The TFNN Bull Bear Training Hour. Now, Tom and Tommy O'Brien. Welcome folks, appreciate you growl and a problem with us out here. We have the Dow Industries up 36, Nasdaq up 27, S&P's up 8.5, Gold down 330, traded at $14.53 an ounce. We have Silver down 5 cents, $16.74 an ounce, Light Sweet Crew up 56 cents, $57.43 a barrel, and notes and bonds. The 10-year up one tick, $128.11, 30-year up two at $156.14. I got to remember last week folks, monster move lower in the note and bond market. It looks like they want to test those lows with bottom line. They won't have the volume. You won't have that expansion of volume because we're so big. We'll see if it comes in and rejects its lower price. King dollar, King dollar up 127 ticks, trading 98, 326. The euro is at 110. The yen is out here at 109. And the pound is at 128 to one US dollar. And, you know, St. Patrick's Day is out here, man. Green across the board? Green across the board, man. Record territory, man. I said on the update, are we going to get a 3100 print in the S&P? Are we going to get a 28,000 print in the Dow? And you got President Trump out there. He's going to be cheerleading in the capital of the markets. New York. That's the economic summit. That's right. And now, let's go over to our leprechaun. Mr. Kevin Hanks from TD Ameritrade Thinker Swim. And don't forget, folks, every trading day right here, 11 to 12 Eastern Standard Time. You want to understand the option market, the futures market, defined risk, outstanding program. If you haven't test driven yet the Thinker Swim platform, it's really easy to do. At our website at TFNN, you can see the banner. Hit the banner, bring it up. You can follow Kevin's team every trading day, trade with paper money. Kevin Hanks, what's going on? Good morning, Tom. Good morning, Tommy. You know what? This is a pretty interesting day we have going on here because even though the rest of the week has got some pretty strong economic data points that we're going to be looking at. Today's NFIB number, which if you're a data geek like I am, I kind of like this number to look at and read through. And then we got a red book number that is 5%. These are good strong numbers. I love to look at the NFIB number. I don't know about you guys, but it's just such a good look at small businesses and what's going on. So you know what? Not really surprising that the E-minis are following through. There's just not a lot in the way of this market right now. I mean, tomorrow could change with maybe a CPI number that gives a little inflation and maybe these bonds start to spike on the downside a little bit. And get yield spiking. But boy, I don't see a lot to get in the way of this market right now, guys. Yeah. And we, I mean, because we're in the market, Kevin and Tom, we speak a lot about large caps and small caps of public companies, but the reality is that small business runs the United States, right? Exactly. I mean, that's where all our neighborhoods, and that definition of small business folks can be three or four people. But think about how many plumbing places, the IAC conditions, you get 50, 60, you get manufacturing places. 50 to 100 employees, definitely. They're talking about a lot of employment. And what's really cool is that it seems that those businesses are not over their head. Because every day they go to work, I'm looking at all these trucks, Kevin, right? And I'm saying to myself, man, it's amazing how many companies are putting people to work. That's what it seems like. And some of the biggest problems that the NFIB is talking about is getting labor for these companies. Small businesses are having trouble hiring. Right. And what they talk about in their report is how all the speculation about a coming downturn and recession just absolutely did not show up. And now you're talking about, you know, employers that are trying to catch up from the last month, any hesitation in this economy, they're playing catch up on now. And the NFIB fired back on their numbers better than expected. And, you know, the comments out of their CEO and their economists were pretty powerful. Yeah. And it's going to get so intriguing, because before we know it, I mean, Thanksgiving isn't two weeks. Yeah. Right. And what happens, folks, is that, you know, and I'm sure like Kevin talks a lot about it. And we commit to the spring going into the summer. Well, let me tell you something, man, between, you know, Thanksgiving, the week after Thanksgiving to Christmas, it's pretty hard for this market to ever get slammed. I'm not saying ever, but the reality is, is that, you know, guess what? Kind of where you are at that level, you're not going to get monster movements. You know what I'm saying? Right. And here's what I think people need to look at as we're going into the Christmas holiday season. Americans have more money in their pocket via more jobs and better jobs. Americans have more money in their pocket based on lower gas prices. And all that leads to consumer spending, which we're seeing in the data. The consumer spending is the strongest part of this economy. And if you look at what's going to happen over the Christmas holidays, it's going to be interesting to watch these big four retailers and how they fire on all cylinders, especially like Target. Target has made that commitment in terms of toys and Christmas gifts to kind of try at least to own Christmas. Yes. Yeah. No, I can see that. Hey, how about, I mean, good old Amazon, holy cow. I