MARKET CONTAGION

It is said that global stock markets are intertwined/connected and that market performance in one part of the world could have fundamental impacts or influences on the markets in other parts of the world (contagion). This phenomenon was recently exhibited across the markets in Asia and the developed states in Europe and North America.

Provide an account of the performance of the major global markets in the last 3 months to date, commenting of how stock markets performance in Asia impacted on the stock markets in Europe, North America and to an extent markets in Africa (at a secondary level). Clearly outline the reasons that were responsible for the stock market declines (fall in stock market indices).
