Hello Frank, your departure from SDII was a bummer, but I have postmarked the iHub spot. I do not post on iHub, however I am a card-carrying member. Actually I carry a bunch of cards on iHub, not just under my own name but also under variations of Maurice and one under Pezz. I, in anticipation of their need when SI was rumored to disappear into oblivion, registered their names so as more easily make them say what I believe:0)

You know, like so:
investorshub.com
investorshub.com
oops, I meant … :0)
investorshub.com

On Yukos/Russia, I think as you, that there are risks to the situation, but I just do not think the risks warrant a 0% allocation.

I did note Stratfor’s issue with the fact that many oligarchs are ‘Jews’. I am deliberately ignoring the possible eventual ugly implications because I believe Putin is sharp, and will not let events get too far to the right/left of center. Putin is a KGB trained politician, not demagogue, and in fact probably will go after demagogues as harshly as he is going after oligarchs.

Gosh, oligarchs, Putin, … I feel so participative :0)

Chugs, Jay
