1
00:00:01.600 --> 00:00:06.240
Good morning, Tucson, and Happy Thanksgiving. Hopefully everyone's having a

2
00:00:06.280 --> 00:00:09.240
great Thanksgiving. We have a lot to be thankful for,

3
00:00:10.800 --> 00:00:14.279
a lot to look forward to in the future, and

4
00:00:14.320 --> 00:00:16.679
I hope you guys are enjoying it. I mean, you

5
00:00:16.719 --> 00:00:20.280
know that the intensity, the intensity of the election is

6
00:00:20.839 --> 00:00:23.719
over right now. So you know, it's like you can

7
00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:27.359
go to Thanksgiving and sit there and just smile to

8
00:00:27.399 --> 00:00:31.960
those that are scared and just if they have questions,

9
00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:34.000
you answer them. If they don't, then let them be.

10
00:00:34.640 --> 00:00:36.200
But at the end of the day, we're seeing the

11
00:00:36.240 --> 00:00:37.799
movements going in the right direction.

12
00:00:38.320 --> 00:00:38.560
You know.

13
00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:41.399
The markets like it, and that's what we're interested in

14
00:00:41.439 --> 00:00:44.119
the most right now. The war right across the board.

15
00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:47.119
I've never seen this before. Everything the Dow, S and P,

16
00:00:47.320 --> 00:00:51.799
na's Dak Russell and the equal weighted SMP, they're all

17
00:00:51.880 --> 00:00:54.479
up one point one percent for the week, maybe one

18
00:00:54.520 --> 00:00:57.520
point two percent, which gives them a great month. The

19
00:00:57.600 --> 00:01:00.719
S and P was up almost was up five point seven,

20
00:01:00.759 --> 00:01:03.280
that DO was up seven and a half, the NAVZAC

21
00:01:03.399 --> 00:01:05.879
was up six point two, the wrestle was up eleven,

22
00:01:06.519 --> 00:01:09.359
and the equal weighted S and P five hundred is

23
00:01:09.400 --> 00:01:12.400
up six and a half percent. That's very very good,

24
00:01:13.680 --> 00:01:16.120
good returns for the year. If that's all your If

25
00:01:16.159 --> 00:01:19.200
you have your money that's invested like the indexages, that's

26
00:01:19.239 --> 00:01:21.719
what you made. It's how much you have, probably your

27
00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:26.079
whole portfolio. It's not just an invested in it. So

28
00:01:26.280 --> 00:01:29.000
you know if you have bonds and stuff, remember it's

29
00:01:29.000 --> 00:01:32.000
a total return and your bonds are probably going to

30
00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:35.599
give you four or five percent, if the if the

31
00:01:35.719 --> 00:01:38.439
S and P gives you twenty percent, depending what your

32
00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:40.319
your your share is, that's where you're going to be.

33
00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:44.640
So understand that as you look at your overall portfolio.

34
00:01:46.239 --> 00:01:50.480
I'm going to talk about where we stand as money managers,

35
00:01:50.840 --> 00:01:52.760
what we're doing, and what we're thinking, and why we're

36
00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:58.159
thinking it, and uh, we're cautious, there's no doubt. But

37
00:01:58.239 --> 00:02:01.439
before that you have to make the disclaimer. Greenberg Financial

38
00:02:01.439 --> 00:02:04.200
Group is both a registered investment advisory and a broken

39
00:02:04.239 --> 00:02:08.199
dealer registered with the SEC, members of FINRA and members

40
00:02:08.280 --> 00:02:11.439
of SIPIK. On this show, we talk about different products

41
00:02:11.439 --> 00:02:15.039
and different strategies. Everything has everyone has their own opinion.

42
00:02:16.159 --> 00:02:19.280
Just understand everything has risk. Everything has risk. Everything we

43
00:02:19.360 --> 00:02:22.599
talk about has risk. Somehows less risks than others, Some

44
00:02:22.639 --> 00:02:25.360
have more risk than others. But understand risk and your

45
00:02:25.400 --> 00:02:29.879
portfolio and your risk tolerance prior to investing. I can't

46
00:02:29.879 --> 00:02:35.719
tell you any clearer. Everything has risk, and the markets

47
00:02:35.719 --> 00:02:38.680
have risk. Right now. I mean we're making new highs, guys,

48
00:02:38.719 --> 00:02:42.639
We're making new highs across the board. Okay, think about that.

49
00:02:43.319 --> 00:02:47.319
The S and P made a new high, the Dow

50
00:02:47.919 --> 00:02:54.560
makes a new high. Everything's making a new high. Why

51
00:02:54.680 --> 00:02:58.240
Because people are afraid to miss out. They keep investing

52
00:02:58.240 --> 00:03:01.879
the money. But I see rotation going on. The money's

53
00:03:01.919 --> 00:03:05.120
moved pretty much from those high tech AI type stocks

54
00:03:05.159 --> 00:03:08.240
because they've kind of been going back and forth in

55
00:03:08.280 --> 00:03:12.439
the same trading range and moving more into the industrials,

56
00:03:12.520 --> 00:03:15.759
more into the Dow Joe's Timestot Dow Jones type stocks,

57
00:03:16.280 --> 00:03:19.439
financials and stuff, which is great for building a base.

58
00:03:20.520 --> 00:03:23.000
But the diversion is starting to bother me. Money's coming

59
00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:24.280
out of one and going to the other. I don't

60
00:03:24.319 --> 00:03:26.919
see money coming in. New money needs to come in

61
00:03:27.439 --> 00:03:32.080
to make the markets rally even more. New money needs

62
00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:35.280
to come in to let the markets rally more. So

63
00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:38.159
with that, when do we get new money. Well after

64
00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:40.240
the first of the years, when we usually get new money,

65
00:03:40.280 --> 00:03:43.360
people then start putting money back into the foreign case.

66
00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:45.599
People that have already maxed them out. We'll start all

67
00:03:45.599 --> 00:03:48.840
over again. New money, bonuses, you name it, all come

68
00:03:48.879 --> 00:03:51.000
in after the first of the year, so January, February,

69
00:03:51.000 --> 00:03:54.280
March usually you see new money coming in. New money

70
00:03:54.280 --> 00:03:58.520
comes into set plans, new money comes into therefore not

71
00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:01.680
on their foreign case. But I raise raw thigh raise.

72
00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:06.120
It's new money that comes in which can propel the

73
00:04:06.240 --> 00:04:08.159
markets higher in the first part of the year. And

74
00:04:08.199 --> 00:04:10.879
you know, seasonally, that's what it is. So what happens

75
00:04:10.879 --> 00:04:14.439
between now and then. If I had a guess, most

76
00:04:14.439 --> 00:04:17.199
people are cautious right now, and there's a good reason.

77
00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:22.360
Evaluations aren't great. Markets are funneled into a few stocks.

78
00:04:22.399 --> 00:04:24.360
Now it's starting to broaden out a little bit. You

79
00:04:24.439 --> 00:04:28.720
got retail season season, and then you got obviously, you

80
00:04:28.759 --> 00:04:32.399
know Trump talking about tariffs raising prices. If that happens,

81
00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:36.000
nobody really knows. So as the talk gets heated closer

82
00:04:36.040 --> 00:04:38.800
to January, I think you can come in next week

83
00:04:38.839 --> 00:04:40.600
and see, you know, a little bit of a selloff.

84
00:04:41.319 --> 00:04:43.639
I'm not looking for a crash right now. I'm looking

85
00:04:43.680 --> 00:04:47.839
for maybe a three, five, maximum seven or ten percent pullback.

86
00:04:48.319 --> 00:04:49.959
I don't even think it gets seven to ten. I

87
00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:53.360
think it's a three to five, maybe seven percent pullback.

88
00:04:53.399 --> 00:04:55.600
So what's five percent to three that that's three hundred

89
00:04:55.720 --> 00:04:58.600
S and P points brings you down to fifty seven hundred.

