iShares MSCI South Africa Index Fund Performance

Historical performance is a good guide for the future, but it is imperfect. Pay attention to a company's history, but be realistic about what you can project into the future.

1 Year Total Returns Performance Comparison

Here are iShares MSCI South Africa Index Fund's total returns compared to the market and some of its peers.

Any time an economy can grow its GDP 3.2% in this global environment, that's pretty impressive. No wonder the $EZA is doing so well lately.
