Chief Market Strategist:What To Look At Now

There really is a sense that something very profound is happening in Spain,said Stephen Wood,PhD,Chief Market Strategist at Russell Investments.There's a sense they're on the edge of something big.It's the fourth largest economy in Europe.We're facing one of the first global stimulus packages in four years.
The UK is just chugging along as it always has.I would have to say the US right now has much stronger fundamentals.They may be better than China right now.Corporations have strong balance sheets.
You need globally diversified,multi-asset portfolios.The Federal Reserve is forcing people up the risk spectrum.I would be looking at emerging markets and corporate debt,Dr.Wood advised.
