Robert, I think it was you who (erroneously ) started talking about Zimbabwe. 

Then, stock market performance doesn't have anything to do with the percentage 
of retail/small shareholders as such. Have you had a look at what percentage of 
shares on the LUSE is held by institutional investors vs retail investors, and 
done the same for the other stock markets that you list? 


Like Facebook says: It's complicated.
