White Papers and Articles
Dr. Bryan Taylor, President and Chief Economist of Global Financial Data, has written
a number of articles that illustrate the uses of long-term analysis of financial
data. These articles analyze the performance of global markets over the past three
centuries, compare the performance of stocks in different sectors of the market
as well as different countries, and analyze stock market cycles and long-term returns
to investors.
Since financial markets interact with one another to create the dynamic changes that we see every day, we also provide articles that analyze various aspects of financial markets including exchange rates, interest rates and total returns. Finally, we analyze foreign currency markets and show how the introduction of the Euro will shape global markets in the coming decade.
