The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed almost 300 points higher on hopes that U.S. President Donald Trump will delay tariffs on Mexico as both sides try to hash out their differences on immigration issues. This could put certain Latin American exchange-traded funds in play for traders looking for a side to play on this latest news. After a deal with China went under, the Trump administration turned their attention to Mexico in the latest tariff wars by announcing a 5 percent tariff on all Mexican imports, which will begin on June 10.

Latest U.S. Tariffs on Mexico Just Put These ETFs Into Play
While the majority of May was focused on the U.S.-China trade war, June brings a new opponent to the tariff-for-tariff battle in Mexico, and this paves the way for Mexico-specific and Latin America-focused exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in play. U.S. President Donald Trump turned his attention to Mexico in the latest tariff wars by announcing a 5 percent tariff on all Mexican imports, which will begin on June 10.

Simply selecting a country-specific ETF in emerging markets without the proper research could be akin to catching a falling knife and as such, investors must use caution. While it may be enticing to see the red and buy into the dip, instabilities in certain countries’ financial systems could still leave these markets depressed, and as such, investors should shy away from these parts of the world.
