Laughter beats tears every time

Thanks to George Pitcher (MW last week) for a mature analysis of the aftermath of the tragedies in the US. If only the wider business community were as phlegmatic as the many individuals who refuse to let their lives be destroyed by the senseless and evil acts of a few.

Markets have a horrible tendency to behave like panicked sheep, throwing themselves into a frenzy on the slightest rumour. The world may well change as a result of recent events, but we all, individually and collectively, have a responsibility to get on with our work as best we can.
