What's going on? Hey, Tom. Nice to talk to you again. And I have to start out and first tell you, I love this trading room. This thing is great. This app works great, and getting all the information, you're like instantly there. No delay, nothing. I know. I appreciate you growling proud with us. Your channel is in my pocket all day long. It's wonderful. Thank you, man. Thank you. Now, Tom O'Brien. What's going on, everyone? This is Jacob, filling in for Tom O'Brien. Our number is 877-927-6648. If you want to send me an email, you can do that at jacobatfnn.com. Let's see what we got on the cards today. This says, whatever people do, feel, think, or say, don't take it personally. Others are going to have their own opinion according to their belief system. So whatever they think about you is not about you, but is about them. Okay, today we have all the indices up. It's actually a good day. The down zone industrial is up 1.48. The NASDAQ is up 2.13, which is breaking a very long-term downtrend. We have the SPX up 1.82%. Regarding some of the other indices, we have the Qs up 2.17, the GDX up 3.73, and we actually have the dollar where we got dollars down almost 1%. So this is pretty interesting. This kind of focused around the dollar, right? I think we had a little bit of a pop recently. It reached up to 1.10, which is pretty huge. That brought a lot of down pressure in the market in general. What I think this is is the market itself pricing in what they believe the interest rate increase will be in September. I think the market believes that we're going to have about a 75 basis point increase, and that's getting extended into November meeting, which will be, with the market things, about 50 basis points, and there's no real consensus for December. So we've priced in September. We might see a bounce in the dollar over the next month as they're pricing in November as we get closer to that. And as I said, December is still up in the air. However, Powell has come out and said that there is a need to go beyond the neutral rate to create kind of a contraction within the market. Additionally, the ECB raises their interest rate by a 75 basis points, and the Bank of Canada do the same as well. So the major economic players in the world are trying their best to kind of crush inflation. We'll see what happens. Bill Ackman of Pershing Capital said he was actually happy with the Fed under control. He actually has a 4% target rate for Fed fund rates, which is certainly a little high, that's what his analysis are looking at. But there is kind of a positive with that when he says that once inflation gets crushed in this way, that he sees a huge upside for equities. So come December, seeing what happens and if these interest rate increase actually does crush inflation, we might have a good start to 2023. We'll see about that. To this day, I think we have an increase of 2.5% total of increase. So in that same realm, we have mortgage applications down last month, hitting a 22-year low. This is massive. I know Toronto and Canada as a whole was also having issues with it. So we're going to see a slowing in the real estate sector. What that means on the long term is kind of yet to be seen. But I do expect that we're going to probably continue to see interest rates go up. This again will bring down pressure in the market. This is going to affect other things as the dollar goes up, affect other kind of stores of value, such as gold. We actually haven't seen gold get hit extraordinarily hard, especially seeing the dollar go up to 110. It's been holding above the 1,700 level. Your other cryptos are going to obviously get smashed with this. Gold seems to have a far better time holding its position in the wake of a rising dollar. What do we want to talk about today? Well, I think what's interesting for all us to note is the climate clean energy bill that's going through that Congress has passed. I think additionally in that same vein, we can talk about the CHIP Act. So the New York Times came out with an article. See if I can get this pulled up for you. Let's see. So this is the clean energy project surged after the climate bill passage. What essentially is going to happen here? Obviously, the Biden administration is putting forth a lot of money to rejuvenate the American economy. I could actually see, when you look at what happened in the Great Depression, how did we get out of it? So obviously, industrialization helped massive, these big spending expenditures help this get out. So there's surge in announcements for opening up new plants. We have Toyota, who's trying to open up $2.5 billion dollars in battery factories, Honda, $4.4 billion somewhere in the states that's yet to be determined. Piedmont Lithium is looking to process Lithium in Tennessee. This is going to help us get off of the Chinese supply, which will be massive, and really make us a big player. Last time I was on, I spoke about Saudi Arabia being huge in Lithium. That's still going to be the case. And I wonder what kind of alliance we'll have with that, right? So a lot of the oil prices historically, with at least in, I'd say, probably