- Abstract
In recent years, the Pacific Rim has been the fastest growing region from around the world. The rapid development of the region's economies leads to significant increases in the demand for capital, which in turn, facilitates the deregulation and liberalization of financial markets in this region. This increasing availability of information and openness has led to an increasing level of interest by US investors. Has such interest and investment been rewarding? This paper examines the characteristics and performance of selected mutual funds that concentrate their investment in the stocks of Pacific Rim countries. We examine performance in 2006 before the global financial meltdown. Data and analysis are obtained through Bloomberg's Morningstar Mutual Funds online universe. Bloomberg provides 24-hour, instant and current financial, economic and political information covering markets around the globe. It also provides analytics, historical data, up-to-minute news reports, economic statistics and political commentaries. Constant upgrades and enhancements of the system are some of the most valuable attributes of the Bloomberg service.
