15 Europe Dividend Stocks Gaining Mostly From A Rising Dollar originally appeared at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. One growing trend on the market is
the gaining U.S. Dollar Index.
The dollar is becoming more and more expensive
against major currencies on the world and a growing number of companies
announce to get hurt by higher rates.
A second trend is
the overvaluation of the market, caused by the monetary easing of the FED.
Stocks traded at P/E levels over 20. That's a big number and not justifiable
with slow growth.
Today I like to
show you some of the stocks from Europe that could benefit from an ongoing rising
dollar. Those stocks sell a lot of stuff in U.S. Dollar.
Attached is a
small list of 15 companies, headquartered in Europe with annual sales from
U.S., North America or Canada above 50 percent of total sales.
