Yes, I've already bought some interesting undervalued non-US stocks
through Fidelity (Tsakos Energy Navigation -TNP- a Greek navigation
company which is now my largest holding in my 36-stock portfolio; or
KT Corporation -KTC- a Korean telecommunications company), but I would
like to expand my portfolio with stocks from those markets that look
cheaper to me...

I bought HSBC from my Schwab account.

Thanks. Yes, I know about the stamp duty, that's why I plan to buy
some English stocks in the U.S. market -such as Lloyds' or HSBC'-. In
the Italian market, I'm only interested in just one stock, so
hopefully it won't be very difficult to buy it.

Interactive Brokers handles the UK, Netherlands and Sweden, but not Italy. I
assume you are aware that the UK has a 0.5% stamp duty that makes stock
trading rather expensive.

I'm asking about internet discount brokers who deal with stocks from
these countries. I already have a U.S. Fidelity account -I opened it
when I was a resident in the U.S.- but it doesn't allow me to buy
individual stocks that are sold in foreign markets.

I don't know what you are asking. Are you asking if there are
discount brokers in these countries? Or are you asking if there are
discount brokers (in whichever country your reside) who deal with
stocks from these countries?

Default Any good internet discount brokers in the UK, Netherlands, Italy and Sweden?

Anyone knows good and cheap internet discount brokers in the UK,
Netherlands, Italy, and Sweden (these are the only European markets
I'm interested in)? I have a pretty good idea of what type of stocks I
would like to buy, I just need more information about internet brokers
which operate in these markets. Thanks!