mean, they're, you know, of course we know they buy Whole Foods, but now they're going to lock stock and viral looks like, you know, into basically brick and mortar grocery stores. Right. That's it's amazing, Tom, how everything that's happening in retail, all the brick and mortars are developing e-commerce. Right. Make no mistake, when Walmart releases earnings later in the week, the number one thing everyone's going to look at is how are their e-commerce sales growing. But then there's Amazon on the other side who's getting more into the brick and mortar side of the business. So you've got all the retail sector via e-commerce or brick and mortars merging towards each other. I know. So yeah, it's fascinating what is happening, but brick and mortar is not dead. Clearly, it's not dead. I think, you know, and I think what these firms are trying to figure out now is delivery of these goods and that last mile that they always talk about, which is the most expensive part of the delivery service. That is no doubt. And I remember, I mean, you know, Tommy, you and I, we even like two years ago, a year and a half, we almost get, you can almost feel the turn, we talked about it. Hey, man, whoever stayed alive is staying alive. Right. And now we have the other side of it because what Amazon said, I don't know if the Amazon, it was a study that they had done that in the grocery business, this status is wild, that two to one, people want to pick their groceries up at the grocery store. You know, they don't have to, they can order online, they want to pick up the grocery versus getting delivery. Yeah. Exactly. I mean, boxed up paper goods, no one cares. Right. And if you're going to buy it, any produce. Yeah. Or anything like that or any piece of meat that you're going to look at and at least make a decision on it, it's just never going to happen. I agree. And you know, in factors into my mind, I've used Uber Eats, right? Yeah. And you got, I'm a little, just not even, I want to say skeptical, right? But Uber Eats, man, there is anybody in the world that's picking up your food, they have it in their car by themselves for a period of 10 to 15 minutes. I've read some articles of things that can happen to that food and that thing. Well, it's just there, that's a process of talking about delivering all your groceries for your family. People have the same exact kind of worry and I wonder how they're going to tackle that fear. Yeah. I mean, you can't walk through a grocery store now without seeing some employee from that grocery store walking through creating, you know, a delivered part of groceries and shopping for their car. I see every grocery store I'm in. It's amazing. Definitely. Definitely. And groceries are revolving. That's for sure. Kevin, you're right here. 45 minutes from now, folks. Have a great one, Kevin. Thank you. Thanks, Kevin. Stay right there. If you're not currently using the TAS Profile Scanner when looking at setting up your trading opportunities, then your arsenal is short a mighty weapon.

Down industry is up before S&P is up 10 and a half and I know you're going to hear this a lot today folks but we got to go through Disney. We're in the market man we're not talking about just fun and games and Star Wars I mean this is quite an entry into the streaming world which is changing the way that we view content, digest content, view televisions and Disney Plus goes live this morning so they become the platform become available the scrolling dot of the internet loading we're all familiar with that type of deal but nonetheless they're looking for 90 million users in about five years they go live this morning so they got in there they're referencing in terms of one thing that I heard this morning which people will find intriguing some of their content a lot of their content actually downloadable Netflix offers some but not all for sure so that's a big deal where you can download it bring it with you you have it on the tablet again but this is where they're going to be trying to compete in different areas and what is ESPN plus is that you know I should know better myself in terms of what that exactly entails I'm not exactly sure but obviously it's a plethora of programs from ESPN the number of their games I'm not sure if that's a direct access to the ESPN itself stream that's on cable providers I'm not exactly sure but we'll all find out real soon man because I agree that and I saw an opinion article from Bloomberg this is not this is just the news article talking about it there's an opinion article out there talking about maybe we'll pull it up that bundles of the future because I believe the Disney plus is it $699 I believe it might be $699 and it's like $13 that's $1299 is the bundle with Hulu and ESPN plus exactly now there's a reticle article that you're only able to watch I believe it's one or two at the same time so if you have three TVs in your house at the same time if you bundle you can't have three ESPN plus but you can have Disney plus streaming you can have ESPN plus streaming you can have Hulu so it is where if it's one family household and maybe the kids are watching Disney but it's not meant to be right now where maybe you can share it with we could share a service maybe and you're streaming one I'm streaming the other we're both streaming the same thing look at this thing so if you're a Disney fan club member you know avenues and then it's already some 19 million Verizon communication customers will be able