Sitting In The Crow's Nest

Ready, arm & Wait

Interesting week, eh? I’d say so. Not only did the stocks I’ve recommended perform well, but the results from our Iranian constituents came in as expected. I’ve had the ability to react with many Iranians over my lifetime. There’s something about how they’ve reacted that doesn’t meet my expectations, but that’s me. I’ll leave it up to the fact that, like others, from the Middle East, they are immigrants. They stick together, especially those that hav ended up in the Los Angeles area. I hope they stop voting for the Democratic Party, but then again, I’m sure there is a control factor entrenched in that decision.

How About That Crow’s Nest

In a way, it’s just like the song I’ve chosen, “Tommy”. I guess I’d have to change the name to “Donald”. All of the ammunition has been spent. The best course of action, in my opinion, is to do nothing. Keep the Strait of Hormuz closed and hope the Iranians don’t start offloading their excess oil into the waterway. It could happen, so that is one thing to be aware of.

Bombing the hell out of the remaining targets is a possibility, but if it were my choice, I’d figure out a way to put a warm gun into the hands of the population at large. I’m a very happy person and a believer in the 2nd Amendment. It’s being proven every day. If we can arm the population, Iran and its rulers would collapse, and that’s what we want, right?

Regardless, an all-out war seems to be illogical at this time. Simply waiting for what’s next to happen seems best to me. The mosquito fleet of what’s let in the Iranian Navy is just not a big enough worry for our country’s defense. I just wish they showed a few more pictures of these boats and their doomed skippers blowing up as they are hit in open waters.

One More To Watch

I’m going to add one more stock to the list of buy low, sell high opportunities. I’ve been pretty good at picking “what’s next”. Yeah, I’m usually a little early and may be so here, but what the hell, enjoy CoreWeave (“CRWV”).

I’m old enough to remember when The Who, singing “Tommy,” was a new hit song. You might be, too, but as mentioned above, it could be renamed “Donald”. It’s been a long time coming, but face it, we need to get guns to the population in Iran so they can overthrow their government. That’s all we need to do. Let’s hope it is happening. Then, with a little help from the Israeli and U.S. government, we might actually be able to get Iran to cry out “Uncle”.
