Trading overseas is particularly grim this morning, with only four
of the 15 markets that we follow in positive territory. The
cumulative average return on the group stands at a -0.132 percent.
Investors have largely shrugged off the positive earnings reports
from Nestle and Schering, as carmakers were among the leading
decliners due to the continued rise in oil prices. On the other
hand, Asia put in a positive session, with the Nikkei closing with
a 0.25-percent gain. The June contract on sweet crude oil made
substantial gains on Friday. All day, the contract traded at or
above the previous close of $54.20 per barrel. Earnings season
rolls on, and several energy companies are due to reveal their
secrets this week, with analysts expecting the high crude prices to
bump up the numbers. Be prepared for the investing week ahead with

DYNAMIC MARKET OPPORTUNITIES Read the press release following the
latest meeting of G7 nations and chief among the list of concerns
are the "imbalances" cited in economic growth, government finances
and currency flows. For example, much of the world is currently too
dependent on the US and China to generate forward economic
progress, while Japan and Europe continue to struggle. However,
sustained solid expansion in the US is by no means a guarantee.
While corporate profits are still very healthy, the pace of job
growth remains inconsistent, and the country's deficits continue to
weigh heavily on both the economy and the dollar. China saw another
explosive quarter, in which GDP growth soared 9.5% compared with a
year earlier. But that doesn't hide the fact that such
extraordinary expansion cannot continue forever. While the Chinese
government's attempts to cool the economy have so far met with
limited success, the economy will eventually slow down. By then,
it's imperative that other global economies can compensate. The G7
also cites the serious problem regarding China's currency policy.
China's yuan currency remains attached to the US dollar at 8.28 -
undoubtedly an artificially low level that gives the Chinese an
unfair competitive advantage over the US in the global export
market. America's bloated trade deficit, and its trade gap with
China, is key evidence. The G7 report called for "more flexibility
in exchange rates" and "vigorous action needed to address global
imbalances." The US noted that China has had over two years to
reform its currency policy, and demanded immediate action to move
to a fairer valuation. All countries except Japan supported the US,
arguing that this would encourage other Asian nations to allow
their currencies to appreciate against the dollar, and enhancing
parity. However, China ignored the remarks, maintaining that sudden
currency policy shifts could derail its economic stability. In
March, People's Bank of China governor Zhou Xiaochuan said China
would not revalue the yuan simply to correct trade imbalances. Read
