Should I Buy iShares MSCI South Korea ETF (EWI)? Finance YouTuber Analysis

The YouTuber suggests EWI for targeted equity exposure to South Korean tech giants, noting its role as a critical hub for international tech supply chains. He highlights its significant holdings in Samsung and SK Hynix, along with other industrial and financial conglomerates, offering attractive structural valuation.

“The last piece of my high- growth puzzle is the iShares MSCI South Korea ETF known as ticker EWI. This provides targeted equity exposure to the economic tech giants of South Korea for a 0.59% expense ratio.”

The YouTuber recommends the iShares MSCI South Korea ETF as a way to gain exposure to Korea Zinc Company, which is building a smelter in Tennessee with US government investment. While Korea Zinc is a small holding within the ETF, it's presented as the only accessible way for US investors to participate in this specific government-backed project.

“Because those shares aren't available on US exchange, what you can do here, you go to the iShares MSCI South Korea ETF. That's going to be the ticker EWI.”
