Group C: Asian countries ETF's

The last decades we have seen magnificent growth rates in most Asian countries. In the long run these double digit growth rates are not sustainable. Expansive growth and swift corrections go hand in hand.

A short growth halt or even a phase of short-lived decline are to be expected. But I myself will regard these periods as excellent entry points. In the long run I am very positive about Asia.

Finding the right entry point will be the main challenge for trading ETF’s in Asia. Exactly for this reason I am following these 10 Asian country ETF’s.

Vanguard FTSE developed Asia Pacific ex Japan UCITS ETF

This particular ETF is a made to measure ETF containing only a few countries. Australia and New Zealand also are included. I will explain why Japan is specifically excluded. Samsung is the largest company within this ETF and with a 45% weighing banks will impact this ETF heavily. Read more...

HSBC MSCI China UCITS ETF

You will read why I explicitly did not decide to follow the MSCI China A index. In the long run China’s future is bright. The period of economic transition will provide for very interesting entry points. Read more...

Lyxor MSCI India UCITS ETF

iShares MSCI Korea UCITS ETF (Dist)

Is Kore able to show more stunning growth rates or has it stretched it growth potential too far? Korea is very depended upon a small number of very large multinationals. Especially Samsung is maybe too dominant with a 20% share of this ETF. The same goes for the IT sector with a weighing of 35%. Read more...

iShares MSCI Taiwan UCITS ETF

Taiwan’s investors potential is underrated in my opinion. It harbors many high-tech companies that have plenty of opportunities for growth. I will explain my personal views of Taiwan. 55% of this MSCI Taiwan index is taken up by IT companies. If Asia goes in correction mode it will be this ETF I will buy first. Read more...

DB X-Trackers MSCI Philippines IM index UCITS ETF

May The Philippines show still more potential to grow? I think so. The market sector Consumer Goods is only weighed at a 10% and this already explains part of its opportunities. We will have to watch for sharp market corrections but these are endemic for all Asian countries. Timely entries and exits are crucial here. Read more...

Indonesia also is a country with a high potential for growth. I will get into the major threats for the Indonesian economy.
