Ablenkung - iPhone App Downloads Dropped In September, iPhone 4S Anticipation Pegged As Culprit Marketing technology company Fiksu’s data for the month of September shows the year’s biggest drop in application downloads, a trend it claims was impacted by mobile consumers holding out for the next Apple iPhone.

The company publishes its Fiksu Indexes monthly to measure fluctuations in competition for rank in the app stores and the cost to acquire loyal users in order to help mobile app marketers benchmark their performance against industry averages. In September, the Fiksu App Store Competitive Index, which measures the average aggregate daily download volume of the Top 200 free U.S. iPhone apps, dropped by 6% from 4.06 million downloads in August to 3.8 million.

Der Eurobond ist noch nicht gestorben EZB-Ratsmitglied Klaas Knot hält die Einführung von Eurobonds zur Lösung der Schuldenkrise langfristig doch für möglich. "Ich sehe Eurobonds als einen guten Weg zur Vermeidung von Liquiditätsproblemen in einem Mitgliedsland und Ansteckungsgefahren", sagte Knot am Freitag.

Dazu zählt zum Beispiel die EU-Kommission, aber auch Eurogruppenchef Jean-Claude Juncker. Eurobonds sind Anleihen, die gemeinsam von den Staaten der Eurozone ausgegeben werden. Es gibt sie bisher nicht. Das derzeitige umstrittene Bond-Ankauf-Programm der Europäischen Zentralbank (EZB) zur Bekämpfung der Schuldenkrise stelle eine Gefahr für die Haushaltsdisziplin in der Eurozone dar, fügte der niederländische Notenbankchef hinzu.
