Danielle was a guest with Jim Goddard on the Talk Digital Network talking about recent developments in the world economy and markets. You can listen to an audio clip of the segment here.
As discussed in the segment, here is the chart of South Korean exports –canary-in-the-coal-mine for global demand (in black)–compared with global earnings per share (blue) since 1992. The decline in exports year to date is a ominous sign for corporate earnings over coming months.
Also here is Cory Venable’s updated chart of the Canadian dollar in US terms since it peaked out in 2011. Further loonie weakness seems likely over coming weeks.
