FWIW Dept.

After hearing a CNN report from the APEC summit yesterday that 13 million US jobs were export-related, I have been looking for some statistics about the effect of an Asia slowdown. Here is one summary I found:

dlcppi.org

It looks to me like about 4 million jobs are US/Asia related and I would guess that 30-40 % of these are at risk from the Asia problems. Does anyone know off-hand what percentage of the overall US jobs this would be?
