![]() Even if global shipment numbers hold steady at essentially 2009 levels, there will be regional variations. Some regions such as the Middle East and Africa will fare comparatively better, but volumes there are quite low. The Asia-Pacific region will suffer most in 2009, primarily as a result of its huge volume of shipments, roughly triple the next largest region. And stabilization, if it comes, will arrive there a little later than in North America and Europe, resulting in a 2010 forecast that still shows a minimal decline in shipments, while other regions may enjoy a minimal positive growth. |
