Accords conclus à la suite d’une conférence monétaire, tenue à Bretton Woods(New Hampshire, États-Unis) en juillet 1944, entre 44 pays, et qui instaurèrent un système monétaire basé sur la libre convertibilité des monnaies et la fixité des taux de change. L'hégémonie du dollar, dont la valeur était définie par rapport à l'or, y fut consacrée. 2, record 1, French, - accords%20de%20Bretton%20Woods

Después de terminada la gran guerra, se ciñe una incertidumbre sobre el rumbo de la economía mundial, Gran Bretaña que finalizaba una larga hegemonía y Estados Unidos quien no terminaba de definirse como líder económico del mundo pero que buscaba establecer las bases para tomar lo más pronto posible el papel hegemónico que tanto anhelaba. Aunque desde puntos de vista distintos, empezaron a conceder importancia a los problemas de la economía de la posguerra, impulsados por la necesidad común de una cooperación internacional. El resultado fueron los acuerdos de Bretton Woods. 1, record 1, Spanish, - acuerdos%20de%20Bretton%20Woods

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 2, English, - nosedive

The steep slide of the Canadian dollar from as high as 91 cents US to the 63 cent range was also a factor – it helped boost Canadian exports to the US – but import growth was almost as vigorous so this exchange rate factor was not a major one. 4, record 2, 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 2, French, - s%C3%A9rie%20de%20d%C3%A9faites%20cons%C3%A9cutives
