I'm looking forward to the new releases myself !

At present I have the Pathfinder Water because its hard to get any exposure like that through specific stocks.

For you though I'd go, continue with the US500 but stagger purchases until there has been a bad month or two. so now is not too bad a time to start dribbling funds in. As an alternative or when you have enough to diversify try the AMP Capital Global Shares as well. Those two seem to be the core for an int'l exposure.

NZ and Australia later I reckon, and then Emerging Markets.