90
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:01.439
If it does go down a ten percent, that brings

91
00:05:01.439 --> 00:05:03.360
you down to fifty four hundred on the S and

92
00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:07.000
P five hundred. I do believe that any pullback will

93
00:05:07.040 --> 00:05:08.959
be bought going into the end of the year, and

94
00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:12.319
if not, the end of the year, beginning January through April,

95
00:05:12.360 --> 00:05:14.839
you'll see that it all bounce back. So if you

96
00:05:14.920 --> 00:05:18.439
see the opportunity here and you're underinvested, which a lot

97
00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:21.000
of us are because I've been cautious taking money off

98
00:05:21.000 --> 00:05:23.920
the table and sitting getting my money market funds, which

99
00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:25.560
you are paying I don't know, close to four and

100
00:05:25.560 --> 00:05:29.879
a half five percent, and happy with it. Okay, happy

101
00:05:29.920 --> 00:05:34.839
with it. I just waiting to see for an opportunity. Patients. Patients,

102
00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:38.879
Patience is the virtue of the game, because if you

103
00:05:38.920 --> 00:05:42.319
don't have patience and you force trades or you force investing,

104
00:05:42.839 --> 00:05:44.720
and you don't have that length of time that you

105
00:05:44.759 --> 00:05:46.800
had when you're in your twenties and thirties, because usually

106
00:05:46.839 --> 00:05:49.279
you have your money when you're in your fifties sixty seventies,

107
00:05:50.079 --> 00:05:53.000
you get scared when it turns the other way. So

108
00:05:53.199 --> 00:05:57.439
understanding mitigating risk. We have mitigated risk obviously, that's like insurance,

109
00:05:57.480 --> 00:05:59.920
and we want to lose on that. And we are

110
00:06:00.199 --> 00:06:02.720
losing on a mitigating risk right now because the markets

111
00:06:02.759 --> 00:06:05.639
are going higher. But the things that we stayed invested

112
00:06:05.680 --> 00:06:07.800
in that didn't have to sell and take tax and

113
00:06:07.839 --> 00:06:11.399
pay taxes are going higher or maintaining where they were.

114
00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:16.079
Very important. Understand mitigating risk just takes down your risk

115
00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:19.920
of your portfolio, allows the others to still make money.

116
00:06:19.959 --> 00:06:23.600
And you can make money by mitigating risk. But mitigating

117
00:06:23.720 --> 00:06:26.560
risk will or set losses if it goes down, and

118
00:06:26.600 --> 00:06:28.759
give you more cash if it goes down in order

119
00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:32.560
to go ahead and reinvest at a lower price. That

120
00:06:32.680 --> 00:06:42.519
mentality is what makes managing money effectively successful. Understanding markets

121
00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:45.000
go up and down, Understanding how to invest when the

122
00:06:45.000 --> 00:06:47.800
markets go up and down, how to mitigate risk, how

123
00:06:47.839 --> 00:06:50.240
to take money off the table, how to reduce your

124
00:06:50.279 --> 00:06:53.319
positions that are the most risky, ist how to do

125
00:06:53.360 --> 00:06:59.399
this within a best tax practice situation. So many people

126
00:06:59.560 --> 00:07:02.120
don't know what to do. They have these highly appreciated

127
00:07:02.199 --> 00:07:04.800
stocks that have made them two to three five hundred

128
00:07:04.839 --> 00:07:07.120
thousand million dollars and they just hold on to it,

129
00:07:07.480 --> 00:07:10.680
which is great, except if one day that stock gets hurt.

130
00:07:11.000 --> 00:07:13.040
We've all seen it, We've all been there. Okay, I

131
00:07:13.079 --> 00:07:15.439
won't talk about ed Ron, I won't talk about you know,

132
00:07:15.720 --> 00:07:18.120
uh those type stacks. But let's talk about Bear Stearns.

133
00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:22.079
Let's talk about Merrill Lynch, Let's talk about Bank America,

134
00:07:22.160 --> 00:07:25.720
all those stocks that were great stocks, paying dividends, Lehman Brothers.

135
00:07:26.199 --> 00:07:27.680
You know, you had never thought they would be out

136
00:07:27.680 --> 00:07:30.519
of business, and boom puff they got the one out

137
00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:30.920
of business.

138
00:07:31.000 --> 00:07:31.920
So be careful.

139
00:07:31.959 --> 00:07:37.000
It's allocations is what keeps you in the game. Allocations

140
00:07:37.160 --> 00:07:39.240
obviously how much you want to have an individual stock

141
00:07:39.360 --> 00:07:42.800
versus how much you want in ETFs ets or less

142
00:07:42.879 --> 00:07:45.279
risky than that individual stocks. Yes, you can make more

143
00:07:45.319 --> 00:07:47.680
on an individual stock if you catch it right, but

144
00:07:47.800 --> 00:07:49.759
you will lose more on an individual stock. And an

145
00:07:49.839 --> 00:07:52.079
individual stock can actually go down while the S and

146
00:07:52.120 --> 00:07:55.399
P while the index is going higher. So be careful

147
00:07:55.600 --> 00:08:00.360
on how you do it. So when when you look

148
00:08:00.399 --> 00:08:02.720
at this, why could the markets go down? Well, I'll

149
00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:05.319
tell you right, now it's because everyone knows markets go

150
00:08:05.399 --> 00:08:07.480
up and down. It the buying stops. And when there's

151
00:08:07.519 --> 00:08:10.120
no money flowing into mutual funds to buy, and you

152
00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:12.560
get some sell orders, people taking money off the table,

153
00:08:13.439 --> 00:08:15.720
then it goes down. Where would that happen. Probably won't

154
00:08:15.720 --> 00:08:18.800
happen in taxable accounts, but I can see it happening

155
00:08:19.519 --> 00:08:24.399
in the retirement accounts, the tax deferred accounts. I can

156
00:08:24.439 --> 00:08:26.560
see people taking some money off the table. To be

157
00:08:27.160 --> 00:08:30.399
careful about what's going on, because it's the prudent thing

158
00:08:30.439 --> 00:08:33.000
to do. It's hard to do because if you sell

159
00:08:33.039 --> 00:08:35.919
it and it goes higher, everyone's scratching their head, going, oh,

160
00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:37.440
what am I gonna do? What am I gonna do?

161
00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:38.240
Well?

162
00:08:39.080 --> 00:08:43.519
I do believe we're in a scenario that they're always surprises,

163
00:08:44.440 --> 00:08:47.600
and when the markets are this high, have moved up

164
00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:53.320
this fast, and you get a surprise, the downside comes quick.

165
00:08:54.399 --> 00:08:56.440
Hey let's someone up six thousand. We were down to

166
00:08:56.480 --> 00:09:01.600
fifty seven hundred pretty quickly. Understand that can happen very quickly.

167
00:09:02.080 --> 00:09:03.840
So the best way to do it is when the

168
00:09:03.879 --> 00:09:07.240
markets are higher, take a little off the table. If

169
00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:09.360
you got six hundred chairs, take off one hundred to

170
00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:14.200
two hundred chairs if you're if you're too much invested.

171
00:09:14.879 --> 00:09:16.919
You know, you were sixty percent, you're like being sixty

172
00:09:16.919 --> 00:09:20.000
percent inequities, and now it's up to sixty five seventy.

173
00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:23.279
Pull it back to sixty or even fifty five or fifty.

174
00:09:24.320 --> 00:09:26.759
Be a little bit more cautious. When we're at the

175
00:09:26.840 --> 00:09:29.480
levels that we're at, figure out a way to do it.

176
00:09:29.519 --> 00:09:31.799
If you have highly appreciated stock, you don't want to

177
00:09:31.799 --> 00:09:36.240
come out, there's ways to protect that stock without having

178
00:09:36.279 --> 00:09:38.639
to sell it. And that's the use of selling a

179
00:09:38.679 --> 00:09:41.720
call and buying a put and protecting it or just

180
00:09:41.799 --> 00:09:43.919
buying the put so you know, if it goes down,

181
00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:46.600
you're gonna do it. You're gonna buy insurance on that stock.

182
00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:49.919
That's as simple as I can make it. We do

183
00:09:49.960 --> 00:09:53.039
that for many people that are in that position. You know,

184
00:09:53.080 --> 00:09:54.559
they come to us and they got a quarter a million,

185
00:09:54.600 --> 00:09:57.559
three hundred thousand dollars in realize gains. They don't want

186
00:09:57.600 --> 00:09:59.799
to take that. So what we do is we p

187
00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:02.960
tech that stock and and and then we can sell

188
00:10:03.000 --> 00:10:05.639
it off. If it's still going higher and the options

189
00:10:05.639 --> 00:10:08.600
are losing us money, then great. That's how we'll sell

190
00:10:08.639 --> 00:10:10.879
off some of the stock, then into the losses and

191
00:10:10.919 --> 00:10:13.799
match them up. There's ways to do things. If you've

192
00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:16.519
been around this business long enough than we are. Remember

193
00:10:16.559 --> 00:10:20.960
what we do here is not just do financial planning, okay,

194
00:10:21.360 --> 00:10:24.159
which we do a fantastic job. Almost everybody wants to

195
00:10:24.159 --> 00:10:26.840
get that that financial plan that we give to them,

196
00:10:27.279 --> 00:10:29.000
and we don't charge them for doing it because it's

197
00:10:29.080 --> 00:10:31.879
very important to us as advisors to know the whole picture.

