Well, gentlemen, what is your forecast now? Will Softbank take long to recover from this set back?
I I may take a stab at it: No. Like in a marathon you either go at a steady pace from the beginning or, in fits and starts, you put on bursts of speed, slow down and watch the world pass you by, but the runner knows....you will see the faces again, huffing and puffing, and pass them again in turn and so the story goes.... Universal history, as the blind librarian in sky said, is the history of a handful of metaphors....
Reading my coffee grounds this morning, I see Messieurs NSSB, having missed the bus and misread its destination, eager to play catch up, setting up roadblocks to slow the pace and clamber on board. We do not like the NCB pebble in the shoe, they say, but we're (still) sticking to our old target they said. Logic so tight, herds of elephants are slipping through.... |
