Samsung still can't figure out why Galaxy Note 7 phones are exploding
http://bgr.com/2016/10/12/galaxy-note-7-fires-samsung-explanation/

Samsung confessed indirectly that samsung could not figure out why Galaxy Note 7 phones are exploding by its inquiry capability

>Samsung, gov't investigate cause of Galaxy Note 7 fires
http://english.yonhapnews.co.kr/news/2016/10/16/47/0200000000AEN20161016001900320F.html

SEOUL, Oct. 16 (Yonhap) -- Samsung Electronics Co. and the South Korean government have launched their own investigations to figure out what caused Galaxy Note 7 smartphones to catch fire after the tech giant halted its sales over recurring battery problems, industry officials said Sunday.

Samsung has been investigating components of its latest flagship phones after numerous reports of the device catching fire. The world's largest phone maker conducted a global recall last month citing faulty batteries, but it last week decided to discontinue its sales after some of its replacements running on different batteries also had overheating problems.

Separately, the state-run Korea Testing Laboratory (KTL) on Thursday began their own probe with five phones provided by Samsung Electronics that caught fire in the nation earlier this month, according to industry officials with knowledge of the matter.

KTL will not just limit its investigation into the batteries and will use latest testing technologies, including X-ray and computerized tomography, to find the exact cause of the problem, they added.

>>82403
"We have handed over the phones (that caught fire) to KTL and will cooperate with their investigation, but we can't just sit and wait for its result," a Samsung Electronics official said. "We have been mobilizing all possible resources to find the exact cause of the problems as soon as possible."

Samsung is also considering testing the faulty devices collected by the U.S. consumer Product Safety Commission, which issued two rounds of recalls of the smartphones, company officials noted.

The firm cut its forecast for third-quarter profit to 5.2 trillion won (US$4.6 billion), down from the 7.8 trillion-won, reflecting the estimated loss from halting Note 7 sales. On Friday, it again issued forecast of another mid-3 trillion-won (about $3.1 billion) in lost profit in the next two quarters.

Industry watchers say finding the exact cause of the Note 7's problem is crucial for Samsung to win back consumers' trust before the firm launches its new flagship model, the Galaxy S8, next year.

The bankruptcy has been coming for some months. Creditors have been working since May to restructure the South Korean company's debt, which totaled $5.5 billion in June.

Korean Air Faces Fallout From Hanjin Collapse

AUCKLAND—Korean Air’s exposure to troubled sister company Hanjin Shipping is expected to deal a huge hit to the airline’s finances this year. The carrier has forecast up to 383.3 billion won ($343.6 million) in losses related to its Hanjin investments. The giant shipping company entered bankruptcy protection this week, and some analysts say liquidation is a strong possibility. Korean Air and Hanjin Shipping are both part of the same Hanjin conglomerate.

The nut rage incident, also referred to as nutgate or nut return (Korean: 땅콩 회항, Ttangkong hoehang), occurred on December 5, 2014, at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City, when Korean Air vice president Heather Cho, having been dissatisfied with the way a flight attendant served her nuts on the plane, ordered the aircraft to taxi back to the airport's gate before takeoff.

First-class passengers, including Cho, were given nuts bagged in their original packaging (in conformity with the airline's procedures); Cho had expected them to be served on a plate in first class. Cho questioned the cabin crew chief about the standard procedure of serving the nuts. After a heated confrontation during which Cho assaulted him, Cho ordered him off the plane, requiring a return to the gate and delaying the flight by about 20 minutes. When the incident became public, Cho and Korean Air were heavily criticized, and in the aftermath, Cho resigned from one of her several executive positions at Korean Air. She was subsequently found guilty in Korean court of obstructing aviation safety and given a twelve-month prison sentence. The flight attendant and cabin crew chief returned to their positions by April 2016

>Samsung Ends Anonymous Web Reviews Amid Taiwan Probe

Samsung vs HTC: Samsung cheats, or is it better?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OixM7mxLv4g&feature=player_embedded

Samsung Electronics Co. ended an online campaign in Taiwan amid a local regulator’s probe into whether the company broke the law by paying for positive reviews of its products and negative comments about rivals.

