The Introduction of Mark's Corner
 
The following chart and brief commentary is from the newest member of The Chart Store team, Mark Cremonie.  We have known Mark for almost 30 years and have been after him to contribute his thoughts to the Weekly Chart Blog for several years.  For more about Mark, we have added a brief bio to the "About" section.  We are sure you will come to appreciate his thoughts and insights into various markets in the months and years ahead.  Mark prefers to be brief on the commentary side and wants the "chart/charts" to tell the story.  Without further ado...........here are Mark's comments about the following chart:
 
We like to look at inter-relationships between markets.  One of the things that has jumped out to us in recent years is China's disproportionate impact on other markets/areas.  Chart 31 shows the relationship between the Chinese stock market, the stock price of a U.S. company and a specific commodity.
