Global Market Square 

China, the Second largest economy in the world, is in deeper trouble than most think, and Wall Street closed up.

The U.S. & European stock markets closed marginally up, attempting to forget the losing ways of last week.

There was no significant U.S. economic data other than the U.S. Retail Gas price that rose 0.56% and is just -4.55% below last year; investors' focus turned back to interest rates, inflations, and the stronger-than-expected U.S. economic growth. 

 During the rest of the week, the attention turns to a vast array of economic data that begins with Retail sales tomorrow, followed by Exports and Imports, and much more.
