India Stocks
How do I buy stocks from India. Ameritrade and other brokers don’t list them.?
If you are an NRI(non resident Indian) or related to an NRI, try opening a checking account with a financial institution like ICICI bank. Purchase directly from brokers in India making sure of reputation and insurance of brokers..I would say you are still better off investing in MF(mutual funds) having Latin America, European Growth funds, Energy funds etc. Indian stocks of only few(security, defense, hightech) companies are promising though Indian MF have had better returns(10% +). Fidelity has some MF that do have Indian stocks. Charles Schwab might have opened an overseas department in India. They do have one in Pakistan. Singapore depositories are new that make it easy to invest in foriegn stockds. Good luck but be careful.The Silicon valley BOOM has shifted to silicon India…BUST might be inevitable.
