The iShares MSCI Mexico Index (EWW) is up over 18% YTD.

The Big Charts one-year chart below shows iShares MSCI Mexico ETF (the black line outlines the daily prices) and the 200-day moving average (the orange line highlights the trend line). As you can see, EWW is above the trend line, thus in an uptrend (and has been for the past year), indicating that it is a time to be invested in the ETF.
