first things first, tonight...
to folks who trade in the 'stock market':
please take a breather away from the edge of 'panic' until the 'dust
settles'.
do not try to interpret anything that will transpire as 'indicating' what it
is that you 'should' do.
what you should do is the same as it always is... invest in companies that
make strong efforts to be absolutely forthright while producing Honorable
products, and supporting their customers' needs and hopes.
as i did, in another online 'place', about 18 months ago, i advise you,
again, to resolve to act with determined steadiness... don't jump on
anything, don't bail out of anything... 'just' be patient.
it's summertime. take a vacation. Love your Children and your
Wives/Husbands. take 'a breather'. 'smell the roses.'
...think about what you'll do =after= the 'dust has settled'.
for now, just 'lay-back'.
i ask those who are in positions to do so to grant any extensions that are
necessary to investors that've gotten themselves into trouble.
there'll be another day to earn a buck.
for now, the thing to do is to put on thoughtful care with an eye to the
long-term.
