Looking for the cause of this wobble, besides the move to wait for an interest rate increase in the US, the reason mentioned by most analysts is investors’ concern about the health of the world’s second largest economy.

As a result of these developments, global stocks had a record weekly decline.

Under the greatest selling pressure are the stocks with the strongest increases since the beginning of the year.

With news from China, the pressure on commodity markets seems to have never ended since the financial crisis.

The MSCI EM Currency Index – which tracks emerging country currencies – is at a 5-year low.

On Bloomberg, one currency investor called this a `race to the bottom`.

`It seems we are seeing the risk of the 1997 Asian crisis, when the currencies of emerging countries plummeted. The impact of China’s actions on other countries is huge, and the country’s growth slows down.`

Gold prices had the strongest weekly increase in 7 months thanks to investors’ need for shelter.

On the contrary, the gold market became a rare bright spot with the strongest weekly increase since January.
