BRUSSELS (Reuters) -European Union countries broadly agree they need to change EU laws to allow slower debt reduction, move away from complex calculated indicators and come up with an EU fiscal framework that is actually respected, senior euro zone officials said. The EU's fiscal rules, called the Stability and Growth Pact, are to stop governments borrowing too much to safeguard the value of the euro. The rules are now under review because the COVID-19 pandemic boosted EU public debt so much that existing laws can no longer apply, while fighting climate change requires enormous investment over decades that many argue should be reflected in EU laws.
One observers said traders may be better off trading bitcoin volatility than taking directional bets.
Euro zone finance ministers will start a discussion on Monday on how to change the often-broken EU fiscal rules so that governments actually observe them, a euro zone official said. The European Union's Stability and Growth Pact is meant to stop governments borrowing too much in order to safeguard the value of the euro common currency. To appease financial markets as the debt crisis peaked, euro zone countries agreed in 2011 to make financial sanctions for running excessive deficits and debt more automatic and less subject to political discretion.

The U.S. dollar weakened in early European trade Friday, heading for its worst week in more than a year as traders now consider Federal Reserve interest rates hikes this year as being fully priced in. This dollar selloff has come in a week that has seen annual U.S. consumer inflation climb to levels not seen since the early 1980s and several Fed officials talk about the need for the central bank to hike interest rates and reduce its balance sheet to combat inflation. The latest policy maker to suggest prompt Fed action was Governor Lael Brainard, who said during her confirmation hearing before the Senate Banking Committee, that “we do have a powerful tool and we are going to use it to bring inflation down over time.”

The official, who asked not to be named, said the better outcome was testament to the effectiveness of the 2.3 trillion euros ($2.64 trillion) of national liquidity support measures taken to keep companies from collapsing under repeated government-imposed pandemic lockdowns and the resilience of the economy. "There was concern about a wave of insolvencies," said the official, involved in the preparation of the monthly meeting of euro zone finance ministers.

The direction of the EUR/USD on Thursday is likely to be determined trader reaction to 1.1439.
This growth stock has taken a beating in recent months.
An upward revision to inflation projections offset the effect of downward revisions to GDP numbers. Much will now depend on the stats and central bank chatter.
December's monthly U.S. inflation figures, published on Wednesday, were a fraction higher than forecast and the increase in year-on-year consumer price inflation was as expected at 7% - its biggest jump since June 1982. "The scale of the dollar sell-off must surely be partially indicative of positioning," MUFG analyst Derek Halpenny wrote in a research note.
EUR/USD is trying to gain additional upside momentum ahead of the release of Producer Prices data from U.S.
The U.S. dollar edged lower in early European trade Thursday, adding to the previous session’s sharp losses after the release of the latest inflation data failed to encourage any further bets on aggressive Federal Reserve policy tightening. Wednesday’s U.S. data showed that the headline consumer price index grew 7% year-on-year and the month-on-month figure rose 0.5%. Stripping out the volatile energy and food sectors, the core consumer price index grew 0.6% month-on-month and 5.5% year-on-year in December.
The EUR and the USD are back in focus today. Following the FED’s shift in policy, will the ECB Economic Bulletin and member chatter suggest a similar shift?
Sterling rose to new highs against the dollar while it was almost unchanged versus the euro, with investors focused on potential rate increases from the Bank of England. The pound has strengthened recently as investors ramped up expectations of further rate rises, while Britain's focus on rolling out booster vaccinations rather than returning to coronavirus lockdown measures boosted risk sentiment. Sterling did not appear to be affected political problems facing Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who apologised in parliament for attending a garden drinks gathering at his official residence during a lockdown in May 2020.
The Euro has been whispering as of late that it wants to go higher, with slightly higher lows. However, there has been a barrier just below the 1.14 level. During the day on Wednesday, we have pierced that level and it looks like we are ready to go higher.

