Bull Market Stumbles Over Emerging Economies
Play
Fears over the health of developing economies led to sharp drops on Wall Street last week, with the Dow Jones losing nearly 500 points in just two days.
The decade-long rise of those economies has been fueled by China's economic growth and by the low interest rates set by the U.S. Fed. But the Fed has begun to to taper its easy money policies and China's growth seems to be slowing.

David Kelly, chief global strategist for J.P. Morgan Funds, joins Here & Now's Meghna Chakrabarti with some insight. Then, Cardiff Garcia of the Financial Times joins Here & Now's Jeremy Hobson to take a closer look at Argentina's currency drop.
