thirds of m1 protein was resolved by x - ray crystallography . the overall 3d structure as well as arrangement of the molecule in relation to the viral membrane remains obscure . now a proteolytic digestion of virions with bromelain was used as an instrument for the in situ assessment of the m1 protein structure . the lipid bilayer around the subviral particles lacking glycoprotein spikes was partially disrupted as was shown by transmission electron microscopy . a phenomenon of m1 protein fragmentation inside the subviral particles was revealed by sds - page analysis followed by in - gel trypsin hydrolysis and maldi - tof mass spectrometry analysis of the additional bands . putative bromelain - digestion sites appeared to be located at the surface of the m1 protein globule and could be used as landmarks for 3d molecular modeling .
m1 trades at 8 . 2x fy18f ev / ebitda , below the 9 - 11x of its local peers . valuations are supported by a forecast dividend yield of over 6 % .

it looks like the iphone and smartphone sales are controlling m1’s biggest problem the last few quarters , which is high churn rates . here is a summary of what i think of their results :
i assume you mean one of the new springfield armory inc m1s ? and not the d - day memorial ones ? i have a new
limited edition ,
springfield inc and i have shot it occasionaly . its very accurate and very nice , never a problem on the range . my only
compaint ,
is that it is very difficult to take apart . the trigger guard does not want to go back . i too want a wwii m1 garand to keep her company and probably will get one later from the cmp
a limited edition commemorative is no more or less than one of these commemorative plates or coins . they are made up of what ever , used usgi or commercial parts and fancied up . the only real value is in the eyes of the person owning them . we have a fellow here in n w missouri who made limited edition county commemorative winchester 97 ' s . a friend of mine bought one and decided to sell it and invest the money elsewhere . no go stuck with it . if you like them buy one and enjoy it but i don ' t think they would make a good financial move . just my opinion though . have a nice day .
i happen to have owned and liked sa inc new garands . however , these limited edition models imho are a likely no win deal as far as investments are concerned . you are better off buying their standard model and shooting it . keep it nice and it will likely be worth as much as a ltd down the road . imho
even if there is no entry of a fourth mobile player , we do not expect m1 to raise its payout ratio ( fy15 : 80 % ) or pay special dividends in the next two years .
hi thirt13n , take a look at how much international calls goes to the bottom line for m1 compare to the other 2 telcos . international calls disruption with 3g and data messaging and voip is a problem

singaporean fixed and mobile operator m1 limited ( m1 ) says its net income for fy2011 climbed 4 . 5 % year - on - year to sgd164 . 1 million ( usd83 million ) , while operating revenue increased 8 . 8 % to sgd1 . 06 billion . the company said the rises were driven by higher service revenue and handset sales ; service revenues rose 2 . 4 % y - o - y to sgd750 . 5 million , buoyed by strong mobile subscriber growth and an improved contribution from fixed services . further , turnover from non - voice services increased 3 . 7 % to account for 35 . 6 % of service revenue , fuelled by the popularity of smartphones , which are now used by around 67 % of total post - paid customers .
m1 continues to enjoy good billing momentum from multi - year enterprise and public sector jobs ( including smart nation projects ) . this has fuelled the 22 % yoy rise in fixed services sales in 2q / 1hfy17 .
the news of the m1 review came weeks after competitor telco starhub moved its account from long - time media partner mindshare to carat . meanwhile , last year singtel also moved its media account from mec to havas .

future platforms that support both cat - m1 and nb - iot may ultimately allow providers to hedge their bets , but until then it is crucial to understand the technical data and consider the real added - value before choosing .
lte - m is part of mobile iot solutions based on 3gpp standard release 13 released in june 2016 . it introduces a new category m1 device optimised for the iot able to address the lpwa connectivity requirements of key verticals .
m1’s mobile service revenue ( msr ) continues to be impacted by over - the - top ( ott ) substitution . msr fell 2 . 8 % yoy in 1hfy17 , driven mainly by the 17 % decline in prepaid revenue .
we welcome starhub to join us in this project , as their experience and diversity complement the strengths of cti and m1 . we are confident that this will create sparkling synergy for the consortium ,
mr . wong added .
cat m1 can enhance lte coverage for underground and in - building areas that challenge existing coverage . combined with telstra ' s existing leading lte coverage , customers can deploy a range of near real time applications in logistics , utilities , medicine , transport , mining , agriculture , manufacturing and many more . as cat m1 devices and solutions become commercially available , telstra is set to support their operation across its expansive 4g network which covers over 98 % of the australian population .