to get the service for free for the first year and I think that has to do with an upgraded data service if you have you know you're paying for internet for an elevated data service you're going to be able to get a year of that immediately and then just like you said they got the the bundle which is just an amazing bundle in terms of price there were probably all six, seven dollars by themselves but you package them together you get them for 13 pretty inexpensive and when you got the likes of Star Wars Avengers they just bought the whole Fox franchise that comes with the Simpsons the likes of that let alone Mickey Mouse Donald Duck Kevin Hicks talking about the Jungle Book and they you know another one of the headlines they're betting big on nostalgia you just got so many different content titles from the likes of the years past in the app to work as soon as they tried to log on early hours so they're having a few hiccups they certainly are those are going to be highlighted across the internet on day one but you know when they talk about 90 million users that's five years okay so I would not get too panicked on the first few hours of that launch I plan on signing up myself probably for the bundle I just cut the cord and one of the things I was you know it's amusing that even my friends and I in our group chat this morning we talked about Netflix versus right I have some friends huge Netflix we call them fanboys huge and the the debate is you know I can see myself cancelling Netflix occasionally yeah binging when I want to right coming back when I want to and I enjoy some of their programs man you know whether it's Ozarks whether there's there's a bunch of names out there but if you sign up for ESPN plus that's something you might not cancel right sports go on all year long Disney plus for your kids kids aren't into binging and then not watching right they're going to be watching 12 months a year so the the grab on the you know the stickiness they would call it right of not cancelling I give a leg up to Disney and let's just see how they're trading right now because I think they got another pop up today yeah they should did so up $2.13 now they made it as high in their earnings last week overnight as I believe like 141 32 and change right so the market really like in the deals that they made with Verizon because it's all going to be about trying to catch up with Verizon excuse me with Netflix CMCSK I got to see with calm CSA just the last one day because this is like you know you're at $45 I mean they've had plenty of time to change their MO and looks like chart wise they're making a lot more money doing different things because this is a high look at this you know so that's intriguing right yeah look at that not bad that's pretty intense that looking at Comcast folks that you're at all-time highs too just you're right next to them definitely you know so bottom line there is that evidently either more customers more everything yeah like we hey how are you going to stream that Disney plus we're going to need internet you're going to buy some s&p's oh no I'm waiting for we got a 50 we need 50 cents more man I'm waiting for the 3100 print party who's going to get the print we'll get the candles let's get on then Mr. Basil Chapman I think I think Basil deserves to get the print he loves these even numbers even numbers 3100 coming out maybe we'll get 28,000 in the Dow too man Boeing yesterday right quite a pop I mean we're going to have you're going to you're going to have the biggest cheerleader of all in terms of market prices the president out there at noon talking about and this is where I heard a great analyst you got to keep in mind he's tweeting out there the economy's so great market at all time highs and then the next day the economy's in so much trouble the the Fed needs to cut so I imagine I'd love to hear how somebody who believes both of those pairs those conversations it's going to be great it's going to be a something that came on Bloomberg said the same thing it's going to definitely be a binary event the moment of silence we're 50 cents away let's say there we go we got it there we got perfect there it is time the moment of silence well hit it hit it right in a button now the real question is going to be can it get over it okay down we go 3000 by the end of the day no joke 3100 means anything no no it means actually means nothing right but sometimes those round numbers as well here in a motion to play a part in things. So, you know, big time, big time. Yeah, let's go take a look at some of the higher volume equities out here and we'll see it's a little bit too early to find out we're going to have any volume in this market. You get Chesapeake. That's on those way out of business. Yes. It's done another seven cents. That's at 72 cents. You got Roku's up five and a half dollars. You got Bank of America up five cents. Walt Disney's a big one. That's up two bucks. Dean Foods, man. This is intense. So look at this, folks. DK, this has been going down for quite some time. But man, I remember when this company was a powerhouse and evidently, they just expanded, expanded and they are not trading. They're halted. Yeah, that's that's what happens when you're not your going bankrupt. I guess they filed and man, oh man, just even since September. Look at that. Yeah. You know, one way trip, 35 bucks down to zero. Man, look at that. Stay right there, folks. Tommy and I come right back. Hi, folks. Tom O'Brien here.

