Yes, diversifiction india ( ifn ) up nearly 4 % today along with Russia. Companies in these cournties are expanding fast with low p/e. India pharma is in a no.1 position worldwide in exports to develoing contries. But like me , many people got out of property in spain, florida etc. and invested in DR. Developing nations are the place to be! DYODD but it seems S.To could jump 10% + in two weeks. Options are possible! Day range quite high for solid co. and problems in Madagascar could pass!

yes those are good but risky, i am a believer in the long term for US equities companies like GE(General Electric) are behemoths that are seriously undervalued at this moment in time. 2 - 3 years down the road this is one the stocks that will be back to its previous highs.


Which countries would you recommend for investing in bonds?

RE: THE STOCK MARKET: Who Is Into That?
Sometimes all it takes is some common sense.

Case in point the Auto companies.

When all the bailout crap started one company stood out. Ford. They pulled out. A quick review showed that financially Ford was heads above the other companies but their stock didn't reflect that. It plunged in the panic.

i saw it when it hit $1.80 in Feb. and pounced. It closed today at $5.75.

Do the math!

I am only familiar with US bonds and am learning of the DR markets bonds. DR bonds have very attractive yields, but I need to do a bit more Due Diligence on them. Before Hipolito came into power they were receiving praise as attractive safe investments. These are the only markets I am familiar with in detail but mainly US. US bonds have very low yields tho so unless you have a bunch invested you won't make much money. Eurobonds are pretty good also. You can also look into some bond funds which have different types of bonds in the portfolio that many times give pretty decent returns.

Yes, I was in bonds til about 1year ago when the financial problems started and international bond prices started reducucing - a good run however for 3 years with ABN AMRO fund
http://www.fundsupermart.com/main/research/viewHTML.tpl?articleNo=2188
still recommended by many.
Since the US is only 15% of World's economy and there has been a lot of problems with major companies it may be that other markets are better now. Certainly been happy with Russia but of course prudent at the moment to be largly in fixed interest term deposits and cash. since it is entirely possible the DOW could drop overnight by 50% without a chance to sell. I think in 1971 some indices dropped to one third of previous peak.
Certainly major indices has never regained levels seen in 1999. There may be a bear rally at the moment.
http://www.mysmp.com/stocks/bear-market-rally.html
certainly made money in stocks such as kgc but out at the moment. Demand for gold, major metals uncertain and much mining capacity.
http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bc?s=KGC&t=5y
Demand for europe exports, led by germany seems to be holding up euro may strengthen. - pound euro have moved sharply up.
Howvever it is tough for beer mats just now.

Collect them before they become scarce....
GE has seen historcally huge selling
http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bc?s=GE&t=my
It may well continue downward trend as it is widely held by pension funds who are having to cash in to pay pensions; the US savings ratio continuing low in the US and less people are able to save for pensions.

Poor GC - so many years and his brain box fails on simple problems such as what to do with broke down TV's Musit be so boring to perm his limited vocablary into 20 word diatribes against me!
Maybe he would recover if he had good food - yesterday went to a new German restaurant here - excellent food! Excellent investment for the owner.......
Meanwhile GC enjoys his scripophily

RE: THE STOCK MARKET: Who Is Into That?
Totally Wrong.........I think We are everywhere......

I have been in the stockmarket arround 15 years, I know some Dominicans doing the same..
Go check Trader Magazine, you can find the best 30 traders under 30, guess what? you got a Dominican Born there.....

OK...
Afrolatino I am glad you'd like to know about investing...

In this field Information is your main concern either if you are a long term investor or a short term investor. I like Short Term, Day Trade, Two Days, Three Days, Etc..
I do not recommend this to people that do not know what they are doing, because is very risky..

Another guy wrote the word Diversification he is right…..

There are million of websites where you can start to watch the Stock Market

Yahoo Finance, Msn, CNBC, Bloomberg, etc..

It is the first time I am writing in this community, I hope it is not the last..
I will be back to give some opinion. Without any controversy, just for the purpose of learning and share smart opinions..

Thanks