in this investigation we have explored the relationship between the weak allogenicity of cardiac myocytes and their capacity to present allo - antigens by examining the ability of a human cardiac myocyte cell line ( w - 1 ) to process and present nominal antigens . w - 1 cells ( hla - a * 0201 and hla - dr beta1 * 0301 ) pulsed with the influenza a matrix 1 ( 58 - 66 ) peptide ( m1 ) were able to serve as targets for the hla - a * 0201 restricted ctl line pg , specific for m1 - peptide . however , pg - ctls were unable to lyse w - 1 target cells infected with a recombinant vaccinia virus expressing the m1 protein ( m1 - vac ) . pretreatment of these m1 - vac targets with ifn - gamma partially restored their ability to process and present the m1 peptide . however , parallel studies demonstrated that ifn - gamma pretreated w - 1 ' s could not process tetanus toxin ( tt ) or present the tt ( 830 - 843 ) peptide to hla - dr3 restricted tt - primed t cells . semi - quantitative rt - pcr measurements revealed significantly lower constitutive levels of expression for mhc class i , tap - 1 / 2 , and lmp - 2 / 7 genes in w - 1s that could be elevated by pretreatment with ifn - gamma to values equal to or greater than those expressed in ebv - pbls . however , mrna levels for the genes encoding mhc class ii , ii , ciita , and dma / b were markedly lower in both untreated and ifn - gamma pretreated w - 1s relative to ebv - pbls . furthermore , pulse - chase analysis of the corresponding genes revealed significantly lower protein levels and longer half - life expression in w - 1s relative to ebv - pbls . these results suggest that weak allogenicity of cardiac myocytes may be governed by their limited expression of mhc genes and gene products critical for antigen processing and presentation .
customers who do not have bank accounts / atm cards can opt to make cash payment at m1’s imm and paragon outlets . customers will also need to complete a one - time verification process at any of the two outlets , as part of regulatory requirements .
qualcomm incorporated ( nasdaq : qcom ) today announced at mwc shanghai that its subsidiary , qualcomm technologies , inc . , is bringing lte categories m1 ( emtc ) and nb1 ( nb - iot ) connectivity to the wearables industry with the launch of the new
- hong kong ' s city telecom ( cti ) and singapore ' s m1 and starhub today signed the consortium agreement , as part of their bid to design , build and operate the passive infrastructure network capable of delivering ultra - high broadband speeds for singapore .
“m1 is proactively expanding upon their value proposition for international data roaming services by integrating global wi - fi access . m1 customers expect high - quality , innovative services that deliver excellent value . global wi - fi roaming complements their 3g and 4g roaming services to deliver a more robust set of connectivity options for international travelers” said steve livingston , senior vice president at ipass . “ipass omx combines the most technically advanced connection management software with the world’s largest commercial wi - fi footprint , offering new market opportunities for telecom service providers . ”
standby power consumption is a function of design and technology used , and essentially should not differ between cat - m1 and nb - iot . active power consumption does differ among the two technologies . it is essentially the multiplication of transmitted power density and the length of transmission .
if this becomes reality for the 34 - mile stretch of the m1 , which seems highly likely , it would certainly negate some of the current benefits of operating this section as a ' smart ' motorway where motorists are allowed to use the hard shoulder to reduce congestion .
payments for m1 remit transactions can be made conveniently at any one of the 915 axs machines located in shopping malls , office buildings and other sites islandwide using an atm card . this is unlike typical remittance services where customers have to queue at a physical outlet to deposit their payment .
operating costs grew to more expensive handsets and fixed services costs . m1 ' s net profits in q3 dipped 4 . 8 % yoy from $ 34 . 4m in 2016 to $ 32 . 8m in 2017 , according to dbs equity research . for the first nine . . .
