[Leica] Fuji to increase prices

[Nathan Wajsman]

As an economist, I always take such announcements with a grain of salt. And indeed, the press release contains this telling footnote:

“ * Products, timing and percent increase may vary depending on market and regions."

Translation: we would LIKE to increase prices by 30% but will do that only in markets where there is little or no competition so that we can get away with it. 

Cheers,
Nathan
