Stock markets look to open very strongly today after the announcement of a ceasefire between the United States, Israel and Iran. It looks like it will be quite a positive day for the markets. In my opinion, nothing has been resolved with Iran, and it’s difficult to know where markets will go.

In terms of long-term strategy, my question is: what has all this accomplished, and is it just a break in the action? I don’t know. But I have several objectives to achieve that have been imposed on me as a result of my attempt to emigrate from Canada. None of which I have dealt with because of the stickiness of taking long-term decisions with what I believe to be incomplete information.

I continue to resist creating an investment policy statement to guide me through this. And I am suffering severe indecisiveness.