Taiwan’s Fair Trade Commission is gathering information after receiving e-mails earlier this month alleging posts to online forums were suspicious, Sun Lih-Chyun, a commissioner at the regulator, said in a telephone interview yesterday. Samsung said in a statement the situation was “unfortunate” and it ceased using anonymous comments in online marketing last year.

Samsung, which has overtaken Apple Inc. and Nokia Oyj to lead the $294 billion smartphone market, last month unveiled its new Galaxy S4 handset during an event in New York’s Radio City Music Hall. Taoyuan, Taiwan-based HTC Corp., which released its flagship HTC One for sale last month, has lost market share amid competition and delays in shipments of own products.

“These are the two star products at least for the first half of this year,” said Warren Lau, an analyst at Kim Eng Securities Ltd. in Hong Kong. “So I would suspect that some sales marketing people will try their very best to market their products.”

>>82575
Posts to online forums are alleged to have included criticism of rival smartphones, including those made by HTC, and praise of Samsung’s products, Sun said. HTC has been asked to provide information, while Samsung has yet to be contacted by the commission, he said.

‘Insufficient Understanding’

Samsung Electronics, which announced its online communications credo in 2011, said it remains committed to engaging in transparent and honest communications with consumers.

The Suwon, South Korea-based company’s credo prohibits criticisms of competitors and their products and it voluntarily ceased using anonymous comments last year, it said in a statement today.

The situation “occurred due to insufficient understanding of these fundamental principles” of transparent and honest communications with consumers, Samsung said yesterday.

The commissioners discussed whether the posts would breach one of the articles of fair trade regulations relating to false advertising, with penalties of as much as NT$25 million ($837,000) an incident, said the FTC’s Sun.

A more serious breach of a separate article on defamation is also being investigated and could lead to criminal charges with imprisonment of as long as two years per case, Sun said. A defamation case would first require a victim to file a formal complaint, he said.

“We are disappointed that a competitor would resort to misleading consumers to discredit our innovation,” HTC said in a statement yesterday.

The Bank of Korea,the central bank of South Korea,buys 1.5 trillion won in bonds to stabilize market

With the financial market jittery since U.S. Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen’s hinted at raising U.S. interest rates, Korea’s central bank announced it intends to intervene in the local market with the hopes of stabilizing it for the first time in eight years.

The Korean central bank said it will buy six government bonds worth 1.5 trillion won ($1.27 billion) at 2 p.m. today ranging from those with maturities of three years to those that mature in 20 years.

This is not the first time that the Bank of Korea has purchased Korean bonds; it purchased them three times last year alone. The last time was in October 2015, when the BOK bought 700 billion won in bonds. However, this is the first time since the 2008 global crisis that the Korean central bank is purchasing such a massive amount of government bonds. That year, the bank bought 1 trillion in treasuries on Nov. 19.

Market instabilities have risen since Donald J. Trump’s upset victory in the U.S. presidential election on Nov. 8. After the real estate mogul won the election, Korean bond interest has been rising rapidly, breaking this year’s all-time high.

Bond yields expected to rise on inflation concerns
https://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/biz/2016/11/123_218640.html

Bond yields are expected to rise further on the forecast of higher and faster inflation on the back of President-elect Donald Trump's pledge for fiscal stimulus, tax cuts and tightened immigration laws, analysts say.

Yields on government and corporate bonds have been rising toward record highs as global investors have been pulling their money out of their fixed-income portfolios on concerns that Trump's fiscal policy would not only increase U.S. debt but also bring forth a contractionary monetary policy to tame the expected inflation.

"The local yields on bonds are expected to continuously rise (due to the forecast of higher inflation), despite the central bank's commitment to market stabilization," said Peter Park, analyst at NH Investment & Securities.
