3 Reasons to Invest Overseas in a Post-Bailout World
The biggest financial bailout in history hangs in the balance today as House Republicans and Democrats lock horns over the small print.
Keith Fitz-Gerald says the political posturing and wrangling over the plan distracts from the key financial issues. Can America afford a $700 billion rescue package?
Keith says investors need to understand three keys points. A bailout will cause national debt to climb, the US inflation rate to soar and the US dollar to tank. Bottom line: Investors need to go overseas for growth and profits in the foreseeable future.
Early Indicators: The Bear Stearns Effect
– Lehman Brothers is doomed opines Bloomberg’s Michael Lewis this morning. Ironically, Lewis says Lehman’s (NYSE:LEH) fate is sealed because, following the government’s bailout of rival Bear Stearns, those who do business with Lehman don’t care too much if it stands or falls.

The Bear Stearns bailout was supposed to prevent the crisis from rippling through Wall Street. Obviously it hasn’t done that. It’s merely thrown the crisis into slow motion and prolonged the agony.
Tom Dyson Says Investors Can’t Lose in Taiwan’s Stock Market
As US stocks yo-yo up and down and America’s financial crisis continues to unfold, savvy investors are looking further afield for profit opportunities.
DailyWealth’s Tom Dyson reckons he’s found a great buying opportunity in Taiwan. Its economy and stock markets are in a ditch because the government controls the flow of money in and out of the country. This prevents China from taking over Taiwan’s economy.
It means Taiwanese companies have plenty of cash on their books… And according to Tom, it makes them “excellent dividend payers.”

Jim Rogers Buys into Taiwan
