Toyota vs. GM
Okay, which do I invest in Toyota or GM?
I am not very smart about such things. I also have an aversion to entrusting my money to people and companies that are so big they wouldn’t miss my money if they lost it.
It seems that the current wisdom is to invest more overseas.
Is that right?
In, ‘02 there were about $1 Billion dollars that went into foreign funds. In ‘05 it was 155 times that amount. Holy moly!
But 401K asset mixes typically allot only 6% to international markets.
There is at least one giant market that is growing much faster than the US and that is in….China. No mystery there. And Japan is starting to finally wake from its 15 year nap as well.
Toyota or GM…that’s a no brainer.
But, how do I learn to trust other people with my money?
Somebody teach me, please.

Why not choose Ford? Toyota is flush with money right now, and your better returns are from the companies that are hurting and in need of cash. Ford’s offering 5.75-6.1% fixed term rates with Ford Interest Advantage (that beats my bank CDs by almost a full point).
