I know that a lot of the some of the old timers here still want to focus on BRK which
I’ve always appreciated in the past, but I no longer believe the individuals in power have
a rational perspective of the economy nor even science. It’s painful, but at this point I feel
it’s more rational to consider other countries to hopefully just temporarily invest in.
Perhaps we need an international investing board. Maybe Jim could help us out there.
Meanwhile here are some of the ETFs I’ve been looking at.
VGK Europe Equities- Vanguard FTSE Europe ETF YTD 22.8%, 1Y 15.1%, 3Yr 14.34%
IEFA International Equities-iShares Core MSCI EAFE ETF YTD 17.4%, 1Y 13%, 3Yr 10.35%
EFV iShares MSCI EAFE Value ETF YTD 22.2%, 1Yr 20.9%, 3Yr 15%
IEMG iShares Core MSCI Emerging Markets ETF Ytd 12.8%, 1Yr 14.8%, 3 Yr 7.6%
The strong recent performance might seem to indicate that there is some movement from US to foreign equities.
