  • Anvers est désormais accrédité pour le café arabica
    Le 11 juillet dernier, le marché à terme du café de New York (NY Coffee, Sugar & Cocoa Exchange) accréditait officiellement Anvers comme port de livraison du café arabica. Cette décision ne fait en réalité que confirmer une situation déja bien établie. L’année dernière, de par la croissance du trafic de café, le port scaldien était déjà devenu le numéro un en Europe. Cette consécration permettra cependant de faciliter le développement du trafic de café brut. Anvers est déjà accrédité par le marché à terme de Londres pour le café robusta. Pour le port scaldien, la position acquise dans ce secteur est d’autant plus importante qu’il s’agit d’un trafic impliquant dans les domaines de la manutention et du traitement à la fois un travail intensif et une importante valeur ajoutée.
  • CP Ships: la mutation de l’actionnariat à commencé
    N’aurait-il pas été préférable de reporter quelque peu l’opération d’introduction en bourse de CP Ships, une des divisions du conglomérat Canadian Pacific, et d’attendre une situation economique et boursière plus propice? La première journée de cotation du titre CP Ships a porté sur l’échange de 10.000 titres à la bourse de Toronto au prix de 17 CAD par titre, alors que les pronostics faits précédemment pour l’introduction en bourse faisaient mention d’un prix de 21 CAD. Sur base de ce cours de l’action, la valeur de cette entreprise se situerait au niveau de 850 millions d’USD... alors qu’en juin dernier, la valeur comptable de CP Ships était annoncée à 1,1 milliard d’USD, soit 51,15 mia. de BEF.
