Intra-day the RTS index went below what I
thought might be the bottom made that Thursday the RTS index dropped 17% but closed up. I still think around 60 is the bottom to the RTS index and we may never see the RTS index close below it.

Since I'm in a forecasting mood I think Russian stocks have huge potential (this is IMHO, so don't go bet the farm or anything).
I am looking for a minimum of 7X from these levels before I sell. I fully expect that 10X within 2 years is possible. Long term as Vi has pointed out they could go to GNP levels or about 60X.

Notice that all of a sudden the dollar is weak and the U.S. stock market isn't doing very good. We could see a pendulum swing back to asia and the emerging markets. This is especially true if oil rebounds sharply (OPEC). The economic meltdowns in asia and Russia are forecast to last a while, but markets tend to rise before economies do.
Well that is it. I know some people will want to pick my forecasts apart (PT where are you), but hey I would love some discussion of different viewpoints.
