Global stocks or foreign stocks give investors exposure to regions and countries outside where they're domiciled to help avoid domestic bias. Before purchasing any global stocks, it's important to understand the global investable market - in other words, all the stocks on this planet. These can be found as a collection in an index produced by MSCI called the All Country World Index - also called ACWI - which contains 99% of the world's investable stocks. It's further broken down into emerging markets and developed markets which have a weak correlation. While the former has more embedded risks, the latter has outperformed meaningfully over the past 15 years. If you're wondering if you should invest in global stocks (you should at least consider it), or how you might invest in global stocks (we propose the easiest way for everyone), then this video on foreign stocks is for you.

Also, the Hank Hill joke at the video start is a classic. The presenter actually pulled that one off on a "patron" at Joe Bananas in Wan Chai much to the amusement of his rugby teammates. They used to call it "East Admiralty" because some of the wives wouldn't let their husbands go to Wan Chai. And if you said "Wan Chai," you were immediately fined. Same thing for saying Pattaya instead of "Bangkok Suburbs."
