I think you should read some history, then more history again. Russia has never been a capitalist and democratic country. And it will never be, although they say they are. There are over 20 Ethnic groups in Russia (Tatars, Ukrainians, Bashkirs, Chuvashs). 15% of them are Muslims. They all dream that one day they will get independence from Russians. As chechns (Chechnya) did 2 times since 1992. Yes, they have lots of resources. But can they use them? Don't forget that before Russia it used to be USSR, even more stronger, even bigger with even more resources. And what happened? In less then 70 years the system collapsed leaving after it 15 poorest countries in Europe. Don't forget every pound you invest in Russia help them to attack countries like Georgia, fly to London with radio active elements, block any US, UK resolutions in the security council, and many other totally unacceptable actions. So before investing I would think twice. Gary,

Don’t forget every pound you invest in Russia help them to attack countries like Georgia, fly to London with radio active elements, block any US, UK resolutions in the security council, and many other totally unacceptable actions.

So before investing I would think twice.

As for investing in Russia: Are you are good as reading between the lines as reading economic indicators? That's what it takes for Russians "write more between the lines" than in the text of article. What happened to Mechel is only a small example of what Putin can do and time may show that the Kuzbash explosion was anything but accident. It has KGB footprints all over it. Everyone knows that Putin is a KGB product and that Russia is not and never will be a true democracy. They like capitalist profits but not trus democratic principles. Sincerely Helen M. Dear Gary:
