Does anyone understand finances/insurance? WSJ article

  • The following article has been brought to my attention and the person who did this is very anxious and upset about it, saying it is important.

    Is there anyone who can agree that this is bad news - or is it not so important?  Guess it needs an interpretation/explanation.

    Any help in this regard would be appreciated.

    Original article was in the Wall Street Journal for Monday, August 7.
    If any one saith that true and natural water is not of necessity for baptism, and on that account wrests to some sort of metaphor those words of Our Lord Jesus Christ, "Unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Ghost...,"  Let Him Be Anathama.  -COUNCIL OF TRENT Sess VII Canon II “On Baptism"

  • The market doesn't seem to like it - MetLife (ticker: MET) is down 13% over the last few days and Brighthouse Financial (ticker: BHFWV) is in the same boat.

    It looks like the market considers it bad news. But who knows? - maybe next week it'll have a completely different reaction.
