<a target="_blank">Asia continues to be a key contributor to the watch market globally, accounting for 46% of the world’s watch sales</a>. However, top watch and luxury goods market Hong Kong remains unstable in its position in the global watch industry. According to the Federation of the Swiss Watch Industry, Swiss watch exports to Hong Kong continue to be in decline. In July 2016, the US displaced Hong Kong as the world’s top market of Swiss Watches, as effects of the factors plaguing Hong Kong’s watch industry are starting to come into play. Japan, another mature watch and luxury goods market in Asia Pacific aside from Hong Kong, is seeing an improvement with 12% growth from January to July 2016 as the government continues its effort to stimulate the country’s economic expansion.

Emerging markets, following a slowdown in traditional toy sales due to macroeconomic volatility, are expected to recover through 2020 and once again drive traditional toys and games growth globally. However, emerging market growth will differ based on the income and demographic trends of emerging countries, from growth markets like China that will have positive income and child demographic trends, to stalled markets like Brazil that face negative trends. While the macro environment in many emerging markets could remain unstable in the short to medium term, research detailed in the new report “<a target="_blank">The Shifting Dynamics of Traditional Toys in Emerging Markets</a>” points to improving prospects in India, Sub-Saharan Africa, Russia and China in 2020-2030, as well as possible long term issues in the Brazilian market.

"Jugaad" is the popular Indian word for "Hustle", as the self-proclaimed hustling CEO Travis Kalanick who has been pushing legal boundaries for Uber across cities, learnt during one of his early India visits. He was exhorting Indians to be hustlers during a guest lecture to aspiring tech entrepreneurs.  And India definitely seems to have lived up to its reputation of Jugaad/Hustlers once again after demonetization, as more than half of the outstanding High-Value notes (Rs8trn out of Rs15.3trn)…

We have been incessantly cautioning for a corrective phase in our stock markets mainly due to excessive valuations based of unrealistic growth expectations. While we expected a correction, it came from completely unexpected quarters. The beneficiaries from the favorable macro tidings (monsoons, pay commission) in what was supposed to be a very strong 2HFY17 have suffered a setback post-demonetization. This prompts us to re-evaluate our sector and market cap preferences in this edition of the Ampersand newsletter.

Dynamic population growth over the historic period has made India one of the most prospective markets for potential growth in toys and games globally. However, the country’s low-income level has kept spending on discretionary categories like toys and games beyond the reach of large swaths of population. Still India’s middle class continues to grow, and the general population is becoming increasingly urban. The child population is also growing, yet it’s growing slower than the number of households leading to lower dependency ratios. This combination of factors is expected to yield a very favourable environment for toys and games spending in 2020-2025.
