The tiny London-listed share that’s on the brink of doubling in post-war Georgia. There’s a popular misconception that the Chinese word for “crisis” means “danger and “opportunity”.

On August the 8th, Russia declared war on Georgia. By the 9th, it was an all-out bloodbath. Reports show that over 2,000 people have died during that short time and over 100,000 people fled the conflict. As you can see, war is never pretty.

So much for $100 oil. The war between Russia and Georgia — which had zero impact on oil prices last week — suddenly has put a floor under oil as the new week begins, at least for the moment.The proximate reason is the shutdown of oil shipments (and all other shipments) from Georgian ports, coupled with Georgia’s claim that Russia tried to bomb the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan (BTC) pipeline that runs from the Azerbaijan to Turkey, through Georgia.

Many investors will want to avoid Russia right now. And they’ll definitely want to avoid Georgia.
