I am feeling a bit bearish in the next few years....and am thinking to diversify more abroad, but with the same ease in Fidelity....I am looking at currency. Euro and swiss franc.

I did the Euro for a year, opportunistically buying on lows when I was planning to buy my retirement place in France a couple of years ago. I managed to shave 8 % off (averaged) , the spread was over 11 % but my timing is never exact :-)

anyone else looking ? as another option to T-bills, ? If so I would appreciate your thoughts. or should I just follow Warren into Japan.. ?
