Each Thursday on Chuck Jaffee’s The MoneyLife Radio Program podcast a segment by Tom Lydon editor of ETF Trends is featured. Mr. Lydon presents the ETF of the week. On 25 Aug he featured FXI, Ishares China Large Cap ETF. This ETF has not down well but seems to be in an up trend now. Mr. Lydon suggests you can hold it forever or use the 200 day moving average to decide when to sell. The current price is 36.93 and the 200 day moving average is 33.51.
