Looks like money laundering to me.
Now I’m kinda suspicious of the real Olivet-Nazarene university just down the road. Maybe this fake college system is stealing their name to add an air of legitimacy.
They don’t look to be associated with these organizations.
But I don’t think I like them either.
Financial crash coming soon?
As bad as 2008, or…worse?
Ah, herein lies a subtlety in the observation. The answer the machine is giving is: “I don’t know”. The uncertainty is so high, that it says it can’t make a move that meets the criteria it has been given for an acceptably low risk outcome.
That doesn’t say the markets are going to be bad, or good. Just that for all its analytic prowess, it doesn’t know.
As a human, you have the “is that a False Sabretooth Tiger there in the dark?” reaction. That’s the safer response (there’s evidence they used to eat us) but tends to be pessimistic.
Buffet always said not to bet against 
. As I said to a colleague in 2017, the country is wildly economically productive, rich in resources, and full of relatively well educated people with, on the whole, good intentions. I predicted that the coming years would be tough, but that would come through it a better place.
I still believe that.

… for now…
You probably have other things to do, but Different Seasons was a solid collection of four mostly non-supernatural novellas. (He slips in one non-horror but uncanny story at the end.) Not certain how you’d compare/judge the characterizations, but it’s probably some of his stronger work in that area. ‘Twas the source for the films Shawshank Redemption, Stand by Me, and Apt Pupil.
Good to know, thank you!
Probably.
