And that means it might be prudent to look overseas for opportunities right now.<\/p>\n<p>A look at valuations in the U.S. stock market makes it clear that a lot of the \u201ceasy money has already been made,\u201d Charles says. That\u2019s not to say he\u2019s bearish on the U.S., of course \u2026 just not impressed with the hope of continued upside.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Europe appears to be undervalued based on earnings. And more importantly, as the Federal Reserve cuts back on its stimulative efforts there is a chance that Europe will be the place investors look to for more central banking assistance. After all, says Charles, the Fed can\u2019t get any looser with policy even if it wants to, while the ECB has more wiggle room in regards to monetary policy.<\/p>\n<p>But what about China?<\/p>\n<p>Well, China\u2019s growth is still impressive at 7.5% annually based on recent GDP estimates \u2026 but that admittedly is much reduced from previous years and even expectations a few months ago. Charles says he is cautiously optimistic on the region after so much negativity has been priced in, but certainly not as optimistic on a China recovery as he is on a European one.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/sizemoreletter.us2.list-manage.com\/subscribe?u=9d96acebea38ce5045e6823c8&amp;id=49e6f885bb\"><b>SUBSCRIBE\u00a0<\/b><\/a>to\u00a0<em>Sizemore Insights<\/em>\u00a0via e-mail today.<\/p>\n<div class='yarpp-related-rss'>\n<p>Related posts:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href='http:\/\/charlessizemore.com\/europe-will-be-the-best-performing-market-for-the-rest-of-2012\/' rel='bookmark' title='Europe Will Be the Best-Performing Market for the Rest of 2012'>Europe Will Be the Best-Performing Market for the Rest of 2012<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href='http:\/\/charlessizemore.com\/video-china-japan-and-their-demographic-time-bombs\/' rel='bookmark' title='VIDEO: China, Japan and their Demographic Time Bombs'>VIDEO: China, Japan and their Demographic Time Bombs<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href='http:\/\/charlessizemore.com\/triple-dip-recession-in-france-what-now\/' rel='bookmark' title='Triple-Dip Recession in France&#8230;What Now?'>Triple-Dip Recession in France&#8230;What Now?<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p> <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/17W2Dp7\" target=\"blank\"><u>Join the Sizemore Investment Letter &#8211; Premium Edition<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By The Sizemore Letter Jeff Reeves and I take a trip around the world, giving our thoughts on American, European and Chinese equities.
