Not much point wasting time on vcr unsubstantiated and simplistic negative statements - as I stated before the truth is a bit more complicated...Mitsubishi was helpful and supportive in the commodities boom and backed CNQ/SEI in 2013 - 14... and did changed the tack on commodities downturn... after substantial losses and have decided to turn their attention to other fields ...but funny thing is that recently they are on the "hot run" thanks to big profits on the ... unloved commodity - coal investment, they were not able to unload few years ago...
so if the experts have so much trouble picking the trends and their investments what chance do we have as a individual investors (including "vcr" with his ailing TNG and GWR investments)?
Anyhow it would be good if vcr spent more time reading the important stuff before commenting eg:
