Caro gugu,
Comeco pelo fim: podes fazer um hedge para cobrires o risco cambial. O principio, o comboio ja saiu da estacao ou nao? Bem, como as accoes que referes seguem a par e passo o VNIndex, respondo com
partes de um artigo que escrevi sobre o stock market local, para uma revista local, em Ingles. Aqui fica o principal:
RIDING THE BULL
Just about everyone is excited about Vietnamese investments these days. Foreign direct investment is at a record high since the country opened to investment in 1986. Real GDP annual growth averaged almost 8% since the early nineties despite the effects of the Asian crisis ten years ago. Private investment and private consumption are growing robustly too. The stock-market is particularly in high gear and the VNIndex, which tracks the prices of all of Vietnam’s publicly listed traded companies, jumped 144% last year, and has returned over 30% so far in 2007. It’s a bull market, and you are seated on it.
EMERGING MARKETS
Historical research shows that emerging markets like Vietnam are distinguished by, among other things, high returns, high volatility, and low covariance with global market factors. Emerging markets are therefore very attractive investments since they provide very large expected returns, with or without adjusting for systematic risk, and should be used for the aggressive portion of a well-diversified investment portfolio.
Examples of emerging markets exceptional returns are abundant. Several Asian countries make the top 10 of the
largest five-year stock price index increases since WWII:

Philippines 1,253%

Korea 518%

Taiwan 468%

Thailand 430%
THE RISKS
Special risks are associated with emerging markets investing, including political developments and economic stability. For example, the US and Western Europe countries have legal systems, effective rule of law, stable governance, and strong and steady economies. Buying a stock from a large corporation based in the U.S. or Europe is safer compared with Vietnam.
HOW TO
Select a well diversified portfolio of stocks and revaluate your strategy once a year only. Next, hedge your currency risk. Finally,
keep the money invested for at least five years.
