My take home message is:
The age of trading company is over, because retailers are directly sourcing from the manufacturers. The only way for a small guy to profit from global trade is to design a new product, find someone to manufacture it in Asia, find someone to buy it in US, and profit from the IP.
The transition from tech line to business line can be done through understanding the business behind all the tech projects. (this is in synch with what my mentor told me: every company is in need of a tech person that understands the business)
The risk of being in the business line is if the business sector doesn't do well, the whole org will be slashed. Although that probably applies to the tech guy, too.
