I didn't see you guys on this thread until the massive short covering that has occurred in Russian ADRs over the last few days. If I am one of the "guys," I hate to tell you I have no experience with shorting whatsoever. That sort of stuff is too risky for my blood. I am just an old Russia hand, who had some shares in Lexington Troika before it took its dive, and I came over here to see how things were doing. Hoped to pick up some insight from the folks who post here. The only thing I have any real expertise in is the political situation, which gives me the whim whams. But if the stock market is sufficiently insulated from the political situation, your analysis may very well be right... jbe
