FTR: Article 5 of NATO's charter, stating that an attack against one is an attack against all, has only been invoked once: in defense of the U.S. after 9/11. Hundreds of European soldiers died in Afghanistan. Highest loss per capita: Denmark.

I'm not telling you how to feel about it, just what is.

"Success is the ability to go from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm" -- attributed, probably incorrectly, to Churchill; nevertheless, a good quote.

Take "taster" positions, adding as your knowledge grows and the stock earns it. Be indifferent to quickly taking modest losses on that which doesn't inspire greater conviction.

When I was a kid, the GOP opposed centralized top-down economic planning. They argued for strong limits on the federal government's influence on commercial matters, favoring market forces to drive production, investment, compensation, and the allocation of resources and capital.

Times change.
