Q: I was starting to build a position in rio thinking it was a fairly solid dividend payer in the materials sector with some international exposure. It is down almost 4%today. do you think this is on the basis of the decreased copper production due to temporary issues or the sec charges for past executives and likely to smolder for some time. SGould I continue to add or bail. Thanks for your advice.

Q: Interested in placing direct investments in China, Japan & possibly India. Trading market must be US. Primary interest is Technology & Space.
This will be completely separate from our current traditional investments as reviewed occasionally with you over the years. Aside from established players in the above markets, I would consider vertically specialized ETFs that have a strong Bloomberg rating. Please deduct accordingly. Thank you.

Q: Good morning! Could you please give your choice of a Emerging Markets ETF. I have just looked at Goldman Sachs "GEM" which has been recommended. Do you like it or is there another that you would choose. Thanks, as always your opinion is so appreciated.

Q: Hi team, I am looking to diversify a bit more out of North America and was wondering what you think of the above ETF's. What do you think of AIA for Asia or do you recommend a different ETF for this area. Also, at this time which European ETF would you recommend, currency isn't an issue.
As always thanks for your advice.

Q: What do you think of GREK as an investment (and why it’s been falling lately)? The only professional endorsement I’m aware of is James Thorne’s on BNN back in May. I’m wondering if it’s a good time to get in.

Generally speaking, do you frown on country-specific ETFs, or would you make some exceptions (like India or Russia), especially for long term holds? Thanks.

Q: Hi,

I am looking for a good emerging markets ETF. In my screens there are so many to choose from and many with high Dividends, along with very strong gains, which of course I like. Since I know nothing about which countries and sectors to look for, could you recommend 2 or 3 good Emerging Market ETFS, preferably with a solid dividend and high growth potential, and also at a value price if possible. I am not overly concerned about risk and have no exposure in this area. Thank You.
