Stranger

Saw an interview sometime ago.
Amusing to hear what he'd told.
His Honesty as good as Gold.

Markets fell like mad.
Asked if it's time to invest.
His advice was to avoid the Trap.

The Interviewer persisted in asking,
If it's time for long term Investing.
He repeatedly said NO when replying.

The UK share index,
He had stressed,
Fell from 7,000 to 5,000 more or less.

Almost a 30% fall,
During a period of 12 years in all.
Long term investment became a dead call.

Reminding the Great Depression Fall,
Causing the economies of all,
To recover only 24 years later in 1954!

A Honest UK Fund Manager,
Warning everyone of the Great Danger.
To me, he is the Best Stranger.
