Yeah, I guess I was pretty naive when I got more EWM yesterday,
thinking it had not fully reacted to all of Kuala Lumpur's gains. So I
guess the ADR's, EWM etc were all up as much as they were
going to be up, and then when the Malyasian market opened lots
of things probably just gapped up to match. Now if the locals had
driven things up further...but instead they're probably scratching
their heads too, thinking why did I sell before Ramadan, when there
is no chance to get back in now cheap.

Conversely, when you hear one of the foreign markets does well
during their local trading, expect the ADR's and funds to gap up
to match. So there is probably no way for simple minded peasants
like me to play this game.

Too bad, I purchase my last "third" of EWM at what will probably
be the high for the week. Sort of funny when you think about it
tho, I put in a limit order at 6 early yesterday so that I dont overpay
when EWM gaps up--silly me, if it was going up it would have
opened up
