For quite some time I was interested in recommending that my readers invest in Russia. I still had concerns about some political issues and organized crime in the country. Most experts out there tell people to stay away from Russia, so I knew I had to do further research myself.
One day I told my lovely wife to get her passport ready because we were going to Moscow. She was quite excited because Moscow is a shopping mecca with many historical sites to see. But, I assure you—I was there for business.
We traveled to Russia in December of last year and I saw firsthand how the country operates. I observed that the Russians are a hard working and productive people that just want the best for their families. Russians are striving for a better quality of life just like anyone else. I knew right away that the country offers investor’s high profit potential.
I assure you that Russia is still a super power and their society is quite advanced. The energy sector in Russia is still a powerful force in the world. Plus, Russia is one of the biggest producers of palladium, platinum, diamonds, nickel and gold. Russia is a natural resource power house and should do great as commodity prices skyrocket.
When I got back to America I watched the Russian markets for some time and waited for the right moment to tell you to invest.
Then on 04/09/09 in this column, I wrote:
“the Russian market is way oversold and now is a good time to be a contrarian investor and invest when no one else will.”
I told you to buy the Market Vectors Russia ETF (RSX). This Exchange Traded Fund holds a basket of Russian stocks and seeks to mirror the Russian stock market as measured by the DAX Global Russia+ Index.
I hope you took the advice. If so, you’re sitting on a 39% gain in just 53 days. And that’s not the only profitable advice you’ve received for free in these pages…
In fact, just this year I sent you lots of big winners including:
7% SPDR Gold Shares (GLD)
21% iShares Silver Trust (SLV)
85% Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc. (FCX)
45% Plum Creek Timber (PCL)

Russia is a sucker’s play. Your not looking at the systematic risks - government. The KGB runs the government. What time in history can you point to that suggests the KGB is a reliable capital market partner?
Thanks Ted. You mention a lot of winners this year, and I congratulate you on those…. Were there any picks that didn’t turn out so well? Could you provide a weighted average return for any selected time period(s)? Also, will you be letting us know when it is time to sell your recommendations?
