&lt;p&gt;The falling dollar means foreign investors are buying thousands of American firms, but at the same time American companies are going to countries such as Mexico in search of cheap labour and lower prices. Al Jazeera's Sherine Tadros reports from Greenville, Michigan on what the foreign buy-up of America could mean for the US in the long term.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Falling stock&#160;markets, rising unemployment and soaring oil prices. The world's biggest economy is on the slippery slope to recession.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The US economy has&#160;suffered massively. Oil has increased to a record $139 a barrel, the dollar has slumped, and as a result, share prices have plummeted.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Worse still, George Bush, the US president, has announced the monthly US unemployment rate has taken its biggest leap in two decades.&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Rob Reynolds reports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Recession, downturn or simply a slump? Irrespective of the language no-one can deny the US economy has taken a turn for the worse.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The question is today will the US drag the rest of the global economy down with it?
&lt;br /&gt;A coomon rule of thumb was when the US sneezes the rest of the world catches a cold. Does that still ring true or have other countries broken their dependency on the US economic engine.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
