Henrys:

I agree that growth rates generally move along with GDP growth... however, that doesn't explain the difference in forklift sales to each region. If you look at the GDP of Europe vs. the GDP of North America, its not double the size... but forklift orders for Europe are double that of North America.

Thanks, this was an interesting point.
