Investors looking to invest in foreign stocks such as Apple or Facebook have many options today. There are mutual funds schemes that invest in such stocks, and of course, the seasoned investor can take the direct equity route. And the going has been good in some international markets. For example, the US market has been seeing sharp gains since Donald Trump was elected President. The Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 13.42 per cent in the calendar year 2016 vis-a-vis the S&P BSE Index, which rose just 1.95 per cent.
