Certainly. If you want to invest in emerging markets, fine. But I would make this only a small part of my portfolio. I would add, or invest in a large cap, mid cap, small cap, international (and not just emerging markets), bonds and even throw in a money market fund(s).
Do an asset allocation plan 1st. Within this plan you decide what % you want in each of the asset classes I mentioned. Once you do that, then you can go shopping for funds to fit your plan.

You should keep a portion of your portfolio in emerging markets, anywhere from 5-15% is pretty normal. Depends on how much risk you want to take.
Don't take your money out of the market and put it in CDs! The Fed is lowering rates right now, cash is trash!

i would invest in CD'S (Certificate of Deposits) the way the market is going, unless your a huge risk taker.
