Russia: A Fantastic Investment Destination

Something has happened in the Kremlin, the attitude has changed. they used to just shoot you or put you in jail or take your money if they did not like you. That has changed, I am not quite sure why.

They also have vast resources in Russia. It is not a big debtor nation like Spain or America, it has a balance of trade surplus in most years, so it could be a fantastic investment destination if they have the right attitude.

If Trump Imposes Chinese Tariffs, Sell Everything

If Donald Trump imposes a huge tariff on Chinese imports, you better sell everything you have in your portfolio, because it will cause serious problems. Trade wars cause you have economic turmoil, economic downturns and recessions and many times even bankruptcy. (FTSE/Xinhua China 25 Index ETF (FXI), SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY))

Investing In Russia

I was already bullish and invested in the Russian stock market before Donald Trump was elected. I had been investing there over the last few years. Donald Trump is going to be friendlier with Russia and that is obviously an enormous change and it is likely that you are going to see all major countries removing sanctions.
