MORGAN STANLEY CHINA (CAF)
Prospectus:
http://www.morganstanleyindividual.com/Markets/IPOCenter/Prospectus/?DocID=p_CAFMS
This close-end fund allow you to invest in the China A share market. Unlike many other funds that invest in China, which most of them are buying H share (Chinese companies that are listed on Hong Kong Exchange). Currently, only Chinese citizens and qualified institutional investors are allowed in investing in China A share. Be extremely careful, that the Chinese stock market (A share in particular) is extremely over-valued by traditional metrics. The fund is also very thinly traded (avg vol: 400k). This makes CAF a extreme risky trading instrument IMHO.
I personally think FXI is a better way to invest in the Chinese market.
Prospectus for FXI: http://www.ishares.com/content/stream.jsp?url=/content/repository/material/prospectus/ftse_xinhua.pdf&mimeType=application/pdf
Here are the reasons why:
1. FXI is a index tracking ETF- low expense and not as thinly traded (avg vol: 6m)
2. The valuation is way more reasonable due to the fact the fund invest in ADRs/H share.
