Countertradex.org launches an online industrial/commercial auction network specializing in countertrade and all its forms

Breaking news: Countertradex.org; the world's first and only international online auction network that provides companies with access to tools, information and the solutions you need to engage in all forms of countertrade, quickly and easily resulting in immediate benefits, officially launches in late July. Thousands of the world's largest corporations-including over one hundred Fortune-500 companies-are members of the Countertradex.org auction network. We highly recommend that you sign-up prior to the launch date, simply to have all commodities, goods and services in place for display within your auction module.

Some of the key membership features Countertradex.org offers prove to be exactly what's needed by far more than a hand full of corporations in existence. Exposure on the exclusive Countertradex.org network leads to increased sales volume and market share. In addition to acquiring valuable customers among 144 countries and companies that do not have adequate liquidity, you're able to finance what you need with what you already have. Countertradex.org gives you the ability to make instant trade-matches online in over 20,000 categories-far too many to list here. The live auction features allow you to show your products by uploading digital images...obtain competing bids... feedback capabilities...unlimited auctions... and perhaps best of all... no fee for auction trades.

Countertradex.org has proven to be a truly innovative trading tool, allowing coordination of the needs of your company's sales and purchasing department. As if all this wasn't enough to get the job done. Countertradex.org offers, in my opinion, the world's most comprehensive information source for structuring and executing countertrade deals "Practical Guide to Starting and Completing Countertrade Deals" available in English, French, Russian, Arabic and Italian, to all members or purchased separately.

Be ahead of the curve and visit Countertradex.org, "where supply meets demand" today.

New Worldbid QuickPost service makes posting offers quicker and easier

Worldbid has developed a new service to improve the ease and efficiency with which you can post your trade offers. The system is called QuickPost. Once per week Worldbid will deliver you by email a form for posting your buy and sell offers directly to our trade network.

It's fast and it's easy. Remember that posting more offers will improve trade and result in more closed deals. Using QuickPost is a great way to save time and still take full advantage of the Worldbid trading system.

International Trade News: Asia-Pacific stock markets seem indicative of a market turn around in the region

Stock markets in North America, Western Europe and even Japan are beginning to show exciting rebounds in recent months. Asian markets (excluding Japan) however seem just as impressive if not more so. The major composite tracking companies in more than 14 countries (the MSCI index) rose 14% in the second quarter.

The relatively cheap price of Asia Pacific markets and the recent improvements in stock market growth seem indicative of a potential turn around in the region. Taking into account some remaining sluggishness in the United States and other large markets keep an eye on Asia Pacific to become a high growth region.
