I’m getting ready to buy into Europe

The euro could well implode this year - and that'll throw up some serious bargains in the eurozone. Bengt Saelensminde explains the tell-tale signs of an imminent collapse and tips one European stock to scoop up when it happens.

This year the big story that I'm looking forward to is 'Eurogeddon'. This is the moment when the euro crisis becomes so bleak that the authorities are panicked into an all-out rescue.

That will be the time when I will look to buy back into Europe. If you have a few trades ready, I think you could stand to make some serious returns. I've already got a great Portuguese stock lined up (I'll tell you about that later).

Bengt graduated from Reading University in 1994 and followed up with a master's degree in business economics.

 

He started stock market investing at the age of 13, and this eventually led to a job in the City of London in 1995. He started on a bond desk at Cantor Fitzgerald and ended up running a desk at stockbroker's Cazenove.

 

Bengt left the City in 2000 to start up his own import and beauty products business which he still runs today.
