Predictions About World Economy

[Aujuba]

This is the section where all the monied people hang around right? Well what do you see the future of the world economy as a whole to be. The recent events in the US markets, with the dollar, and the US administrations political weakeness seems worrying. What does the whole worldwide picture look like? Is the US as important to the world economy as it used to be?

Thailand's economy: shaky and worrying.

Rest of the world?

Same Same

But, in the end, all will be well and prosperous, in a year or 2, 3.

they said the first 5 day trade in the year, show how the stock market will perform during the year ! my market ( Australia ) went down 5.5 % during the first five day !

One major market falls - they all fall. Its all connected.

US markets? Not so sure, some speculate if Democrats get in the White House it'll be even worse, and vice versa for the Republicans.

Depends on China, the exports she keeps pumping out and if our oil reserves keep churning out the black gold.

UK market is tied into the US, but hopefully interest rates will hit 6% to cool the ridiculously over-priced housing market.

The movers and shakers and midas gurus may give a finer, more detailed analysis than I can.
