Last September, I highlighted opportunities resulting from what was then a great deal of turbulence in emerging markets. By December, the selloff had finally caught up to the US market.
For the highest quality global utilities like Enel SpA (Italy: ENEL, OTC: ENLAY), however, the bottom had been in since October. As a result, they were havens during the worst of the selling and went on to rally strongly in the first quarter.
Now with the Trump Administration once again saber rattling on trade policy, many investors are back selling. We believe they’ll come to regret the move, just as many did for last fall.
