There are also many mutual funds that also invest in emerging economies.
look up the vanguard family. they have mutual funds for all situations...merging markets in all continents and countries
I have 2 Foreign Funds
JAOSX - Janus Overseas Fund
and
HLEMX - HARDING LOEVNER EMERGING MARKETS
Both are strong foriegn market investments.
Janus has netted me 25% since Sept 06 and Harding has done about 22%.
If you have a Schwab account, they are considered No-Load Funds which means there is no Broker fees as long as you don't sell in 90 days.
They both invest worldwide.
If you don't have an IRA, I strongly suggest Schwab. They are easy to use, provide consulting and have loads of helpful info.
Good luck
