High US unemployment, and low commodity prices are great news for the multinationals, along with their shareholders. We should see an uptick on profit margins, along with dividends from corporations who’s manufacturing operations are centered in Asia. All bad news come’s with a silver lining.

Actually no.  About a third of the world's economic activity is in the U.S. and half the world's wealth's been created by Americans.   When America sneezes the world catches pneumonia.

Except for US Exporters when you consider the US Dollar rally.

Except for the Tax rate corporations must pay to repatriate that cash.

Seems like Silver linings come with a catch.
