With financial challenges continuing to plague parts of Europe the Eurozone economy is expected to shrink again in 2013. \u00a0Economist predict a 0.3% decline. \u00a0This is the second recession faced by the area since 2009. \u00a0This is contrary to the initial predictions that their economy would be recovering and moving in a positive direction this year. \u00a0Many experts blame the job market, tight lending environment, and the housing market for the continued decline. \u00a0For those living in parts of the Eurozone these statements seem to severely underplay the overall economic challenges being faced by its citizens.<\/p>\n

The declining economy and bad job market is leading to social unrest in addition to financial problems. \u00a0On February 17th protesters took to the streets in 35 Bulgarian countries to protest high utility prices. \u00a0This was one of many protest throughout the country that have lasted for over ten days. \u00a0Citizens were protesting high prices and lower living standards. \u00a0These protest culminated in Prime Minister Boiko Borisov issuing \u00a0a formal resignation of his government. \u00a0Now the future remains unclear for Bulgaria. \u00a0While only one country inside the Eurozone these recent events point to a clear unrest in the area, making investments into the EU fraught with additional risk. \u00a0It is not simply the recession that investors have to worry about.\u00a0These types of protest are becoming \u00a0more common as the overall public is dissatisfied with the conditions. \u00a0Protest, and changes that take place because of them, can directly impact jobs, transportation, logistics and operations within a company. \u00a0While Western European countries like Germany \u00a0try to prop up other countries within the zone investors have to question how long that can continue.<\/p>\n

As an investor it is important to evaluate the risk associated with investing in companies located within the Eurozone. \u00a0With political unrest there could be changes taking place that would directly impact a companies profitability, or even ability to compete. \u00a0By contrast the US economy is expected to continue to grow at a rate of 2% to 2.5% per quarter throughout 2013, making it ripe for investing. \u00a0The\u00a0infrastructure\u00a0in the US is stable, there are no\u00a0foreseeable\u00a0mass protest on the horizon, and the economy is showing solid signs of rebounding. \u00a0The housing market grew at the fastest rate since 2006 as median home prices in December of 2012 were 11.5% higher than December of 2011. \u00a0 Now is the time for investors to direct funds into the US economy and benefit from growth that is taking place and on the horizon. \u00a0Investors acting now have the opportunity to negotiate terms with businesses that are highly in their favor, while waiting for further growth could lead to negotiations trending in favor of the current business ownership group.<\/p>\n

Investors that are investing funds in the European market should evaluate their portfolio and determine whether they are confident in its ability to ride out the political unrest in Europe. \u00a0If not, redirecting funds into US businesses may be a safer and more prosperous alternative.<\/p>\n
