A report on how China has become the world leader of rare earth metals, essential ingredients used in everything from smart phones and computers to cars and missiles. The U.S. began the cultivation of these materials at Molycorp, Inc.’s mine in Mountain Pass, California after geologists identified rare earth elements in the Mojave Desert, but it was shut down in 1998 due to environmental concerns. Meanwhile, China took over the industry since they have less environmental constraints around mining and lower labor costs, which translates into lower pricing. Molycorp Inc.’s Mountain Pass mine reopened in 2010. Includes interviews with: Constantine Karayannopoulos, chairman of Molycorp, Inc.; Daniel McGroarty, principal of Carmot Strategic Group; and Ed Richardson, president of the U.S. Magnetic Materials Association.

Faced with uncompetitive regulation, the founder of 3P Turbo, Jason Starks, was contemplating setting up a facility to manufacture automobile turbochargers in Brazil. At that time, Brazil was experiencing huge political turmoil, resulting from the Petrobras scandal that involved prominent business and political leaders, and the impeachment of the country's president, Dilma Rousseff. It was also hit with the worst recession in two decades, exacerbated by low commodity prices and the slow-down of the Chinese economy. Jason had engaged with a consultant to gather some revenue and cost projections for this cross-border investment to see if it would create value and make financial sense. More importantly, he needed to access the economic and political risks of Brazil and its automobile industry, and determine if the timing was right to enter the Brazilian market. This case may be used in a core finance course, or in courses such as international finance, international business, or global financial management, in undergraduate, graduate, or executive programs, to familiarize students with the financial and non-financial aspects of cross border investments. This case is best taught after students have been exposed to discounted cash flow valuation and cost of capital, and know the investment analysis tools such as net present value (NPV) and internal rate of return (IRR). This case gives students the opportunity to use spreadsheet for cross-border investment analysis to determine if the investment creates value. It involves students estimating foreign cost of capital, or forecasting future exchange rates to ultimately calculating NPV and/or IRR for the investment. The case also highlights how low interest loan could add value to a cross-border project. Once the base case is built, students can conduct sensitivity, scenario or breakeven analyses to strengthen the quality of their decision. The case is a hands-on way to apply the concepts of cross-border valuation. Besides spreadsheet analysis, the case considers the important factors in cross-border investment decision making, especially in a country with high political and economic risks, amidst a challenging global environment. Depending on the course, the emphasis could be on the financial analysis, the regional business and political environment, or both. The case could also be used to discuss the global automobile industry in general, and Brazilian auto industry in particular.

You give an old shirt or dress to a charity. Then, you forget all about it. But - without knowing it - you have had a huge impact on people you don't know, people throughout the world; and that impact is not all good. By following the strange, colorful, unpredictable voyage of one second hand shirt, Abloni plunges us into the huge worldwide business of second hand clothes. You give an old shirt or dress to a charity. Then, you forget all about it. But - without knowing it - you have had a huge impact on people throughout the world; and that impact is not all good. By following the strange, colorful, unpredictable voyage of one second hand shirt, Abloni plunges us into the huge worldwide business of second hand clothes. Exploring a vast range of locations, and entering into the lives of a colorful cast of characters, Abloni reveals how the second hand clothes business creates a livelihood for a whole chain of wholesalers and retailers and supports charities and recycles waste products in rich countries. At the same time it destroys the textile industries and textile traditions of poor countries, revolutionizing style and fashion in places as far away as a small village in central Togo. Second-hand clothing has led to the birth of a new hybrid African style that creatively mixes western fashions with local textiles and patterns. As it follows a single shirt, Abloni reveals to us an unknown cross section of the economic structure of our contemporary world.
