I bailed from my ARU months ago, because:

1. I lost the nerve to hang with the kind of B.S. seen today
2. The Constituent Assembly Guaranteed that uncertainty would not be resolved in a timely manner, thus there would be repeated swoons on Politics.
3. I could not afford to lose the amount of capital and the gains I had in ARU.
4. You cannot assume that intelligent policy will win over stupid policy.

Just making the point that logic and smart economics do not always determine political outcomes. I think it is easier to HANDICAP geology and management than it is to HANDICAP politicians.

Yes there is risk in all stocks, and I would take a small risk on say DMM right now, but it does not fit with my circumstances.

Cheers,
Ogi
