Final note
The USA and UK committed acts of war against Russia this past week, but the market didn't care for more than a few hours. You can argue the collective of the mainstream are just stupid, in denial, or psychotic. Whatever it is... these are the most dangerous times in human history, or at least since Toba (Indonesian Super Volcano) went boom some 74,000 years ago.
I have regularly ended these weekend posts by asking if you have enough popcorn for the big show. Well, we're likely in the peak of the second act. I just wonder how many of us will make it into the third act.
