Geldanlage: Nach dem Kurseinbruch: Drei Schwellenländer-ETFs mit einem niedrigeren Südkorea-Anteil
Südkoreas Aktienmarkt ist in diesem Jahr bisher sogar volatiler als der Bitcoin, macht aber ein Fünftel vieler Schwellenländer-ETFs aus. Das Handelsblatt stellt drei Alternativen vor.
Frankfurt – The recent drop in South Korean stock prices has put a halt to the rally of emerging market stocks this year. While the MSCI Emerging Markets Index is still up about 24% year-to-date when calculated in euros, it has lost 7% since hitting its peak at the end of June. This decline is largely due to South Korea. The emerging market index, which is reflected in numerous exchange-traded index funds (ETFs), primarily includes Korean stocks – making up a fifth of the index.
These Korean stocks have experienced significant price fluctuations over the past months, with the Korean benchmark index, the Kospi, proving to be even more volatile than the wildly fluctuating cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, according to Bloomberg financial data. For investors looking to reduce their exposure to this volatile and concentrated South Korean market when investing in emerging markets, alternatives are available.
The Handelsblatt magazine highlights three examples of Emerging Markets ETFs with a low South Korean allocation, and illustrates how the individual products differ.
