Article Mentioned in Chapel: The Next Meltdown

01.17.2007

Here's a link to the recent, brief TIME article that Campus Pastor Randy

Gruendyke mentioned in his chapel address on Wednesday, January 17th which he suggested as a thoughtful conversation starter.

"The article reflects on the financial crisis following the 1914 assassination of Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand and imagines a scenario in which a similar chain of events could happen in 2007. Due to the overall liquidity enjoyed by financial markets worldwide, the author contends that this poses an increased risk for a shutdown akin to the Stock Market Crash of 1929, should political events take a drastic turn."
