This company, while speculative, looks to be a good bet for the long pull to 2014. The company is essentially opening clones of Costco in Central America. There is theoretical political risk, currency risk, and cyclicality. However, the only store I see in a more "dicey" area is the site in Nicaragua. I believe nearly 30% of the company's sales are in US $ - the other sales are (hopefully) matching their expenses in the native countries. The fact that there are roughly 25 stores in 11 countries gives some geographic diversification
