EWL: A More Political Stable, But Too Expensive Alternative To The U.S.
Switzerland offers a stable investment environment with solid economic data, low inflation, and a healthy labor market. The iShares MSCI Switzerland ETF is expensive with a P/E ratio of 21.18 and a P/B ratio of 3.31, almost similar to the S&P 500. EWL's high allocation to Nestle, Roche, and Novartis poses diversification risks, and their low growth rates do not justify the ETF's high valuation.
