EEM: Should You Consider Emerging Markets?

FYI: They’re cheap, most investors are scared to death of them, and yet they have been slowly grinding higher throughout 2015. Are emerging markets — and the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF (NYSEARCA:EEM) — worth owning as we jump into the second quarter?

  • Still prefer Vanguard's equivalent ETF, VWO: (1) better performance, (b) less tracking error to the same index - use more stocks in the index instead just the top 200, and (3) lower ER.
