My Cabot Oil & Gas (COG) has risen to $17.84 which made it the best performer last week on US markets according to Barron's. I sometimes do buy American stocks like COG. In my opinion the duo now will move to expand in other regions of the USA with deals to come. The pair both are running out of productive holdings but there is plenty of oil and gas still around the country they can nab.

Another winner last week which is more typical of my holdings is MXCHF, the drip-feed company which has kept its old name for the ADR, I know not why. It rose by nearly 18% but it only trades very occasionally as Orbia, its new name not yet added to the ADR. 

Abimanyu is in favor because Dr Reddy's (RDY) gained 0.6% last week, as India rolled out new healthcare plans. India is a gainer as Chairman Xin tackles the alternatives to Communism. Fanuc, FANUY, is up 3.5% and Japan is flourishing in part because of worries about the crackdown on Chinese tech.

I am still having trouble with my laptops which conked out in England, although my ancient desktop computer is performing admirably. I think the laptops are still holding out for British internet.
