Safety To All
I successfully got out of the stock market yesterday as hoped. My sitting this morning was pleasantly free of financial concerns and market strategies. Good will was sent to the Guitar Craft community and to the families of the British sailors, one of whom has apologized, after having been ‘questioned.’ I wish safety and strength to all parties involved in this terrifying situation. Having a family member in harm’s way is one of the most stressful life experiences that one can undergo.
The Iranian government is now threatening to put the sailors on trial. I would assume that the jury pool over there has already been contaminated with news stories that contain ‘proof’ of the sailors’ guilt. The judges probably watch Iranian tv as well. The rumor of this possible trial will cause the price of oil to go up and the price of equities to go down on Monday morning. Although I have been waiting for an opportunity to buy a few cheap equities, I would never want to do it at the expense of the British sailors’ life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. I would rather that the sailors get released and that the market stagnates. Here I am thinking about the stock market again…
Safety to all,
I.C.
