Ha, ha, ha! I knew Detlef would come through.
Let's do this!

Okay.
'What does Detlef say?'
Jesus! Give him a chance, Voice.
Come on, Detlef. In your own time, son.
Detlef?
'Ha!'
Oh, here he is!
Detlef Glow, Head of EMEA Research at Refinitiv Lipper, comments: "The ETF promoter in Europe enjoyed estimated net inflows for August 2022 after the first negative month for the European ETF industry since March 2020. These inflows occurred in a negative and volatile market environment in which investor sentiment was impacted by high inflation rates, increasing interest rates, geopolitical tensions, and disrupted delivery chains caused by the still ongoing The Thing in Europe and other parts of the world."
Well ... it's not ongoing, is it? The Thing.
Never mind.
Thanks, Detlef!

Anything else? Music?
Well ...
How about a SMALL TEN ... eh?
'What's that, boss?'
It's a SMALL TEN.
'Yeah, what is that, FFS?'
It is - or could be - ten great but short pop/rock songs. No longer than three minutes. I've got three so far.
Love Me

To go with my BIG TEN, like.

'What's that, boss?'
Christ, Voice! It's a SMALL TWENTY list I made years ago. 'Oh, okay.' I could probably revise it. I mean, A Hard Day's Night should probably be higher. And We Can Work It Out should definitely be third or fourth.
Anyway ...
Laters, kooks!
Actually, here's a SMALL TEN for the Beatles -