198
00:10:32.399 --> 00:10:33.960
How can we help you if we don't know the

199
00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:37.720
whole picture? You know, if you come to us and say, oh,

200
00:10:37.840 --> 00:10:40.840
I've got chess pain, Okay, we think we you know

201
00:10:40.919 --> 00:10:42.399
as a doctor, but you've got to go in and

202
00:10:42.440 --> 00:10:45.039
find out. But that chess pain could be coming from

203
00:10:45.399 --> 00:10:47.799
your your your hit, That chess pain could be coming

204
00:10:47.799 --> 00:10:50.480
from someplace else. What other things do you have going on?

205
00:10:50.960 --> 00:10:53.840
You have to find the whole picture because things are interconnected.

206
00:10:54.200 --> 00:10:57.360
It's no different when someone comes to us. We just

207
00:10:57.440 --> 00:11:00.559
don't manage the money. That's the that's the cherry on

208
00:11:00.600 --> 00:11:03.480
top of the whip cream at the end. It's the

209
00:11:03.559 --> 00:11:05.919
bottom line is that we're able to go ahead and

210
00:11:06.000 --> 00:11:08.200
know your whole picture so we know how to manage

211
00:11:08.200 --> 00:11:11.279
the money. How if you want to be aggressive, you're

212
00:11:11.279 --> 00:11:13.519
better not being using that money to be able to

213
00:11:13.559 --> 00:11:16.159
live on if you want to be aggressive. But if

214
00:11:16.200 --> 00:11:18.840
you already have enough income coming to you and doing

215
00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:20.639
the things you need, and you want to be aggressive,

216
00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:22.799
then we figure out how you want to be aggressive,

217
00:11:22.799 --> 00:11:24.720
what kind of quality do you want, how much risk

218
00:11:24.720 --> 00:11:26.559
do you want to take, and then we do it

219
00:11:26.600 --> 00:11:28.320
that way. But you know, you have to plan for

220
00:11:28.360 --> 00:11:31.799
social security, you have to plan for medicare, you have

221
00:11:31.879 --> 00:11:34.320
to plan for all these things, all right, and then

222
00:11:34.320 --> 00:11:35.919
you've got to plan for everything else that you're going

223
00:11:36.000 --> 00:11:38.679
to do in your life. When you're thirty and forty,

224
00:11:38.679 --> 00:11:41.159
you're planning differently than when you're fifty, and you're definitely

225
00:11:41.200 --> 00:11:44.480
planning differently when you're in sixty, seventy eighty years old.

226
00:11:45.279 --> 00:11:48.799
And the planning is what's so important. And we do

227
00:11:48.840 --> 00:11:52.000
that every day, and it's gotten better and better and better.

228
00:11:52.039 --> 00:11:55.480
And it's not just to sell insurance products like that's

229
00:11:55.480 --> 00:11:58.360
the way it was. For almost thirty years. I was

230
00:11:58.360 --> 00:12:02.000
in the business financial plans. So the insurance guy can

231
00:12:02.039 --> 00:12:05.399
go ahead and sell you insurance. And it's not just

232
00:12:05.480 --> 00:12:09.080
life insurance, it's all types of insurance products, annuities, or

233
00:12:09.080 --> 00:12:11.320
whatever it was. That's what they did to show you

234
00:12:11.360 --> 00:12:14.039
to do it. Our financial plans are actually setting you

235
00:12:14.159 --> 00:12:17.960
up on how much income can you take over period

236
00:12:17.960 --> 00:12:22.000
of time and be able to still sustain your net worth,

237
00:12:22.039 --> 00:12:27.360
your capital and even see some growth. Very important, very important.

238
00:12:27.600 --> 00:12:31.840
So as we move through week to week, day to day,

239
00:12:32.480 --> 00:12:35.080
you know, and get excited about Trump and his administration,

240
00:12:36.159 --> 00:12:39.399
obviously we start we keep hearing about these tariffs. That's

241
00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:41.960
the biggest thing, because you know, let's face it on that,

242
00:12:42.320 --> 00:12:45.159
you know, the biggest reason he won is because of pricing.

243
00:12:45.519 --> 00:12:48.480
Where the prices were, where people were, you know, they

244
00:12:48.480 --> 00:12:51.200
couldn't afford things well, and they're still kind of there.

245
00:12:51.679 --> 00:12:53.720
But the oil prices have been coming down a little bit.

246
00:12:53.759 --> 00:12:56.600
You know, you see some inflation coming down, but remember

247
00:12:56.639 --> 00:13:00.240
the inflation is coming down, but it's still inflation, you know.

248
00:13:00.279 --> 00:13:03.720
And if wages aren't increasing, they are not and corporations

249
00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:07.799
can't increase wages unless they're making money. So everyone's afraid

250
00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:11.000
that if he hits twenty five percent taxes on Mexico

251
00:13:11.080 --> 00:13:14.679
and Canada and China, you know, increasing go by ten percent,

252
00:13:14.759 --> 00:13:17.320
all the costs are going to go higher. Well, I'm

253
00:13:17.360 --> 00:13:19.879
not going to say that at some time in the

254
00:13:19.919 --> 00:13:22.399
beginning of doing it, if he did hit it right away,

255
00:13:22.720 --> 00:13:24.960
that sometime down the road to court, they don't go

256
00:13:25.039 --> 00:13:28.519
up a little bit higher. But no one's talking about

257
00:13:28.559 --> 00:13:32.120
the effect of the other side of it. The Mexican

258
00:13:32.360 --> 00:13:36.399
president the Canadian president both getting in touch and say, hey,

259
00:13:36.600 --> 00:13:39.159
let's work a deal here. We know you want terrorists,

260
00:13:39.200 --> 00:13:41.840
you know you want this, Let's work a deal. We

261
00:13:41.960 --> 00:13:44.080
know you want to shut the borders. If we shut

262
00:13:44.080 --> 00:13:47.440
the borders, I don't want you giving us these extra terrists.

263
00:13:47.759 --> 00:13:50.399
But in the meantime, it's not just about the borders.

264
00:13:51.799 --> 00:13:57.720
It's about the Chinese infiltrating Mexico and making them a

265
00:13:57.840 --> 00:14:03.799
richer country by doing and producing you know, goods there,

266
00:14:04.919 --> 00:14:07.679
and no one's seeing the bigger picture. I don't want

267
00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:12.440
China in Mexico. It's bad enough they're infiltrating us with

268
00:14:12.519 --> 00:14:17.080
the fentanyl, which we're gonna shut that down, okay, but

269
00:14:17.159 --> 00:14:20.039
I don't want them let them produce overseas. They stop

270
00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:23.440
producing in Mexico and flooding them with stuff. It's gonna

271
00:14:23.559 --> 00:14:26.039
and then then everyone's gonna want to go to Mexico

272
00:14:26.480 --> 00:14:31.879
to buy stuff, and then they're gonna make Mexico wealthy

273
00:14:32.399 --> 00:14:34.679
on the back of the Chinese, and then the right

274
00:14:34.720 --> 00:14:38.320
and our backyard don't want it. You think the Chinese

275
00:14:38.399 --> 00:14:40.519
are doing it out of the goodness of the heart.

276
00:14:40.559 --> 00:14:43.639
They don't do that. They're coming into Mexico, they're coming

277
00:14:43.679 --> 00:14:47.320
into Africa. They're taking up the raw materials, and that's

278
00:14:47.360 --> 00:14:50.320
how they want to take over the world. They want

279
00:14:50.320 --> 00:14:52.399
to be in charge of the things that everybody needs.

280
00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:56.600
We need to keep North America from Canada all the

281
00:14:56.639 --> 00:15:02.320
way down to Central America Chinese free. Okay, we need

282
00:15:02.360 --> 00:15:05.720
to keep them Chinese free. We do not need that.

283
00:15:06.039 --> 00:15:09.080
We need to be the ones helping Mexico get rich.

284
00:15:09.799 --> 00:15:12.519
We need to be the ones that are helping Mexico

285
00:15:12.919 --> 00:15:16.080
have the have the ability to to give us cheap

286
00:15:16.120 --> 00:15:18.879
labor to move into the United States. We have to

287
00:15:18.879 --> 00:15:22.159
have a compromise with them. Everything cannot just be built

288
00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:25.720
in the United States. It's not gonna happen. That's not capitalism,

289
00:15:26.039 --> 00:15:28.080
and it's certainly going to shut off. But why can't

290
00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:33.519
we use Mexico instead of China and all the Asia.

