Mark Mobius, widely credited as a pioneer in emerging markets investing , died on Wednesday at the age of 89, according to a statement on his LinkedIn page . Known as the “Indiana Jones of emerging markets” for his willingness to unlock new, sometimes hazardous jurisdictions, Mobius relished the challenge. “Volatility,” he wrote in “Passport to Profits,” one of his many books, “is not an enemy to fear but a sign that opportunity is close at hand.” The post did not mention a cause of death.