Retailers shuttering stores around the country are sending up flares for help, amid a coronavirus pandemic where public health officials are asking people to stay home to prevent mass hospitalizations and widespread toll.
The Retail Industry Leaders Association and the National Retail Federation, trade groups representing retailers, submitted pleas Wednesday to the Trump administration and Congressional leaders, asking for access to financing, as well as some relief from obligations including rent and taxes.
RILA asked that central bank regulators facilitate financing and ensure that retailers continue to have access to lines of credit, while the NRF called for occupancy relief measures including a pause on mandatory defaults and foreclosures, and guidance on rent abatement. They also asked for tax relief, supporting the administration’s delay on tax payments, and asked for companies to be able to use their net operating losses to limit their tax exposure.
In the past week, dozens of retailers and brands have announced temporary store closures, including Gap Inc., H&M, Macy’s and Kohl’s as well as luxury names LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton, Chanel and Kering, which owns designer brands including Gucci and Balenciaga. Simon Property Group, the nation’s largest mall operator, said Wednesday that it was closing all its malls until March 29.
“Some of my clients have made a blanket decision to close all their stores nationwide, others have decided that they’ll leave stores open in jurisdictions where they haven’t been ordered to close them down,” said Stephanie Sheridan, a partner at Steptoe & Johnson LLP who advises retailers on regulatory issues and litigation. “But that’s changing on a day-to-day basis, so more and more of them will close.”
Retail attorneys say anecdotally that their clients, including large national retailers, are seeing sharp drops in foot traffic, leading to steep sales drops that go far beyond the usual decline during times of poor performance under normal circumstances.
Under these types of catastrophic circumstances, retailers are drawing down on their revolving lines of credit, which highlights the NRF’s push for the government to enable more access to credit, attorneys said.
“Typically what you see is that retailers will have lines of credit with lenders and usually, given the financial stability of a company, lenders provide flexibility within those lines of credit,” said Erika Morabito, a partner at Foley & Lardner LLP who advises retailers on bankruptcy issues.
“Now, when they’re drawing down, there could be a trigger of a covenant default, within their underlying loan documents,” she said, in light of retailers’ sinking revenues.
The store closures come amid calls by public health officials for social distancing and self-isolation as the number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 has surpassed 240,000, according to the Johns Hopkins University tally. A number of counties, including in Northern California, have imposed orders for people to stay at home except for “essential activities.”
The Trump administration has reacted so far by pushing Congress for an $850 billion aid package, while the Federal Reserve has slashed its benchmark interest rate. Some local lawmakers are also trying to address the economic fallout, with New York City Council Speaker Corey Johnson on Thursday proposing a $12 billion relief plan that would include a temporary universal basic income, and a refund of business taxes, among other things.
Relief from rent obligations will also be crucial as sales drop or halt altogether, attorneys said.
The general yardstick for retailers is to keep their rent in the range of 9 to 13 percent of gross sales, but as sales plummet, rent obligations and other operations expenses expand in proportion, toppling what for many retailers may be a delicate financial balance, said Martin Orlick, a partner at Jeffer Mangels Butler & Mitchell LLP who advises shopping mall operators and retailers on real estate issues, among other things.
“It’s an impossible situation,” he said. “There has to be some moratorium for both landlords who are entitled to be paid, and tenants claiming they shouldn’t have to pay because of circumstances of force majeure, for example,” he said. “There has to be a balance.”

Whether you’re an Expat living in Thailand or a Tourist just passing through, Thai Visas are always a concern. In recent years, Tourists from many countries around the globe have had to pay around 1,000 baht to get a single-entry 30 day visa, in order to visit the Land of Smiles. Around 30 to 40 countries worldwide are exempt from these visa charges but time limitations for how long visitors can stay in Thailand are still imposed for travelers receiving free Visas upon arrival.
All this is about to change however, as new Visa options will soon be available to Tourists. In an effort to boost Tourism in the Country, as well as improve the Nation’s economy, a new proposal has been approved whereby multiple-entry Visas to all visitors, regardless of their country of origin, will be made available upon arrival.
Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha has approved this new proposal and according to Tourism Minister Kobharn Wattanavrangkul, the new Visa option will become available within 60 days. The cost of the new visa will be 5,000 baht and it will enable tourists to stay in the Country for a six month period and will also grant them the chance to leave and re-enter the country more than once during that time period.
Presently, multiple entry tourist visas are available at Thai embassies in other Countries, but with this new Visa option, things are going to be made a lot easier for tourists wishing to stay for longer periods of time, as well as for ex-pats who are in the unfortunate position of having to do border-crossing Visa runs.