291
00:15:33.639 --> 00:15:36.159
It would be cheaper for all of us, even if

292
00:15:36.200 --> 00:15:39.200
it costs a little bit more On Mexico, And why

293
00:15:39.279 --> 00:15:42.840
what don't we want to make our border states as

294
00:15:42.840 --> 00:15:47.679
strong as possible on our backs so that way, if

295
00:15:47.720 --> 00:15:51.799
anything happens, we work together. It's the one thing we

296
00:15:51.919 --> 00:15:55.200
have is you got to come by air land. You

297
00:15:55.240 --> 00:15:57.120
can't come by land. You got to come by air

298
00:15:57.559 --> 00:16:03.000
or sea to attack us. Okay, it's not like a

299
00:16:03.039 --> 00:16:05.799
Russia situation in China where you can just move across

300
00:16:05.799 --> 00:16:08.840
the border and now you got Europe. All right, No,

301
00:16:09.120 --> 00:16:10.679
you can't do that with us. But if you all

302
00:16:10.720 --> 00:16:13.320
of a sudden in Mexico and you're loading into Mexico,

303
00:16:13.799 --> 00:16:16.360
it's a hell of a lot easier to attack us

304
00:16:16.360 --> 00:16:19.559
from Mexico than it is from China. So we need

305
00:16:19.559 --> 00:16:23.799
to be very, very very careful on how much we

306
00:16:23.919 --> 00:16:26.879
allow Mexico to have a relationship with China. And then

307
00:16:26.919 --> 00:16:29.519
you do and you know, if I had a bet,

308
00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:34.759
most of the Chinese relationships of Mexico are cartel related.

309
00:16:35.080 --> 00:16:37.000
I would love to see America make a deal with

310
00:16:37.080 --> 00:16:39.600
Mexico that we will send our people in with their

311
00:16:39.639 --> 00:16:44.240
help and clean out Mexico cartel. Wouldn't that be nice?

312
00:16:45.039 --> 00:16:47.080
That'd be nice to do it all around the world.

313
00:16:47.200 --> 00:16:49.279
But at least we can do it in our own backyard.

314
00:16:49.679 --> 00:16:52.120
Get rid of it. Let's work together. We've tried that,

315
00:16:52.200 --> 00:16:54.919
We've been working together for a long time. Let them

316
00:16:54.960 --> 00:16:57.200
shut down the border for us. Let us work a

317
00:16:57.279 --> 00:17:00.600
deal so it works across the board for every everybody.

318
00:17:01.080 --> 00:17:04.160
And it is going to be America first, and anyone

319
00:17:04.200 --> 00:17:06.839
that has a problem with America first, I have a

320
00:17:06.920 --> 00:17:11.000
problem with because you cannot be strong for the world

321
00:17:11.680 --> 00:17:14.880
if you're not strong for yourself. And that's a hard

322
00:17:14.960 --> 00:17:18.759
concept for socialists because they want more and more and more,

323
00:17:18.799 --> 00:17:21.319
but they're not strong enough themselves to help anybody out.

324
00:17:21.359 --> 00:17:24.440
They're always got their hand out wanting more for themselves.

325
00:17:24.960 --> 00:17:26.720
I do not want to go down and become a

326
00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:30.279
socialistic country. I want to stay the strongest economy in

327
00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:33.160
the world. I want to be ahead on technology. I

328
00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:36.119
want people having to use our dollar come to us

329
00:17:36.319 --> 00:17:39.920
because we are the sustainable country that moves forward. And

330
00:17:39.920 --> 00:17:42.400
we're going in that direction. And Trump is going to

331
00:17:42.480 --> 00:17:44.400
keep us in that direction, and we are going to

332
00:17:44.400 --> 00:17:47.039
be stronger. And I'm telling you we're going to see

333
00:17:47.680 --> 00:17:53.400
these wars probably start coming to a halt at least

334
00:17:53.400 --> 00:17:54.680
I'm not going to say to an end, but at

335
00:17:54.759 --> 00:17:58.319
least a halt as we see conversations going on. And

336
00:17:58.359 --> 00:18:02.200
the key to that is China. So we need to

337
00:18:02.240 --> 00:18:05.200
have a relationship with China where they stay in their

338
00:18:05.319 --> 00:18:08.319
area and we stay in ours. But they help us

339
00:18:08.640 --> 00:18:12.880
with Russia and Ukraine. They can they have a plan

340
00:18:12.960 --> 00:18:16.079
for ceasefire. It's just never been brought to the table.

341
00:18:16.799 --> 00:18:20.240
Let's see what's going on. Let's open it up. There's

342
00:18:20.279 --> 00:18:25.359
nothing wrong with being friends, not friends, acquaintances with these

343
00:18:25.440 --> 00:18:29.200
other countries to go ahead. They get some, we get some,

344
00:18:29.440 --> 00:18:32.160
but we always know where we're going. But if they

345
00:18:32.160 --> 00:18:38.000
can help stop these wars with Putin and then and

346
00:18:38.039 --> 00:18:40.160
then with and down and down in the Middle East

347
00:18:40.200 --> 00:18:43.039
and we start getting peace, piece is the first way

348
00:18:43.079 --> 00:18:46.480
we can start growing. And who's gonna make all the

349
00:18:46.519 --> 00:18:48.799
money in Ukraine when it's starting to get rebuilt up.

350
00:18:49.319 --> 00:18:51.799
Think about that. Who's gonna be the ones that are

351
00:18:51.799 --> 00:18:53.599
paying for it? I don't want to be the one

352
00:18:53.640 --> 00:18:55.839
paying for it. And other people getting the money better

353
00:18:55.839 --> 00:19:01.279
be American companies that will be better fitting from us

354
00:19:01.319 --> 00:19:04.920
when we rebuilding Ukraine. Now, is Ukraine gonna have to

355
00:19:04.920 --> 00:19:08.440
give up some? Probably? Do they want to know? Would

356
00:19:08.480 --> 00:19:11.119
I want to know? But if I can end the

357
00:19:11.119 --> 00:19:14.160
war and stop the killing, would I do something? Probably

358
00:19:14.960 --> 00:19:18.119
that's what compromises all about. But you're gonna have to

359
00:19:18.119 --> 00:19:22.200
make Putin feel like, you know, he he's not giving

360
00:19:22.279 --> 00:19:25.039
up too much, that he's winning. Ukraine's gonna have to

361
00:19:25.039 --> 00:19:27.960
feel like they're winning. And somehow, some way, they each

362
00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:30.240
got to get something. And when they do, we can

363
00:19:30.279 --> 00:19:32.200
see the end of the war there, see the end

364
00:19:32.200 --> 00:19:34.640
of the war in the Middle East, and stop growing

365
00:19:34.640 --> 00:19:37.720
this cut the world. We start doing that stuff. America

366
00:19:37.759 --> 00:19:40.920
is going to be strong again. It will be You're

367
00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:45.480
gonna see you're going to see the tax the Trump taxes.

368
00:19:45.880 --> 00:19:49.440
You're going to see them, obviously in some shape or form.

369
00:19:49.480 --> 00:19:51.720
If there's going to be any more increase or decrease

370
00:19:51.759 --> 00:19:55.680
in taxes, that's gonna be ratified. You're probably gonna see

371
00:19:55.880 --> 00:19:59.160
corporate tax come down a little bit, probably not fifteen percent,

372
00:19:59.240 --> 00:20:02.160
but maybe eighteen percent. That's what he wants. He wants

373
00:20:02.200 --> 00:20:06.000
corporations to be here and paying taxes to us. Maybe

374
00:20:06.039 --> 00:20:08.519
the way they pay taxes, maybe that needs to change

375
00:20:08.519 --> 00:20:11.000
a little bit so we actually don't see these billion

376
00:20:11.079 --> 00:20:15.599
dollar companies. Remember, it's always the tax code that makes

377
00:20:15.640 --> 00:20:20.039
the difference. The tax code. They don't cheat, well, most

378
00:20:20.079 --> 00:20:23.799
of them don't cheat on purpose. They have all these accountants,

379
00:20:24.000 --> 00:20:27.119
it's what the tax code allows them. Why only simplify

380
00:20:27.200 --> 00:20:29.839
all that, you know, I always have said that, simplified

381
00:20:29.920 --> 00:20:32.799
so everyone understands how much you got to pay in taxes.

382
00:20:33.640 --> 00:20:36.720
But you know, at the end of the day, it's

383
00:20:36.759 --> 00:20:41.839
about compromise, give it a little bit, taking a little bit,

384
00:20:42.319 --> 00:20:45.119
and moving forward. And I do think that in a

385
00:20:45.200 --> 00:20:47.000
year from now, we're going to feel a lot different

386
00:20:47.039 --> 00:20:49.519
than we do now. And I hopefully, I believe in

387
00:20:49.519 --> 00:20:52.319
my heart, is going to be very positive. I think

388
00:20:52.359 --> 00:20:54.640
we're going to see things that are done quicker than

389
00:20:54.680 --> 00:20:57.640
we've ever seen before. I think that that the red

390
00:20:57.680 --> 00:21:01.359
tape and regulations are going to help, and it's gonna

391
00:21:01.880 --> 00:21:07.440
incentitize companies to be able to invest money and go forward.

