<<The New Silk Road And The Center of the Trading Universe

History buffs will recall the Silk Road as the lucrative trade routes that crisscrossed Asia in the past. It connected merchants in China to India, the Middle East, eastern Africa and the Roman Empire.

These days, there is a new Silk Road emerging in Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Middle East. And according to the World Trade Organization, it generated some $2.8 trillion in trade in 2008.

The WTO also estimates that trade between emerging markets rose an annual average of 18% from 2000 to 2008. The same can’t be said for trade between such countries and their advanced counterparts.


In other words, this new silk road bypasses the United States and other developed economies.>>
