Heading into 2023, investors around the world are beginning to see the potential in US stocks over internationals. Wells Fargo Investment Institute, the leading research and Investment strategy firm, has released a report that explains the potential risks and rewards of investing in US stocks over internationals.
Scott Wren, senior global market strategist at the Wells Fargo Investment Institute, believes that the cost savings that US stocks offer outweigh any potential risk that comes with investing in internationals. He wrote in a note to clients Wednesday, “We expect the markets to continue this trend until investors receive more signals that it’s safe to diversify their portfolios into international markets.”
Azhar Iqbal, the head of global market strategy for Wells Fargo Investment Institute, believes that the cooling inflation that is currently observed in the markets isn’t likely to be sustainable. He wrote, “What happens if your Investment are down just as you’re heading into retirement? It’s important to diversify your portfolio to avoid such scenarios.”
