-- JPMorgan Asset Management, Van Eck Associates Corp. and Vontobel Asset Management are betting that the billions of dollars pulled from emerging markets will start coming back as US borrowing costs drop.Debt denominated in local currencies should advance the most, they say, as emerging-market central banks look to follow the Federal Reserve’s path.
