FPF burned me too...bought it last summer and didn't dump it til mid-september. I've danced in and out of the thing...but maybe finally it is at the bottom. Higher volume this past week and seems to have found bottom of 6 5/8. The only two country cef's that I've really followed for awhile are First Philippine Fund and Pakistan Invesment Fund, PKF, the former because it has to be the cheapest place to do business in SE Asia, the latter because someday Pakistan will grow up. Any thoughts from you...or anybody else on the thread? I dont follow anything in the southern hemisphere so not too interested in any tips down there (I just do that to narrow the field).
