So while Spanish is the only other language I can read, I'v invested in companies in China, Vietnam, Brazil, France, etc. without needing the ability to read Mandarin, Vietnamese, Portuegese and French because all of the information I need including Annual Reports, Management Discussion & Analysis, news about the companies, I've always been able to find in English. I have a course that will be part of my Members Only SmartKnowledgeU curriculum that teaches people how to identify stellar foreign stocks, but this portion of my website won't be live for another month or so. But with the globalization of the internet, most of the information you need to make intelligent decisions about foreign stocks is right at your fingertips...quite literally. Hope that helps! Best, J.S. Hi Kristy,

Actually almost any company worth investing in has a website, and thanks to English being the universal language, almost every website has a “mirror” website in English. So while Spanish is the only other language I can read, I’v invested in companies in China, Vietnam, Brazil, France, etc. without needing the ability to read Mandarin, Vietnamese, Portuegese and French because all of the information I need including Annual Reports, Management Discussion & Analysis, news about the companies, I’ve always been able to find in English. I have a course that will be part of my Members Only SmartKnowledgeU curriculum that teaches people how to identify stellar foreign stocks, but this portion of my website won’t be live for another month or so.

But with the globalization of the internet, most of the information you need to make intelligent decisions about foreign stocks is right at your fingertips…quite literally. Hope that helps!

Thanks, Kristy hi JS,
