If you are interested in purchasing individual stocks rather than a mutual fund as Bucketlist suggested, you could look at the holdings of "international" mutual funds and research some of the stocks in their holdings to see which ones you may want to invest in.

thats kind of the take i have on it.. companies that sell internationally, not just within the US.

good idea about checking out some "international" mutual funds to find companies to start researching.