The winners and losers from the stock market's wave of new firms: Where did investors rack up 150% on soaring shares - and lose 77% in a slump?
Although the UK stock market's performance this year has been modest – up some nine per cent – it hasn't stopped retail investors pouring money into equities and investment funds.
Derisory savings rates and rising inflation have persuaded many investors that they are much better off holding assets that have a chance of generating returns in excess of inflation – even if those returns are not guaranteed.
The somewhat subdued stock market has also not stood in the way of companies deciding that it is the right time to take their businesses public and list them on the London Stock Exchange, often crystallising fortunes for founders and executives.
So far this year, nearly 100 businesses – from delivery company Deliveroo through to DNA sequencing company Oxford Nanopore – have gone public, issuing shares via an initial public offering (IPO) that can then be traded in London.

It's the biggest number of floats since 2014.
Good news? Yes, but there are concerns that some (not all) companies are coming to the market at inflated prices, leaving early investors disappointed as the shares subsequently fall in price.
Dan Lane, senior analyst at share dealing company Freetrade, says the IPO market has become 'Jekyll and Hyde' in nature – 'with lower quality IPOs such as Deliveroo endangering the overall quality of the stock market'.
'There is a danger that firms are rushing to capitalise on a flood of lockdown money,' he warns.
Mike Coombes works for PrimaryBid which helps companies make their IPOs as private investor friendly as possible.
PrimaryBid believes private investors should be able to buy shares in all IPOs at the listing price – and not have to wait until dealings in the shares commence before buying.
It's a view The Mail on Sunday supports through our Fair Play For Small Investors campaign.
While acknowledging that some IPOs this year have proved disappointing in terms of shareholder returns, he argues that a robust new share issue market should be welcomed.
'More companies coming to our public market is great news for investors,' he says. 'Equities are liquid, transparent and well-regulated. Private investors can trade with ease, either buying shares in companies – old and new – and investment trusts.'
Although he accepts that IPOs carry a high risk-reward ratio because investors are stepping into the dark, the performance numbers are encouraging overall.
PrimaryBid has examined the share price returns of 72 IPOs that have been made via the London Stock Exchange this year – main market or the Alternative Investment Market (AIM).
All were at least £10million in size – smaller ones have been ignored as have secondary listings (where a company already has a stock market listing elsewhere in the world).
The returns are based on the difference between the listing price and the closing share price last Thursday.
The biggest 'winners' and 'losers' are shown in the table below – with a number of familiar names among them.
Winners include FTSE100 cyber security company Darktrace (share price up 74 per cent) and FTSE250 listed Auction Technology, an online auctioneer (up 150 per cent).
Losers include furniture maker Made.com (down 31 per cent) and food delivery company Deliveroo (down 33 per cent).
Across the 72 listings, PrimaryBid says the average return is 8.2 per cent, slightly worse than the return from the FTSE All Share (9.1 per cent) this year.
'Yes, given the range in performance, the figures show the high risk-reward nature of IPOs,' adds Coombes. 'But I would argue that they are less risky than popular assets such as cryptocurrencies which are able to advertise their wares with almost complete impunity.'
Russ Mould is investment director at wealth manager AJ Bell. He says it is good that more firms are looking to access capital on the London Stock Exchange.
But, like Freetrade's Lane, he says investors must not get caught up in the hype that often surrounds new share listings and end up overpaying for their shares.
He says: 'A new share issue should be analysed and researched in exactly the same way as a company whose shares already trade on the market.
'First, an investor must ensure a new share passes four hurdles: it fits their overall investment strategy and time horizon while meeting their target investment returns and appetite for risk.'
If a share doesn't clear all four hurdles, Mould says an investor should 'move on and fight any fear of missing out'.
If it does clear them, an investor must then do some homework on the company looking at its business model and potential to grow.
Adds Mould: 'If they like what they see, and feel the stock is sensibly priced, then the new shares may be worth buying.'
WHY SMALL INVESTORS DESERVE A SLICE TOO
What experts unanimously agree on with regard to new share issues is that private investors should be allowed to buy shares on the same terms as big City institutions.
This does not happen at the moment and it's why The Mail on Sunday is campaigning for 'Fair Play For Small Investors'.
Currently, when most companies list shares on the London Stock Exchange, they offer them exclusively to institutional investors at an agreed price.
As a result, private investors can only get a slice of the action once dealings in the shares commence.
Often, it means they have to pay more for their shares because many new issues start trading at a hefty premium.
PrimaryBid believes a slice of all new share issues should be made available to private investors. It says retail investors are often treated as 'second-class citizens'.
Lee Wild, head of equity strategy at wealth manager Interactive Investor, agrees.
He says: 'Retail investors have been stranded in the IPO wilderness for too long, often left to pick up the scraps once City institutions have got the cream.
'But things are changing, and retail investors should expect to participate on equal terms as pressure increases on companies and their advisers to add a retail element to every stock market listing.'

