The Current Events of Emerging Markets
In this article, the focus will be on non-fiscal and non-monetary measures and events, which might impact the emerging markets’ economic performance. For the sake of simplicity, the emerging markets will be defined as the BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South-Africa), which does not mean that other countries and events will not be included, but the main focus is on these 5. The indicators under investigation for the countries are the main PMI-s and sector output and economic activity changes.