392
00:21:07.960 --> 00:21:09.880
You know, when I when I look at where we've

393
00:21:09.880 --> 00:21:12.799
been and what we're doing, and and and and and

394
00:21:12.839 --> 00:21:17.880
politically changes people's minds, but it really doesn't, because if

395
00:21:17.880 --> 00:21:19.960
you think about it, what has changed since Trump got

396
00:21:20.000 --> 00:21:22.839
into there, Nothing really has changed that much. Maybe he's

397
00:21:22.880 --> 00:21:25.319
gonna get a little bit more transparent and we're gonna

398
00:21:25.319 --> 00:21:28.559
see stuff everyone's worried about everything. It's so funny to

399
00:21:28.599 --> 00:21:31.680
me because you know, almost everyone agrees that we had

400
00:21:31.720 --> 00:21:35.559
to do something with the border. Okay, but now when

401
00:21:35.559 --> 00:21:38.839
it comes to uh deporting people and getting rid of

402
00:21:38.839 --> 00:21:41.400
the people that don't belong here because they're not illegally,

403
00:21:41.880 --> 00:21:43.759
then everyone's up in an uproar. Why I don't want

404
00:21:43.759 --> 00:21:46.319
them separating there? So separating that or there's a it's

405
00:21:46.359 --> 00:21:48.519
probably gonna happen on a little bit here and a

406
00:21:48.519 --> 00:21:51.480
little bit there. We won't know all the details, guys,

407
00:21:51.920 --> 00:21:53.960
but the news is gonna blow it up every time,

408
00:21:54.359 --> 00:21:56.000
you know it. They're gonna want them to look bad.

409
00:21:56.039 --> 00:21:58.519
But at the end of the day, they're gonna be

410
00:21:58.559 --> 00:22:01.359
working on the criminals and the people that are terrorists

411
00:22:01.400 --> 00:22:04.640
that don't belong in our country that are here. They're

412
00:22:04.640 --> 00:22:06.839
gonna go after the people that aren't going for their

413
00:22:07.640 --> 00:22:11.759
dates that are due, and they're gonna keep winding it down. Okay.

414
00:22:12.200 --> 00:22:14.759
I know people worried about people here five, ten, twenty

415
00:22:14.839 --> 00:22:17.680
years way before all this stuff is going on. I

416
00:22:17.720 --> 00:22:21.119
don't know what's gonna happen from there. We'll see, all right,

417
00:22:21.359 --> 00:22:23.400
I don't think that's what we're trying to do. We

418
00:22:23.519 --> 00:22:26.279
know there is a lot of great immigrants and people

419
00:22:26.279 --> 00:22:29.119
that are here illegally that are helping America grow and

420
00:22:29.200 --> 00:22:32.440
have jobs and paying taxes. We gotta look at it

421
00:22:32.640 --> 00:22:36.079
with common sense. They don't need to go, but if

422
00:22:36.119 --> 00:22:38.680
you do something wrong, you need to go. If you

423
00:22:38.720 --> 00:22:40.799
came in in the last three or four years, there's

424
00:22:40.799 --> 00:22:44.000
no reason why you should be here none. You've been

425
00:22:44.039 --> 00:22:48.519
here illegally. Okay, that's what we're talking about. And there's

426
00:22:48.599 --> 00:22:51.160
millions and millions of them that they have come in illegally.

427
00:22:51.359 --> 00:22:52.480
And I want to hear this all. How are you

428
00:22:52.480 --> 00:22:55.839
gonna feel the jobs and do this? We'll fill the jobs. Remember,

429
00:22:57.599 --> 00:23:04.160
people complain without solutions. People complain without change. You cannot

430
00:23:04.200 --> 00:23:07.960
move forward. You cannot be successful if you don't look

431
00:23:08.000 --> 00:23:11.039
at what you're doing and what's not working. Change it.

432
00:23:11.640 --> 00:23:14.400
If you don't change it, you're in the same old

433
00:23:14.480 --> 00:23:17.640
rut trying to make excuses. And that's how we look

434
00:23:17.640 --> 00:23:21.319
at what's happened over the last couple of years and

435
00:23:21.440 --> 00:23:25.599
what's going on. Excuses are for people that are mediocre.

436
00:23:26.319 --> 00:23:30.359
Change is for people that want to be great, do

437
00:23:30.519 --> 00:23:34.200
the things that matter. Yes there's risk involved, and yes

438
00:23:34.359 --> 00:23:36.720
not everything works, but at the end of the day,

439
00:23:36.759 --> 00:23:40.119
when you're changing and you're doing things different that gives

440
00:23:40.160 --> 00:23:43.440
you the ability to win. It's no different than what

441
00:23:43.519 --> 00:23:48.119
we did at Tucson High. We changed the mentality of

442
00:23:48.160 --> 00:23:52.480
the kids, We changed the mentality of the culture. We

443
00:23:52.759 --> 00:23:57.920
changed the relationship with the administration at Dylan and myself

444
00:23:58.000 --> 00:24:01.359
and all the other coaches, Zach laugh who's very close

445
00:24:01.400 --> 00:24:04.240
with the head coach. We went ahead and did stuff

446
00:24:04.279 --> 00:24:09.720
there that hasn't been done since nineteen seventy one. In

447
00:24:09.759 --> 00:24:12.759
a year and a half. Two years we took over

448
00:24:12.799 --> 00:24:14.960
the team. Last year, we went to the team. This year.

449
00:24:15.200 --> 00:24:17.319
We went from never there, never not being able to

450
00:24:17.359 --> 00:24:19.640
win more than seven games to winning nine, winning a

451
00:24:19.640 --> 00:24:24.319
playoff game at home because we changed the way things

452
00:24:24.319 --> 00:24:28.160
were done. You change things, you do things that historic,

453
00:24:28.559 --> 00:24:31.319
So expect that to happen in the next four years.

454
00:24:31.319 --> 00:24:34.079
We'll be back with everybody. Hope everyone's having a good Thanksgiving,

455
00:24:34.880 --> 00:24:40.160
and thank you for listening. Welcome back to everybody to

456
00:24:40.240 --> 00:24:45.240
our Thanksgiving version of the Moneybotty show Man. One month

457
00:24:45.240 --> 00:24:46.920
and now we're gonna be in twenty twenty five.

458
00:24:47.480 --> 00:24:51.160
Yes, who thought right? It's gone quick amazing.

459
00:24:51.480 --> 00:24:53.359
So many things have happened but it all led up

460
00:24:53.400 --> 00:24:54.240
to the election.

461
00:24:54.480 --> 00:24:56.640
You know who did think the calendar?

462
00:24:57.039 --> 00:25:02.160
Yes, indeed, oh, now the calendar is ai pretty much. Yeah,

463
00:25:03.799 --> 00:25:04.279
they think.

464
00:25:05.200 --> 00:25:07.960
Hey, the market served up a good week for us. Yeah,

465
00:25:08.000 --> 00:25:10.839
it was a good dish, new all time highs. Again.

466
00:25:12.160 --> 00:25:14.960
We've got everybody in the house. We've had the Greenberg

467
00:25:15.000 --> 00:25:17.680
boys in and out with their coaching, and we talked

468
00:25:17.680 --> 00:25:20.279
about it a little bit on the radio, and we

469
00:25:20.400 --> 00:25:23.160
want to congratulate them. You know, only one team wins

470
00:25:23.160 --> 00:25:27.160
their last game, and it wasn't you, but nine and three.

471
00:25:27.319 --> 00:25:30.839
Very impressive. And I got me thinking last year at

472
00:25:30.839 --> 00:25:33.720
one point you were one and five. Yes, so of

473
00:25:33.759 --> 00:25:37.039
the last sixteen games, you're thirteen and three, right, pretty

474
00:25:37.079 --> 00:25:38.880
darn good for a school that has no history of

475
00:25:39.359 --> 00:25:42.680
And you know why I got I have some thoughts

476
00:25:42.720 --> 00:25:43.000
on it.

477
00:25:43.039 --> 00:25:45.119
But we changed it. We changed what we were doing.

478
00:25:45.200 --> 00:25:47.039
I remember you were one and five. You called everybody

479
00:25:47.039 --> 00:25:48.519
in your office, closed the door and you were in

480
00:25:48.559 --> 00:25:50.640
there for like four hours and you came out and

481
00:25:50.680 --> 00:25:51.960
the rest of the history.

482
00:25:51.880 --> 00:25:55.680
You when things ongoing, right, you change it. I did.

483
00:25:55.759 --> 00:25:56.559
Yeah, I heard you.

484
00:25:56.599 --> 00:26:01.000
Because it's so people don't use that enough about changing things.

