Hi Clive, The non-U.S. Exchange Traded Funds continued to do very well and act as a very good hedge against the weakening U.S. Dollar.
While the examples I maintain showed potential sales in three of the components, two had adequate AIM cash reserves. So we show a sale in only one - EWW, Mexico. Here's what the overall composite of the theoretical account looks like as of the end of its second anniversary:
That opportunistic buying done mid-year looks quite astute now. The average return excluding dividends and interest is nicely into double digits on a yearly basis. 27% two year gain is quite nice considering that the account's averaged only about 60+% market exposure for the period.
