  • Russia Looks Better on Paper Than in Real Life
    > I have been putting Soviet, er, Russian dezinformatists on "ignore" over at GIM for about a month now, but I see by the above that their presence is not limited to GIM.

    Of course, everything coming from russians must be propaganda, but everything coming from the US media is 100% unbiased truth. I am russian living in the US. I see both sides. What reason do I have to spread misinformation?

    I find that the propaganda machine in the US is very well oiled, and equally effective as the one we used to have in the USSR. Sometimes, I think that it is on purpose US education in history and geography is so limited. Uneducated masses are easier to control.

    The world ia a very scary place for an average american.

    However, to be a successful investor/ trader one must attempt to see the world the way its truly is .

  • Russia Looks Better on Paper Than in Real Life
    Russia is far more stable now tha it was 10 years ago. And those who invested 10 years ago made a lot of money.
    It is risky no doubt. But is US maket any safer? US Financials are down 70-80%, Russia is down 20%. The only valid argument here is that finacials might have bottom ad Russia may be not.
    In any case, I bought Gazprom Neft today. It pays nice dividend and I don't have to worry about it going bancrupt.

  • Mechel Should Bounce on Russian Deputy P.M.'s Comments
    > In short, the guy said that Mechel either does what Putin wants or it goes the yukos way.

    Mechel will do whatever it has to do to stay afloat. It will not be another Yukos. For the second day sellers were not able to push it below 16. I am buying it.

  • Mechel: Waiting Til the Smoke Clears
    I am russian, and I don't find Putin/ Medvedev scary, not at all. Putin is the best thing that happened to Russia in the last 200 years. He wants to restore Russia to prosperity, but he is not intrested in building a ne empire, and so are russians, they just want a good life.
    Said that, he takes a similar approach to Chinese, where he expects successful companies to contribute (read sponsor) Russia's growth. That will limit profit margins in the short term, but everybody will benefit from Russia's prosperity in the long run.
    Putin is somewhat heavy handed in dealing with defiance. MTL was smart to comply immideatly. It is not exactly democratic way to govern, but compared to other Russia's rules, Putin is a considerable improvement.
