  • “Sleep Through the Static” Good Morning, I Trust Everyone Had A
    “Sleep through the static” Jack Johnson Good morning, I trust everyone had a restful weekend As offices and businesses continue to open, the kids get back to their school “routines” and the days are getting shorter, I was reminded on the weekend of the importance of sleep that we ALL need to keep at the forefront of our priority list. Remember, if we take care of ourselves first, we can have the peace of mind that’ll enable us all to take care of each other. For those interested in the importance and science of sleep, here’s a really interesting book for some fall reading…..Matthew Walker, Why We Sleep: The New Science of Sleep and Dreams. “AMAZING BREAKTHROUGH! Scientists have discovered a revolutionary new treatment that makes you live longer. It enhances your memory and makes you more creative. It makes you look more attractive. It keeps you slim and lowers food cravings. It protects you from cancer and dementia. It wards off colds and the flu. It lowers your risk of heart attacks and stroke, not to mention diabetes. You’ll even feel happier, less depressed, and less anxious” Matthew Walker, Why We Sleep: The New Science of Sleep and Dreams Now to the markets….. Global equity markets experienced some jitteriness over the past week, following through on some of the weakness that began the week before, full of noise and static. We provide a bit more colour on the recent action and address the growing importance of the technology sector. We also provide an update on the coronavirus front, with particular attention paid to the rising trend of cases in various parts of the world, including Canada, and a setback on one of the vaccines being explored in a late stage trial.
