Only one of them, if you think BRKA is wild look at COLTY, another FUND to watch ( you can't buy it as it's closed to new investors ) but it is worth watching SEQUX. quote.yahoo.com that's with an S&P average too. Jim

Hi Bill, this tread is a victim of it's own success. I can not cope with reading the many posting. In any case very nice volatility thank you. I am out of Rostelecom with a nice profit. Wrote some calls on ABX and had the opportunity to short LU, but by now I am again in cash except a small 500 shares hedged position in ABX. My read is same as over a month ago, we are in the process of a nice top. Japan even if will take all the needed medicine it will be several years before recovering. Their RE problems are bigger than the RTC in the US for a much smaller nation. On a fundamental basis, we are heading to a global slowdown IMHO and a prolonged bear market in the US, which by itself will complicate the issue. Eastern Europe and mostly Russia are not really recovering corruption and low commodity prices are hurting them. Will see if this will turn into social unrest. I hope not. Once this tread had many bearish participants which by now seem to sit on the fence. Well I do not blame them, but that is the sign of a top. BWDIK Happy trading to all. Haim
