edamo, --OT---

Regarding the currency hedge. It is conceptually clear but actually very complex procedure. I don't know how many people can do it on the other side of the ocean. I have met the top traders in Mainland China before. I once tried to help a transaction for a huge China oil company in the swap market. It was a 1500 contracts crude optionswap with Merrill. The guy @ Merrill could not do it and the deal went somewhere else. And the guy @ Merrill was fired.

I met almost all the top Chinese traders during 1994 time period. At least at that time I don't think anyone good at these derivatives. I don't know anything about Taiwan. Maybe there are some good ones, but I doubt it.

You may have totally different experience than I have. But in general even those hedges can be done, it eventually will turn into gambling.