I doubt I was up 64 and as it's up 37 and as it's up 12 and we did get over that 3000 too. Yeah, 3000.75. I think that's five. Yeah. And let me see if I can pull up some of these images. I think they're going to load up. Let's see if they're going to pull up. No, they're causing me some problems. So we'll go back in. Bottom line. They get a lot of stuff. Yeah, you know, we're looking again just Disney Plus in terms of they got Pixar. They got Marvel. They got Fox. They have the Darth Vader on the front page. You want to watch Star Wars? So pretty cool, man. We'll see how. Let's go take a look at DHI. So your DH heart and come out with numbers. Excuse me. Numbers were better than expected. Stark is a little vaulted out here this morning. Yeah. So you're up a buck right now. You're 53.65. Two bucks off the high though, right? Man, oh man. So yeah, look at that. Okay, so let's see what we have here. You're going to take out 54 3.8 million. Let's be interesting to see how this plays out because this could be an ABC structure up. Let's see what they have to say. Okay, so you got three months through September purchase contract jumped 14% from last year to 13,130. Not a bad number for 90 days, 13,000 orders for houses. Seriously, right? And this is a smart one right here. Look at this. So DHO it was one of the first builds to focus on lower cost homes for Millennium's that's paying off. Yep. You get the drop in mortgage rates, which is helping anyone in the mortgage business. Definitely. And they're just saying that tough year over year comps from how things were rocking, I guess a year ago with where rates were. Yeah. Lower lumber cost is helping them. Can I see what this chart is? What is that on home orders? Okay, look at that home orders number, man. Wow. That is quite a number. And you know, I wonder what kind of houses they were producing back here, though, into with a more expensive, that's probably they're saying they've shifted to a more affordable house, pushing out more of them. But my goodness, you're talking about almost a three fold increase from 20,000 on an annual basis, just over that in 2012, to now more than 55,000 for this year. Let's see if it's helping the rest of the sector. Take a look at LaNar. Not really. Now, would LaNar be more expensive homes? I get. Yeah. Okay. It is. They were LaNar was higher though, they were up to 60 or nine. So they're pairing that as well. Yeah. And then let's look at this. Average 410. So they delivered look at this company to 45,000 homes in 2018 average price 410,000. Yeah. I mean, just to put it, I mean, that on I forget with the 20, but DHI 55,000 plus, but they're brought a much smaller number. But I wonder what's the margins to right? That's a big number in terms of what's the margin margins probably higher on a more expensive house. Yeah, that'd be cool to look at because they run about 17%. So it's, I imagine it's going to differ though, if you're selling $210,000 house or $410,000 house. Because if they were all the same, you can sell more $210,000 houses. Yeah. So I imagine the margins go up, but you're going to find less buyers on that elevated level. Yeah, the land cost is the thing that they get the land as would take too long. Yeah. You know, so those interest rates and it will see folks, I'll bring up the bond right now. The I don't believe we've got down to the bottom of that 10 year yet. What? This is a big area. There's no doubt about it, man. We're not there yet. So your the low of last week was 12731. Okay, but guess what? At noon time, we might be there. And where are you talking? You're talking about the this area over here? When you say down there? I know I was just talking about the low. Oh, okay. Four days ago that we haven't today. So we're talking first off, we're talking about the low of the downdraft 12731. Now the the breakout area is still much lower than that 12721. That's when we broke topside on August 1st. Only 10 ticks to say much lower. It's pretty close. Pretty close. Oh, yeah. Listen, that's within 10 ticks. That gets you that gets you to 2% for the yield. Yeah. And what are we? What are we sitting at right now? Because we're pretty close. One point in the news was 1.9 something. Yeah, 1.93. As I said, 1.93, 1.94. And man, oh, man, it's pretty intriguing. Three month difference. That moved, man. And that some is half a percent. Yeah, exactly. It's what tends to be exact, right? It's just just under a half percent. Yeah, to really be, you know, I mean, 1.957. Oh, yeah, right? Yeah, we're right there. That's crazy. Yeah. I mean, we just moved last week, point one five. Yeah. So this is a three month. And then you look at things. I mean, look at the spread. We had a full percent spread in six months. You went from 2.4 down to 1.4. And now we're back at just call it two for simple math, right? I mean, just mammoth moves. Now put that on a year just for a second. We're ready for these moves now. I see. So you're still the lower end for the year. Yeah, I mean, it was such it was such it was such a big move down. You know, it really was on the yield. I mean, it's tough to remember that we're sitting at 3.1 10 year, right? Within the last 12 months. Yeah, look at that, right? Let's back it up even more. Where are we put it on a year? Look at that, right? And then let's back it up to two years. We get a little bit more volatility. So there you go. We're right where we were man. November 13 3.25 3.25. And then you trade down to that low. September 4. So within two months, you know, it's not even a one way move, which is remarkable, we go from 1.4 for up to a high of 1.9 back down to 1.5. And now we're back above 1.9. Yeah. So much for lack of volatility in safety and bonds. