A Wandering Trader           It was a humid night in the Paris streets.   The air seemed to stick to you; surround you like a blanket.   It was unusual weather for the middle of April.   Despite the humid air and warm sun, Chance walked down Quai Branly street on his way to meet his longtime friend, Philip, by the Eiffel tower.   Chance had met this friend about two years ago at a Billie Eilish concert in ce...
