Investment co. (foreign) industry

Article Abstract:

Low risk through portfolio diversification may be achieved by global investing, via purchasing shares of closed-end mutual funds that invest in foreign securities. Although the Mexican currency collapse of 1994 increased awareness of risk, Latin American inflation has decreased. Investment potential for Western Europe is attractive, but Asia shows potential for inflation. Investors should look for mutual funds that in which foreign stocks have good valuations.

Investment co. (foreign) industry

Article Abstract:

Returns on most single-country closed end mutual funds were negative for 1995. The European stock markets have been weak with currency problems, political scandals, and a slower economy. Latin American and Asian-Pacific funds have performed poorly due to inflation, slow economic growth, and other problems. Asian and Pacific Rim funds should be avoided, but several European funds may offer good discounts for the patient investor.

Investment co. (foreign) industry

Article Abstract:

Some investors, fearful that US stocks are overvalued, are looking at foreign markets. It is questionable whether gains in some countries are sustainable however. Some funds that trade in foreign securities are attractively priced, despite political problems and business slowdowns. The countries that could provide attractive returns include South Korea, Thailand, Malaysia, Germany, and Taiwan.
