Putin, the Economics Professor

The Russian people are great but their government is a criminal enterprise.

Heavy Reliance on Energy Depresses Russian ETF

I wonder what Putin's 40 Billion stock holdings are worth now? I guess it really doesn't matter because he stole every share. Our government needs to understand that the Russian government is a criminal organization, They have plan for America and it isn't pretty.

A Russian Perspective on the Rise of the U.S. Dollar

Russia, what a basket case. Losing population every year,no export economy besides energy, outside of Moscow and St.Petersburg the infrastructure is just terrible, a government that is a criminal enterprise, an army that can only fight against tiny countries, no rules, no laws. If crude falls to $50, they will be back to 1998. The good news, Putin is worth 40 billion dollars.

Hedge Fund Manager's Notebook: Blood on the Streets - Buy Russia

I hope some of you are young. You will see Russia self implode over the next 40 years. They are losing 700,000 folks every year. The population based studies agree on the fact that Russian population will be only
100 million in 40 years. We, the good old USA will be at 500 million. As for investing in Russia, if you like investing in a criminal enterprise (Putin and his friends own 50 billion dollars of Russian stocks) you are free to do so. I am married to Russian and have been to Russia 15 times. Outside of Moscow and St, Petersburg this country is in terrible shape.
