Consider AIM European Small Company (ESMAX). Almost 20 percent returns, YTD, and yields in the upper 30's and 40's on the last year, 3 years, and 5 years. There will be a sales charge, and the expense ratio is a bit high (to be expected in managing a small company fund), but they have average turnover and average risk, so it is a well-managed fund.

The small Commonwealth Australia/New Zealand fund (CNZLX) is interesting. It is no load, but has a hefty expense ratio, and while the numbers aren't as high as the previously mentioned European fund, 10 percent YTD and previous periods are 31, 21, and 19 percent (previous year, 3 years, and 5 years)--and that with a low turnover and low risk investment pool.

While you are at it, take a look at some Ishares products: EWS (Singapore), EWP (Spain), and EWD (Sweden). Good numbers there too (except Sweden in the last month).

Good luck.
