I always don't understand the fear of the risks of EM. I would also keep my hands off individual shares from certain regions. But with an ETF of about 2000 shares from different countries, I am less worried. At least with an investment horizon of about 30 years. With 10 years or less, I would not want to risk it either. I always invest in the EM only anti-cyclically. Just this offers it simply thanks to the regional and political problems very well. Whenever it is at least 10% away from the ATH, I start to invest monthly in tranches. If it then runs well, money is accumulated for the next purchase phase. Of course, I do not want to encourage anyone to do so. Everyone should invest in such a way that he can sleep peacefully. But I see it simply as unlikely that the EM 20 or 30 years sink or run sideways. Quite the opposite even. I believe that at some point the fuse will light and there will be a proper boost.

@Banana_Millionaire I don't expect a catastrophe, but I do see more development potential in the industrialized countries. The reason is quite simple: the gap between rich and poor is widening. Of course, the EMs are still developing positively because they are developing further, but I assume that, with the exception of China, they will not be able to compensate for their technological backlog. In the end, I see it like riding a bicycle: just because you are riding behind in the slipstream, you are neither faster, nor can you overtake without further ado. I only see a greater risk but no greater opportunity for return, at least not in index width, which is why they are out of the question for me ...
