Plato | Thursday, October 15, 2009 - 07:37 am I have been reading several threads and am surprised at some of the corps people are building in their countries. Just because the docs say to build corps that show strong shortages doesn't mean that all such corps are created equal. In fact, there are some products that show consistent shortages that I do not believe could ever be profitable considering the cost of supplies that go into them and their final product. When choosing corps to build, pick products that are in shortage with high value that also have a strong price cycle such as defensive ammo (mainly the missiles), Oil, FMUs, AQPs, Chemicals, and Electric. Look for others. There are more. Basically, you want to build things that get used up and quickly because these will ALWAYS be in demand. Weapons and installations are almost useless for long term profits. A great place to look for the kind of corps that are profitable is to look at the corps SUCCESSFUL CEOs have. |
