Overview.
- Abstract
The article presents an overview of the world's economic condition for the period 2007 to 2008. The U.S. 10-year Treasury has increased to 5.25% at one point, up from 4.6% at the beginning of March 2007, while German Bunds are above 4.6%, which is up from 3.9% in early March. It is noted that the increase in bond yields has negatively affected the stock markets worldwide, just as they threatened a sustained rise above 2000-highs. With continued strong export demand, growth in Japan investment should remain in the 2.2% to 2.5% range. Chinese investment and exports have forged ahead, with import growth remaining relatively weak.
