This summary was created by AI, based on 1 opinions in the last 12 months.

The BMO MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF (ZEM-T) is viewed as a diversified approach for investors looking to tap into emerging markets, particularly highlighting India's potential within this sector. Experts emphasize the volatility typically associated with emerging markets; hence, holding a diversified ETF like ZEM-T helps in mitigating individual country risks and spreads exposure across a variety of markets. The ETF's structure allows for participation in high-beta sectors, making it a compelling option for those wary of concentrating investments in single markets. Furthermore, while Latin American economies are currently performing well, the consensus leans towards the benefits of owning a broader basket of emerging countries rather than focusing solely on specific regions or nations.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
The MSCI Emerging Markets Index. Do you want to establish a new position in emerging markets today? He thinks we will re-test the December lows. He would wait until we see levels closer to December lows to step into emerging markets. There is a lot of volatility risk right now. He would buy into weakness.
TOP PICK

The problem with the emerging markets is that it is made of a lot of moving parts and they are not necessarily moving together. On a downtrend but it is basing. He thinks he is going to buy it in the next couple of weeks. He would probably enter the position on a break out probably at $19.

COMMENT

Some emerging market plays are challenging. The markets are closed when ours are open so they bid / ask spread tends to be high. EEM-N would be preferred but it is in US dollars. VEE-T is another option.

TOP PICK

Chart shows the bottom in August-September, which is holding. If we have a global expansion emerging markets should benefit.

TOP PICK

(or VEE-T) The idea is to gradually move away from the US to global markets. It is closing the gap in terms of outperforming.

TOP PICK

Charting it against iShares MSCI World Index Fund (XWD-T) for a comparison. Chart shows that the BMO product is starting to close the gap. The period from March on is beginning to be a period of early relative outperformance.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Nov 9/11, Up 2.09%) Now prefers the VEE from Vanguard.

BUY
Emerging markets are really tough to invest in easily. You need to have scale and global presence. Prefers VEE, VWO in the US.
TOP PICK
Emerging Markets ETF. This one is so much cheaper than the other broad market ETF's in Canada. Broadly diversified.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 23/10. Down 0.64%.)
BUY
Emerging Markets ETF. Great deal of volatility but good for younger children for the long term if you want growth.
BUY
Emerging Markets ETF. Likes this as well as any of them. All similar in costs and structure.
BUY
Emerging Markets ETF. Thought BMO did a good job bringing this one into the market and surprised that the trading volume is so low. Has about 24 different countries in it. Well diversified.
BUY
Emerging Markets, good for Asian exposure.
BUY
His favourite emerging market ETF because it is the cheapest.