if instead we use the same assumptions ( equal tx power , noise figure and target throughput ) , we will see that the above expectations hold : in ul both standards have the same coverage , and in dl cat - m1 has ~ 8db better coverage than nb - iot .
we met up with m1 last week . we expect its mobile service revenue to be slightly under pressure in fy16 / 17 ( - 0 . 6 % / - 0 . 4 % ) due to the recent launch of lower priced sim - only plans and upsized data promos .
coupled with higher capex , we lower our dcf - based target price by 22 . 6 % to s $ 2 . 40 . m1’s valuation is still not attractive , with fy16 ev / opfcf of 12 . 7x climbing to 16 . 5x in fy20 once earnings hit its trough .
this piece is about my reflection on what i see in the first quarter results . subsequently after the announcement , m1 share price gapped down . i am struggling to see where is the strong double bottom my friend b talked about . if you manage to spot it do let me know .
sometime down the road , maybe 30 - 40 years , i wouldn ' t be suprised to see them as kind of a niche item for lovers of all thing sa inc . but , i suspect a usgi m1 that is fairly correct ( especially correct barrel ) and in good shape will be worth a lot more . uncle sam ain ' t making any more , and scarce usgi parts are only getting scarcer . i ' d imagine that in 40 years , one with its original wwii barrel in good shape will be worth twice as much . if you really want an investment and are willing to spend a little more than the limited ed . costs , a collector ' s grade from the cmp will probably triple ( or more ) in value over the next 15 years .
starting with dl active power consumption , cat - m1 has substantially higher throughput support ( both x6 in bandwidth and higher modulation support ) than nb - iot . as a result , ue time for specific data to be received is substantially smaller , resulting in an estimated 50 % lower active power consumption than nb - iot .
management expects handset cost to remain high due to stiff competition and re - contracting / retention activities . its postpaid base contracted 4 , 000 in 2q17 as m1 shut down its 2g network and migrated 2g data subs to its machine - to - machine ( m2m ) platform , which is not part of the subscriber tally .
“we’ve had the m1 business since 2010 . it is a partnership that is built on mutual trust and a strong spirit of collaboration . we have great respect for each other and it is indeed an honour to continue this relationship with one of the strongest communications service providers in singapore , ” helen lee , managing director at zenith singapore said .
both cat - m1 and nb - iot are being pursued aggressively to become the de - facto connectivity solution for iot products . while both standards fare well in different scenarios , it is critical not to take market perceptions at face value but rather compare both solutions evenly , all things being equal , in order to make the right technology decisions .
the rac said it was a
landmark proposal
but warned that it would negate the benefits of the m1 upgrade for motorists – and said it feared it could just be the start . technical director david bizley said :
this is a landmark proposal as to the best of our knowledge motorway speed limits have not previously been lowered in order to comply with environmental legislation .
one 26 bit wiegand proximity reader or keypad can be installed for each m1 keypad on the system . the elk - m1pr is an internal proximity reader that permits touchless reading of m1prc proximity cards and m1prf proximity fobs . these cards and fobs are designed for use with the m1pr . if an external proximity reader is used , use the cards and fobs designed for that particular device .
according to 3gpp , the mcl for cat - m1 is 155 . 7 db while nb - iot is 164 db – an extraordinary difference of more than 8 db . on the surface , this would indicate a significant advantage for nb - iot’s performance . yet , this comes as a surprise because according to the shannon theory , low snr approximation capacity is independent of bandwidth if the noise is white .
the proven expertise and experience that the partners bring to the consortium , backed by their knowledge of the local operating environment and conditions , will ensure a strong and resilient bid . we are committed to the building of a network infrastructure for the future , one that will enable singaporeans to enjoy high - speed and cutting edge broadband technology in the years to come ,
said neil montefiore , ceo of m1 .

