CAPS Rating:
*****

exchange traded funds

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Vanguard Emerging Markets ETF (VWO)

Captures the greater upside of emerging markets while diversifying some of the risk of the individual firms in such markets. Toss in a nice dividend and very low fees and this looks like a solid bet to outperform.

This is simply an ETF holding stocks from emerging markets economies. I like the longer term growth of these markets, but frankly, also like the forward p/e ratios of China, South Korea, and Taiwan when compared to the US. I think it should outperform the S&P. Also, many of these economies are raw material based, which could be a plus if you are concerned about inflation longer term. The very low expense ratio of this ETF - especially when compared to the developing/emerging markets sector is noteworthy, too. It could be very volatile.

China, India and Brazil are perhaps the 3 fastest growing economies outside of the US. So why would you not want to get in on this ETF?
Taking a collection of the largest companies, in many emerging markets around the world, and putting them into this ETF was a piece of genius by Vanguard. Companies like Samsung, Tata Motors and PetroBras make up the foundation for this ETF.
Imagine if you could put your money into some of the fastest growing companies in the world, but rather than pick a handful of them you just got them all. That is what this is. The fastest growing economies all grouped together. It is instant diversification for any retirement or savings fund.
Lately, these markets have been getting destroyed by the global economic crisis, but now is the opportunity to get in. With prices as low as they are and the economic crisis slowing down it seems like the perfect time to get into this ETF made up of the fastest growing countries and companies in the world.

While the hype of emerging markets is high the intrinsic value of VWO may be overpriced, but despite this with pressure on the US dollar and threat of inflation in the next 3-5 years VWO will easily outperform the S&P 500. Buy VWO on the dips and profit long term.

I have a hard time believing the Dubai World debt debacle will be the last blowup to come out of the over leveraged developing world. How long can China fuel growth with an artificially deflated currency? And at some point in 2010 the Fed will be forced to start raising interest rates... the carry trade will end, and we'll see massive equity price deflation as money comes back home to the US.
