Commodity prices continued to drift lower in February, although much less rapidly than their 50% nose-dive in the second half of 2008. Most of the weakness was concentrated in natural gas, where weak industrial demand sent prices to $4 per mbtu. Crude oil prices rose above $40 (US) a barrel. Prices for food and metals were little changed. 6, record 1, English, - nosedive

La dégringolade du dollar canadien, passé de 0,91 dollar américain à environ 0,63 dollar, a également constitué un facteur – elle a contribué à stimuler les exportations canadiennes aux États-Unis – la croissance des importations a été presque aussi vigoureuse de sorte que le taux de change n’a pas constitué un facteur crucial. 3, record 1, French, - s%C3%A9rie%20de%20d%C3%A9faites%20cons%C3%A9cutives
