soviel zum Thema "Gemischtwarenladen"...

Das Rakuten Travel keine Corona Auswirkungen zu spüren bekommen wird war aber wohl schon ein Scherz,oder ?

Das du Zertifikate nicht kaufst iyst gut,man sollte etwas davon verstehen.
Eine Aktie aber ständig nachzukaufen,"zu verbilligen",die seit 6 Jahren nicht performt,das ist ein Anfängerfehler den du nicht zum ersten Mal machst (Stichwort Local.com).

Rakuten hat jetzt lange genug gezeigt,das mit den Fundamentals was nicht stimmen kann oder wie erklärst du dir diese krasse Underperformance in den Jahren der Börsen Hausse ?  

for its first 5G cloud-native mobile network

10 March 2020

Espoo, Finland – Nokia today announced Rakuten Mobile will deploy the Nokia 1830 Photonic Service Switch to power its reconfigurable photonic mesh mobile backhaul network. Rakuten Mobile, Japan’s newest mobile carrier, is set to launch the world’s first end-to-end fully virtualized cloud-native 5G mobile network. The deployment of Nokia’s cutting-edge coherent and optical component technologies will enable Rakuten Mobile to easily and flexibly grow its network bandwidth for the rapid rollout of 4G and 5G services.

The mobile network will be built upon a nationwide optical infrastructure covering all 47 prefectures throughout Japan and supporting backhaul and data center interconnect (DCI) applications. Nokia’s wavelength routing technology will be used in both the long-haul and metro optical networks, creating a photonic mesh – the first of its kind for a mobile backhaul network. This will enable Rakuten Mobile to support surging mobile data traffic and a new generation of innovative customer services.

Nokia’s platforms are specifically engineered for the space and power constraints of mobile backhaul and edge computing networks, making them ideally suited to provide transport for Rakuten Mobile’s planned edge data centers. Rakuten Mobile’s backbone network will be optimized for maximum capacity and lowest cost per bit with Nokia’s industry leading Photonic Service Engine 3 (PSE-3) super coherent chipset and C+L Ultra-Wideband wavelength routing.

Home DNA testing gains popularity in aging Japan
Jul 18, 2018

DNA testing at home is starting to gain traction nationwide as more people age and seek answers about their risks for diseases.

The market for consumer genetic tests is poised to reach ¥6.6 billion ($58 million) in sales by 2022, up from ¥4.3 billion last year, according to Fuji Chimera Research Institute. The sector is dominated by two domestic companies, Genesis Healthcare Co. and Genequest Inc. For ¥5,000 to ¥30,000, customers can send off a cheek swab to find out anything from their propensity for alcohol intolerance and allergies, to their risk of diabetes and stroke.

Genesis, the No. 1 testing firm with 70 percent of the domestic market, has compiled data for more than 600,000 users, and is aiming to reach 1 million this year. It also operates as GeneLife in Japan. Rakuten Inc. invested ¥1.4 billion in the Tokyo-based startup last August, with CEO Hiroshi Mikitani joining its board.

Don't try to time the market.

Many popular stocks have dropped more than 10% from recent highs thanks to the market volatility, but Buffett advised against trying to time the market and said investors should instead focus on the value of the companies they are buying. "I don't think anybody knows what the market's going to do. I think you ... know whether you're making an intelligent purchase at a given price," he says. Buffett said investors shouldn't worry about where a stock's share price has been or where it is going and simply consider the current valuation of the company.

Rakuten Ready ROI Study Reveals The Fastest And Most Profitable QSR Order Channel

SAN MATEO, Calif., March 11, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Rakuten Ready, the mobile Order for Pickup technology leader defining the future with solutions that deliver a superior in-store experience, today unveiled their inaugural Rakuten Ready 2020 ROI Study to understand how and why to shift the order mix to Order for Pickup, and why utilizing the right technology will improve both profitability and the customer experience.

Secret shoppers visited Burger King, Chick-fil-A, McDonald's and Taco Bell locations in 30 cities to place in-person orders. The Rakuten Ready ROI Study showed that Order for Pickup is the most efficient channel, allowing restaurants to serve customers up to 2X faster than Drive-Thru and 3.6X faster than In-Person ordering. For example, the study found that Chick-fil-A's order for pickup was 2X faster than the Drive-Thru and 3X faster than ordering In-Person.

