Schnauser,

You bring up many factors which every investor needs to consider when developing their portfolio and investment.

However, there are always such risks when investing and always will be. I have been doing this since I was 34 and will turn 60 this year. I do not feel the current environment is any more or less of a risk than normal for a new entry such as Poet. There is never the perfect time, but overall I feel the time is right for what Poet has to offer!

Looking ahead, whether it be one, three, five, ten years.... now is as good as ever, and the world will always progress over the long term, no matter what setbacks may occur.