( latin clear ) - the central securities depository ( csd ) of panama - will , in april 2014 , launch an international link sponsored by panama ' s ministry of economy and finance ( mef ) to enable global investors to participate in panama ' s capital markets and strengthen the republic of panama ' s position as a key financial centre for latin america .
iván díaz g , chief executive officer & general manager of latin clear added :
by utilising euroclear ' s proven infrastructure , we will be able to offer our investors and issuers access to a broad range of international counterparties while simultaneously offering investors from across the globe easy access to panamanian government debt initially . we subsequently plan to add corporate debt and equities as well . this new initiative represents an important milestone for the panamanian securities market and for the region .
all securities accepted by euroclear are eligible for securities lending and borrowing except those that are limited by liquidity , fiscal , or legal restrictions . standard borrowings are allocated whenever a borrower has insufficient securities in its account to make a delivery , provided sufficient securities are available from lending . borrowings are reimbursed on the first overnight settlement process where securities are available in the borrower’s account . in the program , all securities made available by lenders are aggregated in a lending pool . securities are then distributed to borrowers and loans are allocated among lenders according to standard procedures .

greater distribution capabilities are a key part of our strategy to attract more investors ,
said josé oriol bosch , bmv chief executive officer .
allowing mexican investors easier access into investment funds will improve liquidity and develop the local market . at the same time , this agreement will provide mexican fund managers and distributors with more tools to manage their portfolios . close to 600 funds in mexico will be supported by tried and trusted electronic messaging . as part of a phased approach with our partners euroclear , this new fund processing venture will capitalise on automation of fund orders through a single interface in the first quarter of next year , followed by integrated cash settlement .
valerie urbain , ceo , euroclear bank stated :
together with our grupo bmv partner , we are actively stripping away excess risk and cost by creating a one - stop - shop for all domestic investment fund needs . we are honoured to be chosen by this market to address real inhibitors to growth . there is no reason why investment fund processing should lag behind other asset classes when it comes to placing buy - or sell - orders through to final trade settlement . as of early next year , one simple electronic order from the distributor will automatically trigger the end - to - end , delivery - versus - payment settlement process , eliminating heavy cash reconciliation and generating significant savings .
in addition to its role as an international central securities depository ( icsd ) , euroclear also acts as the central securities depository ( csd ) for belgian , dutch , finnish , french , irish , swedish and uk securities . a csd is a financial institution that holds securities , such as bonds and shares , and provides for safekeeping of these assets . a csd also allows for the settlement of securities transactions . a transaction is settled once the buyer’s account has been credited with the purchased shares and debited the agreed cash amount , and the seller’s account has been debited the shares and credited the sales amount . the credit and debit movements occur simultaneously through a process known as delivery versus payment ( dvp ) .
a clearing house is a financial institution that acts as an intermediary between buyers and sellers of financial instrument . they take the opposite position of each side of a trade , acting as the buyer to the seller and the seller to the buyer . for example , if wendy and nathan enter into a transaction in which wendy agrees to sell 100 shares of amzn to nathan for $ 1 , 180 per share , nathan will have to pay $ 1 , 180 x 100 shares = $ 118 , 000 . the clearing house credits nathan’s account with 100 amzn shares and deposits $ 118 , 000 to wendy’s account . clearing houses , thus , ensure that the financial markets operate smoothly and efficiently . one of the world’s largest clearing houses is euroclear .

buenos aires has sought to pay most of its creditors who joined its 2005 and 2010 debt restructurings , but has rejected the court ' s order to pay the hedge funds which refused to join those restructurings , the so - called holdouts .
the holdouts are demanding the full value of their bonds , while those who participated in the restructurings , after argentina defaulted on $ 100 billion in debt in 2001 , accepted writing off up to 70 % of the value of their holdings .
buenos aires says it would be unfair to creditors who participated in the restructuring , and possibly undermine the restructuring deal , if it meets the hedge funds ' demands .
everyday the noose gets tighter . i wonder when the bondholders will accelerate ? i feel sorry for the next prez unless its a k . then i don ' t care at all : )

i don ' t think it will change either . they need to change their society ' s mindset all the way down to their dna . corruption is as much a part of them as the air that they breath . some on here hopin and wishin for macri , change for change sake is a nice dream but as i have said the die is cast and i don ' t see any way the economy can improve without the society improving and that ' s not happening anytime in my lifetime .

under the terms of the agreement , both joint venture parties confirm the creation of a company to promote greater levels of electronic and automated processing . today , the mexican investment fund market worth mxn 2 trillion ( eur 100 billion ) is opening up to third party distribution , raising new challenges in terms of existing inefficiencies , costs and risks associated with the high levels of manual processing and the reliance on phones and faxes .
bmv fondos ' ambition , as a dedicated processing platform , is to reshape the industry by connecting the 28 active fund managers with the current 70 distributor houses using standardised messaging for order routing , unit settlement and related cash movements . confirmation of the joint venture is subject to several conditions , including regulatory approvals .

of the international stock exchange ( tise ) , based in guernsey , a british crown dependency .
fiona le poidevin , the ceo of tise , confirmed the exchange has had conversations with solidum about how securities issued on its blockchain might someday be publicly listed .
i very much look forward to seeing how solidum ' s venture develops ,
she told coindesk in an email .
solidum is currently in talks with the guernsey financial services commission to ensure the platform is compliant with tise requirements , which include paying an initial £10 , 000 ( $ 13 , 000 ) fee and £6 , 000 per year after that .
until then , though , the reinsurance contract itself remains with the original provider and the securitized notes purchased by the counterparties can be traded like any other security , until the notes are due in 2023 .
to jumpstart that trading , solidum partner and portfolio manager cedric edmonds said two funds are currently in the process of clearing regulatory requirements to join the group . once that process is complete and the first trades commence , edmonds expects those who have been unable to gain access to traditional platforms to be ilsblockchain ' s early adopters .
while solidum is now out to make banks and settlement platforms less necessary , the project has its roots in a thwarted effort to do business the old - fashioned way .
the london stock exchange group ' s crest settlement system — edmonds stumbled across multichain , an open - source protocol inspired by the bitcoin blockchain .
spun up a series of nodes to test how the shared ledger technology might be modified to
mirror what people do within the regular financial markets ,
he said .
the portfolio manager said that , while traditional middlemen collectively charge between $ 50 , 000 and $ 100 , 000 annually for the services , companies that want to issue securities through ilsblockchain would only need to pay $ 2 , 500 .
solidum ' s role here might resemble then a new , albeit more efficient , middleman . however , edmonds said his company is little more than a gatekeeper .
in its first issuance , solidum managed the blockchain nodes representing various roles , including playing the role of paying agent and blockchain sponsor , overseeing compliance with anti - money laundering and know - your - customer regulations .
we don ' t have an overriding system that controls it . once we ' ve created the nodes , given people access to the system , we can turn off our server and everyone can carry on quite happily .

