Frontier and emerging markets

The IMF expects Mongolia to be the fastest-growing economy in the world over the next decade.

We can see some funds are flowing into frontier markets such as Sri-Lanka, Qatar, Nigeria and Bangladesh. Pakistan market became one of the best markets in the world in 2013 and still it has a leg. Vietnam and UAE market too did well in 2013. On the other hand we didn't see any meaningful rally in both Sri-Lankan and Bangladesh markets in 2013 except in few selected stocks. One positive factor in Sri-Lankan market is their interest rates are falling. As a result of this their stocks are more attractive than bonds and treasury bills now. Still I am learning about some markets.

According to following link Milford Fund is more excited about Frontier markets. It is very interesting.

Dubai was one of the world's best-performing markets. The UAE and Qatar are now trading at a 40 percent premium to emerging markets in general, compared with a 50 percent discount a couple of years ago. Foreign investors have already started to decrease their exposure to these overvalued markets. Inflows appear to be continuing in the other frontier markets now. Indian market too could have correction during next 18 months or so. Bull markets are moving one place to another gradually. Similarly market corrections are moving from one place to another. Still there are opportunities in undervalued global markets and markets which are trading discounts to overvalued markets.
