HOORAY!!!!!

Jim you are the first person to say any thing about Asian funds.
My wife's IRA is about 35% in Price New Asia. She has been pestering me to sell for the last year. Started buying $100 a month about 2 years ago at 8 and watched it ride up to about 9.50. We've watched it slide down to it's present levels (under 4). So now we will see if dollar cost averageing really works.

IMHO there is too much talent and wealth in Hong Kong, Singapore and Malaysia for Asian markets to stay down. I hope to see Asia as a hot market in aabout a year or 2. tombet

One idea I had recently was to concentrate on the emerging market countries next to wealthy country/countries(US, Western Europe), hoping some of the wealth would rub off(trade, travel, manufactoring....). I wonder what kind of valuations does each region hold now after the tumble(P/E, Price/Book.....).
