Thailand now the #1 country weighting (12%) for Mark Mobius' Templeton Emerging Market Fund as of 10/31.

See November 19 Wall Street Journal, Asia section.

Brief excerpt:
"The hefty Thai weighting at Templeton, a unit of San Mateo, California-based Franklin Resources Inc., is in line with Mr. Mobius's famously contrarian views on emerging markets. Thailand's stock-market index is currently down more than 80% from its peak in December 1993 and the country faces an economic crunch from its fluctuating currency, which was floated in July."
