Earthquakes--
Earthquakes are interesting.They show up with no warning.
With all of the knowledge and data that we have about our beloved earth, we have no idea how to predict when an earthquake will hit.
At best we can only know the reasons why they occur.
The same is true for financial earthquakes.
We have a Godzilla amount of data about our financial markets.
We know that they sometimes crash.
We have no way to predict when, where, or why.
We only know that they happen.
The 5.6 magnitude earthquake that rocked Oklahoma last night is a good reminder to everyone.
Average markets, average weather conditions, and average earth movements don't cause ruin.
It is the statistically improbable event that creates ruin for people.
We live in interesting times.
