International Assets as a Hedge Against the Dollar's Coming Decline

December 04, 2008

The dollar currently enjoys a temporary boost in its value vis-a-vis other major international currencies. We have discussed some of the reasons for this previously.  Recently, the Blue Star analysis was confirmed by Euro Pacific Capital, which is headed by Peter Schiff, one of the few major market analysts to predict the current financial crisis.  Read their similar assessment here.  


Individuals who want to hedge their own portfolios should get in touch with Euro Pacific.  They specialize in foreign brokerage and investing.  Companies and businesses who are looking for ways to earn a return on their capital as well as hedge against the coming decline of the dollar should contact us at Blue Star.

Traditional currency hedges are simply not going to be enough, and they are merely a speculative financial tool, not an investment.  Let us not forget Benjamin Graham's consistent distinction between speculation and investment.  

Investing into foreign operational businesses, whether as minority shareholders or as the sole owner, offers American companies the ability to hold assets in foreign currencies that are not likely to depreciate as quickly as the dollar if the U.S. government continues its irresponsible monetary and fiscal spending spree, while simultaneously growing the real value of their assets under well managed companies with real customers, real products, and real profits.  It is a currency hedge and an asset investment all wrapped up into one.  

If you are a business owner with capital that needs to be reinvested, or you are looking to divest of some of your domestic assets in favor of something that offers long-term safety, contact us at Blue Star and we can assist you in finding and acquiring the kinds of assets that will protect you in these uncertain times.
