It's hard to be a bear when a billion dollars a day is being pumped into the market, eh?
I just look at the list of ADRs and marvel at how poorly represented most of the world is. We don't have access to most foreign markets, there's poor execution and poor liquidity. I'd venture to guess that we'll look back 25 years from now and marvel at how few foreign equities existed. And a new set of market leaders will emerge from unlikely places.
Hard to imagine Asia sinking into depression when companies with assets and employees the size of our Dow stocks are trading as microcaps. The NYSE is looking for a huge expansion of ADRs, especially Chinese stocks, in the next few years. The mighty Israeli technology sector is in its infancy. The double-digit european unemployment and high real interest rates, combined with the expansion of money supply, looks like the U.S. in 1982. IMHO we ain't seen nothing yet. I, for one, am increasingly afraid to be out of the market, it is a time to at least park a little money in an international index fund where the money will slosh around and find new homes.
The money will move, the markets will become much more complex and volatile, and someday Americans will be reminded that they are less than 5% of the world's population.
