moreI am retired apart from managing family investments - mostly equities. I live near Zurich, Switzerland. I keep physically fit by walking and mentally fit with an art hobby and by writing on philosophy, economics and politics as related to cleaning up our polluted planet. My writings are published internationally.
As a retired businessman with a passion for drawing, who has lived on four continents, I long ago started to appreciate the natural beauty that surrounds us - the enormous variety of colours, flora, fauna and topography and the impact that has had on cultures and peoples. Most of us view that beauty without really seeing it and for thousands of years artists have tried to capture it and thus, teach us the art of seeing. My email address is jbhanshaw@gmail. com

QQ looks very ok in many ways but I do not touch anything connected with the military. James

Since writing this article a point has arisen that could adversely affect investors in Grainger - and that includes me - is the threat that near bankrupt local councils in the UK will impose rent controls instead of making it easier to build more properties. That will guarantee the housing crisis gets worse but we must not forget that in British politics the unbelievable has become the norm.
I shall stay with Grainger for now but will also stay on high alert.

Today’s Energy Bottleneck May Bring Down Major Governments
Good article but some points are not correct. For example - "Green energy cannot operate agricultural machinery."
John Deere is now building such machinery fuelled by hydrogen.

All should stay away and let those countries sort out their own mess!

Hopefully the US will keep away and let those that caused these awful events on both sides sort things out for themselves.
Russia has probably little chance of getting involved much via Iran or other ways because it has lowered its might by attacking Ukraine.

I cannot see the UK getting involved as it is near bankruptcy and cannot afford to. Interesting that such a negative can also be a positive!

It is sickening to even read your words about those Hamas doings. Such people are not human and nor are they animals because animals do not do such things. How we rid the world of them and those like them elsewhere I know not but a start would be for a redrawing of that awful map into countries that can live and work together and treat each other as equals.

In this article I mention Britain's housing crisis. Subsequent to publication I found that the BBC has its own series on the awful situtation titled Britain's Housing Crisis - What went wrong?
That further supports my reasons for featuring Grainger, GRI, as a good investment.
