Emerging Europe ETFs Head-To-Head: ESR vs. GUR http://seekingalpha.com/article/175670-emerging-europe-etfs-head-to-head-esr-vs-gur?source=feed#comment-782822 782822 How can you lump Poland with Russia, a growing, dynamic country with a declining, criminal state?
How can you lump Czech with Hungary, a growing dynamic country with a declining state whose people refuse to face up to the removal of communism.
Only in America do we think states are related just because they are located near each other.
ESR and GUR are a fool's game, they make money all right, but for the fund managers not for you.
Eric you wasted your time reporting on these - step back, take a look at what you are choosing to write about.

Best of luck to you all!]]>

Nucor Corporation: Fantastic Stock at an Attractive Price http://seekingalpha.com/article/175214-nucor-corporation-fantastic-stock-at-an-attractive-price?source=feed#comment-777343 777343
You should know that NUE hit a low of $38.02 in November. NUE hit a low of $25.25 in November. Also NUE hit a low of $50.11 in November (which is higher than the high of THIS November). (courtesy Yahoo Finance)

Maybe if you fill in the blanks (2009, 2008 and 2007) it might make sense.

You, Jacob, write too fast and don't have anyone check your posts for you.

Too bad,]]>

"The stock hit a low of $25 in November and has rebounded significantly since then"

Which November did you have in mind? Do you work for Jim Cramer?

Sorry for this but you did write the thing.]]>
