About this listen

 International investing offers portfolio diversification beyond your home market, especially valuable during US market downturns like in 2025. While investing abroad requires understanding different accounting standards, currency risks, and market access methods, modern brokerages make global investing increasingly accessible to beginners seeking broader opportunities. [00:00:45] International investing provides diversification beyond home markets during downturns. [00:02:45] Start with 10% allocation in countries you understand culturally. [00:06:30] Mexico, South America, Europe, Japan offer familiar business environments. [00:12:30] Avoid war-torn regions with poor business rule of law. [00:14:45] ADRs provide access to foreign stocks through US markets. [00:22:30] Interactive Brokers offers direct access to 36 international markets. [00:35:00] IFRS accounting treats R&D differently than US GAAP standards. [00:39:30] Currency fluctuations significantly impact international investment returns.
