Depends on what you consider to be a "military response", but USA has already mobilised a military presence in South Korea, sent a battleship fleet and today it's is reported that the response to North Korea's ICBM test is ... "US and South Korean forces, in response, engineered what was meant as a show of force for Pyongyang, with soldiers from the allied nations firing "deep strike" precision missiles into South Korean territorial waters. The missile firings on Tuesday (Wednesday, NZ time) demonstrated US-South Korean solidarity, the US Eighth Army said in a statement."

TBH I doubt whether NK has ICBMs. The pics they released looked highly suspect, clearly photoshopped. And are we to seriously believe San Peng ("3 fat" in Chinese, their nickname for Kim Jong-Un) sat outside near the missile launch with binoculars while also looking at computer monitors? Missile test are notoriously fraught with issues, which he knows and I doubt he would have put himself anywhere near it. Reeks of scare mongering to me - a well known and effective method of scaring the US. Really, just look at these pics with clear eyes... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017...koreas-latest/

Korea is not a problem for NZ shares, but might make buying opportunities... Hopefully

Starting to understand the name for this thread. I love these black Mondays as well, with red arrows turning into black numbers . Wish we would have them several times a week.
Ah well, not that I had problems with too many red arrows before, but a number of my stocks nicely appreciated (or had at least a move in the right direction). Good day to hold retirement stocks as well! Maybe a sign for the AB's ?

I really do worry what's going to happen if Labour win an election in partnership with NZ First and the Greens. At the moment its looking very close.

Seeing instability across many topical fields. Some global unrest (whats new) but the big picture seems to have eased back on both growth and expansion. Caution required.
