Lipper doesn’t show that. But TRP’s own website does. Unconscionable IMHO. What retail investor has the time horizon and patience to own a fund like that? The math will probably reveal that you’d need a 95% gain to make up for that 86% YTD loss!TRP Emerging Europe (TREMX) is down -86.24% YTD. 67.61% of assets in Russian stocks. Looks like you can still purchase shares if one has an inkling to do so. Schwab is only allowing redemptions.
Fascinatingly, about 1% of Bitcoin owners own about 70% of all outstanding Bitcoins. This contrasts with about 3% of the global population owning about 70% of global wealth. Interestingly, the difference between Bitcoin ownership and other financial asset concentration is not that much.
Shifting to the green portion, the top 0.71% of Bitcoin owners own 55% of the cryptocurrency, while the distribution is slightly smaller for owners of other financial assets. The top 0.71% of owners of euro and dollar denominated assets own about 41% of all the wealth.
WOW. Some of their holdings are almost down 100% YTD.TRP Emerging Europe (TREMX) is down -86.24% YTD. 67.61% of assets in Russian stocks. Looks like you can still purchase shares if one has an inkling to do so. Schwab is only allowing redemptions.

I've lately pared back much of my RPSIX. Preserving profit. The fund is down to 11.09% of my total right now.Interesting that GMO has (or had) 2 equity funds with north of 10% in Russia.
Also, PRELX (TRP) is listed with a 6.1% weighting in Russia among bond funds, but has held up substantially better this year than Price’s normally tamer (hedged) EM bond fund, PREMX.
PRELX was down 5% YTD as of yesterday, while PREMX was down nearly 10%. if you’re holding some of TRP’s allocation funds, particularly RPSIX, you’re likely absorbing some of the hit.
Ouch! - any way you cut it.
I’m going to write today off as a miserably waste! Aside from a modest hold in TAIL and some p/m miners not much is jumping, leaping - or even crawling forward. :)