- Even Flagship phones from Samsung and Sony occasionally missed patches
GOOGLE HAS LONG struggled with how best to get dozens of Android smartphone manufacturers—and hundreds of carriers—to regularly push out security-focused software updates. But when one German security firm looked under the hood of hundreds of Android phones, it found a troubling new wrinkle: Not only do many Android phone vendors fail to make patches available to their users, or delay their release for months; they sometimes also tell users their phone’s firmware is fully up to date, even while they’ve secretly skipped patches.
On Friday at the Hack in the Box security conference in Amsterdam, researchers Karsten Nohl and Jakob Lell of the firm Security Research Labs plan to present the results of two years of reverse-engineering hundreds of Android phones’ operating system code, painstakingly checking if each device actually contained the security patches indicated in its settings. They found what they call a “patch gap”: In many cases, certain vendors’ phones would tell users that they had all of Android’s security patches up to a certain date, while in reality missing as many as a dozen patches from that period—leaving phones vulnerable to a broad collection of known hacking techniques.
“We find that there’s a gap between patching claims and the actual patches installed on a device. It’s small for some devices and pretty significant for others,” says Nohl, a well-known security researcher and SRL’s founder. In the worst cases, Nohl says, Android phone manufacturers intentionally misrepresented when the device had last been patched. “Sometimes these guys just change the date without installing any patches. Probably for marketing reasons, they just set the patch level to almost an arbitrary date, whatever looks best.”
The Patch Gap
SRL tested the firmware of 1,200 phones, from more than a dozen phone manufacturers, for every Android patch released in 2017. The devices were made by Google itself as well as major Android phone makers like Samsung, Motorola, and HTC, and lesser-known Chinese-owned companies like ZTE and TCL. Their testing found that other than Google’s own flagship phones like the Pixel and Pixel 2, even top-tier phone vendors sometimes claimed to have patches installed that they actually lacked. And the lower-tier collection of manufacturers had a far messier record.
The missed patches aren’t just an isolated incident, either. According to Wired, SRL tested firmware from 1,200 phones from companies like Google, Samsung, HTC, Motorola, ZTE, and TCL for every Android patch released last year. They found that even major flagships from Samsung and Sony occasionally missed a patch.
Obviously, this is bad. Whether it’s intentional or not, customers aren’t just being left vulnerable to hacks by not having the latest security updates. They’re also being lulled into a false sense of security by thinking that they are fully protected, which could lead to far more disastrous results down the line. To help with that, SRL is releasing a tool called SnoopSnitch on the Play Store that can analyze your phone’s firmware for installed or missing Android security patches to see if you’re really safe, but it really shouldn’t have had to come to this in the first place.
To be clear, not all phone manufacturers are equal when it comes to missing security patches. On average, phones from Google, Samsung, and Sony only tended to miss the occasional patch. But companies like ZTE and TCL performed far worse, with devices that claimed to have installed an average of four or more security patches than they actually did.
For Google’s part, the company commented to Wired, “We’ve launched investigations into each instance and each OEM to bring their certified devices into compliance,” and said it would be further investigating the issue. Google also tried to explain some of SRL’s findings with manufacturers skipping patches for features that they may have just removed entirely from the device or that some of the phones lacked Google’s official Android security certification in the first place. But it’s clear there’s still more work to be done.
After all, if Android device manufacturers can’t manage to update their phones, the least they could do is be honest about that fact.

