BRICs Underperforming Since November

|

While US stock markets have punched through what appeared to be a double top made at the beginning of November (“Top Gun FP Client Note: Double Top”, originally sent November 22, 2010), BRIC stock markets – excluding Russia – have not made new highs and have been weak since then:

  • The Brazilian lBovespa is down 8.8% from its November 4, 2010 high.
  • The Indian Sensex is down 12.4% from its November 5, 2010 high.
  • The Chinese Shanghai Composite is down 12.4% from its November 11, 2010 high.
