Joe, after watching your videos, I've come to realize that it's a good idea to gain my foreign/emerging markets exposure through American companies doing business in these countries.
I generally avoid commenting on social media posts but without offense to anyone's view or research, I just want to share my personal experience as a retail investor in Indian stock market since 2008, I got more than 15% CAGR return till date. NIFTY has given 16% CAGR & Sensex has given 14% CAGR return in last 20 years and these are all facts, not fiction.
That's great that you took time out of your busy day to let us know you made some money in the stock market. Great stuff, but we're interested in further discussing the facts raised in this presentation sourced from experts which point to the serious systematic risks found in the Indian market.
Seems like corruption is a big issue in all emerging markets. I have about 2% of my portfolio is FLIN. I focus mainly on U.S. and European stocks. But wanted a little bit of exposure to India since I believe it will be the next large economy.
We discussed that here (th-cam.com/video/fb4qzL0CrvI/w-d-xo.html). Each emerging market comes with its own set of risks, usually best understood by being a local or an expat with lots of local experience. We find that peering in through the lens of superficial bull thesis articles doesn't typically paint a true picture of what's happening.
Investors who want to have some assurance of success would find a broad benchmark is the best way to not underperform the benchmark. :) Better yet would be Bogles three fund approach which we covered here: th-cam.com/video/1LYR3hD8VFA/w-d-xo.html

We don't give investment advice, but we do have an entire channel with 460 videos and a website with 2,400 research pieces that cover our thoughts on investing. ;)
Oh that's great to hear! You know this video proved to be (understandably) controversial based on some comments we received. Do you think it fairly portrays the risks involved for foreign investors looking at India?
That's a good question to raise on our Discord server ;) To answer that we'd have to spend some time researching it. As the video said, it doesn't seem advisable to try and cherry pick stocks in India.
It has a lot of risks that aren't so obvious. Retail investors don't seem capable of analyzing these risks unless they're natives and well versed in the domain. An ETF is probably the best way forward for retail.
Consider making video about investing in Turkey stock market. There is not many videos teaching retail investors about how to invest the emerging countries.
Coincidentally, we've been having this discussion with someone about publishing our content in Turkish. (We're actually doing Mandarin first - it's tough.) As for investing in Turkey, there's not much interest. The iShares ETF only has $200 million in AUM and the country has a 0.09% weighting in MSCI ACWI. We will be doing more videos on global investing so stay tuned!
Ditto on Turkey. TUR$ iShares MSCI Turkey ETF is my only option but i was late to benefit from the Ukraine -Russia war jump it had. It’s still on my list tho.
There are a LOT of good indian companies which are solid investments. I understand not many foreign investers understand indian market yet. But few black marks does not represent the entire market. Investors are not flowing into india due to red tapes not because of scams!
The evidence we've presented suggests that it's not just a matter of people not having a sufficient understanding. The Indian government has a lot of work to do here.

Thank you Joe for the tremendous work you're doing. I was wondering if you could shed some light on investing in Indonesia and Nigeria. I've been wracking my brains how to go about this topic since I've read prognosis about population growth in these two emerging markets
Thank you for the kind words! I spent several months in Indonesia speaking with tech startups. I recall a story about how their unique identifier (social security number equivalent) sometimes is duplicated up on up to five people. It's pretty hard to keep track of your population if they aren't labeled. And a huge population it is - 4th largest in world with 277 million. The iShares MSCI ETF has about $440 million in assets - low. We're looking at Grab as a possible play. Stay tuned for an article on that. Regarding Nigeria, may sound good on paper, but scary place to consider putting money. Vettifi shows one Nigera ETF with a whopping $11 million in AUM. Joe P.
@@Nanalyze thanks for the rapid response Joe. It's crazy how good you treat your audience. I'll keep that in mind and wait for further updates on emerging markets ;)

Poor analysis. Next 5 years Indian markets are supposed to get more than doubled. You are not factoring in the Modi phenomenon. Scams are all gone since India has surpassed the socialist scams. Also, quoting a propagandist like Ashoka Mody is like quoting Stalin on the US history.
@@NanalyzeYou are absolutely right with what you have presented. I am an Indian and this above comment is from a Modi propagandist. Ignore them. Indian stocks are over valued and the Warren Buffett indicator tells the real picture.

That's what we do with our DGI strategy, Quantigence. Regional ETFs/funds aren't a bad idea either, and we'll do some future pieces on those.
@@NanalyzeI got the idea from your video on CAT.

Yep that's an issue in most emerging markets unfortunately.
better perhaps to invest in brazil. indian stocks do not seem to be that cheap either.

You should watch the video which points to facts that lead us to believe it's not as rosy as it seems for both domestic and foreign investors.

Nice. I have been looking at India. People are talking it up as a long-term large market.
There is some appeal to the thesis, but the government needs to get the scam problem under control to attract more foreign investors.
They have been for a looooooong time.
But it's still just India
@jaykrizzle Indians gonna India
Stay away. It’s no different than china.
Thanks for sharing.
Could it be that Fairfax holding is a more interesting bet on India?
All the best.
