    Personally, I think you should be in most markets, be they developed, developing, emerging, frontier, or whatever. But it's pretty difficult to pick which particular geography, so I do it by ETF against the appropriate index.

    The less developed the market, the lower the proportion of the portfolio that goes there. So there's a core of developed markets, orbited by various satellites. Along with some other satellites by sector, such as energy or biotech funds.

    Everything goes belly up at some point, but it's best if you can structure things so That they don't all clap out together.

    Yes. I agree with you. Intelligent investors and funds invest not only in developed market but also in emerging markets and frontiers markets. Globally even we had opportunities in markets such as Pakistan and Argentina. They were out of favour markets in the past and later they became two of the best performing markets in the world. No it is not difficult to select particular geography provided we do some home work. Latest additions to current bull markets are emerging market China and frontier markets such as Bangladesh and Sri-Lanka. These three have more rooms to appreciate their stock markets.

    My ideas are not a recommendation to either buy or sell any security, commodity or currency. Please do your own research prior to making any investment decisions.

    Thank you for the link. It is time to stay away from bubble stocks and bubble property markets and it is time to find undervalued stocks, commodities and other assets globally (including emerging and frontier markets).