the past seven years before COVID, has been a lot of America and Saudi Arabia operating together to keep oil at a certain price per barrel. Now, of course, that had to do a lot with competing against Russia and pricing them out. It'll be interesting to see if Saudi Arabia and America can strike an alliance on that. This says, in the week since President Biden signed a comprehensive climate bill, devised a spur investment in electric cars and clean energy. Corporations have announced a series of big-ticket projects to produce the kind of technology the legislation aims to promote. As I said, Toyota will invest an additional 2.5 billion in a factory in North Carolina to produce batteries for electric cars and hybrids. Honda and LG Energy Solution announced a joint venture to build a 4.4 billion battery factory at a location to be named. We have massive dependence on Chinese refineries. What we're seeing, I think, in this evolving landscape, globally speaking, is we have some, as a nation, have some insecurities regarding our supply chains, right? We saw in COVID, it was something like 92% of the pharmaceuticals we have are offshore. And so the lithium that we use is offshore as well. Even chip sales we'll get to later. Two-thirds of those are produced by Taiwan. As the globe kind of shakes up a little bit and we have some schisms going on, obviously with Russia and the global East in general, this is gonna be a big move that not only rejuvenates or rather makes a secure place for America, but it can also rejuvenate the economy. First Solar is gonna get in on this. Well, we can talk about that when we get back. They wanna invest up to $1.2 billion to build its fourth factory in the United States. So when we get back, we can speak about solar a little bit more and how this announcement with the Renewable Energy Act has actually done quite a bit of good things regarding some of the solar ETFs. Again, the number is 877-927-6648. Send me an email if you want me to take a look at anything, that's Jacob at TFN.com and we'll be right back. Time of glooming inflation. We are purchasing powers eroded. There's no better place to protect your hard-earned money than in gold. Vista Gold's flagship asset is the Mount Todd Gold Project in the Northern Territory of Australia. This is Australia's largest undeveloped gold project. We are talking a world-class gold project in a tier one mining district. This is a large-scale, low-cost project with significant existing infrastructure in a politically safe and friendly mining jurisdiction. Vista Gold just completed the Mount Todd Feasibility Study, which resulted in a 7 million-ounce gold reserve in a 16-year mine life. All of this combined with the approvals of all major operational, as well as environmental permits. This distinguishes Mount Todd as an attractive, diverse partner, ready-development stage gold project. Vista Gold trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol VGZ.

First Solar said it would like to invest up to 1.2 billion to build its fourth factory in the United States, probably somewhere in the Southeast. Essentially what's happening in this bill is they're making these large economic corridors that are making some states far more palatable to build factories in. This could actually be really huge for the South. Obviously, a lot of economic dead zones in that area. And this isn't just like a supplementary sector. This is gonna be huge. I mean, you look at, it's like California who wanna ban gas vehicles and of course you can have whatever opinion you want on the validity of that. However, there is an effort to do so. By 2035, we could see a lot of other states follow. And these areas that start early in producing kind of these more renewable technologies can really take off. So if we look over here at the chart, we have First Solar. You see, this is up 5.27% today of all this. And really the past month, it's been climbing steadily with some pretty decent volume as well. So we look at the big kind of ETF they have for Solar, which is tan. It's a good joke. We had at 6.11% as we're moving. Again, big volume to the upside. A little bit of inside trading here, but not insider trading. Just within a balance. What else do we have? We have end phase energy. Obviously a little bit lower volume, but we can see a general trend of Solar getting a lot of attention in this market. I think a lot still has to be seen with how effective Solar will be. However, I am of the opinion that we can throw money just about anything and it'll work. And I think on the long term, at least the movement towards more sustainable energy is a good move. Of course, you know, from the other time I filled in, I'm big on uranium. However, I think I'll be part of the portfolio. What else? We also have Solar Edge technology. A lot of the same stuff. This popped up pretty impressively. Follows a little bit differently than the other charts. We have a big red bar down here on high volume and kind of low volume all the way down. And we've got to jump up on some higher volume than relatively but not this big last down day. We'll see what happens with