TOP PICK
More defensive that holds healthcare, insurance and financial services. European growth is stronger than the US at the moment. With the economy being close to the end of the long bull cycle this makes sense. The chart is very steady eddy and is exposed to the swiss franc instead of the euro.

TOP PICK
A more classically defensive European ETF, holding high quality companies. A defensive bid on currency as well. Yield 2.2%

A conservative way to play a rebound in Europe. Much less risky than Spain or Italy. Yield 2.26%

COMMENT
He does think that Europe will start to come back and, some interesting things could happen there. Obviously Switzerland is part of that. This one has done very well, partly because it is dominated by Nestlé (17.2%). Not really a cyclical index. Doesn’t think anything will go wrong with this, but thinks you will do better to look at something like the S&P 500 Value (IVE-N).

Switzerland. He likes the currency play. Swiss currency is pegged to Euro. Switzerland is a very concentrated market, like Canada. 4 companies make up most of it. You are buying 4 stocks. It is a defensive holding.
