The Politics of Global Investing

Most investment advisors focus on the numbers but miss the political aspect of global investing. But all great stock market bull runs begin with significant political change and economic reforms. Carl Delfeld, president of Chartwell Partners and ETFfolios.com, explains why successful global investing requires a keen political perspective and why country ETFs may be the best investment vehicle for investors eager to capture global growth and value opportunities.

Here’s How to Profit from the Dollar
Decline...and Lock in Safe, Double-Digit Yields

The US dollar has tumbled 44% versus the Brazilian real over the past five years. It’s also down 27% versus the euro and 30% against the Australian dollar. (The list goes on and on.) The best way to profit from this unstoppable trend is to buy foreign dividend-paying stocks. But which countries should you invest in? And which stocks will give you the greatest bang for your buck? Income investing expert Nick Lanyi—a 17-year industry veteran who spent nearly a decade working as Louis Rukeyser’s trusted lieutenant—has the answers. In this in-depth presentation, he’ll show you how to profit from the falling dollar—and how to lock in safe, dependable dividend yields of 10%, 15%, even 20% or more by investing in a select basket of well-researched, ultra-safe foreign stocks.

Natural Resource Stocks
for Diversification
and Balance
Thursday, November 6
3:30 pm – 4:15 pm

One of the smartest ways to hedge your investments is through natural resource and materials stocks. Owning gold helps you stave off the ill effects of inflation, the price of oil looks to be on a consistent upward trajectory, and the green revolution is revealing new uses for corn and some grains. Even the world’s most abundant resource, water, is emerging as a smart play as the booming population and infrastructure in Asia require larger and larger quantities of it. This panel of resource company executives and insiders will discuss these opportunities and others. Learn from those in the know which resources are ready to take off and the outlook for the sector in general.

A Defiant Bull

This market will continue to defy all expectations. Slow global growth begets low inflation which, in turn, produces higher multiples and better than expected returns. In the US market, the preceding will prevail, but stocks will get an even greater boost from a lower dollar, above average inflows from the havens of liquidity such as China, the Middle East, global hedge funds, and flush US corporations. The bottom line—very few believe the US market is the asset preference or the best return of any other option. Ned Riley, founder and CEO, Riley Asset Management, believes that contrarianism is still the best strategy.
