Q: Hello 5i,
I would like to add some southeast asia exposure to my portfolio. Jardine Matheson (JM - SP) was recommended on BNN as a good diversified holding. I did some research and thought it was interesting with exposure to China and Hong Kong (although real estate and land...) Would you know the name ? If so, can you please comment?

Instead, could it be just as good to buy some EWS:US (is the yield paid in USD?) or another ETF that you could recommend ? I was thinking of an allocation of 5 - 10% of my stock portfolio.

Also, is it possible to buy stocks on an international exchange through brokerage accounts ?

Your advice would be much appreciated, sorry for the long message and many questions and Thank you again for your great service. Regards.

Q: Hi
What is your opinion on the Muddy Waters claim that the chinese company nq is a fraud?
He said he has gathered his evidence in a two month period.
Isn`t that rather a short period of time to delve so deeply into a company and call it a fraud?
Thanks
