A perfect example of the mixed feelings that investors have w/ Israeli stocks is CHKP. I rode with it during the tough times of mid 98 when it traded as CHKPF. It's security software was getting rave reviews as the price continued to slump. The Yahoo board was awful.

I believe it would have done well on its own, but I can't help but wonder if at least some of the spectacular gain (well, under historical measures rather than the weird wonderful world of the last 2 months) is due to dropping the "F" in the stock symbol and Americanizing the corporate structure.
