Keep Your Eyes on the BRIC Nations
Last year we saw one of the worst bear markets ever in the stock market. However, we recently have seen a big rally in the markets that created forty percent rally in the S&P 500. The stocks that went up the most in the rally though are ones linked to the so called emerging market BRIC countries.
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.
The phrase BRIC was fired coined by a Goldman Sachs researcher in 2001. He claimed that the BRIC economies when added together will grow to be bigger than the countries that have the biggest economies right now. That means stocks in those countries should continue to do well, because the right ones will experience huge economic growth.
Investing is like real estate it is all about location and buying at the right time. Japan for instance right now is the second biggest global economy. But in 2050 it will slip to number eight in the world rankings and India will go to third place. India is number twelve now. It makes more sense to own stocks in India than it does to own stocks in Japan.
The United States has the biggest economy in the world right now, but is going to be passed by China by 2050. China already has a greater number of people living in it than any other country in the world. They are coming online in the modern world and the high economic growth in China is only going to happen even faster.
Brazil is worth keeping an eye on. People don't know it, but while the world is in recession Brazil's economy is still growing. The world recession isn't happening in Brazil.
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.
US investors can find opportunities to invest in the BRIC countries. There are exchange traded funds that track each country individually and one that is linked to all of them. There are also individual stocks from these countries that have dual listings on US exchanges. Huge opportunities to make great investments exist in these stocks. - 23223
