The strong start of October faded away at the end of the month. I haven't seen such a big drop in emerging markets in such magnitude for a long time in the last week of October.

The latest report says the US economy showed a gain of more than 3% and as a result more talkes about whether this is a V-shaped, U-shaped, or W-shaped recovery have mushroomed all over the media. It's hard to say, but so far the recovery doesn't seem to have legs, just an inventory rebound.
