Good Evening, Well Kim Jong “Dung”‘ is at it again! The idiot is obsessed with obliterating the world. I’m sure my bothers and sisters in the military can handle that threat. However, that does not make our portfolios immune to the ill effect that North Korea’s irresponsible behavior has on the market. The market sold off in the morning and attempted an early afternoon bounce, but investors gave up and started selling again when it was obvious that things were going nowhere. Also adding to the negative sentiment was hurricane Irma which was upgraded to a category 5 storm and now looks likely to strike the US. On top of it all it’s September! Mom said there’d be days like this….. At any rate my view on North Korea is just like anything else. If and when my charts tell me to sell I will sell. If North Korea some how manages to start the Nuclear War that they are begging for, I doubt that my money will be safe anywhere. Before you say I’m crazy just remember one thing. China holds a lot of US currency. Can you imagine what will happen to the value of the dollar if they dump it all at once…. just a thought. Now I’m not sure that would be the case but my point is this. You might as well invest it because there is no guarantee that your dollars will be worth much in a world gone mad anyway. Not even if they are under your mattress….  No, I read the back of my dollar….. I will continue to trust in God and watch my charts. That is what I have always done and that is what I will always do. Our God is bigger than all of this. Psalms 9:9-10 says “The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. Those who know your name will trust in you , for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you.” Pray and seek Him!!!
