Kimberly-Clark (KMB) 138 years old has paid dividends since 1935 and increased the dividend for 38 consecutive years. The business of KMB is divided into 4 categories:

1. Personal Care products are best known for Huggies disposable diapers and Kotex feminine care products.
2. The Consumer Tissue segment sells facial and bathroom tissue towels paper towels napkins for household use under names such as Kleenex Scott Cottonelle and Viva.
3. The K-C Professional & Other segment sells the above personal care products for the away from-home marketplace including popular brands names such as Kimberly-Clark Kleenex KleenGuard and Scott.
4. The Health Care segment sells disposable health products such as surgical drapes and gowns infection control products face masks exam gloves and other disposable medical products under brand names of Kimberly-Clark Ballard among others.

While the product lines may appear to be mundane KMB has a long track record of earnings growth even if it has been punctuated with ups and downs along the way. They are a global company and expect a large portion of future growth to come from business outside the US and look for very rapid growth in BRICIT (Brazil Russia India China Indonesia and Turkey) countries to outpace growth in established markets.

Stocks | Gary Dorsch (Global Money Trends) submits:

Bullish investors betting on a V-shaped recovery for the global stock markets are convinced the worst of the global economic crisis is over and furthermore expect the emerging economic giants - Brazil China India Russia and Korea (BRICK) to become the locomotives of global growth. With China and India leading the way the notion of decoupling - emerging markets advancing faster than developed markets - and even pulling the G-7 economies out of recession is making a comeback.

Global speculators plowed a record $35.5-billion into emerging-market stock funds in the first half of this year faster than at any other comparable time on record. By contrast traders withdrew $61-billion from developed stock market funds over the same period. After all its simple logic to invest in a stock market index with a faster expanding economy such as China and India rather than invest in a contracting economy such as Japan experiencing its worst downturn since WWII.

<font>   <font> Littelfuse Updates Guidance for Second Quarter </font>
<font>     Tuesday July 07 2009 7:45:03 AM ET </font> </font>

<font> Littelfuse Inc. ( LFUS ) today announced revised guidance for the second quarter of 2009 as follows: </font>

<font> -- Sales for the second quarter of 2009 are now expected to be approximately $101 million which represents a 20% sequential increase compared to the first quarter of 2009. Previous guidance called for a 10-15% sequential increase. </font>

<font> -- On a GAAP basis the company expects to report a loss of ($0.12) to ($0.14) per diluted share which includes restructuring charges of approximately $7 million (pre-tax) or $0.22 per diluted share. These restructuring charges relate to plans announced on May 19 2009 to further consolidate manufacturing sites and further reduce operating expenses. </font>

<font> "Automotive and electronics sales improved more than expected in the second quarter and electrical sales increased in line with normal seasonality " said Gordon Hunter Chief Executive Officer. "With the cost reductions that have been implemented the current sales run-rate is well above our breakeven point excluding restructuring charges. While most end markets are still weak channel inventories have declined considerably and we are now into the traditionally stronger part of the year." </font>

<font> No conference call will be held in conjunction with this guidance revision. Littelfuse is scheduled to release financial results for the second quarter on Wednesday July 29 2009. </font>

In an earlier post I provided a shortlist of candidates for index-based exchange traded funds to capture the general market performance of emerging markets. These ETF-based funds are [[VWO]] [[EEM]] [[DEM]] [[BKF]] and [[BIK]] . While the short list provided a good starting point in this post I am reviewing the suitability of these funds against the investment objective. The investment objective is to capture the general performance of emerging markets. I did not consider reviewing BIK since it was invested only in 40 corporations in Brazil China Russia and India.
