From everything that I know about russian politics, and I am russian, my reading of the situation is that this will not happen. Mechel will get out of this with a slap on the wrist.shaxmatisthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07220757563758396222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335748440449035592.post-91903438769117475722008-07-28T09:38:00.000-04:002008-07-28T09:38:00.000-04:00Tripled my MTL position this morning at $20.50. <BR/><BR/>A gamble, but with high reward potential.
