Arguably it is now the United States of America. In twenty years time do you see this changing? Will it be the EU? UK? Personally I believe that it will be India and China as they will control not only manufacturing but also will have a controlling stake in Information Technology and the business markets in general..... They are producing very highly skilled people at a very low labour cost compared to the rest of the world. What do you think?

I don't know man! India I think will definitely be up there. Their stock market is growing rapidly (Sensex keeps breaking records) the real estate market is booming.... They are adding over 5 million subscribers to their mobile networks each month (look at the attention the sale of Hutch is receiving) Many, many global corporations such as Invensys, Microsoft, HP etc have located to places like Bangalore and because of rapid growth are now looking at Hyderabad and Chennai etc All the signs are there.....
