I've heard some investors say that market growth will shift from US to the emerging markets this year, but it seems the emerging markets are taking a hit as well any time the US market drops.
Is there generally a correlation between the US and emerging markets? Does the US market have to do relatively well in order for the emerging markets to grow? Has there been any period where the emerging market showed significant growth while the US market stagnated or even fell?
Is it silly to expect the emerging market to grow this year, with the rise in US interest rate expected to draw back in dollars from abroad? Also, wouldn't weakening of the dollar lead to foreign corporations losing competitiveness, and therefore stifling growth in emerging markets?
