which are hi-tech based.

If the kleptocrats that run Russia can’t buy their next monthly Bentley due to a downturn, Putin is in trouble.

If the democrats weren't so damned liberal a few of the old school Kennedy dems would be out there with the Republicans opening oil opportunities and destroying what was left of the USSR. Opening drilling along with straightening the dollar would effectively drop oil prices another 20% and stop Putin's expansion plans in their tracks.

rampant militaristic nationalism Always a bad sign. Will those with the wisdom to keep their money in Russia once Putin started nationalizing companies, closing newspapers and killing opponents now switch their fund directions to Venezuela??

Now, it seems, investors are fed up with the rampant militaristic nationalism, red tape, corruption and anti-investor sentiment in Vladimir Putin's Russia. Some have decided to head for the door and take their money with them. Anybody that bought into the "Russian Investment Bonanza" deserves what the hell they get! Maybe next they will buy "Santa Claus Futures"???
