Emerging Markets Performance in 2008 and Beyond

I come from an emerging market. My country's trade is made 70-80% with European Union.
Foreign investment and trade plays a huge role to GDP growth in the region. No money, no honey so to speak.
So if the consume in UE drops 2% for example, in my country exports drop 4-6%. That's why the risk and correlation is such high.

There's no secret. Cheers.

Well. If you had like 10 mil. dollars and all you want is to keep your wealth and have low exposure to risk I guess you could easily use a mix of those.
But since it's not really anyone case in here, I'll have to pass. Thank you.

Now can you tell me how to reach 10 mil. dollars so I can use this article ?

Friday Outlook: Commodities, Global Markets

With the market being 50% down from peak, I think it's safe to say the 40 in volatility it's the new 20 as you were implying.
The volatility indicator should be somehow weighted with market level for a better view.

Let's face it. After the disaster of news that we were targeted in recent months, the few good economic indicators from last weeks made some difference in the market.
We all know this is not enough for a bottom and those who hurry to enter now are more risk takers.
From my point of view, this it was the way to go, I am not shocked. But I think it's a small chance that the streak of good news will continue.

Keep the good work David.

Friday Outlook: Commodities, Emerging Markets

Read carefully, it was terrible breadth all day and saved in the last half hour of trading... Professional traders know the true. Some kind of artificial correction.

Thursday Outlook: Commodities, Emerging Markets

gabe, when u see the rebound, 6 month, 1 year, 2 years ?
People here think on a much shorter scale. In 6 month you could lose tones of money.
The commodities sell off and the skyrocking of treasury says it all for now. I'm not sure what will happen next cuz there's nothing else to go down except stocks.