Green Thumb Robot can give you a bad back, helps weed gardens although
The suit weighs 55lb, that’s good enough as 25 bags of sugar and has been invented by the Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology. Although the makers of this robot insist that ‘suit’ carries its own weight and places a minimum load on the operator, the look of it describes something else! The thing uses eight motors and 16 sensors and what it does is pull out is weeds and pick oranges! Perpetrated as an aid to aging farmers who have leg muscles and joint problems, the robot promises to haul them up effortlessly. Expected to cost between £3,500 ($5000) and £7,000 ($10,000), the design costs plenty of an ordinary farmer!
‘Human robotic technology is being applied to various industries but it has great potential in the agricultural industry, in which people have to bear a heavy burden,’ Professor Shigeki Toyama said. ‘That’s especially obvious in Japan, where the industry is rapidly ageing and its population is shrinking,’ he said.

This week at the CTIA trade show, HTC CEO Peter Chou offered a few sound bites worth passing on. Among them, he calls the Nexus One a success, and says that his company will bring a Windows Phone 7 device to market by the end of the year.
This week at the CTIA trade show, HTC CEO Peter Chou offered a few sound bites worth passing on. Among them, he calls the Nexus One a success, and says that his company will bring a Windows Phone 7 device to market by the end of the year.Despite the initial launch and what appears to be tepid consumer reaction to the HTC-made Nexus One Android phone, HTC CEO Peter Chou believes the device is doing well. In an interview with Forbes, he recently said, "[Google's] goal with the Nexus One was to really show how good Android can be. In that regard, I think it has been an achievement. Considering Google didn't do [standard] retail or marketing for it, the Nexus One is doing pretty well."
No one knows exactly how many Nexus Ones have been sold, but estimates place the number at about 150,000. Competing devices such as the Motorola Droid have sold well over one million units, but that device had a $100 million marketing plan behind it.
Since neither Google nor HTC has revealed what its forecast sales numbers would be for the Nexus One, we can only take them at the word when they call it a success. In terms of overall market penetration, though, 150,000 pales in comparison to the millions of iPhones, Droids and other smartphones being sold.
In the same interview, Chou talked up Microsoft's Windows Phone 7 Series. It seems that HTC is very excited about the possibilities with WinPho7. Chou said, "They're putting in tremendous effort to make Windows Phone 7 very appealing and competitive." Chou expects that HTC will deliver a Windows Phone 7 Series device to the market by the end of the year. That's in line with when Microsoft predicted the platform would become available to consumers.

The raw commodity sector is still in an overall slump, which has helped to produce worldwide deflationary worries. However, just the past few trading sessions there are “green shoots” showing in a few markets that could be very early clues the raw commodity sector “bust” is coming to an end. Sugar, coffee and silver prices have seen good price rallies just recently, to suggest those individual markets have bottomed out. The sideways price action in other commodity futures markets, such as sector leader crude oil, suggests the bears in those markets have become exhausted and price bottoms could also be in place.

