My EEM puts are currently my best performer.
I get why CSPs on big ETFs feel capital-heavy, but smaller, liquid ETFs like IWM, EEM, or QQQ mini options can still offer premium. Focus on volume & spreads, not just size
Good news: made bank on EEM puts and NEXT calls Bad news: my retirement account got fisted and I lost even more
Up bigly today thanks to NEXT calls and EEM puts. At least with this shit show there are obvious plays to make money on.
Got a little over $1000 back from taxes. Slamming the puts button on XLB and EEM tomorrow at open. Both are non stop drilling.
Calls: EQNR, FANG, XLE Puts: EEM, VXUS, HYG Stop stop stop buying msft calls and the like for the love of god.
What are some of the more non-WSB shorts you have made for this? Me, EEM emerging markets going to get fucked by these gas prices.
I’m i’m 70 and I trade Stocks and Options for living. I and I have made many mistakes like that as well. My advice is don’t sweat it you may benefit from your mistake. It’s not the end of the world. Live and learn. Most my gains have come from dollar cost, averaging into S&P 500 funds like VOO, JEPI and some international funds like FEZ , EEM. Every month I buy a few shares of each fund.
While the [West](https://www.reddit.com/r/Indiana/comments/1nqa72x/indianapolis_residents_have_shut_down_a_proposed/) [rallies](https://www.reddit.com/r/Syracuse/comments/1or5w3c/micron_chip_factories_in_upstate_ny_will_be/) [against](https://www.reddit.com/r/AskEurope/comments/1r63k0h/how_do_europeans_feel_about_the_data_center/) building more advanced infrastructure and getting highly-paid jobs, India and the developing world receive them with open arms. Short $SPY and $IEUR. Long $EEM, $INDA, $EWZ
Before the new year it was easy: VGT/GLD/VYMI (36/36/24%). Since the new year: VGT/HDV/EEM/GLD/VYMI (24/8/4/36/24%)
I am in EWY, EWZ, EEM. July calls Saw EPU (Peru) is actually as good as Korea. Then EWP, EPOL, even EWC, and many different Es are rocketing up, new ATH daily.
VYMI up. EEM up. HDV up. Lots of good things this year!
I see no evidence that Trump understands economics or the nuances of trade policies. Listening to Howard Lutnick months ago, explaining how tariffs are going to reduce the debt of the country and we’re all going to benefit was a joke. He lied about Epstein and he’s lying about tariffs. Like others on here I’m diversifying out of the S&P 500 . I’m buying more SLV, and mining stocks. Also international funds like FEZ, EEM, VXUS every fund I look at is kicking the ass of the US index funds.
$EEM has basically become East Asian AI play, it's a great diversifier to $SPY $EWJ has lots of industrials that will likely benefit from the reindustrialization wave in the West $EWZ is Latin America + commodities, another diversifier for the above East Asia and U.S.
Friendly reminder SPY -0.5% ytd; EEM +9%
I bought EWY, EWZ, EEM calls at start of the year. Freakin' EWZ is up 21%, my calls are big chilling atm, may rotate them into FEZ (Europe) or EWJ (Japan) if a bear thesis on Brazil gets louder.
Anyone else in EEM (Emerging markets etf)? Seems like a strong play, plus you get exposure to TSM and Samsung
You can throw VT and EEM in therr
Oh, and if you want to add a little risk, a small EEM could be worthwhile.
Friendly reminder: SPY up .66% YTD; EEM up 7.5%
SPY down, VXUS flat, EEM up
MUFG hasn't transformed yet. But it will. Majority owner of MSCI, and look at how hard MSCI, EEM indexes and MS are popping up.
TA > FA. Stocks that are breaking out from bases at least 1Y long. $XLE and related energy stocks look good. As do banks like $JPM and $BAC. I prefer emerging markets though like $EEM, $VALE and $CIB, as well as $BABA. I'm intentionally underinvested in U.S. equities. Commodities also look good, from nickel to lithium to copper to gold and silver to rare earth minerals.
I have VEA, IEFA, SFNNX, EEM,VWO, LXEMX, HAINX, and PIVYX in various accounts. 🤣. Bought at various times in a few different accounts. I like IEMG/VEA. Part of me thinks active managed funds could be able to beat the indexes in international and small cap markets for a while though. There are a lot of sleepy companies.
