Peter,
"In general, however, the premiums on Asian closed-end funds have declined markedly since last fall, and there are some fairly attractive deals now, particularly in India and Taiwan."
I think we should wait for discounts, and then a flat line for awhile before jumping in. This isn't going to be like 1987 in the US. This is going to be more like Japan of '89, IMO.

Best,
Sam

Thread:

I just watched the rupiah:dollar ratio go from 13050:1 down to 12100:1 in less than 15 minutes.

Bloomberg Quotes - perhaps inaccurate.

Oops. It's 3 minutes later, now. 12500:1
