How many % of Australia are in that fund? How many % of that fund do you want to hv in yr portfolio? Then calculate to see how many % of Australia will be in yr portfolio......is it meaningful & effective for migtigation & diversification?
Not necessary to hv to get ALL missed out countries in yr portfolio filled up
That is just my thought...

ex,....
4.3% of Australia in that fund
10% of that fund in the portfolio
0.43% of Australia in the portfolio

maybe it is because of this....??
Trump in his address to a joint session of Congress offered little detail about planned tax cuts or new infrastructure spending beyond the broad strokes he offered during the election campaign.

Trump's big speech:
President Trump delivered his first speech to Congress on Tuesday, striking a more statesman-like tone.
Still, there was little detail on policy.
"A politically interesting, but economically dull speech," said Kathleen Brooks, research director at City Index Direct.

"He offered just enough to keep bulls happy," Accendo Markets analysts wrote in a note to clients.

not only confusing the noob...me too.
for i am one of the noob too...

sure use their original names as much as possible...else, the nick name list become too long, thus have to refer to the lists very frequently.

Tis may not work....cos if thst fund stayed in red for a year....then that intended allocation for that fund maybe unintentionally over allocated after a year....which maybe over your comfort zone

just don't forget to have a thought of how much % of allocation you want it to be in your portfolio.

this was from FSM recently....

Last year, Asian REITs ended the year on a joyful note as investors around the globe were on the hunt for yields under a low interest rate environment.
Moving into 2017, however, concerns are pouring in for REITs investors as the US economy continues to deliver positive data that are fueling the possibilities of a faster than expected rate hike.
In this Idea of the Week, we will look into two areas investors should look out for when investing in Asian REITs.

What is a 'Correction'
A correction is a reverse movement, usually negative, of at least 10% in a stock, bond, commodity or index to adjust for an overvaluation. Corrections are generally temporary price declines interrupting an uptrend in the market or an asset. A correction has a shorter duration than a bear market or a recession, but it can be a precursor to either.
