What impact will the US economy have on the BRIC
countries? Deirdre Keown,
Managing Editor of the Australian publication BRIC+ Digest, examines each of the four BRIC economies,
their dependence on the US as a trading partner, and their prospects for
inflation and economic growth.
We examine the case for investing in
water-based industries. Although there is little evidence
to expect that water will, like oil, prompt investment based on its
scarcity as a natural resource, we do identify the need for infrastructure,
on a global basis, to deal with recovery, purification, and delivery.
A new Department of Labor ruling increases the disclosure requirements for 401(k) fiduciaries and investment
providers. We examine the impact this will have on
financial advisors and the legal threats posed by the recent LaRue Supreme Court decision.
Lastly, we highlight some recent Advisor
Market Commentaries.
