IT appears that not everyone is happy about the ongoing success of clinical trials for the various COVID-19 vaccines which are under development.
There was a major sell-off of gun manufacturers on the US stock market overnight after the release of promising preliminary data from Pfizer's vaccine trial, which found it was 90% effective.
Investors who had been banking on increased unrest were also discouraged by the clear result in the US election.
Smith & Wesson fell more than 9% in trading, similar to rival Sturm Ruger & Co, while ammunition retailer Vista Outdoor slumped 12%.
THere was also some good news for residents of Washington state in the US - it's now possible to compost dead bodies there, as an alternative to burial or cremation.
The state's first legal corpse composting company, with a website appropriately named recompose.life, is now taking bookings under a new law which allows bodies to be placed in a receptacle along with other organic material to speed up the decomposition process.
The site promises customers the opportunity to "become soil when you die," providing an end-of-life option that strengthens the environment rather than depleting it.
Each person who chooses the new option saves one metric ton of CO2 from entering the atmosphere.
