Unlock Hidden Gems: How Foreign Stocks Can Supercharge Your Portfolio!

As US equities look pricey, astute investors are looking abroad. International markets provide strong opportunities for diversification and growth. Here's where to begin:

 

1) Think international mutual funds or ETFs for exposure across the board

 

2) Look into direct investment in foreign stocks through tools such as Vested or Winvesta

 

3) Research GIFT City platforms for a India-based path to global markets

 

Most promising regions to focus on:

 

1) Europe: Consolidation opportunities in the middle market

 

2) Japan: Potential for continued growth

 

3) Emerging markets: Sustained GDP growth and improving incomes

 

Invest 15-30% of your equity allocation in foreign stocks, based on your risk profile. Begin with small amounts such as ₹5,000 every month through SIPs. Don't forget to factor in currency risks and be aware of changes in regulations. With prudent research and proper diversification, foreign stocks can bring very useful diversification to your 2025 investment portfolio.
