Hi Rich,
You are probably aware of this board (non-us stocks):

Recent discussions there have been about British REITs.
I'm a fan of the ETF WIP, which holds non-US inflation-protected bonds. As the dollar weakens this tends to go up. Not a high-flyer.
I have been surprised at the number of countries that have Circle-K stores in them (e.g. Sweden). The parent (Alimentation Couche-Tard) is Canadian and I haven't checked to see what fraction of the business is US-related and what is not. I do not currently own this. They took a hit when they tried to merge with (Carrefour?).
OrmontUS has been coat-tailing Berkshire in some Japanese stocks. I fear it might be late to get on that particular wagon.
This is hardly useful but may give you some ideas.
Rgds,
HH/Sean
