Question what is your current opinion about "fxi"
thanks
Answer I like iShares and exchanged traded funds in general, so any reservations I have about FXI is the underlying index it tracks; the FTSE China 25. Investing in a concentrated index such as this will carry a higher degree of risk and more volatility than a more broadly diversified index. This is neither good nor bad as it depends on your specific risk tolerance. If you are willing to accept this risk and want to invest in Chinese related stocks, then I think FXI is a good way to capture this. I hope this helps.
