    ETFs: Implications of Goldman Sachs Predictions [view article]
    I agree that the world is developing but I still don't think America and Europe will not have periods of expansion. A lot of the emerging economies will experience thier growing pains of booms and busts and if you do not have an industry you are done. Reply

    To catch up with the US economy by any of the bric nation is a dream. There are lot more factors that contribute to the nation's economic development, like corruption, poverty, political stability, law enforcement, ease of doing business, clamping to terrorism, etc. The list goes on.
    Goldman may have Phd dudes in economic, so did those guys who came up with CDOs and exotic derivatives and lost billions of dollars.     Reply

    Agree totally with the comments, not the author, Mr. Tom Lydon.

    Pump and Dump was the name of the game in the 2000 crash. Goldman and Abby Cohn were a lot to blame for that and they are doing the same again with the BRIC group. That is all they could say in 1999, 'stocks are going higher, because they have been going higher'.

    The author should look at the 200 day moving average of all these countries and factor in a global recession before jumping on the bandwagon. A reality check is in order.

    "Goldman Sachs’ economic team recently pulled out their crystal ball to come up with a new world order for the year 2040"

    Just because all of the stocks he mentined have gone down a lot does not mean they can't go down much lower!

    Goldman and the author will be right one day, but in my judgment, the long climb back up the mountain will start from way down deep in the valley, after lingering near the graves of failed companies for several years.     Reply

    Goldman analysts all have PhD's in Pumping and Dumping. They are academics caught-up in the whirlwind of a tremendous surprise in expectations from these disorganized and often corrupt 3rd world nations and their ability to produce and export as much as they are/have. The same psychology that pumped and dumped the Internet and caused the housing bubble is the same psychology driving the FDI into these DC3 (disorganized & corrupt 3rd world) nations. Reply

    A new acronym for some of these countries, following the success of BRICs could be "PIVOT".. "Philippines - Indonesia - Vietnam - Oil OPEC countries - Turkey". Reply

    Screening ETFs By P/E Ratio is of Little Value to Investors [view article]
    Thanks for that discussion & pointer to Yahoo's P/E information.

    You argue that P/E values of ETF's are not an assurance of continued future growth as if that is something unique to ETF's. But the same lack of assurance applies to individual stocks - P/E's are useful as just one of the indicators one should look at. What is the difference?     Reply

    Update: We've added Roger Nusbaum's short article "Explore More Core" ( seekingalpha.com/artic... ) to the Further Reading section.

    It's short, and asks more questions than it answers, but it touches on a crucial issue: Should you build a portfolio with an All World ETF as the core, supplemented by perhaps one other instrument?     Reply