that. Let's see what else we have here today. So I think I guess in the same vein we can talk about the chips that's going on. Again, as I said before the last break, we have a major issue with producing. Chips run everything. A lot of the times, especially recently in the past few years with how expensive the supply chains have gotten, we've been using older generation chips. This has been a major issue. What America has done for a while is produce the most cutting edge ideas and concepts and then obviously we outsource them out. That worked out for a while. Obviously you have discrepancies in prices which makes it cheaper in the domestic market. You have things that compare to the advantage. But since we're seeing this kind of aggression from China and a lot of pretty aggressive comments regarding Taiwan, I think it is in our best interest that we move away from this. Two thirds of all semiconductors and chips are developed in Taiwan. Now again, we develop all the designs for it. Then we outsource it. Of course, if something bad happens with China regarding Taiwan, we're not in a great position. They're the second largest economy in the world. They have an immense military. It's going to be a little difficult for us if they invade. This is going to be good. Let's see what's going on with that. The chip, we're going to have $50 billion injected into it. Again, I was reading that this is going to be something within the continental south. We'll see what happens with that. But again, this will be a nice injection into the economy. These are real tangible things that are being developed. I think it will be decent for us. This could get us out of a relatively inflationary situation and actually get us out positively on the other side. If you look at some of the chip stocks we have, this is the Van Ech ETF semiconductor. We're up 2.10%. There's not a lot of action, I would say, currently in this sector. Even our leveraged ETS from our friends over at Direction, obviously the short's down 6.5%, and your bullish, excuse me, is up 6.52%. Impressive rise, but not a ton of activity in this market, relatively low volume in these bigger ones here. It'll be interesting to see if America can come back and actually be a global producer and industry power in the 21st century. I think that there's plenty of people willing to take jobs. Of course, I think things will become more expensive because we're producing them here. But there is that security. Shipping, obviously, internationally has become quite a lag and has increased prices. Weather production in America leading to cheaper delivery is negligible or not, what we'll see. But this could be huge. This could be really big for America. We can switch back a little bit to renewable energies. Something, again, from the New York Times I was reading, Russia is really leveraging their oil production in this kind of conflict with the Ukraine. Everyone's talking about gas prices going up, heating prices going up for the Europeans. Now, while that's true, the Europeans have historically paid extraordinarily low for heating. Again, this doesn't mean that this is necessarily good, but is it the end of the world? I mean, they'll probably pay something similar to people in America now for it. Obviously, that's a big impact on the economy. But we can look at actually something that I found interesting. This is a country you don't hear a lot about in Europe. It kind of gets overlooked. But it's Portugal. Portugal is what they refer to as an energy island. They are not reliant on gas fields, oil wells, coal mines. In fact, they don't have any. Now, they're actually pretty big on hydropower and with a global drought that we've experienced. We've had wildfires all over, especially in France and in the UK. Portugal's hydropower production has been crippled. However, they, along with Spain, invested very heavily in renewable energy like wind, solar, and hydropower and have established an elaborate system, quote, an elaborate system for importing gas from North West Africa, United States, and elsewhere. For Europe to truly be able to live out their own kind of plan that they have, this has been almost a lesson of this whole show so far is that these global supply chains have in a way kind of become compromised because not everyone is on the same plan, essentially. So it's really in the best interest of the European Union who's been hit really hard since 2020 to kind of get away with this. I think they can. It looks like it says the change of circumstances here are shifting the power balances among the 27 members of the European Union, creating opportunities as well as political tension as the bloc seeks to counter Russia's energy leverage. There's also something where Russia was going to stop importing into Europe. Now, of course, that's true, but what's really going to happen is we'll enter through another avenue, such as Turkey, and the Europeans will continue to hurt more. We can look a little bit more into this as we get back and see other examples of where this works properly in places that have attempted to do it and for whatever reason have stopped.

