My logic is that "the meteor always misses the planet", so when people panic over Greece or Italy or some other silly country, I think to myself "How will the possible risk of a Greek exit from the Euro and political unrest affect Ryman's ability to sell retirement units to the queues of people lining up at the Evelyn Page village in Warkworth? And then I buy.... :-) Two weeks later, everyone has forgotten about Greece, and Ryman is up 5%.
