Taiwan and Korea lose $29 billion in July: is money rotating away from AI?
Foreign investors continued pulling money from Asian equities in July, but the headline outflow masks a striking shift underneath: capital moved away from the region's biggest AI winners while selectively returning to markets with less dependence on the semiconductor boom. Investors sold a net $25.48 billion of shares across seven major Asian markets during the month, extending the region's foreign-selling streak to nine months.
EIDO: Indonesia Not Benefiting From Commodity Price Gains
I hold a neutral stance on the iShares MSCI Indonesia ETF, citing low valuation but persistent weak price action and a technical downtrend. EIDO trades at a bargain 8.7x P/E, but its 44% financials weighting and low 5.9% long-term EPS growth limit upside. Seasonality favors EIDO in July and August, yet resistance near $17 and heavy volume overhead constrain rally potential.

EIDO: Hasn't Been Flourishing, But There's Potential For A Change
The iShares MSCI Indonesia ETF has only gained 2% this year and has grossly underperformed global and EM peers. Indonesian banks, comprising over 40% of EIDO, have faced sluggish loan growth, although stable NIMs in a dovish monetary setting reflect well. Recent government stimulus to the tune of $1B could lift Q4 GDP and 2026 prospects, while further rate cuts are expected from this month through Q1-26.

EIDO: This Indonesian ETF Is A Very Poor Choice For Long-Term Oriented Investors
EIDO provides easy access to Indonesian equities, but is a poor proxy for the broader economy and its growth potential. The ETF is heavily concentrated in a few big names in slow-growth sectors, limiting upside and increasing risk. While Indonesia's economy has strengths, EIDO's sector composition doesn't capture the country's most dynamic opportunities.
EIDO: Indonesia Poised To Bounce Back
Southeast Asian markets, particularly Indonesia, have struggled, but EIDO is a "BUY" due to a weakening dollar, falling valuations, and potential growth bottoming. EIDO's expense ratio is lower than IDX, and it offers a purer play on Indonesian equities, with financials making up nearly half its holdings. Global trade tensions and a declining US dollar could benefit emerging markets like Indonesia, making it well-placed for short- to medium-term gains.