Good idea IMO. Schwab Fundamental International Equity Fund SFNNX is an active fund that’s well managed and has outpaced the developed mkt index ETFs. But ETFs are usually my rec. IEFA or VEA are two developed mkt ETF’s with the main difference being IEFA includes South Korea and Canada, VEA doesn’t. EEM and VWO are emerging market ETFs. You do get China at 25-30% of these which hurt them until mid ‘24, but strong since. There are also active emerging market funds like LZEMX and there’s a good case for active in these markets. International markets have been outperforming the US recently but still avg ~35% lower on forward PE so there’s room to continue, and strong cash flows into these ETFs continue into 2026. They have good yields as well - around 3% for the developed mkt funds. Finally - the weakening dollar and the “sell America” trade help near term performance. Diversification away from the Mag 7 and US only portfolios is just good risk management.

Best port is VGT, GLD, VYMI, EEM at 36/36/24/4.

Im still playing MU myself. EEM has sk hynix and Samsung, the other 2 memory giants in it. But it has China exposure if you dont like that. EWY has only korean exposure. And there's a smaller company called Everspin (MRAM) that does the toughest memory that can survive space, pressure, and radiation. If we get more space aged, they'll need that. I'm still researching it but it's interesting. Only $15 rn
$EEM and other emerging markets like Brazil, copper, energy, $CVX and $XOM, physical gold and silver, lithium and nickel, even $MOO looks great. So much stuff looks great I don't have anywhere near enough capital to get all I like. And lots of China like $BABA
If you haven’t gotten the message yet: US companies are out. International is in. EEM and VXUS: +7% YTD SPY: +1.3% YTD QQQ: +1.6% YTD
I got laughed at here for going big into EEM last year (“everything except ‘Merica). Up close to 30% vs 16ish for SPY
Debasement narrative makes it hard to trust puts Buy calls on EEM, IEFA, ILF, VEA etc etc
ILF, EWY, EEM is what I’m currently playing. I would say just look for the ones with the solid returns (duh) but the options chain also has high volume otherwise you’re gonna get fucked by the bid/ask spread when you roll or cash out
Maybe EEM short puts can be a good low cost option. I currently have a EEM diagonal but that might be a little more complicated
Emerging markets, foreign ETFs. EEM, FXI, etc. Be advised with the impact of currencies on foreign assets. Anything will outperform SPX this year.
I made 35% last year in EEM (which is easy to recall by the moniker “Everything Except Merica”)
Agreed 100%. That's why I'm long $EEM and other emergin markets this year and preparing for a prolonged recession in U.S. stocks. I'm only swing trading certain high beta stocks very aggressively, taking profits aggressively, and only in U.S. stocks I'm comfortable being in for 3-5 years.
VEA, EEM both +33% in 2025 while SP500 +17% Periods of sustained weakening dollar has resulted in outsized gains to international stocks relative to US equities. Look at 2002-2007
probably. pundits already talking about sell america trade being back on. it's a great time to invest in foreign stock markets. $IEV, $IEMG, $EIFA, $EEM
Literally all of them. But cheap ones (on a relative basis) still are coal, oil, nat gas, iron ore, lithium, potash, agriculture to name a few. Emerging markets are fantastic as well like EWZ, EEM, ILA Other good ones that are breaking out so not at their cheapest but still low are copper, uranium, and of course silver gold platinum palladium have all led the way. Everything else is following. But this is only the start. Chart commodities against S&P and you can see us breaking out from a generational falling wedge into a double bottom
Generally investing in passive broadly diversified funds like VOO and VTI make sense. As pointed out elsewhere, they overlap so pick one. The issue now is becoming that a few large tech consituents are an extremely high percentage of the index. It is worth temporarily considering an allocation to RSP, equal weighted S&P 500. I am also a big believer in global diversification, so consider adding an international developed (VE or IDEV) and an emerging ETF (EEM or VEA).
In my taxable account, I got for diversification these days. Though I have long-term positions in mega caps that I keep and sell covered calls on for bonus income. But for any incremental investment, I just DCA into SPY these days. I also hold IWM and EEM for geographical and market cap exposure.
Sold $EEM at close. Big exposure to Taiwan and Chinese stocks. Looking to rebuy lower!
