The World Market in 2017.

In watching Bloomberg, they talked of what would interfere with growth, these are the issues.

1. Any conflicts of war or governmental changes. These are places to watch:

Venzuala-The people in Venzuela are in upheaval over their leader and the government is in strife to where it will go. Venzueala is oil rich and could effect that commodity on the world oil market.

Ukraine-There is a war going on in the Ukraine that is not covered by the mainstream media. You can only find out about it through correspondent links and foreign news agencies. Russia use to pipe in a lot of natural gas to the Ukraine, that is not happening now and won't pick up in anytime soon. Maybe the upcoming Russian and American relations will improve with Trump.

Libya-Again, oil. Most of the ISIS elements have been cleared out but the country is not that stable and other countries that produce oil might like it that way to keep the supply down and entering the market. As long as there is war and conflict in any oil producing area worldwide, then that is the excuse to keep prices up and profitable.

Syria and Iraq. Same problems with Libya, but in Syria and Iraq, there is a lot more player. So just follow, won't nothing happen much in 2017 unless ISIS is done in and the rebel forces in Syria relinquish.

Terrorism disrupts economic supply lines and cost countries a lot of money for maintaining vigilance.
Terrorist know this and that's why they attack people (tax payers) and economic flow.

Pakistan and India has been heating up and both sides have nukes, all over Kashmir which is the water supply to both countries.

Donald Trump has been talking bad on Mexico, NAFTA, TPP and China. If he puts forth a trade war with any of these countries, it will cause disruption in supply chains around the world because all this has been connected and was started with globalization since Reagan. A lot of nationalist and isolationist do not comphrehend this, which is stupid.
