Seafarer's Espinosa makes the case for emerging markets in a rising-rate world

Money Life with Chuck Jaffe - A podcast by Chuck Jaffe

Categories:

Paul Espinosa, lead manager at Seafarer Overseas Value, says that many central banks have been raising rates ahead of the Federal Reserve -- which is not the usual case -- and while those rate increases have led to some stock market struggles, the support for the currency creates more investment security and opportunity for long-term investors. He says investors will need to be patient and picky, noting that emerging markets may struggle but will still offer up plenty of winners for good stockpickers. Also on the show: Ted Rossman of Bankrate.com discusses the troubles that half of Americans have experienced with membership services and recurring charges on credit cards -- and how to avoid falling into the same trap -- we revisit a recent question Chuck answered on the various methods for paying off credit-card debt, and Nathan Rex of Eigenvector Capital talks value investing in the Market Call.