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And that's when that would not you're not even talking bond funds, folks, okay, just bonds. Yeah, that's the 10 year US. Yeah. Treasury. I mean, exactly. So let's go over, you know, we're gonna, there's going to be action in Europe. That's the bottom line. But these, you know, the euro is just hanging here. The pound is just kind of hanging here yours down slightly were 1.107 pound. Yeah, sideways market. Yeah, you know, because so December is going to be here before we know it. It's going to get intriguing to see how this baby shakes out. We go over to the gold market, they smoked gold last week, came back, smoked it yesterday, came back. So 1448 90. Oh, look at this. So it already tested the smaller we already hit 14. Oh, no, we didn't hit it. We had 1449 50. Yeah, I'd like to see it hit it today. You know, yeah, get it out of the way. The breakout area is 1448 80. Was that wild? And we hit 1448 90 yesterday. Like, okay, yeah, yeah, once I come down there and smack that baby. And, you know, we'll see where that shakes out the dollar certainly, you know, is not getting a big bid. I mean, it's up 191 is at 98. Yeah. 392 is trying to make it over the highs of last week. That's what it was doing this morning anyway. Yes, right at them. Speaking of another little bit of volatility going on. And yeah, we'll take a look if we can jump to Tyson foods after the break. They got their earnings as well. They look to be bleak. But man, oh man, a rebound trading higher after the open. Say right there, folks, tell me that coming right back now. Now 16 as a 42 S&Ps up 12 and a half coming back. If you're in the CD market and looking for a secure investment, the Tiger first mortgage program may work for you. The security for these first mortgages are building lots in the tax opportunity zone in St. Petersburg, Florida. The tax act of 2018 set up tax free zones across the country where you can build and hold for 10 years and pay no tax on the profits, which makes these lots valuable. The investment is anywhere from 30,000 to 75,000. The interest paid is 7% yearly paid on a monthly basis. According to bankrate.com, the best rate for a four year CD in the country as of February 20th is 3.1%.

That was up 70 Nasdaq's up 44 S&Ps up 13 and they just hit gold again. Down 1030 trading 144680. That was quick. So as they as they push the market one way they push gold the other way. Yeah. Tyson. So let's go take a look at Tyson. This is pretty intriguing. So we'll pull up the chart first. All right. So there's Tyson's action this morning, man. Talk about a reversal of fortunes. They come out with the earnings a little bit of a miss, but the market kind of feeds into feed. No pun intended feeds into what they're really saying. You get the conference call that begins at 9 a.m. That really put some fire underneath it. You now got Tyson up almost 5% and you made it almost 10 full dollars from that low that we made just after 7 a.m. this morning and to get into what they're saying that's driving that pretty interesting here in terms of they're in the commodity business in terms of food. Oh, yeah. You have a swine swine fever going on in Asia and they're being able to charge higher prices for their products and that's going to persist and that's going to help the margins and that's going to help their growth into next year. That's what the CEO is saying. So looking to put the challenges the last few months in the rear view, Tyson Foods painted an optimistic picture for the fiscal year ahead as the spread of the African swine fever in Asia pushes up global protein demand and prices. So top U.S. meat processors, excuse me, missed earnings estimates. That's the reason for the flush down in the beginning in this quarter but expects at least high single digit growth in the fiscal year as quote, we're well positioned to take advantage of opportunities in the global marketplace. So there's uncertainty in beef chicken and pork markets due to wild cards like African swine fever, which is wiping out hog herds in China, the biggest consumer and producer. Many expect the disease to provide upside for the U.S. meat processors in the first half of 2020 and the CEO saying we're very encouraged but we don't want to put forth a number that could be low while he put forth enough to give that stock quite a pop. Anytime the world loses that amount of protein supply and demand is growing prices are impacted. So this is a pretty cool chart here that looks through their margins. Okay, so their margins are getting a little bit crimped but this year. On the chicken. Yes, especially. So you're looking at whether it's quarter by quarter, right? 2017, 2018, 2019. The bar on the farthest left is the chicken margin. You see they were pulling in 10 plus percent on margins in the late 2017 still relatively high staying up there in March of 2018. Then you really start to see a slump when you look at that left of the four bars for margins. That's the chicken. There's your chicken margin and man just down to 2% now. But really what's interesting, right? The one that's kind of we'll call it a blue. We'll call it an aqua. Look at that spike there. 