Enterprising Investor Forum

We have been so focused on troubles in the US and more recently, in Europe that most people have completely forgotten about the rest of the world. Naturally, the US is impacting everyone else and other markets are principally responding to the moves on wall street but we thought that our readers might like to have the following overview.

In the following graph, we compare the latest 3 month performance for the US total Market (using the Vanguard VTI) against the Russian market ETF (RSX), the Greater China Fund (XGCHX) and the Japan Equity Fund (JEQ).

Needless to say, not a pretty site…. and it looks like the end of then week will only drag this graph lower.
