I own SFGIX/GICAX for a good foreign spread & MSMLX for the pure EM play (65%).
I like this spread a bit better than a single world stock, but then I'm into the mid/small value range since the rest of my port is in mid/large growth.
I agree
SFGIX - very diversified large-cap Asia-Dev (28%) , Latain America (16%), Asia-EM (33%), Europe-EM (15%).
MSMLX - mid-cap Asia-EM (65%), Asia-Dev (34%)
DGS (ETF 70% mid-cap, 30% small-cap) mostly Asia 64%
are all better choices in my opin…
