Infonetics Research: Telecom Growth Rate Still Outpacing GDP GrowthCAMPBELL, Calif. --(Business Wire)-- Market research firm Infonetics Research released excerpts from its December 2012 Fundamental Telecom and Datacom Market Drivers report, which analyzes global and regional market trends and conditions. ANALYST NOTE "As we're ending 2012, Europe's crisis remains uncontained and is now spreading to Germany. The potential of shaking business confidence everywhere in the world has risen to new heights, and the IMF lowered its growth forecast and is warning of recession risks due to downward revision of global GDP, which now stands at 3.3%. Economic readings are worrisome everywhere but the U.S., but so far the impact on global telecom and enterprise remains tame, and we're forecasting capex to grow nearly 4% in 2012 over 2011," notes Stéphane Téral, principal analyst for mobile infrastructure and carrier economics at Infonetics Research. Téral adds: "With the announcement of AT&T's (News - Alert) and Deutsche Telekom's multi-billion dollar investment plans, next year's capex outlay looks brighter."
