<\/p>\nBloomberg’s recent analysis of emerging markets has ranked Malaysia right on top the list.<\/p>\n
According to the Bloomberg analysis, Malaysia remains on top of the list because of its current-account surplus,\u00a0relatively stable economic growth outlook, and valuations. The data also showed\u00a0inflation came in at 0.6 percent in October from a year earlier, compared with its 10-year government bond yield of about 4.17 percent.<\/p>\n
Aside from Malaysia, four other Asian countries made the list. China sits strong at third place, Philippines close behind at 4th place, followed by Thailand in 6th place. Korea finish off in 10th place.<\/p>\n
China and Thailand are drawing support from current-account surpluses, relatively strong growth and benign inflation. The Philippines\u2019 current-account deficit and high inflation rates are partly offset by growth of more than 6 percent.<\/p>\n
