Morgan Stanley's Emerging Markets Index is down only 0.8% year to date vs. the Standard & Poor's 500-stock index's 12.2% decline, and investors are hopping aboard.rnFrom Mar. 18-25, emerging-market mutual funds amassed $2.3 billion in new investments-the biggest one-week haul since mid-December, according to EPFR Global. With funds in Morningstar's emerging-market category up an average 11.2% over the past month, should you jump in? Morningstar analyst Bill Rocco notes that "one reason they've done better this year is because they did worse earlier in the global meltdown"-not the best argument for sustainablerngains. Peru and China lead the pack, gaining more than 25% this year. Betting on country or regional plays is particularly risky in today's unsettled markets, however, so Rocco recommends well-diversified funds like American Funds New World A, and that investors have a 10 - to 15 -year time horizon.
