Hey Hershie, which emerging markets interest you these days? Which are at the earliest stages in growth?

Definitely worth looking into India. I know a lot of funds in the UK avoided India for a long time because it just doesnt yet have the image and its infrastructure isnt as developed as China. A whole range of India funds came online in the two years because the growth has been so significant.

There was approx 20% correction in Dec through Feb in the India markets... good way in.

Two new India ETF's just stated trading and it has taken a long time for this to come to market because of regulatory stuff they had to deal with - I think the PowerShares one just started trading yesterday:

PowerShares India Portfolio (PIN)
WidsomTree India Earnings Fund (EPI)
