EPU: Peru Isn't One Of My Top LatAm Picks Right Now

Latin American equities have outperformed the U.S. market in 2025, and Peru is among those winners year-to-date. Peru's political instability and upcoming elections present significant risks, particularly when compared to other countries in the region. EPU's mining focus benefits from high commodity prices, but the lack of diversification will be a drag if metals prices slide.

EPU: Sell This Peruvian ETF Which Lacks Sufficient Exposure To Peru

Peru's economy, driven by the mining sector, offers good growth potential with a 7.5% CAGR in GDP from 2000-2023 and low inflation rates. Peru's exposure to the global copper market is very positive as EVs are widely adopted, and power grids are upgraded around the world. A significant proportion of EPU's holdings are represented by companies whose main operating market is not Peru.

EPU: A Copper Play When The Time Is Right

Peru offers macroeconomic stability with strong fundamentals and growth potential, supported by new mining projects and structural reforms. iShares MSCI Peru ETF provides targeted exposure to Peru's resource-driven growth, with top holdings in the financial and materials sectors.
