If I may comment on MAKOX, which I own, I would say that John Templeton's choosing it as a vehicle for investing in Korea means that it is probably the most economical way of holding a diversified portfolio of Korean stocks. Templeton could easily have bought stocks directly himself if that were the better way to do it.

My information has come from reading all posts and following all links from the following threads (in addition to the usual information sources): messages.yahoo.com@m2.yahoo.com&board=yahoo.0c.10.7083987&topicid=0m2&type=date&next=15 192.41.8.196 Subject 14978 Let's share information we find, privately if you feel that's better. I'd like to learn whatever you're able to pick up. best, peter
