When comparison Forex spots with World
Trade from CPB World Trade Monitor for economic policy analysis data
,during 2015 the followings concluded : 1- The Global Forex Spot Trade
is slightly higher than the World Real Trade in Fuels – taken in
considerations the sharp descent of oil prices during 2015 . 2- The
Global Forex Spots may rise higher than USA Exports . Forecasts through
2016 remains relatively challenging regarding Oil Prices.
USA Trade may
relatively unchanged during 2016 , although the World annual growth rate
points to 2.7% . We expect that Forex trade will grow along with the
World Product Trade.
