Stocks To Follow In 2008

Stock markets around the world are starting to rebound with investors believing we are through the worst of the credit crunch. Many of these investors believe that various stock markets will reach new highs towards the end of 2008 and this is why they are starting to invest their money will the shares look cheap. I am an experienced investor from the UK and in this article I am going to be writing about where the stocks that I think will shine this year.

This week in the UK our new Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, had quite a shock after his Labour party had a very poor result in the local elections. Brown has been rather weak since taking over and these results should shake him into action. I believe he will come back fighting and announce some positive measures to help the country out of the damaging mortgage crisis. These measures, if the happen, will give the FTSE 100 a huge boost which is likely to spread to other markets around the world.


Before I write about where I am investing my hard earned money it is important to state that they should not be seen as any form of advice and that they are just personal choices, I am not a financial adviser.

I think that a couple of the banks have been over sold and am investing into Lloyds and Barclays. I personally prefer to invest in different funds and the ones that I think could do very well over the next few months are as follows:

M&G Recovery Fund
Invesco Perpetual High Income Fund
Jupiter Financial Opportunities Fund
Jupiter Emerging European Opportunities Fund

I invest monthly amounts in these funds which takes advantage of pound cost averaging. I also invest over the long term as I believe that these funds will be a lot higher in for example five years than they are currently.
