Allan, thanks for info on MINI. I have learned over the years that dumb press releases usually precede troubles.

Allan & Roger I think MINI is all US business. Believe they rent out or lease refurbished containers to people to store belongings in. They bring the container to your home, you load, they return to their facility and store. They compete with Public Storage etc. Why else would they be in ABQ and OKC. At least that is my take on it. Debt heavy etc is probably correct (I didn't research) but wanted to point out that I don't think Asia will have any thing to do with price. regards
