Q: Hi Peter et al:
I am looking to invest some money in India. The two etf's that I was able to find are xid and zid. I am looking for mid to large cap value,however BMO states that zid is growth oriented and high risk. I am a subscriber to your etf branch but I couldn't find what I needed there. Also what would you recommend for etf exposure to Europe and the Euro, which I believe will appreciate relative to the cad.
Thanks,
BEN.

Q: Hi Peter,
In a well diversified portfolio, which India fund would you hold (from the list above or another) ? Why is FIH/U currently agging the others ? We already own FFH; Is buying FIH/U as well too much Fairfax ?
Thank you, Paul

Q: I would like your recommendation on ETF's or funds that would focus on Japan and India, preferably larger cap holdings. One or more recommendations is fine but I do want a Canadian dollar traded product as I don't want to get into the costs incurred with exchanging CDN to US.
Thanks for the sensible and steady advice you folks provide! Rob

Q: I'm considering an investment in India. What do you think about a long-term (5+ years) in that country? Capital gains are my primary interest. How should I invest there - Fairfax India (FTD.UN), Excel India Growth & Income Fund, INDY or XID? Do you have other suggestions for that market?

Q: What do you recommend is the best way of gaining exposure to the Indian stock market? In the past I have purchased Excel India mutual fund and I am considering Fairfax Indian fund. I am a long term investor and plan to hold my position for at least 5 years. I welcome your comments.
