Sell. This fund of funds tracks the Morgan Stanley EAFE index by investing in European Index (currently about 70% of assets) and Pacific Index (the remaining 30%). It's similar to Tax-Managed International, which tracks the same index, though that fund buys stocks directly and comes with a higher minimum and more onerous back-end loads. Performance for the two has been virtually identical. Yet both ignore the emerging markets component that one finds in Total International or World ex-U.S. Index. And there's the rub. If you buy into the indexers' credo that one should index "all" markets rather than a slice of the pie, then this fund is a non-starter.
