Good catch. VWO was not always a mirror of EEM as they originally didn't have a few important countries (I think it was Korea...) that EEM do and it is more thinly traded. However, if I would buy more Emerging Markets, I agree with VWO .

To that end, yesterday I bought the Vanguard Europe ETF - VGK - instead of the iShares one as it's MER is 0.18.
