iShares Asia Region ETFs Weekly and YTD Returns

Hey Steven,
I'm not familiar with the differences between the S. Korea ETF and the Korea Fund CEF (KF), but KF was the 2nd best returning CEF/ETF on the week with 9%, including 3% alone on Friday. Do you think this was more likely a CEF valuation problem or a difference in held assets?

Global Market Performance: Most Countries At Top of Trading Ranges

Speaking of bollinger bands, the respective MSCI Index ETFs for Brazil (as well as Malaysia, Singapore, and Mexico) have all reversed trend and are now below their 50-session lower bands.

Do you think this is just nervous behavior on illiquid and sensitive ETFs (for EWM and EWS at least), or is this perhaps representative of a correction to come in the week ahead (FOMC dynamics aside)?
