I'm Thinking Of Poland!

Happy 4th of July. I'm thinking of Poland. The Poland ETF is one of the best performing of the year. Up 38%. And up over 50% since Trump was elected. Why? Is Trump Polish? Or is it because:

1. Burek is the popular name for a dog in Poland. It means mongrel.
2. Poles marry the youngest in the European Union.
3. In Poland the first floor is regarded as "0" so you press "1" when you want to go to the second floor in the elevator. (Their math is correct. Set a ruler on the ground and take a look.)
4. Poles are gentlemen. Poland is one of the few countries in the world where courteous hand kissing is still a common practice.

So maybe it is because Trump has small hands and is more of a mongrel than a gentleman that folks are investing in Poland.
