Vanguard's Emerging Markets (VWO)

I'm not convinced that equities have hit bottom, but I do know we must be very close.  One area that has sunk faster than the S&P 500 is emerging markets.  While the broader markets have been down about 35-40%, emerging markets have dropped 50-65%.  Even though I don't know that we have seen the bottom yet, I do know that entering emerging markets at this time has become almost irresistible.

How can one possibly resist a graph like this...



Vanguard's Emerging Markets ( VWO ) Exchange Traded Fund is at its lowest point EVER since it's inception - $22.19 !!!  Yes, emerging markets are perhaps one of the most risky areas, but it's going to be quite difficult to lose money at these prices.
