Hello William. I notice you don't have akam in your portfolio now. I'm thinking it looks attractive. Comments?

And why exactly is it important to know what the private investments of a rich arab oil billionaire are? Maybe, just maybe, he said that and identified every investment by name because he is deeply underwater and is hoping to entice people onto his bandwagon?

BTW- the sheik was also the largest investor in planet hollywood, and publicly made a huge statement when he invested a last-desperation-round of financing into them right before they filed chapter 11.

Nothing but grandstanding.

<<<<it quoted him as saying he was publicly disclosing the investments as a courtesy because of his ``stature nationally and in the Middle East''.
