Despite the holiday season, the flow of information from politics and the economy remains relatively high. A lot is happening, even if it does not always directly affect the markets we are looking at.
With regard to Afghanistan, we should not forget why Western troops were sent there. It was thought to be beneficial to the security of many countries around the world for them to go. It is frightening that everything that has been achieved in terms of freedom there in recent years may now be lost again within weeks. We can only hope that this will not result in renewed global insecurity in the years to come.
