Hi tooearly,
Pick a market, PM, energy last two years have been great.. China has been great, India has been great, US has been great.. I'm referring to long term staying power or a sea change in the global economic outlook. In a bull all boats float so to speak. I'm not burdened with needing to be right all the time so my view may change but for now I see China as the driving force. India is being pulled along..

The US markets have been in a nice mini bull for a year.. an indication in some camps of a solid recovery in the US, with only jobs wanting. The recovery has been aided by productivity, out sourcing being no small part of that phenomenon. It also helped India.

I guess what really gives me pause on India is the fact that they have been a democracy since 1947, had an ample go at capitalism, had the benefit of western know how, large English speaking population and they are only coming out now ? With that running start they should be dominating China .. all JMHO.. so while India has been a good trade, no, India hasn't impressed me yet.

Spots...

Hi TE,
Here is a little closer on how I view India (and China) as a unit hopefully. You may have noticed that much of the old political tension between the two has greatly mellowed in the last few years..

The biggest variable for me is whether India can hold it together or not. As a dynamic duo China and India would be sublime IMHO.. They have so many folks who have yet to taste the good life..
