Two better options thus far?
Germany and India.
Going back to December, the analysts were telling people that the global markets would be lagging behind the U.S. however this is simply not the case. Due to Europe's 2015 QE campaign their stock market is on fire and will continue to be. Remember, QE is what has gotten the U.S. market where it is today. India has always just surpassed China for the world's fastest growing economy. I strongly suggest looking into European (particularly German) and India ETFs for a good place to put your money.
I think the U.S. market is only starting it's volatile ride so far in 2015. I wouldn't invest in this market right now even if you think a stock is trading for a good price. In my opinion I think almost all stocks have more room to fall for two reasons..
1) Stocks aren't AS overvalued as they were, but they're still not cheap enough either. Considering the dreaded correction has not yet come (it will come when the big institutions are finished unloading their shares) I think this market has plenty of room to fall more. If you think stocks are a good deal now just wait. They'll probably be cheaper soon enough.
2) No more QE. It doesn't take a genius to see how different the markets perform with and without QE. This is why valuations have gotten so out of whack because all of the "funny money" the fed has continued to pump into the market. Without QE these stock prices will not hold.
When it comes to investing we tend to make it much more difficult then it needs to be. One of my main strategies is to see what all the big banks/financial institutions are buying. Why? Because the way to work the market is to see where it's going and ride it and where ever the big boys are buying the market is going.
Guess where all the money is going right now? Europe and Asia.
I would consider investing in foreign markets and trading the volatile U.S. markets..
