For €5000, I would go with some blue chip nice dividend paying stocks. McDonalds are a good buy IMO at $90 currently and they pay 3% dividend.

I think Tesla motors are going to do well with their new model s about to be launched but it might be too late. They are $31 with a $42 price target over the next year.

If you want to have high risk but potentially very high return you could buy Bank of Ireland at €0.095 or Royal Bank of Scotland 245p STG. The UK government bought half the bank for twice that per share.

Ryanair could do well also over the next few years.

Kenmare resources are also in my portfolio.

like bank shares..
but buying any thing in $ seems crazy at 1e=$1.27 was 1e=$1.48 which would considerably reduce a 3% return(not to mention capital loss),especialy when i predict a 1e=$2.....thats my destorted view

Most people see an upward trend never ending and now its impossible to convince anyone that this downward trend is just about done...King of diamonds at least

europe will fail if solution doesnt come soon!!europe cant fail.....my opinion

solution imminent:cool:mark my words

True, their customers are international (mostly outside Europe) but it's strange the way the stock market works sometimes - even if the crisis shouldn't affect Siemens profits (as most of their revenue is international) the fact they are European hurts their stock price anyway, as investors lose confidence in other investors.

My best buy so far is Yandex (YNDX), they are up 10.71% ($18.81 from $16.69) since I bought them on Thursday, which makes me think this stock market game is easy although obviously three days when the stock market as a whole was up is not a great gauge. Still a nice start to my investing career, but mostly I'm curious what will happen it when the stock market goes down.

They went down to 16.69 mainly because Mozilla said Yandex would no longer be the default search engine in Russia; so I thought it was a good opportunity for a bargain - although I'm depending on customer loyalty after Mozilla makes the switch to keep profits increasing at least in the medium term. The fact that the price has gone back up suggests this is the kind of bad news that investors forget about a few days later.

banco santander is down 40% in the past three months , this despite the fact that its europes largest bank at does nearly half its business in brazil and latin america , its a spanish bank so has gotten weighed down accordingly , the markets are irrational at the moment so no stock is entirely safe , i often watch cnbc where the speak of high dividend stocks like johnson and johnson for safety but even those are down this past number of months , the banks in america are paying less than 1% on savings so div stocks are the only option for income , we really are fortunate in this country at the moment , savings rates are exceptionally generous and the only game in town with the extremle volatility in the equity markets , KBC bank are offering 4% on a one year fixed term , what blue chip stock can beat that

as for handy quick gains

mulberry group which is a luxury goods maker in the uk , dropped by 25% last thursday due to slightly disapointing earnings , went from around 21 pound back to 15 pound , i bought in at 15.45 , was up by 10% by friday afternoon but the thing is back down at 15.45 today or where i began more or less , will be interesting to see what aer lingus does in the next two days , a quick jump or a rebound after a sell off should be grabbed quick , takes a while for the dust to settle , big jumps dont last

usa collapse due, i was saying a european rise long over due.

usa market capital has expanded ,which would explan perceived gains,(and euro got cheaper)

if european recovery comes ,any $stock gains when returning to euro`s will be lost.

when euro recovery comes ,that will be a perfect time to invest in u.s.a. and cheap holiday......But sure the euro will never recover!

[QUOTE=bee_keeper;, i often watch cnbc where the speak of high dividend stocks like johas for handy quick gains

so you expect a u.s collapse in equities to coincide with a surge in european stocks , is that what your saying ?

i think most american money is heading for europe(equities) at this moment...which will boost european (equites) and make the euro stronger say 1e=$1.5(maybe$2)....then dollar(crisis) will start repurchasing cheaper $debt like europe(eurodebt) has just done...followed with another european buying opportunity which will send dollar up again....Thats how i am seeing things....

dollar needs to take a step back to rebuild,europe has just done its step back!may not happen this way but $ could greatly do with a small crisis to increase bond yields and scare bondholders into selling below par.(daft not to)russel napier predicts dow 400/800 SCARY

crisis is shifting...i`am not a pro.(nowhere near) but have a keen interest in economic history and monetary policy.

I also see an end to low interest rates in europe

Currency and interest rates are key to all markets(my opinion)

thats quite a take you have on the present market

you think the euro is going to 1= 2$ , as if the periphery was not uncompetitive enough as it is

as for american private equity flowing into europe , all i hear is how the big money men are avoiding europe