485
00:26:01.039 --> 00:26:02.920
Yeah, well, if the status quo wasn't working. You got

486
00:26:02.920 --> 00:26:04.519
to figure out something to change and how to make

487
00:26:04.559 --> 00:26:07.079
it better. Right, just keep doing what you're doing. But

488
00:26:07.200 --> 00:26:09.079
that's what was going on for fifty one years there.

489
00:26:09.119 --> 00:26:11.319
Well, people complain. You keep doing what you're doing, and

490
00:26:11.359 --> 00:26:12.200
you complain about it.

491
00:26:12.400 --> 00:26:13.720
Yeah, blah blah blah.

492
00:26:13.880 --> 00:26:17.599
When you change things and do something good results can happen.

493
00:26:17.799 --> 00:26:19.240
We'll congratulations.

494
00:26:19.559 --> 00:26:21.880
Yeah, we appreciate that. E thinkt and Zach Zach did

495
00:26:21.920 --> 00:26:23.240
a great job as his head culture.

496
00:26:23.599 --> 00:26:26.039
It's all culture like in general, not just on the field.

497
00:26:26.039 --> 00:26:29.759
I mean, the whole acultive GPA went up almost point

498
00:26:29.960 --> 00:26:31.359
six point seven.

499
00:26:31.799 --> 00:26:34.880
Really, yeah, we're three are three point twenty five is

500
00:26:34.920 --> 00:26:37.759
an overall GPA for our football teach.

501
00:26:37.720 --> 00:26:39.920
The kids how to be the kids are learning how

502
00:26:39.920 --> 00:26:40.640
to be winners.

503
00:26:40.880 --> 00:26:43.880
Yeah, well starts with that. We were very tough on.

504
00:26:43.960 --> 00:26:46.160
Off the field stuff. That's you got to change.

505
00:26:46.039 --> 00:26:47.720
Both in on the field and in the classroom.

506
00:26:47.799 --> 00:26:49.640
And we got rid of a couple of good players

507
00:26:49.680 --> 00:26:52.880
that were a problem off the field. They just couldn't

508
00:26:53.039 --> 00:26:54.559
you know what I mean. We didn't need that coming

509
00:26:54.599 --> 00:26:57.599
on to us. And it worked, and then our relationship

510
00:26:57.640 --> 00:27:00.759
with the administration got better and and and all. So

511
00:27:00.920 --> 00:27:02.599
there's one thing left we have to do. We have

512
00:27:02.640 --> 00:27:05.519
to change the culture of the parents. The parents don't

513
00:27:05.559 --> 00:27:08.839
understand because they haven't been in this position. They always

514
00:27:08.839 --> 00:27:10.720
want to see their kids do stuff and do things,

515
00:27:10.759 --> 00:27:13.839
but you know, they have to be involved. At soell Point,

516
00:27:13.880 --> 00:27:15.839
when Dylan was at South Point and they were whening,

517
00:27:15.839 --> 00:27:18.000
all the parents are involved. Whatever you need to get done.

518
00:27:18.200 --> 00:27:20.880
It wasn't ten percent of the parents. It was seventy

519
00:27:20.920 --> 00:27:22.720
five percent of the parents said what do I have

520
00:27:22.759 --> 00:27:24.759
to do to get it done? And they got it done.

521
00:27:24.960 --> 00:27:27.039
Here it's the opposite right now. We couldn't even get

522
00:27:27.160 --> 00:27:31.400
enough parents to do the snack bar during the playoffs. Okay,

523
00:27:31.480 --> 00:27:34.400
so we gave up like four thousand dollars during the playoffs. Yeah,

524
00:27:34.400 --> 00:27:36.240
and you got to get the lower level years. You

525
00:27:36.319 --> 00:27:38.519
have to get the lower level parents to be able

526
00:27:38.519 --> 00:27:40.799
to do that, okay. And they didn't want to do

527
00:27:40.880 --> 00:27:43.319
it because they have excuses. You know what I mean.

528
00:27:43.359 --> 00:27:44.480
I don't want to be that I got work, I

529
00:27:44.519 --> 00:27:47.240
got this. Okay, everyone's busy. But at the end of

530
00:27:47.240 --> 00:27:49.640
the day, if you want to be a consistent winner,

531
00:27:49.880 --> 00:27:52.960
you got to change the program culture from the parents down.

532
00:27:52.960 --> 00:27:55.839
We change the culture of the kids. You change the

533
00:27:55.839 --> 00:27:59.200
culture of the of the administration, the relationship of it.

534
00:27:59.559 --> 00:28:01.599
And now you got to go get the now. Don't

535
00:28:01.599 --> 00:28:05.160
get me wrong. The Booster club and what twenty of

536
00:28:05.160 --> 00:28:09.920
those parents they do everything, everything, dave everything, and that's

537
00:28:10.079 --> 00:28:12.440
unfair when you have a hundred families.

538
00:28:12.680 --> 00:28:14.960
Yeah, it's an amazing turnaround, and so much so that

539
00:28:15.000 --> 00:28:18.319
it made the evening news though it was it was

540
00:28:18.359 --> 00:28:20.079
so historic that it made the news.

541
00:28:20.359 --> 00:28:22.039
Well, the cool thing is is when you were playing

542
00:28:22.039 --> 00:28:26.319
the Phoenix teams, they were they were so impressed. Ago,

543
00:28:26.400 --> 00:28:28.359
I can't believe you guys did this in two years,

544
00:28:28.640 --> 00:28:30.440
he says. Two Son High used to be a threat.

545
00:28:31.000 --> 00:28:33.160
No one even knows about him. Everyone loved playing them.

546
00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:35.759
Nobody was tough, nobody was there, you know.

547
00:28:35.759 --> 00:28:36.119
What I mean.

548
00:28:36.240 --> 00:28:39.279
And and now you guys change it just quickly, which

549
00:28:39.640 --> 00:28:42.319
is unbelievable in this in this environment.

550
00:28:42.559 --> 00:28:44.920
And we're proud of you. There's a great, great deal

551
00:28:44.920 --> 00:28:47.559
and it's speaking of great how about this market, it's unbelievable, Dean.

552
00:28:47.599 --> 00:28:51.240
You and I both getting a little uncomfortable. Yeah, well,

553
00:28:51.279 --> 00:28:54.599
stretched out stretched out a little bit much here. Generally,

554
00:28:54.599 --> 00:28:56.599
when you get more than ten percent above the two

555
00:28:56.680 --> 00:28:59.039
hundred day movie and average, you're gonna have a pullback,

556
00:28:59.400 --> 00:28:59.880
and I'm not.

557
00:29:00.279 --> 00:29:01.119
So far are we? Now?

558
00:29:01.319 --> 00:29:03.799
Huh? How far are we by the twenty twenty six Yeah? Yeah,

559
00:29:03.839 --> 00:29:06.440
ten point six. It got to twelve in July before

560
00:29:06.440 --> 00:29:07.839
a ten percent correction.

561
00:29:08.519 --> 00:29:09.920
So you never know it's going to be a crash.

562
00:29:09.960 --> 00:29:12.480
You can't talk about a crash because something has to

563
00:29:12.519 --> 00:29:15.359
happen that we don't know, no crash to happen, Okay.

564
00:29:15.519 --> 00:29:18.799
But we can talk about is the elevation of the

565
00:29:18.839 --> 00:29:22.400
markets of where they are and the underpinnings of the market,

566
00:29:22.640 --> 00:29:25.720
so if something happens, it can go down a lot

567
00:29:25.759 --> 00:29:28.400
more than normal. Like if we were, say, if we

568
00:29:28.440 --> 00:29:31.480
were at five thousand right now and something happened, it

569
00:29:31.480 --> 00:29:34.160
wouldn't be as bad as we are when we're sixty

570
00:29:34.799 --> 00:29:37.960
six thousand on the SMP Yeah okay. And that's the

571
00:29:38.039 --> 00:29:40.960
difference is you don't have the supporting cast underneath it

572
00:29:41.039 --> 00:29:43.640
because all these stocks are so high. Think about two

573
00:29:43.720 --> 00:29:47.480
years ago, twenty twenty two, going into December. Whoever thought

574
00:29:47.720 --> 00:29:50.400
we would see Amazon at seventy five? You would see

575
00:29:50.559 --> 00:29:55.519
the video the video went down to what one ten? Okay. Granted, guys,

576
00:29:55.680 --> 00:29:58.799
I know it's one thirty eight. They split ten to one.

577
00:29:58.920 --> 00:30:01.680
Yeah, so that'd be like going from one thousands or

578
00:30:01.799 --> 00:30:03.519
from one thirty eight to like fifty.

