The iShares S&P Latin America 40 Index ETF (ILF) is composed of 40 Latin American stocks. It's up 17.62% YTD as of May 12, 2007.
This portfolio tracks the ILF and the major stocks that it holds. I want to figure out whether to own ILF or some of its components.
The percentages are based on ILF holdings as of 4/30/2007. The heavyweight countries are Brazil, Mexico, and Chile.
