Andrew, James: re, these foreign stocks:

Some of these value picks could do very well, but they are just too tough for me to hold when (if) they drop from current levels. Because there are just so many variables that can surprise: like political, currency, trading risk. I am thinking here of recent posts on an unknown (well to me anyway -g-) Columbian bank, or even the big conglomerate Sim Darby. I think for people who visit or live in some of these countries where they can see such companies in action, it's maybe okay. Great if you know what you are doing and have these in your portfolio. But I'd guess not too many other readers here would be interested in such individual stocks. To get me interested anyway, I, too, have got to be able to convince myself there's some sort of margin of safety or at least a ruling reason for making the purchase. Hard for me to do this just from the posts or from the meager data I can dig up on some of these stocks. Paul Senior
