history. The biggest mutual fund in America lost a third of its value in two days. Its manager was in Ireland, on a golf course, and he stayed there.
His name is Peter Lynch. Running Fidelity Magellan, he averaged nearly 29% a year and built it into the largest fund in the country. He had already watched the market fall nine separate times in his thirteen years there, and his fund fell right along with it every time.
He was not calm because he ignored the numbers. He knew them cold. Over 93 years the market had 50 drops of 10% or more, one about every two years. Fifteen were full bear markets, 25% or worse. To Lynch that was not danger. It was weather.
Then the part that should change how you invest. Walmart went public in 1970 with fifteen years of results already on the books. Buy at the IPO and you made 500 times your money. Miss it completely and buy a full decade late, you still made 30 times. The company did the work. The timing barely mattered.

In the USA, a Muslim person was performing namaz by spreading a mat behind a car in a parking lot. Then ICE agents arrived. As soon as the namaz finished, they checked his documents and took him into custody.
Now he will be sent back to his country. There he can pray as much namaz as he wants. No one will come to stop him. That is the right place for him.

An American Airlines passenger was restrained with duct tape and zip ties after an alleged outburst about two hours into a flight from Dallas-Fort Worth to Newark.
Witnesses said the chaos erupted when a man began yelling at a male passenger next to him.
The man was reportedly screaming about Jesus and going to hell, prompting a flight attendant to walk over and attempt to calm the situation.
The man allegedly called the flight attendant, who is Black, a racial slur and also shouted anti-gay remarks. He also reportedly became violent, hitting the passenger next to him.
A female passenger jumped in to help, but the man pushed her, leading to three other male passengers stepping in.
The flight was diverted to Baltimore, where law enforcement took the man into custody.