So a few people in the den actually asked for me to kind of provide some background on my... some information on my background, trading on ideology tools and methods. So, yeah, I graduated from the University of South Florida with a bachelor's degree in finance and business administration. I was involved in one of the honor groups there. I was involved in the investments club. So I've always had a really big interest in kind of the market itself. Of course, I'm in more of a, I suppose, management position now, but that passion hasn't died. Regarding my ideology, regarding trading, I'm really big into figuring out what... well, for one, traditionally speaking, fundamentals have been everything for me. In fact, tfnn has really opened my eyes to technical trading, which we did a little bit of regarding some options courses that we had, but never, obviously, to the extent at which I'm exposed to it here. It's very cool to see these technicians that we have doing their thing. I'm really interested in seeing what the economy of the future is going to be like right now. Now, there's always naturally shifts every few decades, right, new things occur. But I see now that there's really concerted effort to really change the economic makeup of the world we live in. I mean, this is stuff with increased digitalization. This is stuff with renewable energy. And again, we're seeing massive pushes by governing bodies to get to this. So ideology-wise, I love looking for things that are like higher growth. Of course, that's cut a little bit with some more value stocks, but everything I look into is generally growth. And the fundamentals are absolutely everything for me, especially looking at what the hype is around the stock. Now, of course, that doesn't necessarily correlate with fundamentals, but a lot of times it can play into it. So that's a little bit about me. I've been working here for probably just a little bit over a year now. I've really been enjoying it. But yeah, so I hope that answered your question, everyone in the den. And if you're not in the Discord, I got to tell you, you got to get in. It's awesome. I mean, we got hundreds of people in there all day. These guys know what they're talking about. And throughout my years, I've been in other kind of trading rooms or on different forums or whatever. And nothing quite compares to this. And I get that that's a bit of a biased opinion. But you got to check it out for yourself. All right. So let's look today. Apple is releasing the, or rather has released the iPhone 14. However, apparently this is not doing too much for it right now. We are up just a little bit. But it kind of begs the question, right? Like traditionally speaking, especially when the 13 came out, you had huge increases. Now, especially with the 12, you had some big iOS changes. It drives interest. This article on investors.com is saying this is the worst reception in iPhones since the iPhone 6S. It says the market receptions of Apple's new iPhone 14 do today is already lukewarm. Wall Street seems bored of the iterative changes. Apple stock is down 6.3% in the month leading into September 7th announcements. It says investor business daily analysis of data in the global market intelligence. So, yeah, obviously Apple's been getting slammed. The S&P 500 has been getting slammed in general. Let's see where we're at. Not that big of a difference off. I mean, no, that's, no, that's, you know, so we have Apple up 1.15 and we have the SBX up 1.94. I mean, Apple dominates regarding its portion of the market itself. But again, I think it's really important to note that Apple is not going anywhere. Yes, the small changes that aren't really groundbreaking can be a little bit aggravating, but you're always going to have lull years with this kind of idea. People are still going to buy these new iPhones. Maybe disposal income isn't as high right now, but plenty of these units are being sold. And another thing that's important is you're looking at the upcoming generation, you know, Gen Z and whatever they have below them. Two thirds of them own Apple. And we see when we have Gen Z getting into that, I mean, the oldest of Gen Z are 25 now, right? They're still sticking with Apple. Their brand loyalty is immense. And you have issues with companies like Google getting these kids off of it. You know, it's just what we've known. We all had iPhones when we were younger and we don't really want to change. And, you know, iPhone's iMessaging system is actually massive. It was revolutionary when it came out. It was the first one to have read receipts. It was the first one to really alternate the colors of the text. And Google has still not, really any kind of other provider has not been able to really match that. So, yeah, I mean, things have been lagged. Everything in the market has been lagged. Obviously Apple should probably be doing maybe a bit better since they just released a new product. But, you know, I see, you know, their next release or whatever else they do, they're going to be fine. And if the market's in a better place, we'll see a bigger upswing. I mean, you look at the way that they've they've made everything a product, right? Like, even their chargers now don't come with the charger box. You have to do, it's insane. You have to spend so much money to get the iPhone, yet people are still doing it. You have these new iPods they have. It's like $200 a pop. They're insane. You buy a charger for that. These guys really have their cash flow on a positive level here. This portion of the article is looking for the iPhone's future. It says, even though a new product may be exciting to consumers and anyone part of the Apple fandom, investors have tended to turn a cold shoulder to these events. On average, across the 18 days in which a new iteration of smartphone was announced, Apple stock has only risen 22% of the time with an average decline of 0.32%. Excuse me. In fact, Apple has not reacted positively to an iPhone announcement since 2019. Yeah. Maybe so. I would argue it's not that drastic. The iPhone 13 was a really impressive release and everyone purchased one. Let's see here what we got. I think if we can jump back over to Portugal, these guys are essentially going to be the funnel for Western Europe into energy. They have a really nice strategy for getting liquefied natural gas into it. We could actually see these guys being a big middle man into Europe. And honestly, with the production of more of these batteries coming out of, in the next decade, coming out of Saudi Arabia, coming out of America, these guys could actually get themselves out of the economic situation they've been in since 2008, which is really interesting. One of the complementary sectors with lithium and batteries is going to be copper, okay? Let's take a look. We can look at southern copper here if I can pull it up. Southern copper is pretty sweet. Obviously, every material has mainly been hit. These guys have a 6% dividend, which is really solid. We see some nice volume on an update here. Obviously, we have some declining. This, again, gets hit by, when you have concepts of recession, increasing interest rates, all these kind of raw materials tend to get hit to a certain point. Let's see what else. We have CX here. Obviously, it was doing some analysis on that. It's some kind of idea. Well, we had a low volume, a higher volume reasonably for that month on the update and kind of a general decline. I do think on the long term, mine's a bunch of other things besides copper, but they do have a big portion of copper. The copper contract has stayed relatively steady right under $4. I do think if you want to get in to the kind of renewable energy section, you've got to look at these guys. I think copper is going to be huge. So we'll see what happens with that. When we come back, we can talk a little bit more about transferring energy from these kind of new plants. And just see what else. If you have any questions, please give me a call. 877-927-6648. Message me in the den, message me on YouTube, and I'll get to you. All right, we'll be right back, folks.

