Okay, okay.
'Boss -'
Voice! Keep that PDF away from me!
'All right.'
We don't need it anyway. We've got the summary. We've got comment from Detlef. What else do we need?
'Nothing!'
We don't need Lucky with his jumble of words! Ha, ha, ha!

'Nice one, Nsikan!'
Here's Detlef -
Detlef Glow, Head of EMEA Research at LSEG Lipper, comments: "February 2024 was another month with healthy inflows for the European ETF industry. These inflows occurred in a further unstable market environment since the geopolitical tensions in Middle East, especially the Red Sea, increased over the course of the month as the European Union sent military ships to protect commercial vessels from the attacks of Houthi rebels. Nevertheless, since a number of shipping companies avoid nowadays the passage of the Suez channel, it is to be expected that the prolonged delivery times will cause some tensions for the still vulnerable delivery chains."
Thanks, man.
'Nice one, Detlef!'

Anything else?
'Nice one, Mikey!'
Shut up, Voice.
Anyway ... poetry?
I finished a new poem at the weekend. Free verse. 52 lines. Roughly 280 words.
So, I have four poems now.
'Four?!'
Yeah.
I've decided ... all the poems I write have got to pass the "Battle of Gaugamela" test. If they don't pass it, they get scrapped.
'Nice one, Mikey!'
Listen, kooks. I've got to think to myself, ask myself: "If this poem was thrown at Darius, would he flee the battlefield?" If the answer is - NO ... the poem must die! It's as simple as that.
'Hardcore!'
Watch the film, just those twenty minutes - if you don't know what I'm talking about.
'Alexander Revisited: The Final Cut.'
That's the one.
'16:00 to 35:50.'
You're so helpful, Voice.
'I know. Ha!'
