Chile getting cold - ECH

Chile is having economic problems and that is reflected in the MSCI Chile ETF (ECH).  If its not already on your watch lists it should be.


The iShares MSCI Chile Investable Market Index Fund (the "Fund") seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the MSCI Chile Investable Market Index (the "Underlying Index"). The Underlying Index is a free float- adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure broad based equity market performance in Chile. The Underlying Index consists of stocks traded primarily on the Santiago Stock Exchange. As of September 30, 2009, the Underlying Index's three largest sectors were utilities, materials and industrials. The Fund will at all times invest at least 90% of its assets in the securities of the Underlying Index or in depositary receipts representing securities in its Underlying Index.