Let's take a look right now at one of my favorite sectors, is steel. Steel has been doing phenomenally and everyone at the office is talking about it all the time and I'm sure they're sick of it. But let's look at, it's two in particular that I love playing with. There's just Steel Dynamics and Newcore. I'm going to take a look at Newcore in a second. Steel Dynamics, this is actually founded by three executives from Newcore. Excuse me. They're based in Indiana. Let's see what we got here. One moment. So the fundamentals are really solid. For Q2 and 2022, they're up six. And really look at this in comparison to the rest of the market. We have the revenue at 6.21 billion which is up almost 40% year over year. We have net income at 1.21 billion which is 72% up over the year. And diluted earnings per share is at 6.73 which is up 94%. They're really a solid company. I mean EPS, actual, they had an estimate for Q2 of 2022 at $6.05 and it actually returns 673%. Let's see what else we can get for their fundamentals here. Anything interesting? Let's see here. Nice profit margin of 20% almost, operating margin of 26%. These guys are good. They've actually held relatively well comparatively speaking over, let's see here. We're kind of over the week. So you know, we get a few, especially regarding like, yeah, the rest of the market taking a nosedive but these guys have held at 79.64. It loves playing up to about the 85 area. It really retraces and then builds up big again. Let's see. Newcore is kind of like it's bigger. Cousin, let's see here. One moment. We have added up only a modest 6.63%. Let's get a better look here. Let's do it one year. So yeah, I like these stocks. I think long-term you're not going to lose too much of your value whatsoever in these. Of course, this is totally just my opinion on it but I love playing with these stocks. Again, I think in October of last year, Biden was doing something to renew a lot of the piping in the Great Lakes region, a lot of the infrastructure. We are due for a massive infrastructure overhaul in America. That could be part of the plan to kind of stimulate growth in the economy after it gets lulled by the interest rates increase. I could totally see that. Again, that's helped us historically in the past. So interesting to see what happens with that. Let's see what else we got here today. We can take a look at Tesla quickly. Tesla up 3.1%. Again, I think this news with... There's not a lot of good competitors, I think, in the American market for, you know, Elon Musk is a great marketer regarding all of this. I mean, it's absurd what people have seen Tesla do under his ownership. I mean, he's the one who opened it anyway. But if people follow under California, they follow behind their example. These guys are going to be here to stay. I don't think anything's cutting these guys out whatsoever. There's just nothing else that's really... We had... What is it? Oh man, Nicola, that company, that turned out to be an entire... Just kind of bust essentially, right? The guy was promising things that weren't even there. And I think the more we get lithium building in America, it'll be massive. The YouTube brought up, who was it? EKS says, regarding the lithium Piedmont in Tennessee, this may be one to investigate further. The tax legislation says minerals for batteries must be domiciled from U.S. to get those credits. Let's see right here. So, we have this here. This is from the Tennessee government website. Let's see what they have to say regarding this. This is a producer of lithium hydroxide, a critical component in the supply chain for both electric vehicle and battery storage markets. Piedmont's Tennessee lithium project will support energy security in the U.S. and the transition to a clean energy economy in North America. The new manufacturing plant will utilize more environmentally responsible and economic processing tools, excuse me, technology, supporting Piedmont's objective of becoming a large, low-cost, sustainable producer of lithium products. This could be huge for Tennessee. I mean, seriously. The idea of lithium becoming massive has been around forever. I remember when they thought that Peru was going to be the next Dubai because of their lithium production. Of course, instability kind of screwed them on that. But yeah, I mean, it seems, as I was saying before, it really seems like all governments, whether it's your state, local, or international, are going for this kind of stuff. I mean, I think it's really sweet. Tennessee's in, like, the Southern Automotive Corridor, it says. Can you just attract companies in electric vehicle industry? We believe McKinnon County, et cetera, et cetera. This would be huge for Piedmont. Let's see what