Both Prudential PLC and Eastspring Investment Bhd bought it before 16th March...meaning way much higher price than current.

these machines are used to classify if its virus or bacteria...that way the screening process to identify the potential cause is quickened towards covid-19

the article does not claim the veracity of the above news nor asserts any additional own opinion of the writer...but merely shares facts which are already available in the internet

Demand for HDD Storage Booming: 240 EB Shipped in Q3 2019

November 18, 2019 3:00 PM EST

Demand for storage is stronger than ever as, in addition to growing user-generated data, machine-generated data now requires a formidable amount of storage space and will need even more in the future as the number of connected devices increases. Since the bulk of data continues to be stored on hard drives, it is not surprising that the third quarter was particularly successful for HDD makers, which despite the dent that flash sales are making, still set a record in terms of total shipped capacity

Is Covid-19 a blessing in disguise for consumer electronics sales in UAE?

By Naushad K. Cherrayil 3 days ago

https://www.techradar.com/news/is-covid-19-a-blessing-in-disguise-for-consumer-electronics-sales-in-uae


Retailers report increase in March online sales due to shift in work culture, fuelled by PCs, TVs, gaming consoles and small appliances

The remote work and e-learning initiatives to help slow the spread of the coronavirus are giving rise to an unprecedented surge in online consumer electronics sales in March in the UAE, retailers, vendors and analysts said.

Performance at electronics retailers is hinting at benefits from the shift in work culture despite weak consumer confidence at the start of the year.

Governments, students and enterprises have been advising people to stay safe indoors and that has helped increased sales in PCs, TVs, gaming consoles and small appliances.

Ashish Panjabi, COO at Jacky’s Business Solutions and Board Member at Dubai Computer Group, said that sales of PCs and TVs have been better.

“There were three waves – e-learning, the government sector’s work from home and enterprises’ work from home initiatives. These three waves together happened in March but the biggest issue was supply chain as the surge in demand was not predicted,” he said.

Till the stores were opened, Panjabi said that laptop sales were excellent and later shifted to online when stores were closed.

However, he said that there was a sudden spike in TV sales as more people are watching Netflix by sitting at home.

Jacky’s online PC sales were up by about four times in March when compared to February.

Paul Collins, General Manager for Middle East at Acer, said that March has been good for the company in the UAE.

“We have different demographics in the country, so different people buy PCs in different price segments. Sales at Carrefour, LuLu and Amazon have almost tripled from the shift in work culture in March. More entry-level laptops are depleted and now we are seeing a demand for high-end thin and light laptops,’ he said.

However, he said that Acer is not facing any shortage of supplies and “we are strategically placed and get regular shipments from China and Taiwan. Our factories in China, which are at 80% production currently, are two weeks away from running at 100%. Getting products into the country is not an issue”.

“We do not know how long the impact of Coronavirus outbreak will last. People had moved their buying behaviour from stores to online in the last four weeks,” Collins said.

As people work from home and distant learning is gaining traction, he said that there is a strong uptake for Chromebooks and gaming PCs and it will play into Acer’s hands.

Its research was published in late February, after which the epidemic has expanded rapidly. Many critical components, such as panels, touch sensors and printed circuit boards, come from the badly-hit regions, which will cause a supply crunch heading into Q2 (April-June quarter). As a result, companies are reaching out to the refurbished computers market to meet demand.
