Yes Serge, duh!!

if I thought the communists were going to win any elections, I would hardly invest in Russia would I? I invested exactly because I think Russia will remain capitalistic and that the economy will grow in the longer perspective.

But the Communists is the second largest party in Russian politics, so it's not unfeasable that they would win, is it? If Putin completely messes up, then they are the second largest party. If the biggest country messes up, the second biggest country picks up the votes.

It regularly happens in other countries and Russian poltics are more volatile than most. Just because it hasn't changed for a while, doesn't mean it never will. Only a very young person would think that status quo is forever. But as I said, I don't believe that's feasible in the least.

Like I said I already make a considerable amount of money on this investment so you'll have to excuse me if I'm not regretting this investment. I made over £3000 in one week with a total investment in Russian shares, of £5500. So frankly, I don't care if you think it's stupid.

If you read the British press on investing in Russia, most analysts say this opportunity to invest in Russian shares at rock bottom prices is too good to pass over.
