Opportunities to Profit from the New Cold War

Possible scenario but very speculative at this point. In any case, Russia's fortunes are tied to high oil prices, so the best way to fight this new "cold war" is to invest in new energy sources and bring oil prices down. Companies developing such technologies should be added to the list.

Also, this is another reason why the Euro's high flying days should be coming to an end. The comparative safety of the US dollar, given Europe's economic and geographic proximity to Russia, adds to the mix of factors that make the US currency a good buy at this time.
