Advisors' Opinion:- [By Dan Caplinger]
You can see the same trends among many individual European stocks. Telecom giant Telefonica (NYSE: TEF ) has big exposure to Latin America, but investors focus on its home country of Spain in limiting its gains. The same trend has affected French oil giant Total (NYSE: TOT ) , which shares the same exposure to energy projects around the world yet has been tarnished by its proximity to the crisis-ridden continent. By focusing on value rather than perception, you can get some great values when others are being irrational.
