Given the global economic slowdown, lower commodity prices, and cool-down in former red-hot grow markets such as China; the accompanying table presents statistics and an overview of a global transport short ETF strategy for passenger airlines, auto makers, maritime, and trucking companies.

Toyota Motors (TM) returned to profitability in the second quarter of fiscal 2010 ended Sept. 30, 2009, after reporting losses since the third quarter of fiscal 2009. The company posted a profit of ¥21.8 billion ($232 million) or ¥6.96 (7 cents) per share.
This can be attributed to government incentive programs across the world -- such as "Cash for Clunkers" -- that helped the company recoup its market share. However, this is still lower than the ¥139.8 billion ($1.49 billion) or ¥44.52 (47 cents) per share of profit recorded in the same quarter of 2008.
