Here is the problem with this call: Siemens is a great company but its valuations look higher than most of the other large conglomerates. Its market cap is $131 billion on a currency adjusted basis. Part of its100% rise in ADR's is because of the weak dollar, but even in Euros this stock is up more than 60% over the last year. Keep in mind that these are all ADR's, and even active ADR's tend to trade fewer shares in the US than their US-based competitors.
Philips Electronics (NYSE:PHG) was his top EU pick on Monday, and that is another conglomerate.
His pick from Tuesday was Switzerland's ABB Ltd. (NYSE:ABB), a key infrastructure play.
