In the realm where Nikkei lays,
The dragon of trade breathes its malaise,
Fortunes down, steelmakers grieve,
Clouds of doubt the sky doth weave.
To fair Eurozone's vast tide,
Inflation slows, bond yields confide,
Their steady course to ebb and sway,
An uncertain storm shall rule the day.
A weakened foot upon China's shore,
Dulled are steel's fierce fangs of yore,
In factories dark and trade winds mild,
Growth recedes like ocean’s wild.
