International Overdiversification

What your analysis and reliance on the international aspects of US multinationals does not do is allow you to choose where your international diversification comes from. If you want to add Japan or Brazil for instance, there is no guarantee that any of your current holdings, whatever they may be, will do that. That is why you can choose dividend paying international stocks to provide sector and country diversification with more targeted results than provided by indistinct data from American multinationals. Use them for what they are: domestic companies operating in dollar economies.
