As the pace of recovery is healthier in emerging economies as compared to the slower pace of recovery in the developed world, it seems that Brazil, China and India are poised to lead the way out of recession. The outlook for the Barzilian petrochemical industry is very optimistic as compared with a year ago. Demand for petrochemicals in Brazil is stable, evident in the 1.9% growth of economy in Q2-09.