basically , the question raised was : can a ba from the bank field deliver a good performance in a mission of construction such as for thomas & pierron ? ‘escent says yes . in fact , the knowledge about a field can sometimes limit the creativity of the ba and compel him to drown in the executing part of his job . on the contrary , a ba with a strong method and trained with cutting - edge coaching sessions can develop the agility to deliver the best analysis he possibly can .
to conclude , a good ba doesn’t necessary know about the field of activity of his / her customer . a fresh look coupled with agility is the signature of best bas .

this is our second krw transaction ; the first krw euro transaction was executed in 1997 .
* on march 3 , 2010 , ibrd agreed to increase the nominal amount of the bond by the issue of a second tranche for an amount of krw 114 . 5 billion with an issue price of 100 . 65 % ( settlement date : march 18 , 2010 ) . on april 7 , 2010 , ibrd agreed to increase the principal amount of the bond by the issue of a third tranche for an amount of krw 20 billion with an issue price of 100 . 15 % ( settlement date : april 23 , 2010 ) . on may 20 , 2010 , ibrd agreed to further increase the principal amount of the bond by the issue of a fourth tranche for an amount of krw 12 billion with an issue price of 102 % ( settlement date : june 3 , 2010 ) . the new total outstanding principal amount is krw 416 . 5 billion .

– the world bank ( international bank for reconstruction and development , ibrd , aaa / aaa ) priced today a usd 4 . 5 5 - year global fixed rate bond , its second usd benchmark in 2010 . this global bond was joint - lead managed by barclays capital , credit suisse , hsbc and j . p . morgan . this bond carries a coupon of 2 . 375 % , payable semiannually , and will mature on may 26 , 2015 . it was priced with a spread of 32 . 45 basis points over the 2 . 50 % u . s . treasury note due april 30 , 2015 , which translates to a yield of 2 . 472 % .
in a market characterized by volatility and credit concerns , investors welcomed the opportunity to place money in bonds from a highly creditworthy issuer . the order book grew quickly over the course of the 24 hour marketing period reaching a total size of usd 5 . 6 billion in over 140 orders world - wide .
we are delighted with the strong investor response to our transaction , especially considering the difficult market backdrop . ” said doris herrera - pol , director and global head of capital markets at the world bank .

the present transaction is consistent with the world bank’s longstanding practice of deploying its franchise as an issuer in the international capital markets to offer investors high - quality liquid instruments . this approach has direct benefits for world bank member countries as well , since this cooperative institution is able to fund its activities as a provider of financial services for its members on highly attractive terms .
sean taor , head of rates syndicate , barclays capital : “the ibrd brand has been carefully nurtured over the years and this transaction has proven its strength and following once more . to get this size done at such a good level versus peers and amongst such market volatility is an unequivocal vote of confidence from the market . ”
edward mizuhara , head of ssa syndicate , credit suisse : “we were delighted to have been involved in this highly successful transaction for the world bank . this was the world bank’s first usd 5 - year global since october 2008 and as such represented a rare opportunity for investors to extend duration on the world bank’s curve . consequently , the deal benefited from strong demand garnering a book of in excess of usd 5 . 5 billion , with the highest quality of accounts participating . the success of the deal following extremely volatile market conditions reflects how highly investors value the world bank’s credit . ”
pj bye , managing director , syndicate , hsbc : “world bank has once again taken a leadership role in reopening the global dollar market after an extreme period of volatility . the book is extremely diverse having tempted many investors off the sidelines who were waiting for the right credit to re - establish confidence in the sector . ”
john lee - tin , jr . , executive director debt capital markets , j . p . morgan : “with the launch of this new 5 - year global benchmark , the world bank continues to demonstrate that its appeal to investors is both global and vast . a tally of over 140 orders for greater than usd 5 billion in demand signifies that investors truly appreciate not only the world bank’s long - standing credit quality , but also its serial strategic approach to issuing bonds in the international capital markets . ”
