Investing: Russian Ruble, Short-Term Russian Government Bonds

I bought the Russian Ruble recently, one of the beaten down currencies. What I actually did, I bought short-term government bonds in Rubles. They have a high interest rate and if the Ruble goes up I will get a double play. (Market Vector Russia ETF Trust (RSX))

Stocks: Reasons To Invest In The Russian Stock Market

It is certainly beaten down. I cannot think of any market in the world that is more hated than the Russian stock market. I have learned over the years that if you buy something that is really hated, especially if it is fundamentally sound, you are going to do OK. It may take a some time but you will probably going to do OK.

Russia has huge resources. It is not a debtor nation, it is still a big creditor nation, the currency is convertible. They have problems but they have been doing the right things. I wish their central banker was our central banker. (iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF (EEM), Market Vector Russia ETF Trust (RSX))
