(Bloomberg) --

Global trade volumes fell more than 1% in November compared with a year earlier, according to figures from the CPB Bureau for Economic Policy Analysis. That’s a sixth consecutive decline and it captures what’s been a rough period for the world economy. It also leaves global trade on track for its first full-year decline since 2009, ING calculates.
