Steve - I am not aware of any feature within BrightScope that would help you with your question. Moreover, past performance data are not indicative of future returns. Instead you should evaluate each fund's investment strategy, expenses, and risk in order to select a fund or combination of funds that meet your investment objectives. Your 401(k) plan may offer some tools and educational materials to help you with this analysis. You could also consult with the plan's investment provider, provided he/she is qualified, independent, and objective. Or you could retain your own independent investment advisor to help. Good luck!

Shane, sorry to break this to you...but if you are asking this question, as you evidently are, then you should not be buying either stock. Instead, and assuming that foreign stock exposure is appropriate for your financial objectives and circumstances, then you are far better off investing in a low cost, passively managed, highly diversified fund of foreign stocks. Of course, you could also benefit by seeking the advice of a qualified, no-commission investment advisor who could help you evaluate you financial objectives and design an investment portfolio that fits your needs.

You have asked a very important question, which you would think deserves a simple answer. Unfortunately, however, the reporting of investment performance is a very complicated subject that is rife with abuse, misrepresentation, and neglect. We recommend that you find an investment advisor who is committed to consistent and periodic reporting of investment performance results that comply with the Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS) of the CFA Institute. These standards insure that results are presented fairly, accurately, and on a comparable basis.

*Experience and Employment History information reflects the past 10
years of employment as reported on the SEC ADV filing as of 05/31/2011, and is not a complete representation of the advisor's experience and
employment history. Furthermore, the advisor is required to provide this information only while registered with an investment advisor firm
and the information is not updated through Form U4 after the advisor ceases to be registered. Therefore, an employment date of "Present" may not reflect the advisor's current employment status.
