The Ukraine War is showing us different times. A time before the American Revolution, back to the Middle Ages. A time when feudal lords, with their private soldiers, fought for supremacy.

What today is beginning to crest as a significant political tsunami began just a few months ago as a little pebble tossed into the European pond by former German Chancellor Angela Merkel. It was to be a human interest article by the German Magazine Die Zeit.

Many of us see the Autumn as our favorite time of the year. The humidity and high temperatures are behind us now, and we can enjoy pleasant temperatures and often fair skies. That's how it is in Moscow, Russia, currently. The weather forecast for the rest of September calls for a light breeze, with temperatures in the high 60s and 70s. Napoleon found the same weather when he was there in the Autumn of 1812. He had just conquered most of western Russia and enjoyed September in Moscow. But he stayed too long.

The occasion was the 15th anniversary of the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals. The halfway point of a program that was envisioned to be completed in the year 2030, just over six years from now. That's just the sort of precision investors look for: specific goals with a set time to achieve them.

It's a world in which each "partner" along the way must rely on all the rest. And, if you follow the logic, that's how a local tragedy, like the closing of the neighborhood store, becomes a national financial crisis when up the ladder first the owner, then the lender (banks) aren't paid.
