BONUS CHART >>Â got to include a goody for the goodies who subscribed.
EM vs DM: After another promising attempt at finally well and truly shaking off the relative bear market of the past decade, emerging markets have lost ground again in relative terms vs developed markets. Seems like this bottoming process is indeed more of a process, and for now very much a work in progress.
