I agree with Pancho that Japan is an open question. Another publication just mentioned TRF as a way to short Russia. The hot streak is over there, Yeltsin is bumbling around, miners strikes, Lebed poised to run for president.

The article said TRF trades at a 25% premium to underlying share value, up from 19% when the fund was double the price.

Any opinions? Dividend is payable June 12 so we have to wait until then.

MSFT - after installing Win98 and yawning in disappointment, it could be a good target. I don't think many organizations will pay to upgrade their network PC's to what is essentially Win95.1, not with NT 5.0 on the way. Could be Bill's summer of discontent.
