Larger US firms should make for good investments when the recovery starts, according to one expert.
Simon Moss, fund manager US equities at investment firm SWIP, explained that the bigger firms in the country will have exposure to emerging economies such as China .
"We are expecting these companies to do better relative to the market over the next year and recover quicker as markets improve," he said.
His colleague Nick Ford added that the strength of the dollar when compared to sterling and the euro will also make investments in the US more attractive.
The firm expects that short-term volatility will persist, but also believes there will be investment opportunities created by this situation.
However, in the long run, "mega caps" will be the best investments, the company stated.
Yesterday, Rensburg Sheppards, an independent wealth management company, advised people to consider their investment portfolio in 2009 and look at how it is performing.
