A brilliant idea where to start from! But maybe the 2009 current account surpluses (happening as we speak) in the Baltics WITHOUT devaluations would qualify as green shoots? No? Well, how is current account surplus WITH devaluation going to be better that WITHOUT it? Good luck with looking for green shoots in months-old data! A brilliant idea where to start from!

What we always see is growth of GDP, but never the actual curve over time. Do you know where I can find it (without account to any economic database, of course :D)? Many Thanks One graph I’d love to see is GDP (or even better, GDP per capita adjusted PPP) over the years, for a number of countries.

Many Thanks

Although there is no month on month data other indicators (industrial production compared to the average month in 2005) suggest a sharp decline compared to this year's March as well. In Romania the "crude" rate of decline month on month was 5,(% the seasonally and workday adjusted a 0,7% growth. Year on year it was a 9,=% contraction. That's what I was capable to collect.