579
00:30:04.279 --> 00:30:07.279
Yeah, it's absolutely maybe. I think that the big item

580
00:30:07.319 --> 00:30:11.880
this week, probably the most significant story was the Treasury Secretary,

581
00:30:12.359 --> 00:30:16.119
and that was a huge story with scottent I think

582
00:30:16.200 --> 00:30:19.640
is the way you pronounced it name Treasury secretary, the

583
00:30:19.640 --> 00:30:24.759
founder of the Keysquare Fund, a lot of money management background,

584
00:30:24.759 --> 00:30:28.119
friendly to the market. But what I took away from it,

585
00:30:28.440 --> 00:30:30.519
for the most part, was that they believe he can

586
00:30:30.640 --> 00:30:36.000
mitigate some of Trump's more radical thinking. That was as

587
00:30:36.039 --> 00:30:37.079
far as trade goes.

588
00:30:37.920 --> 00:30:41.559
I'd appreciate it if you stopped putting the word Trump

589
00:30:41.799 --> 00:30:44.559
with the same stuff that the liberals talk about. Okay,

590
00:30:44.759 --> 00:30:48.599
because he's not radical, no no changes. You say radical,

591
00:30:48.920 --> 00:30:52.920
you think that he's a crazy white guy, He's not. Okay, Okay,

592
00:30:53.000 --> 00:30:54.279
So let's get on the same paper.

593
00:30:54.359 --> 00:30:56.720
What word would you like me to use to describe

594
00:30:57.240 --> 00:30:59.240
ideas that are a little bit outside.

595
00:30:58.880 --> 00:31:01.720
The box, controverse policies, ideas?

596
00:31:01.759 --> 00:31:04.920
Okay, that's exactly what they are. The ideas to throw

597
00:31:04.960 --> 00:31:07.599
out there that are outside the box. That's why he's

598
00:31:07.599 --> 00:31:10.079
as successful as he's been in his life because you

599
00:31:10.119 --> 00:31:12.640
come up with things and then you listen to people

600
00:31:12.680 --> 00:31:14.640
and you kind of change it until it gets there.

601
00:31:14.960 --> 00:31:18.119
It wasn't. It wasn't a derogatory remark.

602
00:31:18.240 --> 00:31:19.160
Well it comes across that way.

603
00:31:19.200 --> 00:31:20.799
Oh I'm sorry about that, because that's not how.

604
00:31:21.480 --> 00:31:23.240
I know it was me. I know you didn't vote

605
00:31:23.279 --> 00:31:24.279
for Trump, but that's okay.

606
00:31:24.440 --> 00:31:29.279
I voted for I couldn't get two years ago you

607
00:31:29.319 --> 00:31:30.880
were not. I voted for Trump, but.

608
00:31:30.920 --> 00:31:33.079
It came around though. It's interesting.

609
00:31:33.160 --> 00:31:35.240
Well, you had a choice and you had to make

610
00:31:35.279 --> 00:31:38.279
it right, and I think it was probably one of

611
00:31:38.319 --> 00:31:41.160
the more interesting choices in history. But you know, you

612
00:31:41.240 --> 00:31:43.079
make the choice and you say, well, do I want

613
00:31:43.400 --> 00:31:46.160
this guy or do I want her? You know, and

614
00:31:46.200 --> 00:31:49.880
it's got nothing to do with her her sex at all.

615
00:31:50.279 --> 00:31:52.400
I think that one of the things we haven't tried

616
00:31:52.799 --> 00:31:55.480
is a female president. I'd love to try a female president,

617
00:31:55.799 --> 00:32:00.000
just not her and not Hillary. She will come home.

618
00:32:00.319 --> 00:32:02.359
Someone will come along who will be a good candidate.

619
00:32:02.400 --> 00:32:04.799
You know, it is Thanksgiving weekend. There ought to be

620
00:32:04.880 --> 00:32:07.680
some Thanksgiving fun facts right to go with it. We

621
00:32:07.759 --> 00:32:10.839
got to think about Thanksgiving. I fun facts, No Dean,

622
00:32:11.079 --> 00:32:13.680
no fun facts. Tell me you will be got in

623
00:32:13.720 --> 00:32:15.960
the air like, oh, brother, here you go, just tell me.

624
00:32:16.039 --> 00:32:16.759
I like fun facts.

625
00:32:16.799 --> 00:32:20.359
Well, you know, the first Thanksgiving was sometime late fourteen hundred,

626
00:32:20.440 --> 00:32:23.000
early fifteen hundreds of the pilgrims in the Indians, right,

627
00:32:23.319 --> 00:32:26.559
that was actually the first Thanksgiving. When was the first

628
00:32:26.680 --> 00:32:28.960
official Thanksgiving in the United States?

629
00:32:29.119 --> 00:32:30.880
Nineteen forty two?

630
00:32:31.079 --> 00:32:32.000
Not even close.

631
00:32:33.240 --> 00:32:35.599
They made it the consistent date of the fourth Thursday.

632
00:32:36.039 --> 00:32:37.759
It was nineteen forty two. Was the first year that

633
00:32:37.799 --> 00:32:38.359
became a thing.

634
00:32:38.759 --> 00:32:42.039
Thanks the fourth Thursday.

635
00:32:41.680 --> 00:32:44.400
When they made it like Congress made it like the

636
00:32:44.640 --> 00:32:47.039
federal holiday where it's always going to be the fourth Thursday.

637
00:32:47.119 --> 00:32:48.519
Oh, maybe making it a federal holiday.

638
00:32:48.559 --> 00:32:50.839
Now, I was nineteen forty two. So every year since

639
00:32:50.839 --> 00:32:52.319
it's been the fourth Thursday.

640
00:32:51.960 --> 00:32:57.559
Of the Abraham Lincoln declared the very first Thanksgiving on

641
00:32:57.640 --> 00:33:01.640
October third of eighteen sixty three. And I don't he

642
00:33:01.759 --> 00:33:05.160
must not have said the fourth Thursday. That was Congress

643
00:33:05.160 --> 00:33:08.599
in forty two. What you're thinking, huh, So you're saying

644
00:33:08.680 --> 00:33:12.440
Congress in nineteen forty two made it decided it would be.

645
00:33:12.480 --> 00:33:15.599
The same day, maybe the same Thursday. Yeah, no, they

646
00:33:15.599 --> 00:33:17.599
made it the same Thursday. Every year is what they did.

647
00:33:18.599 --> 00:33:20.720
And then nineteen oh one they decided to have football

648
00:33:20.759 --> 00:33:25.079
on Thanksgiving and that is the good. They didn't have TV's,

649
00:33:25.119 --> 00:33:26.200
but they said football.

650
00:33:26.319 --> 00:33:28.240
It would be nice if they could find some more

651
00:33:28.359 --> 00:33:31.799
compelling games. Though. I looked at the schedule and it really.

652
00:33:31.839 --> 00:33:33.200
Well, they boys gotta have kid.

653
00:33:33.400 --> 00:33:36.279
At the beginning of the year, Chicago and the Lions

654
00:33:36.279 --> 00:33:37.119
looked like a great game.

655
00:33:37.160 --> 00:33:39.039
Maybe it was actually the best game. I mean, you

656
00:33:39.079 --> 00:33:41.279
thought the Packers and the Dolphins would have been a

657
00:33:41.279 --> 00:33:41.880
good game.

658
00:33:41.839 --> 00:33:44.000
That would have been as better than the other two

659
00:33:44.039 --> 00:33:46.000
because the other two featured the two worst teams in

660
00:33:46.000 --> 00:33:46.599
the NFL. Yeah.

661
00:33:46.599 --> 00:33:47.960
I don't think they thought the cow We're going to

662
00:33:48.000 --> 00:33:50.880
have the Cowboys. Cowboys anyway, but you have the Cowboys.

663
00:33:50.920 --> 00:33:52.640
I don't think they you gotta have the Cowboys, right,

664
00:33:52.720 --> 00:33:53.119
you got.

665
00:33:53.319 --> 00:33:54.400
And you always have the Lions.

666
00:33:54.559 --> 00:33:55.680
I always growing up.

667
00:33:55.640 --> 00:33:58.640
It was always the Cowboys in the Indians, the Redskins,

668
00:33:58.920 --> 00:34:05.839
Redskins and the Cowboys, Cowboys, the Riskins. It was it

669
00:34:05.880 --> 00:34:09.880
was like the game, right, but it's.

670
00:34:09.800 --> 00:34:12.320
Always been It's always been the Lions and it's always

671
00:34:12.320 --> 00:34:15.239
been the Cowboys. They always have host on Thanksgiving.

672
00:34:15.400 --> 00:34:17.760
Makes sense that they got Green Bay now too. It's

673
00:34:17.840 --> 00:34:19.159
like all American football.

