As they say "the markets climb a wall of worry" but I am also cautious. But you also have to look that never in relative history has there been so much growth in so many countries. While the U.S. may be worrisome, I think it will still be okay, other countries continue to grow. The falling dollar will help U.S. multinationals.

Being out of the market and trying to time it is a difficult thing to do. I'm a little wary of bio fuels, subsidized by the gov't, that's usually not a good combo but it does help the suppliers in that industry. Cellulosic seems to be a better way than corn or sugar.

If you want something safe, it's hard to beat ADX. It's a closed-end fund trading at a discount with very low fees, very low debt, and a lot of solid names (Microsoft, GE, etc.).

I'm not very optimistic about the market in general, so I'm holding more cash than usual. I've ratcheted up my balance sheet requirements for anything I consider buying.

On those grounds, I still like Relm Wireless (RWC). It's lost 35% this year, mostly due to non-cash expenses. Cash flow and cash on hand are excellent. However, it will have non-cash expenses this quarter also, so I'm not sure the sentiment about the stock will change until later in the year.

I'm up about 5% this year, which is sort of amazing considering Relm was my largest holding. The aforementioned JOB and SNDFF helped quite a bit.

I was watching RWC in the past, that's a nasty chart, looks like next support level might be around the $3 area, looks like it is building a base around here, might be interesting if starts to move up from here.

Are there English websites for investing in South Korea?

I would think that converting money to dollars first would be inefficient. -Jeff
