2006-05-19 16:20 CEST Ericsson and Modern Times Group bring the World Championship ice-hockey final to 3G users On May 21, the ice-hockey final of the World Championship takes place in Riga, Latvia, and thanks to collaboration between Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERICY) and media company Modern Times Group (MTG), 3G users in both Sweden and Estonia can follow the match on their mobile phones. People who subscribe to the ice-hockey service will be able to see the goals shortly after they have been scored. They will also have access to specially-edited hockey news, ring tones and national anthems. The service has been available since the start of the World Championship on May 5. Veiko Sepp, CEO of Ericsson in Estonia, says they were able to quickly introduce the service due to the partners and technical platforms that were already in place. "Ten days after the agreement was signed with MTG, the service was launched - just in time for the World Championship," he says. "By using the hosted TV and video service and payment platform, IPX, MTG has been able to easily adapt their sport video content for 3G networks and get paid for this content without having to do any of the technical integration themselves. For the service in Sweden we have also cooperated with the Ericsson Mobility World partner Globalmouth, whose expertise in the addressing of the hockey community has been very valuable," he adds. In Sweden you simply sms HOCKEY to 72401 and you can be in the game. This is not the first time Ericsson has used its technology in a sports event. The company has huge experience from the Volvo Ocean Race, which it will continue to cover until mid-June, and is hosting platforms for other operators and media companies as well. "We can do fast launches for media companies and our expertise in the mobile arena makes it easy for them to adapt their content for mobile networks," says Sepp. Henrik Sundewall, COO of MTG New Media AB underlines, that the mobile service for the World Championship has been launched with a great speed and enthusiasm by Ericsson and MTG. "It has been given us a lot of experience to be used in the future media events, where the innovative mobile services will add new experiences to the MTG customers," he says. Ericsson is shaping the future of Mobile and Broadband Internet communications through its continuous technology leadership. Providing innovative solutions in more than 140 countries, Ericsson is helping to create the most powerful communication companies in the world.

Alternative Index Weighting Strategies on the Swedish Stock Market
Alternative Index Weighting Strategies on the Swedish Stock Market William Appelgren Johanna Trost [email protected] [email protected] Stockholm School of Economics Department of Finance Spring 2014 Tutor: Michael Halling Abstract The Market-Capitalization index reweighting has since long had the role as the conventional tool for passive investments through its simplicity and CAPM framework conformance. Nowadays, alternative index reweightings are getting increased traction in the light of market-capitalization criticism and suggested risk-return improvements and possibilities of desired characteristics. This study sets to examine four alternative index reweightings; the Minimum Variance, the Equal Weights, the Equal Risk Contribution and the Risk-Weighted Alpha reweighting methods, as well as compare these indices to the benchmark Market-Capitalization weighted index over a number of quantitative measures. The stock universe chosen is the OMXS30 constituents of the NASDAQ OMX Stockholm Stock Exchange and the study also discusses the feasibility of introducing the alternative methods to the exchange. The study shows that all computed alternative methods beat the benchmark in terms of risk-adjusted return, as well as return in absolute measures. Index weight characteristics over time, especially as an effect of short-selling constraints, do however impact the weightings significantly and with regards to feasibility do not all alternative indices show on definite prevalence over the Market-Capitalization index for the examined data set and time period. Possible improvements of the data collection, method decisions and tools for analysis are also discussed as a reference for further studies. The findings of the study conclude in not being able to reject the proposal of an alternative index launch on the Swedish stock market.

5G Wireless Infrastructure Semiconductor Analysis
5G WIRELESS INFRASTRUCTURE SEMICONDUCTOR ANALYSIS SIA CONFIDENTIAL | 5G INFRASTRUCTURE ANALYSIS | 1 2 | 5G INFRASTRUCTURE ANALYSIS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY On behalf of SIA, a wireless market intelligence firm has analyzed all of the semiconductor function product families within the key elements of a 5G radio access network (RAN)- baseband unit (BBU) and active antenna unit (AAU)/remote radio unit (RRU) systems for 5G base stations along with the current domestic United States and foreign/international semiconductor suppliers. Our conclusion is that despite the United States maintaining overall market-share leadership in semiconductors with a 45% share of the global market, substitutes for U.S. components exist for nearly every semiconductor product family required to build a complete RAN infrastructure. In fact, our analysis indicates that of the more than fifty critical semiconductor elements necessary to design, manufacture, and sell a competitive 5G RAN network1, only 3 components could face supply constraints outside the United States in the event of an export restriction. For each of those three components, we have further concluded that alternatives are currently being deployed or under active development, especially within China by Huawei’s semiconductor design arm, HiSilicon. 8 | 5G INFRASTRUCTURE ANALYSIS | SIA CONFIDENTIAL OUR CONCLUSION FOR THE BASEBAND UNIT SYSTEM FOR A 5G BASE STATION IS THAT THE TWO KEY SEMICONDUCTOR PRODUCT FAMILIES THAT MAY PRESENT SUPPLY ISSUES OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES ARE: • Commercial off-the-shelf Field