Rakuten Ready is a location-centric mobile commerce platform that connects stores and restaurants with mobile customers. The solution makes ordering ahead and picking up merchandise or food easy and efficient. Founded in 2013 as Curbside by former Apple leaders in location services, the company works with leading retailers such as Kroger, CVS and Nordstrom, and leading restaurant chains such as Pizza Hut, Chick-fil-A, and Chipotle to scale their order ahead programs. The company is enabling the rapid growth of store pickup and fulfillment programs globally.

Kyle Hollasch, product marketing director for optical networking at Nokia, said that Rakuten's deployment is unique because it's the first time a reconfigurable optical network will be used for mobile backhaul. This technology is more commonly used in core networks and metro networks, Hollasch said. "What is unique here is that they are building this from the ground up and want all the capabilities that you see in an optical core network," he said.

One of the advantages of a photonic mesh mobile backhaul network is that the operator can move wavelengths around and respond to events on the fly. "Generally, you can add and move capacity around," Hollasch said.

And while it's possible to use an optical mesh backhaul network for traditional wireless networks that aren't fully virtualized, Hollasch said that it's much easier to combine this technology with a cloud-native 5G network. "It's harder for existing networks that aren't greenfield," he said, adding that this technology initially was used in core networks and now – as the technology becomes smaller, cheaper and denser – it can be used in smaller metro networks.

The coronavirus has caused indiscriminate selling across all industries, with unprofitable holdings getting hit the hardest. This panic-driven market has hammered Lyft and its profitless operations. Investors are dumping LYFT under the notion that the populous will stop using ridesharing services in the wake of this virus.

Ridesharing volume has been up in the beginning stages of this virus’s spread, and both Uber & Lyft have reiterated their 2020 guidance. Individuals are using Lyft and Uber increasingly to avoid public transportation, where the spread of this new pathogen seems more likely.

This temporary boost in ridesharing will likely fade if the virus’s transmission proliferates in the US, which many specialists are anticipating. People have already been increasingly working from home, and this trend will likely continue. I don’t expect that ridesharing will diminish all together as it is perceived safer than public transit with this virus on the loose. I suspect that temporary short-term headwinds in this segment will only remain until the coronavirus is under control.

The amount that LYFT shares have been punished is far from justified, and I think this stock is ripening as an excellent buy for your long-term portfolio.

A solid way to get access to new movies without a subscription

Technology is a driving force behind changes to traveller habits and here’s a couple of examples from the US market. Among its many technology declarations at the CES show in Jan-2020, US major Delta Air Lines revealed its ambitions to transform its app into a true concierge, and its partner Lyft could help the airline achieve those aspirations.

Upon departure from the airport, Lyft offers Fast Match, Mr Zimmer said. “Instead of going to a hectic pickup area, you can use a unique security code to match with the next available driver that pulls up…” , he explained.

As Delta and Lyft contemplate new options for customers, recent research by Phocuswright shows that transportation network companies (TNCs) like Lyft are launching services that make them look more like traditional car rental companies, highlighting a pilot by Lyft launched in July 2019 of daily rental service in two California locations, West Oakland and San Francisco. The rentals are available through the Lyft app and include pickup and drop off at the rental lot.

Messaging apps have completely changed the way people consume mobile messaging, and with it, the kind of relationship they have with personal technology like their smartphones. But it’s also changed companies’ marketing habits.

This is a major shift not only in how brands communicate with consumers, but – crucially – how consumers communicate with brands. The beauty of messaging is that it’s two-way – while brands may still send some ‘Do not reply’ messages, usually customers can reply to ask questions, clarify details, change booking arrangements, and so on. Consumers now expect this – they want to engage with brands in a very different way. They’ve been kept on hold one too many times and prefer the ease and convenience of messaging instead. As a way of communicating, it’s native to how people use messaging for their own ends – they can talk to a brand just how they talk to their friends, family or colleagues. It’s a shift to what in America they call the direct to consumer (D2C) model. Effectively everything from prospection to sales to confirmation to delivery to post-sales is all done through messaging.

Impacted COVID-19 cities not seeing significant Lyft volume declines, says UBS 07:05 LYFT UBS analyst Eric Sheridan keeps his Buy rating and $64 price target on Lyft after hosting a conference call with its CFO Bryan Roberts. The analyst notes that the impacted COVID-19 cities are not seeing volume declines of 80-90% as many investors have feared, though the reduced capacity by airlines will slow airport rides. Sheridan adds that transportation is typically the "last to slow and first to recover" during periods of disruption, and he sees Lyft doing a "better job of segmenting rider cohorts to drive higher quality riders"
