a quote "investors are avoiding the volatile Spanish, Irish and UK markets and are heading for the stability of the emerging Europe" ... amazing... but true... This is a paraphrase of a quote from the FT and as well as being a view expressed in the trade journals. But consider this - Bulgaria (not the coast, but Sofia) is now believed to be lower risk than Western Europe. Is it true? Well, I don't know - but that is an amazing 're-evaluation of risk'... ...incredibly the risk emerging Europe turns out to be the safe haven after all? Okay, I'm pushing it to make the point - but that is a 180 degree turn around. Right? Cheers Neil

I totally agree with your comments on Slovakia - been banging on in the same vein on here for ages! Huw

Huw - just goes to show that if you stick to what you believe in, remember the fundamentals in place,and don't get too concerned about short term positions, it pays off. I agree that Slovakia has great medium term - long term prospects.

Im with you on this have looked at other areas but the fundamentals are so good. I think this will lift the country as a whole and not just Bratislava.
