Let's do some buying and selling with Avtovaz.
K, How about I buy 5% for ~385m
Since its our first trading we can approach a little cautiously (e.g., not spend all our money). Also, a little purchase will less affect the stock price artificially for our buy (the bigger the % you buy at one time, the more it will cost you- I think).

If that all sounds good, I'll make the buy during my lunch, let a quarter pass, and post updates. Then we can decide whether to continue holding or sell quick.
Also, think of any other research you may want me to execute- I can get it done too.

Also, as a warning: I will not panic sell. If things turn south, I'll finish the quarter up and wait for instructions from ya'll:-) This could get bloody!

That's good. Also, let's see if we can get some research on the software or video game industry, for when we have a good amount of cash.

Well, you know how if you take your thumb and forefinger and hold them up to your eye, you can make it look like you're squishing someone's head? It's like that, only for real.

Some action:
As instructed, I buy 5% of Avtovaz Motors
Spoiler: Initiating the buy (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Purchase confirmation (click to show/hide)

Our position after the buy:
Spoiler: Portfolio (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Financial Statement (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Tax info (click to show/hide)

I let time pass.
Avtova Motors' quarterly statement is issued on March 27.


Spoiler: Avtovas Motor Quarterly Report (click to show/hide)
Minor losses. Oiy...
Here is the worse problem:
Spoiler: Research Report on AVTO (click to show/hide)
Notice the current stock price: 52.24
We bought at 73.29
52.24<73.29  :-\

Spoiler: AVTO Financial Info (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: AVTO quicklook (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: Auto-Europe Industry Info (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Auto-Europe Industry Projection (click to show/hide)

So... we are down.
I advise we hang in, hold the stock, and weather the storm.
Another option would be to sell now, get out of the situation, but at a big loss.
Alternatively, we can buy in more while the stock is down, hope that maybe our action prompts a price jump and growth- and reap the benefits later. I do not advise this action.
The other option, which I do not think we have the resources to pull off, would be to influence the stock price with a third party.


Other requested info:

And

ALSO:
By the time I finished gathering all the research, AVTO stock dropped to ~45.

We should either wait it out, or sell and see what we can do with Oracle Systems.

Heh, AVTO was your investment initiative and you want to bail out already?  :P
I won't be able to take the action for a couple hours - so anyone else can give their input until then.