Ceasar Guenette told MyStarCollectorCar he has a love-hate relationship with his 1962 Ford Sunliner convertible.
Ceasar told MyStarCollectorCar his ’62 Ford was originally a brown car, but that was a long time (and three owners) ago — and things have changed in that department.
The car was painted white by its second owner, according to Ceasar, but the third owner added a rainbow metal flake pearl to the paint job, along with ghost flames during the color makeover.
Ceasar became its fourth owner after it appeared on an online buy/sell site and did not sell for many months. The cool convertible became an opportunity for Ceasar when he decided to rescue the ’62 Ford from automotive limbo when it was stuck between owners.
The natural inclination for most car guys is to improve the overall status of their new purchases and Ceasar was eager to improve the Sunliner. Fortunately, he had a great deal of the heavy lifting already done by the car’s former owners who had already put plenty of upgrades into the car.
Perhaps the biggest improvement took place under the hood because Ceasar’s ‘vert sports a 1972 big block Lincoln engine that has been bored out to a massive 468 cubic inches after a $23,000 investment by one of the previous owners. The giant Blue Oval powerplant is hooked up to a C-6 automatic transmission that has a floor-mounted shifter.
Ceasar took his mechanic buddy out for a test flight in the upgraded Ford drop top and recalled this reaction from the man; ”I’ve driven lots of crazy s###-but this thing is nuts”. Ceasar gave a gentler description when he said the car “lights it up pretty good”.
Ceasar realized his Ford was fast enough to warrant a serious upgrade to its steering so he upgraded to a better rack and pinion system because the Mustang II system was simply not good enough, in his opinion.
The car also has a dual master front disc/rear drum brake system that “stops good”, in Ceasar’s words.
Ceasar added the car runs down the road “pretty solid”, but he installed Dodge 4×4 shock absorbers to stiffen the rear end of the convertible and noted the Ford Sunliner has a front sway bar to cut down the rock and roll in his 58-year-old car.
The right balance between original and custom is important to Ceasar, particularly as it pertains to bling because he wants to find rear 1962 Sunliner badges for his convertible. Currently the car has 1961 badges and Ceasar is not comfortable with them on the ‘62 Ford’s rear quarters.
Ceasar’s wants to put his own stamp on his 1962 Ford Sunliner convertible but his goal is not a show car because he wants to “drive it”, in his words.
Spoken like a true car guy.

Patriots owner Robert Kraft, in comments given to reporters who followed him to Israel, spoke optimistically about the chances that a new labor deal will be done this week.
Kraft said he “personally believe[s] it’s possible” to work out a new agreement, according to CSNNE.com.
Kraft is in Israel on a trade mission with Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick. “If necessary, I might have to leave early,” Kraft said, adding that a new labor deal is “a high priority.”
“We’re doing everything we can to get a deal consummated,” Kraft said.
“[The] good news is, it’s always good to be talking when you have differences of opinion,” Kraft added. “It’s the only way you have a chance [to reach an agreement]. So we’re talking, and I know from ownership’s side that we feel there’s a deal to be made and we’d very much like to do it.”
We’ll know more in four days whether the deal is made.

"2020 has been a challenging year to sell white roses. For the reds, however, it probably was the best year ever," says Arie van den Berg of Berg RoseS, who grows roses in the Netherlands, Kenya and China. In the Netherlands, the year has been the most challenging as half of their 16ha greenhouse was planted with white roses (Avalance). For this reason, they decided it was the right time to renew their assortment and replace some of the old crops with new crops. "We now have a very strong assortment and are ready for 2021".
Arie van den Berg in the greenhouse in the Netherlands.
Avalanche for weddings
The roses that are grown in their greenhouse in the Netherlands are shipped to florists all over Europe and the UK. However, 2020 has been challenging and mainly due to the fact that half of their greenhouse acreage was planted with white rose Avalanche. According to Arie, their Avalanche is often used for weddings. However, as there were hardly any large weddings taking place in 2020, the demand dropped significantly. "Last year, we've significantly felt the impact in March, April and December."
Good year for reds
2020, however, was a good year for the other colors and particularly the reds. "The amounts that came out of South America and Africa were fluctuating and had a lot of influence on the price. Also the costs of the air freight increased significantly and had, in turn, an influence on the amounts."
The greenhouse in Kenya (Naivasha)
Berg RoseS in Kenya
Also at their farm in Kenya Berg RoseS had to deal with the increased air freight prices. "They are still 20% higher compared to the prices pre-lockdown." However, all in all, they have had an OK year as they only ship their roses to supermarkets. "They continued ordering flowers."
Greenhouse in China (Kunming)
Berg RoseS in China
Also in China, the year ended well for Berg RoseS. "We have had very challenging times till May 1st but afterwards, everything picked up again and we've sold as forecasted. Now, however, we need to see how things will move on, regarding the current development of COVID-19 in the country. "
Crop rotation at the Dutch greenhouse
Even though 2020 has been a challenging year for Berg RoseS in the Netherlands, they did not sit still. "We've decided to replace the old plants with new plants and we've upgraded our assortment. Currently, one third of the greenhouse exists of Avalance, 15% of red and the rest of other colors. With this strong assortment, we have high hopes for 2021."
UK mother's Day, most important day
The UK is an important market for this Dutch grower and UK Mother's Day (this year it falls on March 14) is therefore one of their most important holidays. And when talking about the UK, how has Brexit changed shipping to the UK? "For us nothing changed", he says. "It entails more paperwork, but it is at the end of our clients, for us, everything is still the same."

