You may want to wait till the market bottoms out. It's been dropping like a rock lately.

I originally wanted to invest in Korean companies. Living here for a few months quickly fixed that.

South Korea's benchmark stock index is already under pressure from weakening economic growth and fears of mounting stagflation. The index fell 0.5 percent as foreign investors sold a net 166 billion won ($159 million) worth of stocks on Tuesday, the 17th straight day of net selling.

^^^^^^^^^^^^

17 straight losses sounds like a hell of a good time to buy in. Anyone have some info for some good Korean mutual funds?

Foreigners are dumping Korean stocks. The won is one of the weakest of the 16 Asian currencies.

You want to buy into that?

Anyone who has to ask others for advice shouldn't be in the market.
