Pablo, just a few of things for you to consider: 1. If you want to short us, PLEASE DO. We already have shorts that have lost over $2 million, and the rest are gonna lose much more than that. So just take a ticket and stand in line. But be aware that you are competing with professional shorters who are losing their ass.
2. I hope you have real shares to short with, because unless you are in Canada or are a MM, you can't see what you don't have.
3. The Indonesia thing: from the current edition of the Washington Post note that:
"Meanwhile, the International Monetary Fund announced that its board unanimously agreed to release a $1 billion installment of Indonesia's $43 billion economic bailout."...
" The seal of approval from the IMF means that other international lenders, including the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank, will also disburse loans that they had been withholding."
4. Indonesian's recent crisis has been DGIV's gains, in that we have acquired companies that may have been too expensive otherwise.
5. Indonesia is just one of our entries -- we also have Russia, Australia, and I hear Vietnam, Saudi Arabia, Phillipines.
6. Political turmoil is normal, rather than the exception, in today's world. You think this is bad, ask people like Brotherton who are 100% diabled Vietnam Vets. However, turmoil never halts econimic activity, it just provides opportunities. Ever hear of the German miracle after WWII? How about Japan? Ever hear of Vietnam? It is a very peaceful country now.
Heck, I could go on, but I'm tired... besides, I want you to short us!!! Put your money where your mouth is!! |
