Buying Stocks in Emerging Markets
We lived through the worst stock market crash in over 50 years last year and markets across the planet got taken down in it. But the past few months have brought us a nice rally. What you may not know though, is that the markets of the so called BRIC nations have gone up faster than the DOW and S&P 500.
BRIC stands for Brazil, Russia, India, and China. The next four decades are going to see the biggest global growth come from these four countries. They are the future. That means that some of the best long-term investments we can make now will be in these countries.
An analyst at Goldman Sachs first put the letters together BRIC in 2001. He said that the BRIC countries would see their economies grow to become bigger than the biggest world economies as they are right now. He said buy investments in those countries to get in on the growth.
Being a good investor means being able to spot opportunities like those that exist right now in the BRIC nations and thinking outside of the box. Fifteen years ago it was popular to invest in Japan. But Japan is going to go from having the third biggest economy in the world to number eight by 2050. It is going to get replaced by India which is now number eight. It makes more sense to own Indian stocks than investments focused on Japan.
China is going to have the biggest economy in the world by 2050. Right now the US does, but US is going to become number two. China is the most heavily populated country in the world and those people are moving from a peasant economy into the cities and becoming modern. Billions of Chinese working together to grow together is going to be a very profitable thing to be a part of.
Brazil is also an incredibly attractive place to invest. While the economy of the US shrank over 5.5% in the first quarter of this year Brazil's GDP actually grew. It completely shook off the global financial crisis.
The leaders of the BRIC nations see the future and are working together. The other week Russian finance leaders brought the leaders of these countries together for a power summit. They all talked about cooperating to help each other out. They are the future.
If you live in the United States you have plenty of opportunities to invest in Brazil, Russia, India, or China. There are mutual funds that specialize in each of these countries and some that invest in all of them. There are depository receipts that trade on the stock exchange and hold stock in individual companies from the BRIC nations. They just appear to be regular stocks to trade and they been the fastest rising stocks in the market in the past few months. Fortune favors the bold and those who understand the future and how to profit from it. - 23311
