Recently, several media reports, the end of March to early April, Procter & Gamble, Unilever, Li Bai, Nice and other four days of the giants will detergent, laundry detergent, detergent, shower gel, shampoo, etc. Washing class collective price of supplies, according to the city's supermarkets relevant responsible person said, according to the manufacturer informed that the price increases up to 5% to 10%.
Although involved in the day of the giants of the price message and not given a formal official response, but it is clear that many factors and signs that this message has not come from nowhere. Xinhua News Agency reported on March 23 has also proven, Hangzhou supermarkets has confirmed the news, many supermarkets have said Unilever and Procter & Gamble has received notice of price adjustment, the rate of increase of some products up to 10%. If this message is eventually confirmed, it means that people will celebrate the history of daily chemical products, the biggest price increase. Given the current Chinese daily chemical products, industrial concentration is high, Procter & Gamble, Unilever, Li Bai and ...
... the Nice Big Four account for almost 80% of the national market, if the Big Four really "coincidentally" the price , people in the entire price of the game did not have any power of expression and participation, "by price" is forced to accept the fact.
For the four days of the giants choose at this time the reasons for price increases, more speculation is outside the "cost factor." Rising raw material costs to support these industry giants may become the main reason for the collective price. From the first two months of production price index that PPI view, is still at historic highs, and the chain is still in the bullish years, the Middle East crisis with the rising price of crude oil, for cosmetic products, cost increases are not self-evident. In other words, from a cost point of view, Japan-based giant has selected its reasonable prices. If the full market competition, market forces will make the prices have been at a reasonable level.
However, this price is not so much "up" the word itself, but rather a logic of collective action spontaneously: the choice of the four giant is a coincidence after the price adjustment in April, and coincidentally on the rise in the price of the same to maintain a competitive posture equilibrium. This kind of "coincidence" behind, is there a conspiracy between industry giants, or price-fixing cartel. In particular, China's current daily production of chemicals has become a monopoly structure of the four industry giants, giants of each industry in order to maintain their market position and share, even in the face of price pressure in the case, generally not to say prices, to avoid the loss of market share, but this time, the four industry giants choose the same time, the same price increases, they have also been formed in the maintenance of the market sphere of influence, while achieving the purpose of price increases, which logic is a perfect and "monopoly pricing" logical fit.
In a fully competitive environment, price changes are a normal, Ye Hao prices, price cuts worth mentioning, the law always makes the final price of the prices at reasonable levels, market-oriented economy, which is the most wonderful place. In a fully competitive environment, a country's price management department does not care about the price itself, but only to punish illegal price, such as price fixing, collusive price behavior, and price monopoly given to other grueling. For example, the European Union some time ago to give P & G and other severe punishment is a typical antitrust case. China's market economy the price mechanism is not perfect, vicious price competition or price-fixing illegal everywhere, and even became an inevitable stage in the development of the industry. The first alliance with the price of household appliances, because of the lack of anti-trust regulation, has become very popular, after the instant noodles business tacit collusion, which gave the Chinese authorities raised the price of a very serious topic, the market-oriented environment , should be how to manage the price reflects a fair price.
With China's increasing industry concentration, the future of giant Japanese-style "collective price" behavior will gradually increase, for the price management department, the behavior of prices to continue to direct the micro-level price was not a good solution , work should be focused on how to prevent price manipulation and monopoly pricing, and speed up the "price-fixing cartel" of identification and how to build long-term prevention mechanism to find solutions. Price itself is not terrible, terrible price in the face of all kinds of alliance behavior, price management departments have not be proven and powerful means of punishment, to maintain the price of justice.UGG Boots Canada comes with fashion, comfortable, warm, ought to be the hottest new must have items.
