I'll look at NBR again, although I already have plenty of oil service provider stocks. I've seen Barron's Roundtable picks from Dr. Faber over the years, and if I recall correctly, I've never been a buyer of his picks. They've either been too obscure or trade too locally -- i.e only on a Thai exchange, or Vietnam or Singaporean (depending on the stock) -- or are too difficult for me to analyze. Or too arcane for me-- as investing in currencies or something. If I recall correctly. "There are better names to invest in" .... "I put those names all the time." There are some stocks you ask about (Phillips), there are some stocks you seem to put forward as an idea (ITRI, RLD), there are some stocks you talk or blog about (HSH, XYL). And I've looked at all of the stocks as possible buys for me. And perhaps it is so that any or all of these stocks might be better investments than XIN. Otoh, perhaps not. I'll just say I'm willing to plunk down a few $ on XIN -- it fits what I am looking for.
