Where to Profit If (When) the Euro Falls Apart

Updated

The following video is part of our "Motley Fool Conversations" series, in which analyst Jim Mueller discusses topics around the investing world.

Greece voted to stay in the eurozone and take more austerity rather than leave. But that doesn't resolve the basic issue of no central fiscal authority imposing discipline upon all the members. Greece is still in trouble, as are Spain and Italy, and the voters of Germany will only be willing to bail everyone out for only so long. Unless the eurozone adopts a central fiscal policy, the euro is doomed. Where should you be invested if (or as I believe, "when") that happens?

With Europe in shambles, many investors may be nervous about investing in a company that's internationally focused, but they shouldn't be. Emerging markets are giving new life to established American companies with deep pockets. As these industry titans look abroad for more sales, they aren't starting with a blank slate -- they're bringing their operational excellence to new markets and thriving.