10 plus percent on the pork as you have the swine fever wiping out herds. They're able to charge more. And yeah, and then you got beef and prepared foods as well in there. No, excuse me. Which one is this? Yeah, that's going to be beef. That's beef. Yeah, so beef is the big one. That's beef is the big one, correct. That really has spiked higher as those hogs are getting wiped out and cattle, I'm sure. Because the pork is the green. Okay. Yeah. And then, oh, they don't even happen. Oh, they have the blue as the chicken. Oh, that's weird. Yeah, they're kind of all over the place. They should have put these in correlating order from where they put them on the graph. Right. And I don't think they did. No, they didn't. That's a lesson in chart structuring. Yes. So here's the Springfield, Arkansas based company expects export markets to absorb increased U.S. protein production of as much as 3%. That's a big number, man, when you talk about, you know, producing meat, not accounting for impacts from the African swine fever, beef operating margins are forecast at six to six and a half to seven and a half. Well, both chicken and pork will be six to eight and prepared foods 10 to 12. Yeah. Pretty wild, man. It is. And then, you know, I guess maybe in the call he had something about their, you know, fake meat, but they may have that's probably not factoring in for the next year, but it is interesting when we've done the comparisons before, right? You pull up a company like Tyson, $31.5 billion market cap right now, and let's see how Beyond is doing. Beyond meat, if you're in the market, you're comparable $4.6 billion company. And to put it in context, well, they're taking in 100 million, 200 million somewhere in that degree in their revenue. Yeah, this fiscal year, $277 million, valued at $4.6 billion. Well, guess what? Tyson, again, we've said before, if you weren't watching the program before, I mean, we were talking about it back here, man, just crazy valuations when they were up to 10, 12, 13, 14 billion. And Tyson was an investor in Beyond. They know what they do. They were purposefully an investor to be aware of the technology, to be aware of what they're doing so that when they come to market with a similar product, they have that intellectual capital, all that. That the CEO isn't selling, but guess what? Everybody else. Everyone, the other management team, the management team is. So what this is about is that the lockup is on, I mean, they can sell if they'd like right now. Yeah, it's off, actually. Yeah, it's off, all right. So the CEO, Ethan Brown, may not be selling, but guess what? Other executives, you got CFO Mark Nelson. He moved 70,000 shares at 5.7 million. Chief people officer sold 10,000 shares at age 24. You get a lot of chiefs. They call them the C-sweets, right? You don't want the C-sweets dumping all their shares. Right. Chief growth officer sold 50,000. Now the board member shared 133,000. I mean, 50,000, that's four million bucks, man. Oh, yeah, yeah. Growth officer taking four million bucks out of a company. Yeah. Big numbers, man. It's huge numbers when you think, so what do we just say? This is staggering when you put it in. Now normally, we're just used to such big numbers, right? It's like, ah, they took off four million. The company is only valued at 4.6 billion. You got executives. You just add up all these. Well, there's five million. This guy took off 50,000 shares. That's four million. I mean, that's 10, 15 million dollars. I'm not the guy with 133,000. Yeah, exactly. He's the board member. It's big money. It's big, big shares to dump in a company that's only four billion dollars, you know? Right. And well, there you go. That explains it, right? Shares outstanding. This is not a lot. All right. 5.7 million shares outstanding. And we just talked about millions, you know, almost hundreds of thousands approaching a million shares being sold easily. Yeah. Okay, we got to get over to gold. They're banging on gold here. Let's see what we got. So, you got... Oh, it's not bad. Nine bucks. I thought the way they told it. The talking was down a lot further than that. Okay. So, 14, 40, 80, 80. That's the number you want to keep an eye on out here, folks. You hit 14, 46, 20. You know, your breakout areas did note that the 5th of August. And we'll see how this shakes out. Smack it again. Yeah. And S-I-Z. Let's see what Silver's doing out here. So, we got the 16, 66. 16, 58 is the number there. That's the same day. Say 16, 58. Yeah, that's the beginning of the strength on the 7th of August. Okay. And what's intriguing is I think the gold day lines up to August 1st. Yeah. Just so to keep things in context. Yeah. Silver a little bit different, but I believe gold lined up which would be 16, 06. Yeah. Just if people are out there. Oh, yeah. It's August 1st. And that was the big day in bonds when they had a huge day lock going on. Yeah. Oh, that's the breakout in bonds, for sure. 877-927-6648 Dow. Dow is up 65. Nasdaq's up 46. S&P's up 13 and a half. You get Trump speaking in an hour and 10 minutes. Where is it going to go, baby?
