\"Global<\/p>\n

Simply put, global investing is here to stay and it is the future of investing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Emerging market and global investing must play a part in your portfolio make-up. The future of your portfolio depends on it.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s why\u2026<\/p>\n

In the mid-1980s, the share of global gross domestic product held by the G-7 countries (the most developed first world countries) was about 70%…<\/p>\n

Today, that number is fast approaching 50% and will be below that amount by the end of this decade.<\/p>\n

Is the world shrinking? Not at all. In fact, global GDP is expanding. You probably won\u2019t be surprised to note that the share of global GDP held by the United States has fallen in percentage<\/em> term. However, as my old stats teacher used to say\u2026 people lie, numbers don\u2019t.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s missing from this equation is that the share of GDP in terms of actual dollars is growing<\/em> for the United States\u2026 it\u2019s just that it\u2019s also growing faster for many other places.<\/p>\n

China, for example, has tripled its share of Global GDP since the 80s, and so have place like India and Brazil. That said, it\u2019s pretty obvious that there\u2019s a lot of opportunity outside of our borders, opportunity that\u2019s been exploited adeptly by people like Alexander Green in his global trading service, The Pacific Advantage Alert<\/em>.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s time that you made the commitment to yourself and future generations to take the steps required to understand not only what\u2019s happening around the globe, but also learn how to trade global stocks today, before you miss the party altogether.<\/p>\n

In my book Where in the World Should I Invest<\/a><\/em>, I dedicate quite a few pages to showing you what to buy and how to buy it. I will give you a quick summary here \u2013 you can find out much more detailed information in the book.<\/p>\n
