Hi Kyros - People have been talking about the dollar & the S&P being over valued fro a long time. I expect many European portfolio managers who have large holding of US stocks shorted indexes or select stocks a year or so ago.

Now that the dollar is down 25% and the S&P off, they are covering or picking up bargains.

haven't figured out how much could be made by this trade, but it 's a lot.

Thanks for RRI and MIR. I'm now looking at ILA (Aquila) - closed at $3.14, about $8 book, about $4 cash. 600 million debt, sale of UK power plant may bring 1.6 billion..

That's preliminary, I'm a long way from DD but I'm buying now...
