Tired of getting caught tongue-tied at the polo field bar when someone asks whether Russian Utilities are cheap? Annoyed at the lack of your ability to instantly respond on the richness of British Beverage companies when racing Veyrons in Dubai? Have no fear. UBS, Global Valuation Heat Map provides an at a glance table of the best (and worst) global sectors for your hard-earned local currency to be devalued in.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dark blue (very cheap)<\/strong> = current relative valuation < -1.5 standard deviations from historical average<\/em>
Light blue (cheap)<\/strong> = current relative valuation between < -1.5 and <-0.75 standard deviations from historical average<\/em>
No colour (neutral or N\/A)<\/strong> = current relative valuation between > -0.75 and <+0.75 standard deviations from historical average<\/em>