Emerging markets be emerging. EEM breaking out of a big ol base
my $EEM is booming. another big year for intl
Right now, I'm sitting on cash. The market is just not paying for downside protection right now for Low IV stocks and ETFs. A month ago, I got pretty good money for EEM and XLF (just over 1% for <30DTE) and now I would be lucky to get a quarter of what I got in late November. So it's not worth tying up my money in something that's paying me like 6% annualized. I'm not sophisticated enough yet to start doing bull call spreads or calendar spreads or whatever. So I do paper trades on higher IV stocks and ETFs and try to learn from what they do in the meantime.
2026 plays? EEM, IEFA, IEV, Taiwan country ETF, BABA
Lots of international stuff. Gonna continue to outperform US assets. VYMI, TEI, EEM. Gold is going to continue to strengthen. Have to maintain some exposure to tech through VGT or XLK but pared back a bit.
Cool list, but let's add some context: Most of these are either: Sector bets (gold, silver, copper miners) -extremely cyclical and volatile. They crushed it in 2025, but check their 3-year or 5-year returns. Many were deep red before this run. - Leveraged/niche plays** (3X miners, thematic ARK funds) high risk, high reward. ARKK was down -67% from peak to 2022. One good year doesn't erase that. International diversification (EZU, VEA, EEM) - these lagged the S&P for a decade. They're finally having their moment, but that's mean reversion, not sustained outperformance. The real takeaway: You can beat SPY/QQQ... if you pick the right sector at the right time. But that requires timing and luck. Most people who chase last year's winners end up buying high. Boring truth:A diversified portfolio (like VT, XEQT, or even just SPY) won't top this list in any single year, but it'll keep you invested through all market cycles without trying to predict which sector pops next.
nice to see someone actually talking about investments on here: EEM (broad emerging markets) EET/EDC (leveraged version, be careful here... does poorly in a flat or down market) ACWX (includes developed markets too, so less risky overall) EEMA (Asia focussed) ILF (South America focussed, probably has a very long runway due to macro political and economic changes. As always, not fa. do your own research
PHYS, EEM, IEFA, VEA, IWM, XLK, XLP, XLV some tech now maybe, in shares
Buy value stonks, $EEM, and gold / commodities.
*grins with donkey teeth* AHAAAHHHH GOT EEM
You could look at low IV ETFs like EEM or XLF that selling a CSP on could net you about 1.1-1.3% per month. Plus what you're getting from SPRXX (or the equivalent MM while your cash is held as collateral) you could hit 16-18% a year all in. If the CSP expires unassigned then you just make the premium and start again. If you get assigned, you've got a little bit lower cost basis than the strike you chose so you can sell immediately or start writing CCs against them. A lot less risk because you don't have IV crushing you out of nowhere. Yes, it's boring but it's the kind of thing that doesn't YOLO $250k off a cliff. I want income off this not insane growth.
I'd say that is a fine approach. However, I will note that $SPY and $VOO are actually basically the same thing (both hold the same underlying companies) so I'd recommend just choosing one of those two just to keep things organized/consolidated. $VOO charges a lower fee, but a lot of people choose $SPY because it has more volume (so a tighter bid-ask spread). If you're planning on holding for a long time $VOO is the better choice. I'd go with 50% $VOO, 20% VT, 20% $VTI, 10% $EEM.
BRO, lol. Those Buttcoiners were all like as soon as it's over the liquidity will begin flowing back to their bags. GOT'EEM! https://preview.redd.it/v0p6h7gd9y1g1.jpeg?width=32&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b9234fb370e7e02bb6da9a7615723bc151d7fd20
Emerging Markets are in Bubble territory! no sustainable growth above 2pct + with increasing fiscal deficits and explosive debt dynamics heading to socialism like Brazil (EWZ/EEM)!
If you’re investing for the long term then a simple balanced portfolio of US stocks, developed and emerging markets, and whatever amount of bonds makes sense for your age will do just fine. Throw in 10-15% of gold for more diversification and a hedge against stagflation and you’re good. More tactically and shorter to intermediate term I would consider reducing US exposure slightly and upping your exposure to EFA and EEM. Growth prospects aren’t amazing for some international regions but they’ve underperformed for a long time and capital is starting to flow back to them with US weakness. That means their valuations are still cheap compared to American valuations. They’ll benefit from a weakening USD as well.