else we got. Again, if you have any questions, please let me know in the den. I don't mind at all looking some stuff up for you, even if my analysis is not as experienced as Tom's. I wouldn't mind taking a look for you. Let's see here. I guess we can go back here to seeing, essentially, we'll get some good for you, too, after the break. Seeing how Europe can get out of this, I really do think while liquefied natural gas is going to be big for, you know, Western Europe coming in from Central and Portugal, I really think we need to take a major look at the future of nuclear. We have so much potential in this, from everything from thorium salts now, to being able to utilize the waste, essentially, from nuclear to create more. I think this is really big. The major issue, again, as I said, the last time it was on here is kind of the public perception of it, right? And I mean, these are valid. Yeah, Three Mile Island, you had Fukushima, all these kind of things. The apparatus, the nuclear apparatus itself has become so much more efficient. The way that we get rid of it, you take a small bit in the desert and you just dig it there. This, I think, now, of course, again, solar, wind, all these things are going to be necessary. Everything still has its impact on the environment. I'm sure we'll see in two decades all these big hit pieces on solar as well. But just like it is on nuclear now, but these are huge. This is the way that every country can be energy-independent. I think this is really massive. I think that there will be a lag in getting some of the renewable energies, such as wind and solar, in. And I think this conversation, I really want to say that you should be open at some of these stocks. Let's see here. Germany was going to open a bunch of them. They've historically had an issue with energy, right? Even in the World Wars, one of their biggest failings was that they didn't have enough energy. Their scientists in World War II were working for nuclear. It's strange to me that they closed this down. I think this is all political, but obviously there's going to be a massive necessity that I think is going to shift the public perception. When you come back, I'll look up some of the stocks that I've played with regarding nuclear. We can take a deeper look. Again, we have a little bit left. Give me a call 877-927-6648, and we'll be right back. The technology around us is changing every day. With so much happening, it can seem impossible to keep up with all the information.

Right now we're taking a look at Lightbridge Corporation, uh, per the den here. So these guys essentially have removed, this is a nuclear stock. These guys have removed some grids in the flow-restricting spacer grids, which just controls the flow of some of the water into the nuclear reactor. Apparently this allows more water to move through the core without increasing pump power and this allows it to operate at a thousand degrees cooler, which is obviously huge. And this is kind of like the point I'm getting at, right? Now, to get better technology in uranium, or really nuclear in general, it's a huge amount of upfront investment to develop some of these new things. But once it's there, I mean, it really can revolutionize. It's a little bit interesting to see this stock move. I mean, this popped up in 1219. This must have been when all those uranium stocks were pumping up. I know energy fuels popped up pretty heavily as well. And this has a lot of action here. Yeah, just about. These guys are based in Colorado. These guys are uranium as well. It's a really cool deal here. Additionally, this article says uranium industry bullish on Canada with roughly 30% of uranium total global output. So it might be interesting to see if you're interested in getting some more exposure. I mean, all of these natural materials kind of come out of, I mean, gold is huge out there, silver. A lot of your big precious metal and metal companies in general come out of Canada. They have some suggestions here for active companies in the market of base and uranium corporation. These are all on the Toronto Stock Exchange. Let's see what else. I mean, we have Kamiko, obviously. Let's see. What's Kamiko doing today? That's some nice movement today. Doing a little bit better than the market, too. Interesting. Again, with what I'm saying, getting your portfolio ready for the future, it's really thinking about the sci-fi stuff. How is it going to change in the 80s? Really pay attention to that because that's kind of what we're moving to. So folks, listen, thank you so much for joining me today. I really appreciate it. I think Tom will be back tomorrow. But thank you so much. I hope you guys have a great day and stay safe. We'll see you soon.
