ILF is a concentrated bet on the Latin American market, with a portfolio comprised of just 40 names and a heavy concentration among the top 10 holdings. The stocks included in this vanilla fund are hand-picked by an index committee from blue-chip companies trading in Brazil, Chil, Colombia, Mexico and Peru. The fund's sector and country bets are minimal and overall, ILF provides comprehensive, neutral exposure to large-caps in emerging Latin American markets. Additionally, instead of replicating the index, ILF uses representative sampling indexing. The index is weighted by float-adjusted market cap and rebalanced on a quarterly basis. However, there is no annual or semi-annual reconstitution, as this is done on an as-needed basis.

ILF Latam not ready to break out....yetLatam, much like the rest of EM, does not seem ready to break out yet and has failed to break the downtrend in place since '08. However, the up leg from March '20 to Jun '21 seem to be and impulse wave of what could be Wave I or the beginings of a spectacular rally in the years to come if a new comm
Latin America 40 to the rescue?! A look at ILF.I'm scouring planet Tradingview to look for bullish signs. Let me tell you, it hasn't been easy. So I wandered out of the country to see if the rest of the world is doing as poorly as our domestic markets in the U.S. appear to be. Alas, I present you with ILF, the iShares Latin America 40. It's
Latin America - the multiyear perspectiveJust by chance, the Latin America ETF (ILF) was noted to be doing very well this week as the S&P500 and friends are given a beating. In a bigger picture perspective, a descending triangle has been formed in the last 12 years. While the upside to resistance may be smaller than previously, it is also
Latin American Equities Relative To The S&P 500Chart 1: Latin American Equities relative to the S&P500: Attempting to arrest a multi-year decline as it builds a small base neat the Oct-2001 & 2002 swing lows.
Latam has lagged big-time, so could be a place to dig for opportunities over the next few years.
