I think most of us have had our portfolios take a few hits. My husband and myself have taken the sit still and wait for the market come back to its seances approach. I don't know if that makes us Bulls or bears. Except our last name is Bull so that makes us Bulls all of the time. Here in Alexandria VA. we are our market moving at a steady well priced pace. I honestly can't tell the Bulls from the Bears any more. The stock Market losses points it gains and the world still goes on.
But, here's where the hawk and squirrel part comes in. As I waited for a mechanic to come out to give me an estimate(That's another Blog.) I heard squirrel chattering in a most annoyed way. There was also a bird screeching. I looked up in a tree. A hawk and a squirrel were both in the same tree. I know most people see squirrels as not the smartest of woodland crashers. But, the squirrel kept its self very close to the hawk. The hawk kept trying to spread it's wings. In a tree it couldn't. It would hop from branch to branch. The squirrel would clime right after it. That simple squirrel figured out, that if it wanted to avoid being squirrel chow it should stay close to that bird. I know there is a lesson for us there. We just have to learn it. What do you think?
The squirrel, is the suburban bridge pigeon. The bridge pigeon is the cities rat with wings. The rat, is a squirrel without the furry tail...........................................but it's not as dim as we thought.