You’re about to buy a fund of funds. Each fund inside of the ETF has an expense ratio and then the whole ETF has another one. Although it’s vanguard who is known for its low fees VEQT has 0.24% while SPLG (SP500) is 0.02 I would pick about 3-7 good ETFs and build a quick portfolio. Don’t worry about rebalancing. Although individual stocks are going to out perform its a lot more hands on. If you’re just going to set it and forget it I would do an ETF portfolio and not touch it till you’re 55. SPLG 35% SCHG 25% VIOG 20% IXUS 10% EEM 10% Feel free to swap SCHG for one of the QQQs and SPLG for SPY or VOO if ya like. *Not financial advice, do you’re own research and determine your own long term goals and risk tolerance

I don't see where OP indicated post-tax, but with that much money and he's probably young, I see how we can infer that he probably hasn't been able to stuff it into IRAs in a short amount of time. But yeah, taxes I tend to forget because 1) most of my money is in tax-free-or-deferred accounts, and 2) I've always felt like if I'm paying the tax man more, it must be because I'm making more money. And to the second point, I think people often overestimate the tax burden when you're talking about greatly-superior gains that something like this could give. On a 1 to 1 comparison, sure, take the tax-preferred approach. But I just typed out for someone here in another thread a PMCC strategy on EEM that projects 26% over the next month from the LEAPS Call, plus another 2% from selling a CC against it. I know 28% in a month sounds crazy to you, but the math is there. But if you will, let's back it down to 'just' 5% per month. 5x down from my projections. My wife and I are in the 24% tax bracket. Would I rather pay: 15% LTCG taxes on the 17% that VOO is putting up for the year past, Or 24% on a 60% gain? (Again, if such a return were even attainable.)
So here's one with Weeklies that I like: **EEM** \- 23.4M volume, good liquidity on its Weekly options It's 'only' done 18% over the last 6 months (that includes LD), but I'm going to use that to prove a point. (And anyway, that's a solid projected 36% apy.) In this thread I don't remember if I've mentioned the PMCC, but those are what I mostly do: Buy a Call at 80-delta at least a year out. Sell a Call at 30-delta a month out. But personally I've backed down to 16-delta for the short because I kept getting run over at higher Deltas. And really, the CC part is just meant to be gravy; if it gets ITM then it caps gains on the long Call, which is the real money-maker. So it's Wed 9/17 and the market is open: **Buy** the Dec 2026 46C at 457DTE and about 80-delta (options are thin, so Deltas are a bit wonky) for **10.75**. **Sell** the 17Oct56C at 17-delta and 30DTE for **0.22**. ROI: 0.22 / 10.75 = 2.0% --> 24% apy if you project Not earth-shattering, but very solid, right? Remember, those are just gravy, a little play money. Let's turn to the long Call: What's its leverage to EEM shares? It's spot, 53.34, divided by the cost of the Call, so: 53.34 / 10.75 = 4.96 But then we have to multiply by Delta, because the Call only moves Delta-percent as much as the shares, so: 0.80 x 4.96 = 3.96 Which means that ***we're getting nearly 4 times leveraged exposure to EEM***. That's important to understand, so re-read through it: Delta x (Spot / Call cost) So what does that mean? It means that if EEM goes up 1%, our long Call goes up 4%, like that. And now finally, this is where we're counting on that momentum to continue: What did EEM do in the past month? 6.7% according to Yahoo Finance. Multiply that by our 3.96 leverage: 26%. *In a month.* So you've got two ROI pieces there: 2%/month from selling CCs, and that should stay pretty constant no matter what EEM does. And a likelihood of 26% month appreciation of the long Call. And heck, if the stock slows down, even half of that from the long Call would be phenomenal. Plus I'd still have that sort of baseline 2%/month coming in. Tell me what you think.
over the past three months i've start putting a lot in EEM, i might also include an all-world one (eem is just emerging markets) to cover my bases!! thanks so much

EEM (emerging markets ETF) seems to be having a nice run lately. Up more than QQQ ytd. Good play?
