Emerging Markets Lead Global Rebound
Maura Lockwood, Cabot Headline News
July 01, 2009
Stocks rose around the world in the second quarter, particularly in emerging markets, the Wall Street Journal reported. Quarterly gains in developing countries such as Russia and China beat stocks in the U.S., France and England.
China's benchmark Shanghai index gained 25% in the second quarter, and Brazil's was up 26%, compared to a rise of 11% in the Dow Jones Industrial Average and a gain of 8.2% in the U.K.'s FTSE 100, according to the Journal.
India, Turkey and Argentina delivered the best performing benchmark indexes for their respective regions for the second quarter, the Journal reported. Gains in India, up 49%, and Argentina, up 41%, were driven partly by elections. In Europe, Turkey, up 43%, nosed out Russia, also up 43%, whose benchmark index nearly took the lead on the last day of the quarter.
The consensus on Wall Street has moved back to emerging markets and China, as investors see opportunities in countries where people want to own their first house, their first car and so on, the Journal reported.
