Benchmark MSCI Emerging Markets Free Index. Material Events The MSCI Emerging Markets Index closed a volatile quarter with a gain of 14.5% in US dollars. Most of the gains came in September, which returned 11.1% in a spectacular recovery from the v-shaped dip in August. The upward pressure came mainly from the largest markets, Brazil, China and India, which each rose more than 16%. It was also a very strong month for share prices in the materials and energy sectors, which rose by a similar amount as commodity prices rebounded. An eye-popping month indeed, with the oil price reaching record levels and gold soaring to a 28-year high after the Fed funds rate cut. The strain of fast growth is starting to show in China, as inflation rose to an eleven-year high of 6.5% in August. The central bank raised interest rates for the fifth time this year - although it was careful to leave savings deposits unchanged for fear of attracting more capital inflows. However, it would be wrong to overstate the inflation risk, as it seems the emerging markets as a whole are managing to sustain a fast, but relatively stable, pace of growth. In the current global environment it seems this combination is particularly attractive. Indeed, given the turmoil elsewhere, emerging markets have been a haven of stability. This may explain why, by the end of September, trailing valuations as measured by the MSCI EM Index were at a 10% premium to the MSCI World Index. Of course China - now the largest market in the MSCI EM Index - is a good part of that. For latest NAV and share price information please refer to the trust's website, www.giml.co.uk.
