I didnt know rogers owned mainland shares. i thought he only owned taiwanese shares.

he has vacillated too often, for my taste, on key issues. perhaps "in the long run" he'll be correct, but i fail to see how anyone can go long commodities in the face of collapsing BA's and general run on credit.

also, i thought he got rid of all his dollars already?
