    How can Saudi Arabia have more than double the US inflation rate if their currency is pegged to the USD? Reply

    How does Japan have such low inflation especially given that its currency is so weak and interest rates are barely above zero? Reply

    A lot of this depends on the health of your currency. If your country's currency gains in value -- as it did here in Canada last year -- then it makes everything imported cheaper to buy. Of course if your dollar is dropping like a stone -- such as in the USA -- then things get a lot more expensive to buy. Reply

    What you fail to mention is the method that was used to compute these inflation figures, do the other countries deduct fuel and food? Reply

    Indicating wether the currency factor was local or converted back to dollars would be helpful. Otherwise, put it all in Zimbabwe for mega returns....ex currency mises.org/story/2532 Reply

    You should also add the currency depreciation/appreciat... into the chart. Compare index returns without that is meaningless. You will reconsider South Africa market as a winner if you look at the dismal performance of its currency as of late. Reply

    Trading Russia/Brazil is the same as trading commodities.
    If commodities carry on their rise or stabilise then Brussia is the way foreward. You start getting a drop in oil etc, then China is the market to be in.

    Shortly we will start to see PE ratios in the region of 13-15 in some stocks in China. That suggest that China will improve its dismal performace, we just need the market to capitluate.

    Interesting. Makes you think if there are any "Brussia" ETFs .. that is BRIC without China or India .. ;) Reply

    Six Ways to Trade Foreign Currencies [view article]
    Thank you Ray for the very informative analysis and your comment about tax implications.

    I learned this the hard way - I held DBV and DBA in a taxable account for a short period in 2007 and sold for no gain. At the end of the year I got a K-1 form which was difficult for me to report correctly and the worst of it was I was allocated and taxed for earnings that I did not make. Very frustrating. I will not touch these future-based funds again and from your comment I gather that this is a problem with all ETNs. Buyer beware.

    As per your comment the Rydex/Wisdom Tree ETFs seem better, the interest will be taxed as regular income but at list I will only be taxed for money I actually receive and will not need to deal with a K-1 form.
