FYI: Anyone with an American-only 401(k) account missed out in the first quarter.
Funds that own stocks from Latin America, Asia and other foreign markets were some of the best performers during the first three months of the year. Hundreds had returns that were more than double those of the most popular U.S. stock funds, which were no slouches themselves. The largest U.S. stock fund had one of its best quarterly performances in years.
