I have noticed one thing in anything Ive done so far in life….People are into what could have, should have, etc…or why not? alot ask…I understand its anyones concern….In terms of etfs…I believe it’s a great key that all of us have to basically a global inv. world at the access of our finger tips…I find the most important thing is learning what is available, looking at positives and negatives, and when to buy and sell…Doesn’t that make sense? In front of us is a key(with proper knowledge) for investing through Global universe…One blink or snap doesnt make evrything arive….Give some time and gradually more and more will come…if all was here at once we would be unable to take advantage of everything at once….I hope some of you agree and keep your eyes posted on whats available today and yesturday….whatever is available tomorrow(new) we should be happy providing we can grab an advatage-

Wise investing-

It looks like we are getting closer on an new India ETF. While there are investment opportunities, it will be interesting to see how it all unfolds. Thanks for the updates!

The Powershares Tiger India ETF is on its way. However it contains just 18 companies, 12 of which are ADRs, while the rest are companies based in the US (Kanbay, Lionbridge, Covansys, iGATE, Syntel and Cognizant) who have significant offshore operations in India.

While I have nothing against IT consulting firms and have featured some of them in my newsletters (RCM Technologies, Wipro and Infosys), this index is very heavily weighted towards IT consulting firms.

We may just have to wait a little longer for a good India ETF listed on the US exchanges. Barring certain industries like defense and mining, the government has lifted restrictions in most other areas. As of September 2006, inflows from Foreign Institutional Investors into the Indian stock market was much higher than investments by domestic mutual funds.

Mr. Lydon,

Don’t forget the etfs recently listed on HK and Singapore exchanges, although they’re not true etfs in that they trade off notes. I wonder if India will take action against participatory notes, fun times.
