Wait. What?


The S&P 500 is down 10% YTD. Tough, yes, but not the end of the world.


The China Shanghai Composite index is down 50% YTD. Also down big are the reputations of economists and strategists who called for a decoupling of the U.S. economy from the BRIC economies, and by association financial markets.
We sneeze, they get a cold. The linkage remains.
