    How to invest in North Korean denuclearization

    Kim Jong Un’s armored train has already arrived in Hanoi, Vietnam, for the second summit between the United States and North Korea, which commences Wednesday. This is important as the seeds have been sown for the opening of North Korea and the possible start of a new investment cycle in the hermit state that promises to bring long-overdue peace to the Korean peninsula. Credit needs to be given to President Trump for negotiating directly with Kim Jong Un, as previous Democratic and Republican presidents have been unwilling to engage the North Koreans in such a direct way.

    Asia ETFs Could Indirectly Benefit from U.S., China Trade War

    As the U.S. and China duke it out over the ongoing trade war disputes, other Asian economies and country-specific ETFs could benefit from the side. Some researchers argue that countries exporting similar products that compete with China could end up as beneficiaries in the trade war between the U.S. and China, the Wall Street Journal reports. For example, Bank of America Merrill Lynch economists predict Taiwan, Vietnam and South Korea have the most to gain, given the countries' similar export profiles to China.

    Asian Stocks: 4 Great Funds for a Far East Surge

    We've all heard that diversification is good for a portfolio. Considering that the U.S. stock market is at record highs, and stocks are about as pricey as they get, investors may want to consider spreading around some of their risk. And Asian stocks might be the best place in the world for that right now. If you want to diversify outside the U.S. market, there's a problem: Most major markets don't look any safer than the U.S. Europe has been underperforming for literally years with no real sign of reversing that trend. Latin America has plenty of problems, not the least of which is the implosion of the Argentinian economy. Africa is a hotbed of unstable stock markets and geopolitical unrest. Fortunately, there are some opportunities in Asia - through domestically traded exchange-traded funds (ETFs) - where local markets are either holding firm or turning the corner into bull markets. Here's a look at four funds to buy to get exposure to Asian stocks and defray your risk a bit. SEE ALSO: Emerging-Markets Stocks: 10 Ways to Play the Next Bull Market
