Don Vialoux Mrk Vectr Russia E.T.F. RSX-N DON'T BUY Dec 22, 2014

He has never invested in Russia. This one includes companies outside of MSCI. The question is the liquidity of these ETFs but this one would be the best choice. He would not buy Russia. Oil and gas is 39%, then there is nickel and materials.

Sold 20 contracts of January $15 Puts for $0.50 because most of Europe is still dependent on Russia for most energy needs. Don’t confuse gambling with investing. Anything to do with Russia is basically gambling because there is no transparency there whatsoever.

Chart shows a slow down trend from early 2013. Until it gets above $22, we may have more of the same. He would be a little leery of this one in the short term. He would wait for it to get above $24-$25 before stepping in. That is your level of support.

Is this a good one to play oil prices? This has recovered very well, but buying a Russian ETF or anything over there reminds him of Russian roulette. There is no transparency. It is very opaque and there is corruption everywhere.
