New highs nearly every day now. I also hold VOF and VEIL but this has been outperforming them for a long time now.
Maybe when more unlisted companies start to float they will catch up with XFVT. KT.

Vietnam market down 5%. Thought it might of been worse, but supose its not over yet until US market decides what it going to do.

Picked up a lot more of these today. Really over weight in Vietnam now, just waiting for the day when they go from frontier market to emerging market.
Think the futures really bright for Vietnam. KT.

Bought a load of these at the start of the year to go with my holding of VOF.

This tracks the Vietnam stock market closely where as VOF has more holdings in unlisted companies.

Last year the Vietnam stock market was up about 50% as was XFVT. VOF was only up by about 25% because of the unlisted companies and cash holdings.

VOF will come into its own when these companies start to float ie it holds about 9% in the Vietnam Airports group which if its floats will be more positive on VOF than XFVT.

To say which one is best is like tossing a coin. Probably best to hold both, just my view KT.

Three currency devaluations since last November, weak economy spells weak currency, lack of inward investment, inflation, fear of hyper inflation, but that said a country with much promise over the next 20 years. Somebody has to pick up the crumbs from China as it moves up the manufacturing ladder. VOF picking up slightly lately which should be a yard stick. My company trades a little with VNam and my daughter is out there now. Watch out for explosion in tourism out there. A little investment focuses the mind particularly on currency plays.DYOR

yes i see your post, i dont hold, sold in june, small profit if memory serves me. Im shocked how bad its doing since.

Why do you think that is turbomouth?

Just started to accumulate. Have been wanting to buy into this market for a long time. With a weaker dollar and a recent devaluation of the dong now seems to be a good time to start. Anybody out there?
