As alternatives for trouble, it seems positions in Canadian crude producers might be prudent. Long IMO...other thoughts/suggestions from those with a similar perspective? TIA whitepine

Thanks for posting a very interesting article, seppo. I was unaware that the male succession line was brother to brother from eldest down rather than from father to son. I would guess that near term, that order of succession might forestall an all out intra-family war unless an elder brother is grossly incompetent or worse and is unwilling to step aside. With probable scores of "next generation" wannabees waiting in the wings with little chance of assuming the throne, it would seem instability is assured UNLESS the next successor rules ruthlessly by severing a few hands if not heads to make his point.
