INSIGHT

Why International Stocks Still Have More Upside

  • Scott Galloway argues international stocks still have room to beat the S&P because valuations remain cheaper and earnings growth is stronger outside the U.S.
  • He cites emerging markets at 13.5x forward earnings versus the S&P near 19, plus a weaker dollar and extreme S&P concentration with 40% in 10 stocks.
ANECDOTE

How Scott Galloway Actually Invests His Money

  • Scott Galloway says his biggest outside-U.S. bet is a special-situations fund, and he recently bought a British aerospace company while watching Mercado Libre.
  • He also owns homes in New York, London, Palm Beach, and Aspen because he believes the super-rich cluster in a few finite real estate markets.
ADVICE

  • Avoid random inbound angel deals unless you have a real edge, and focus on public companies, advantaged private deals, or real estate.
  • Scott Galloway says only one in seven angel investments gets liquidity, and he now invests to not get poor rather than to get rich.