Rather than fear them, Adland should embrace ad blocking technology says Mike Hill and Dan Hitchcock in this combined opinion piece. Hill and Hitchcock – both from Sydney digital agency Holler – argue that (bad) banner ads have become so annoying that the technology’s inevitable.
B&T’s article last week reported that global usage of ad-blockers is set to climb over the 200 million mark.
According to a study from Adobe and Software Company Page Fair, this figure represents nearly $40 billion in lost revenue.That’s a very large drop in the advertising ocean. Enough to push Adland into a state of mild hysteria.
In Australia there are almost 4 million ad-blocker users, a figure that surpasses the number of Twitter users in the country. These numbers are inevitably set to surge with confirmation that Apple’s IOS 9 will allow ad-blocking apps on its devices.
So are we going to dust off our pitchforks and wage war against those evil ad-blockers, who have the audacity to assist those who don’t want their browsing experience routinely invaded by pop-up ads?
We all knew this day would come. Most of us are surprised it didn’t come sooner.
Our own industry has actually created ad blockers in the past—a nice effort by D&AD, which replaced rubbish ads with award-winning ones (oh the irony of blocking our own ads just to watch someone else’s).
Although we’re not quite doing cartwheels across the office at the news of banner ad’s impending demise, we can all probably admit that this is a step in the right direction for digital advertising.
Why? Because banner ads are annoying. We know it, and so does everyone else.
Consumers have grown increasingly tired of being subjected to a deluge of random or, even worse, targeted shitty ads that invade their screens and generally impinge on their browsing experience.
Ad blockers are the rational response, a silent protest by those who want to make their own choices about the information that they view online.
At recent innovation festival US Vlogger Casey Neistat neatly summed up the prevailing sentiment, “I f**king hate ads.”
It’s clear need to come up with a new way to tell stories and sell products that doesn’t annoy people. Just like we have always tried to do.
Neistat himself makes ads (under the guise of native content). His recent video for Nike, “Make It Count,” has received over 14 million views. He doesn’t really hate ads…he just hates the bad ones.
We in advertising are seemingly faced with two options: to prolong the life of banner ads or to acknowledge their time has come. Some in the industry will opt to play a game of ad-blocking cat and mouse, which will eventually prove an impossible task.
The second and most plausible option is that digital advertisers will be forced to produce better, more thought-provoking content in a different channel.
Digital publishers will move away from the monotonous age of the banner ad, and throw their energy and resources into something else.
Interestingly, the real problem here will be for Neistat and his fellow content creators. The very people who “f**king hate [bad] ads” are often supported by them, heavily reliant on impressions from pop-up banner ads to generate revenue from their blog, vlog or whatever else they’ve got going on.
The gap in the digital ecosystem left by banner ads can’t and won’t be filled by open briefs from Nike. Without banner ads, some content creators will go hungry and others will starve. Not Neistat, but someone.
Meanwhile, advertising will do what it always has: adapt and move to greener pastures…and create better experiences in the process. At least that’s what we intend to do.
