Great piece from Consuelo Blanco Gamboa, CESGA® of FundsPeople (ES) interviewing Ronald Chan, CIO and Founder of Chartwell Capital on his visit to Madrid to talk about #China 🇨🇳 and #HongKong and the investment opportunities they can offer. Two highlights from the piece: "Negativity is high among most investors in Europe because what they can read has a negative tone. But they have read all this news and headlines to such an extent that they are becoming too pessimistic." Valuations at decade lows and signs of recovery suggest long-term upside potential. "Investors should keep an eye on government policies and underlying economic trends to make informed decisions," Chan concludes. cc Gabriel Castro, CFA JAVIER RUIZ, CFA Alejandro Martín Javier Saenz de Cenzano, CFA Joel Grau Javier Capapé Callum Thomas

Expansion, one of Spain's top financial journals, has recently featured a thought-provoking commentary by Timur Turlov, CEO of Freedom Holding Corp. The article explores the current landscape of global stock markets, with a spotlight on the European exchanges. As Turlov highlights, despite the U.S. economy’s impressive growth, European listed companies offer unique diversification opportunities for investors. 🌍 Turlov emphasizes that while the S&P 500 has grown by 230% in the last decade, the STOXX 600, Europe's benchmark, hit historic highs as well. Key players driving this growth aren't just in tech, like in the U.S., but come from a variety of industries. Think ASML's cutting-edge chip technology, LVMH’s luxury brands, and Novo Nordisk's pharmaceutical innovations. This diversity, according to Turlov, gives Europe an edge in offering strong revenue growth and high margins, while maintaining lower risk than U.S. tech-heavy portfolios. 📈 For investors looking to balance their portfolios, Turlov recommends considering European stocks, especially in the face of upcoming U.S. elections and rising geopolitical tensions. Diversifying into European markets could help mitigate risks while still maintaining solid returns. As Freedom24 continues to provide access to global markets, Turlov’s insights offer valuable guidance for those seeking stability in their investments. 🌟 Read more on Expansion ⬇️ #Freedom24 #GlobalInvesting #EuropeanMarkets #StockMarket #Diversification #InvestmentOpportunities #FinancialGrowth * Your capital is at risk.

#Nearshoring and supply chains have been swept into an electoral narrative that risks diverting attention from the real global industrial needs of today. The growing confusion between strategic industries and mass consumer products, driven by political interests, could undermine economic stability. #Mexico, along with countries like the #DominicanRepublic and #Costa Rica, plays a key role in North America’s competitiveness. The #USMCA is crucial for preserving regional integration, and upholding it is essential for the economic future of the region.

Mexicans are very hard on themselves. They don't appreciate everything they have achieved in the last 30 years, Andrew Jeffreys, CEO of Oxford Business Group, told the El Economista newspaper. The Oxford Business Group (OBG) is a global publishing, research and consultancy firm that provides economic intelligence on growth markets around the world. Mexico has become a large producer of manufactures of all kinds and is an export power, Jeffreys said. “In more ways than one, it is a country on the rise: there is talk of nearshoring, but this is not a coincidence: it has a privileged geographical position, several years developing skills in industries such as automotive and electronics. It has many advantages in demographics, including a large number of skilled people.” Jeffreys has been a consultant for three decades in various emerging countries, including Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Turkey, Colombia and some in Eastern Europe. “Of course Mexico has problems, I don't want to ignore them, but that is quite common in developing countries. Indonesia has thousands of islands that are complicated to connect and require a lot of infrastructure. There are other countries with a large population, but not as educated as in Mexico. None are so close to the largest world market.” "I’ve spent a lot of time in Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, and Eastern Europe. What I see in Mexico is perhaps a more favorable combination of factors than I've seen elsewhere or at other times. The Arab countries had their oil boom, Eastern Europe experienced the fall of the Berlin Wall and entry into the European Union. Now, the economic opportunity for Mexico could be even more significant," he said. Jeffreys noted that Mexico's opportunity arises amidst a redefinition of the United States-China relationship, and significant changes in the U.S. commodity chains in critical sectors. "I'm not saying it will be easy for Mexico, but many countries have achieved rapid economic development and infrastructure improvement," he added.

El Economista By Lilia González Friday, June 7, 2024 “ Executive Council of Global Companies asks for certainty from investments The Executive Council of Global Companies said that Mexico is going through a crucial economic and political moment, so the decisions that are taken in the future will be decisive for the future of the country in the coming decades.” …… “ The Executive Council of Global Companies (CEEG) seeks to be an ally in the formation of the National Development Plan of the new administration that will be led by Claudia Sheinbaum, but investors demand commitment to the rule of law, legal certainty and security.” …… …… More than 60 large companies that operate in different countries and have a solid presence in Mexico participate in the CEEG.
