Gloibal expert visits Central Europe & Russia (CEE)
2008-02-29 07:00:00 "Central Europe & Russia Fund (quote.htm?sym=cee) (NYSE: CEE (quote.htm?sym=cee)) is a closed-end fund that invests in Central and Eastern Europe, Russia, and Turkey," says global expert Nick Lanyi (ccount/click.php?id=1787).In his industry-leading High Yield International (ccount/click.php?id=1787), the advisors explains, ""Its diversification, high yield and top-notch management team make it the best high-income play on the region today." Plus, he adds, "Now is a particularly great time to invest in these regions." "The fund's largest country allocation (about 50% of assets) actually is to Russia, not Eastern Europe. I consider that a plus, because it gives investors exposure to Eastern Europe's strengths, but with the valuable ballast of an accompanying investment in Russia's natural resources sector. "Prominent Russian natural resource firms Lukoil, Gazprom, and Norilsk Nickel account for about a quarter of the fund's total assets. With the prices of energy and m...

Kin Hubbard said: ?It is pretty hard to tell what does bring happiness; poverty and wealth have both failed.? Is traveling and meeting up with friends perhaps what it is all about?
A romantic's guide to Central Europe
2007-08-15 12:24:00 For a honeymoon destination with a difference, consider Central Europe. Adam McCulloch discovers some of its most romantic spots. Central Europe used to be like two single hotel beds separated by a chest of drawers: the west on one side, the east on the other and an iron curtain to keep them apart. Thankfully, the curtain is down and romance is well and truly in the air. With some of the most dramatic scenery on the continent, and far fewer tourists than France and Italy, Central Europe is in the midst of a renaissance. Go while the secret is still safe. Romance on the German roadsHire a car in Frankfurt and, after a quick blast down the Autobahn, take a meandering 300km drive from Wurzburg to Fussen at the base of the Bavarian Alps. You're driving on the aptly named Romantische Strasse (Romantic Road) and it's one of the most breathtaking drives in the world. Almost every town is like a fairytale - the walled city of Rothenburg has cobblestone streets, half-timbered homes and an...
