So, I'm ecstatic that the stock market is doing well. The value of certain companies has returned to a reasonable level. And most stocks are backed by valuable treasures of some sort. That said, there are certain companies that are like giant deflated rafts...and this is kind of like I feel certain days. Plowing ahead, doing something remotely productive, yet leaving out the kind of work that really needs to be done. Without mentioning any names, there are companies that have the size and stability to really be movers and shakers, yet they show lethargy. The lethargy isn't in a traditional sense. No. The big players have been turning out news. What they may be lacking is closer to home. A sort of humanity and customer service. Again, not a problem with the workers, but a lack thereof, maybe a poor handling of them and their tools, business and toolbox. A skeleton crew can take things only so far. The stocks of these giants however, show unlikely optimism, again and again. Didn't the banking crisis of 2008 prove that bigger isn't always better. That a large company must remain honest to its roots and keep working at the foundation of its profits. To the point, I'm happy with the way the market is, "giants throwing stones at 1 another," as in a favorite novel "The Hobbit." Again, to the point, keep your metaphorical saw sharp, and don't confuse action with a sharp saw.
I'm taking down my internet shop while I visit Grandma and Grandpa. The thing is, my company is like a miniature "too big to fail" company. I have underlying assets and practices, and it's exciting to run a small business, kind of like an inflatable raft, yet the giant inflatable raft hasn't been inflated. It's a "Giant Deflated Raft."
Still, I'm happy with it and it will be brought back with new products added and a fresh look to the website.
On chance you might purchase from me in the future, know you will get 1st rate customer service and top notch products built with sharp saws. I'll bring sales back online in May 2015.
