SSNLF,Korean Stocks. Yeah, I'd like to see that too. Might reduce my dismay at what I perceive has been the one-sided nature of Korea/USA trade. I found it very difficult to buy small amounts of Korean stocks -- the fees or expenses that had to be paid to the Korean intermediary broker and/or exchange just prevented a buy. Symptomatic imo of Korean protectionism vs. USA more open market, which the Koreans fully take advantage of. Haven't looked lately, maybe things have changed. I'll be surprised. Until then, I hold the opinion that the only practical option for the USA retail investor is to buy Korean stocks through a fund. ============================== Imo to take advantage of what seems to be consumers' desires for many Korean products, the best thing I found that I liked was EWY, which I bought and still hold and still like (unless N. Korea sabre rattles) Message 25825703 I don't know the current holdings of EWY. Yahoo though shows that EWY's #1 position at 16.3% of assets is SSNLF. finance.yahoo.com
