How to Invest in Foreign Countries
The survey is done and the results are in. According to the latest poll by U.S. News and World Reports on the "best countries to invest in," the most promising locale is...Malaysia.
Not the world's most populous country -- China. Not the country with the cheapest 10-year cyclically adjusted P/E ratio -- Russia. And no, not the U.S. either -- though, to be fair, it wasn't included in the survey.
Even if you don't know where Malaysia is, much less how to invest in it, I've got some good news for you. Assuming you don't mind ratcheting up the risk in your portfolio -- exchange rate risk and the like -- international investing really isn't that hard.
