   Very good. Internal consumption versus exporter of commodities.

   I always paid attention to the guidelines of Fedex. I’ve never seen this kind of chart. For me it is very interesting because it confirms my suspicions. What I did not expect was that it seems to be a reasonable leading indicator.
