Over the years I always had some foreign investment exposure in my 401K, until more recently when it was all primarily S&P 500 Index fund, supplemented with T. Rowe Price Growth, and some value fund exposure. Over the years, my largest gains were from some Emerging Markets funds I had like 15-20% in for several years. I have always held JP Morgan Chase, and as Warren Buffett has said many times, he thought Jamie Dimon's lengthy letter and analysis each year is one of the best if not the very best. Jamie Dimon would frequently flag periods where the most growth worldwide would be in the emerging markets. But in later years, I did not keep funds invested in emerging markets. But I can recall a number of years when my emerging markets funds outperformed everything else by huge percentage gains.