Building Africa exposure is easier if you start with a broad EM ETF that has at least 10-15% Africa, then layer on a couple of liquid JSE names in logistics and agri-processing. The ETF (iShares EEM or Schwab Emerging Markets) gives you instant spread and solves the liquidity issue that kills many direct trades, while the JSE lets you cherry-pick firms like Grindrod or Omnia that will ship or process whatever extra corn and copper leave the continent. Direct ADRs are scarce, so Interactive Brokers’ multi-currency account is almost mandatory; expect wide bid-ask spreads and occasional T-plus-three settlement hiccups. I treat currency risk as a separate line item-hedging half the rand or naira exposure with forwards keeps the ride smoother than relying on tight stop-losses. Macro tells: watch South Africa’s PMI, Kenya’s port throughput stats, and China’s own import data; they spike before earnings do. I screen positions in IBKR, check policy updates on Trading Economics, and Launch Club AI surfaces Reddit chatter that often hints at regulatory moves first. Stay patient, stick to liquid names, hedge the currency, and let the tariff tailwind play out over years, not months.
Conversely, foreign stocks denominated in dollars have done very well. EFA and EEM (or similar) should be in every portfolio.
You can start with $1K but you'll need to trade with small numbers. For example 1 strike wide ETFs like SPY or EEM credit spreads. Small gains but limited losses if the market goes against you. Do you have a trading plan? Have you read/studied any literature about options? E.g. books, exchange publications, online articles from brokers. I, like others, trade SPX options but you can't really do that with $1K.
RSP is up 55% since its pre-pandemic peak vs SPY up 86%. VGK is up only 31% by comparison, EEM up 5%, VXUS up 22%. If you're concerned about the top-heavy nature of the S&P500, equal weight US equities is still probably a better route than diversifying internationally. There is a lot of great companies in the US outside the top 10.
When you exit your global market puts at open on Friday at a slight loss and enter September Calls on emerging and developed markets. I was mad about how the market dropped afterwards since i sold the puts at a slight loss. Now I am omega fucked. Can I recover by September 19th? I have calls on EEM 47 and EFA 88.
I had some long EEM and EFA calls that got hammered on Friday. It may be a while before they catch back up. It’ll depend on how things go in Iran for most of the world tbh. But long term U.S. may not be as hot as international.
I’ve been running Iron Condors for years and keep coming back to the same core group of underlyings. The big ETFs like SPY, QQQ, IWM, and DIA are staples for me. They’re liquid, have tight spreads, and generally trade in ranges that suit condors well. Sometimes I’ll mix in EEM or FXI if I want a bit of international flavor. I’ll also use names like AAPL or MSFT when I want to step outside the indices, but only when there’s no earnings or major catalyst on the horizon. When I’m screening for trades, the first thing I look at is implied volatility. Specifically, I use IV rank and IV percentile. IV rank gives me a sense of where current volatility sits compared to the past year, and IV percentile tells me how it stacks up relative to the most recent data. I’m usually looking for an IV rank north of 30 or so. That’s when the premium starts to get interesting. I’ll also glance at RSI and some basic breadth indicators just to see if the market or the underlying looks stretched. Nothing too fancy there—just enough to get a feel. As for setting the strikes, I keep it pretty simple. I usually sell the short strikes around the 15 to 20 delta. That gives me a decent balance between risk and reward. Wing width depends on how much capital I want to commit and the kind of risk I’m comfortable with, but $5 to $10 wide is typical. I want to collect at least one-third the width of the spread in premium, otherwise it’s usually not worth the risk. Sometimes I’ll skew the strikes a bit if I have a directional opinion or if I need to balance out my overall portfolio delta. I like to open trades about 30 to 45 days out and take them off when I’ve captured around 50 percent of the max profit. I don’t hold to expiration unless I’m trying to squeeze the last bit of value out and the position is safely out-of-the-money. I definitely avoid trading into earnings or big news weeks—there’s just too much risk of a breakout that can blow through both sides. The big thing with Iron Condors, at least in my experience, is that they reward consistency and risk management. It’s not a flashy strategy, but when you respect the probabilities and keep your sizing in check, it can be a great tool for steady income.

Fidelity accounts (like my HSA, IRA, inherited IRA) hold your money in SPAXX money market until you make other investment decisions. If you don't auto-reinvest in your holdings, you can let dividends sit there and they will still earn a bit. Last time I looked about a week ago, the rate of return for SPAXX was still over 4%, which is less than the 5% of maybe six months ago, but currently, and sadly, this return is better than the year-to-date performance of the stocks and funds I was holding. I sold everything I had between 2/14 and 2/26, and I am staying put for now. I had stuff like SPY, VOO, IWR, EEM (some that I inherited), and I see I cut my losses pretty well, because the stuff I sold seems to have on average a year-to-date earnings range of negative 1% up to maybe 3% at the most. It looks like it is going to get worse.
