About this title

Review:

Somewhat sophisticated investors looking to further develop their understanding of emerging markets should get hold of Profiting from Emerging Market Stocks. Like other books on the subject, this one covers the basics of mutual funds and American Depository Receipts. But author Mitchell Posner also provides an in-depth portrait of the economic and political dynamics that drive emerging markets, making them both wondrous and terrifying. Why did a financial crisis suddenly befall Mexico in 1994? Why did Thailand succumb last year and Indonesia this year? Few writers have explained the forces at work so clearly as Posner does in his discussion of capital flows around the world. He is excellent, too, on the closely related ebb and flow of currency markets, which can erode stock-market gains or enhance them. His book would be useful not only for investors, but also for anyone hoping to understand our turbulent global economy. --Barry Mitzman
