The greed from profiteers may well stop here and due to Bulgaria causing the market to drop like a lead weight. Gambling and to me that is what this is with investing involves risks. With the warning signs being there for quite a while now regarding the collapse of this inflated commodity due to recent greed. Good luck if you could afford to lose the money you invested, if you can't, that's gambling summed up for you!<br />
