Emerging Markets Move To Center StageBrexit has come and gone, bond yields around the world keep declining or moving more into negative territory and fears of an impending financial crisis are mounting. But the markets are not showing much of that fear. The major equities indexes are doing very well and global economic growth remains anemic but looks better than it has in quite a while.The low or non-existent yields for sovereign debt are worrisome but they have done nothing to destabilize the currency markets.Interestingly, the emerging markets have moved into center stage during the hunt for yields. They are the ones showing a decent return on investments.Country Specific Developments:China: CPI eases to 1.9% YoY in JuneMexico: Consumer Confidence jumps in JuneBrazil:  Retail Sales drop 9% in May

Growth remains the main topic of conversation in the financial markets and among economists. But inflation is slowly surely becoming an equally important issue. Since we are seeing some degree of growth there is now also talk about the resurgence of inflation. That scourge remains quite limited as governments are still trying to get a good handle on economic expansion. Inflationary pressures are subdued everywhere.Inflation is not yet an issue, but if things develop according to expectations, it will be an issue by late this year. As inflation rises so will interest rates. Expectations are that we will see rates climb to 3% by the fourth quarter this year. Country Specific Developments:Russia: GDP begins to stabilize in April helped by oil and better global growthTurkey: Tourism drops sharply on tensions with RussiaChina:  Manufacturing sector continues to stagnate in May
