Is the iShares FTSE/Xinhua China 25 Index Fund finally breaking out ?
In my limited experience, Yes it is. I believe that the confluence of the $586 billion economic stimulus package, tax cuts and easing inflation is being reflected in the positive price action of FTSE/Xinhua China 25 Index Fund. Furthermore, China is going to spend money on low-cost housing, social welfare and rural infrastructure, in an effort to stimulate domestic spending, all positive signs for equity investors. Increasing volumes in the FXI signify increasing confidence from investors and I suspect that FXI is headed higher.
