VANGUARD FTSE EMERGING MKTS ALL CAP IDX (VEE.TO)

On a longer-term basis, emerging markets are going to be an area that will continue to grow. It is the riskiest of all the classes. Vanguard’s are generally very inexpensive, and this is as good as any for tracking this particular market.

Our Canadian markets can be somewhat correlated to emerging markets. VEE-T gives you participation in the fast growing Chinese market. In other emerging market ETFs there could be North Korea because they are considers part of the emerging word by some providers. There is a tech leaning to this ETF.

(A Top Pick May 2/16. Up 30.06%.) The product that he talks about more than anything else. The single most recommended ETF in his practice. It gives broad exposure to emerging markets. If you want growth, you have to go where the world is growing, which is emerging markets.

The one thing he always tells people they should be looking at, because emerging markets are such an important part of where investors, who want some kind of growth, need to be.

This continues to surprise him on its upside. If you really believe in global economic growth over the next 2-3 years, and looking for something that has a little bit better valuation than this really hot US market, this is potentially where you could get a little higher yield and it is a pretty good macro economic backdrop in this space. Very low cost.

(A Top Pick May 2/16. Up 24%.) This is something that he recommends quite often. He is a big fan of emerging markets, and in his mind, this is the best single way to play it. It is a most broadly diversified and the lowest cost.

(He’s been telling people for years that they should be buying more emerging markets. Tonight, he is giving 3 different ways to play the same theme.) If there was only one way to play it, this would be the one that is the most diversified and the lowest cost.

(A Top Pick Feb 26/16. Up 28.42%.) Doesn’t think there is a single ETF he has recommended more on BNN than this one. He thinks about what you should buy and hold for a very long time. Emerging markets are under owned by Canadians. Most Canadians have too much money in Canada and they should be outside of Canada, and emerging markets are growing faster than any other part of the world, and are less strongly correlated than any other part of the world. Still a buy.

(A Top Pick Feb 26/16. Up 20.69%.) A market leader with broad diversification to emerging markets globally. People need more emerging markets in their portfolios.

Emerging markets are a very important part of the world. Their growth is strong. A really good way to get stocks and still be diversified.

If you like emerging markets, he thinks this is a great ETF to go with.

Feels people should be invested a) outside of Canada (emerging markets) and b) broad diversification with low costs.

Because of market risk he does not want a lot of exposure here right now. He would wait for a pullback rather than put new money here. South Korea is not included as an emerging market in this ETF. The BMO and iShares products includes South Korea.

(A brand new product.) He is a big believer in emerging markets, and this is probably the market leader in Canada for the emerging-market space. Lowest cost. Very broadly diversified and does a very good job of tracking. It will be above average volatility, but if you have a long-term time horizon, emerging markets is an area you should be looking at.

This has been flat year to date. He continues to like the space. Rio de Janeiro Olympics is creating a lot of buzz.
