There's a "value gap" in European markets, and that's creating a unique opportunity for investors to buy up top-notch financial and industrial names at a bargain, according to David Herro, chief investment officer of international equities at Harris Associates.
European markets dropped sharply last year as war concerns mounted in Ukraine, energy prices surged, and the Chinese economy struggled.
But even as share prices dropped, earnings continued improving, opening up what Herro calls a value gap.
When it comes to international markets, Herro's got the credentials to support this type of declaration.
"Just about every one of the major European financials is over capitalized, and distributing that money back to shareholders positions," Herro told CNBC.