674
00:34:19.239 --> 00:34:20.960
Yeah, they changed.

675
00:34:22.679 --> 00:34:23.760
To Hope. They have them.

676
00:34:24.559 --> 00:34:26.320
They have the Chargers a couple of years ago. They

677
00:34:26.320 --> 00:34:27.679
go over the place they changed.

678
00:34:27.800 --> 00:34:31.199
You know, it's cool game they change. Yeah, the third game,

679
00:34:31.239 --> 00:34:32.679
not Cowboys and the Lions.

680
00:34:33.079 --> 00:34:36.440
The Cowboys opponent they'll change, of course, always.

681
00:34:36.320 --> 00:34:40.239
An the Lions opponent they change. But the Cowboys Giants

682
00:34:40.440 --> 00:34:43.000
in a great rival until they both saw down.

683
00:34:43.119 --> 00:34:45.280
And the hard knocks. This year is going to be

684
00:34:45.280 --> 00:34:48.000
good with four different teams, the whole AFC North, that's

685
00:34:48.039 --> 00:34:48.880
going to be interesting.

686
00:34:48.960 --> 00:34:51.920
We'll see what's the primary activity on Thanksgiving?

687
00:34:52.320 --> 00:34:53.960
Eating football and.

688
00:34:54.320 --> 00:34:57.039
Absolutely eating without a doubt. Football is so far behind

689
00:34:57.079 --> 00:35:00.599
eating that not even on the same page. They like football,

690
00:35:00.599 --> 00:35:02.800
but there's a lot of people don't watch football. Can

691
00:35:02.800 --> 00:35:07.639
you imagine getting your Thanksgiving meal without a shopping cart,

692
00:35:08.639 --> 00:35:12.760
because that's what people did until nineteen thirty seven when

693
00:35:12.840 --> 00:35:15.079
Nathan Goldman Dean Nathan Goldman.

694
00:35:15.960 --> 00:35:19.039
Okay, you were your Thanksgiving dinner in a shopping cart?

695
00:35:19.119 --> 00:35:22.360
No, no, no, no, he invented the shopping cart.

696
00:35:22.440 --> 00:35:24.239
I mean you didn't go shopping to go get the

697
00:35:24.519 --> 00:35:26.800
Thanksgiving dinner. You came home here in the bag.

698
00:35:27.159 --> 00:35:29.880
Yeah, but can you imagine if, because up until nineteen

699
00:35:29.920 --> 00:35:32.199
thirty seven, what you could take out of the grocery charge,

700
00:35:32.239 --> 00:35:35.000
what you could carry. Yeah, and then the shopping car

701
00:35:35.079 --> 00:35:37.039
came on. What a different Thanksgiving would be if you

702
00:35:37.039 --> 00:35:38.400
didn't have a shopping cart?

703
00:35:38.800 --> 00:35:41.000
Well, how much how skinny we would be if we

704
00:35:41.000 --> 00:35:41.960
didn't have shopping carts?

705
00:35:42.960 --> 00:35:44.719
There is that. You know. My seven year old grandson

706
00:35:44.760 --> 00:35:46.519
at dinner, he came up with a good Thanksgiving one.

707
00:35:46.599 --> 00:35:49.079
He said, why did the turkey cross the road twice?

708
00:35:50.079 --> 00:35:51.840
Why so he wouldn't be chicken?

709
00:35:53.159 --> 00:35:56.679
There we go, fun facts.

710
00:35:56.960 --> 00:35:58.880
You know that's a seven year old, right, That's the

711
00:35:58.920 --> 00:36:03.320
kind of stuff that happens at Thanksgiving dinner. We'll be

712
00:36:03.440 --> 00:36:05.599
right back after this break with more of the Money

713
00:36:05.639 --> 00:36:06.119
Matter Show.

714
00:36:07.360 --> 00:36:11.599
Welcome back, everybody. This is the Thanksgiving session of the

715
00:36:11.639 --> 00:36:12.400
Moneymatter Show.

716
00:36:12.800 --> 00:36:14.519
I had a client tell me a great story. You

717
00:36:14.519 --> 00:36:16.920
want to hear a great Thanksgiving story, kind of warm

718
00:36:16.920 --> 00:36:19.519
your heart type of story on Thanksgiving weekend?

719
00:36:19.840 --> 00:36:20.159
I can't.

720
00:36:23.480 --> 00:36:31.840
I'm missed a Yeah, well, Todd has no heart, so

721
00:36:31.840 --> 00:36:34.719
it's kind of hard to warm his heart. Right.

722
00:36:35.440 --> 00:36:36.960
Hey, you guys, really go out it. I've been gone

723
00:36:36.960 --> 00:36:40.719
from the radio for a while. Nicer to each other.

724
00:36:41.079 --> 00:36:43.559
They're going at it constantly. This is a client of

725
00:36:43.559 --> 00:36:45.840
ours is now in his eighties, and when he was

726
00:36:45.840 --> 00:36:49.760
a kid. One Thanksgiving he was messing around with his

727
00:36:49.800 --> 00:36:53.599
siblings and mom was trying to get Thanksgiving dinner ready,

728
00:36:53.960 --> 00:36:56.800
and she said, would you get to her husband, get

729
00:36:56.800 --> 00:36:59.880
these kids out of here. I need some piece of quiet.

730
00:37:00.280 --> 00:37:02.079
So he took the kids down to his office and

731
00:37:02.199 --> 00:37:03.960
that's kids played down to Delfs for a while, and

732
00:37:03.960 --> 00:37:06.760
of course they inevitably got hungry, and so they went

733
00:37:06.800 --> 00:37:08.960
out to get some deep well and Thanksgiving there isn't

734
00:37:09.000 --> 00:37:11.559
a lot open. This is in Ohio. There isn't a

735
00:37:11.599 --> 00:37:15.119
lot open in Tucson or Ohio. But they came upon

736
00:37:15.199 --> 00:37:18.480
a white castle and the white Castle was open. So

737
00:37:18.519 --> 00:37:20.360
they went into the white Castle. And in the white

738
00:37:20.360 --> 00:37:25.480
Castle were three homeless people who were paying for their

739
00:37:25.519 --> 00:37:30.360
White Castle burgers with change pocket change they had, and

740
00:37:31.199 --> 00:37:34.239
as a lesson in what Thanksgiving is all about, the

741
00:37:34.400 --> 00:37:37.039
dad decided to buy each of them a full bag

742
00:37:37.920 --> 00:37:41.400
of White Castle sliders. So they bought them a whole bag.

743
00:37:41.480 --> 00:37:43.960
The cool part of this story is Schedus in his eighties.

744
00:37:44.639 --> 00:37:50.440
Since that day, every Thanksgiving Mourning, the entire family has

745
00:37:50.679 --> 00:37:54.840
white Castle sliders every single Thanksgiving morning in memory of

746
00:37:54.840 --> 00:37:58.119
that day. And he said, we don't have white Castle

747
00:37:58.159 --> 00:38:00.679
in Tucson. He said, but you can buy frozen white

748
00:38:00.719 --> 00:38:03.199
Castle burgers. And he said, I've got a dozen of

749
00:38:03.199 --> 00:38:04.719
them in the freezer. We're going to pull them out

750
00:38:04.719 --> 00:38:08.320
on Thanksgiving morning and have some sliders as a reminder

751
00:38:08.719 --> 00:38:10.000
of what Thanksgiving is all about.

752
00:38:10.119 --> 00:38:12.679
Have you ever had white Castle? At what time in

753
00:38:12.679 --> 00:38:13.079
the morning?

754
00:38:13.639 --> 00:38:15.280
Uh, six thirty seven?

755
00:38:16.559 --> 00:38:21.199
I met like two am or one am. Yeah, you

756
00:38:21.199 --> 00:38:22.039
never had white Castle?

757
00:38:22.960 --> 00:38:24.400
No sounds disgusting.

758
00:38:25.079 --> 00:38:27.039
Well, we used to do it in college. You go

759
00:38:27.079 --> 00:38:29.760
there because it was they were cheap, But after eating

760
00:38:29.800 --> 00:38:30.559
forty of them.

761
00:38:31.039 --> 00:38:32.880
It was like, yeah, it's like little tiny sliders.

762
00:38:32.880 --> 00:38:36.280
Oh it's two bites and like the cheapest little meeting

763
00:38:36.280 --> 00:38:38.960
in it, but you still have contexts how many kid people?

764
00:38:39.920 --> 00:38:41.440
And then you felt like crap the next day.

765
00:38:41.559 --> 00:38:43.599
I've said before that when I was in uh in

766
00:38:44.079 --> 00:38:45.920
high school, I was a page in the Senate out

767
00:38:45.960 --> 00:38:48.199
in South Dakota and they had a McDonald's out there

768
00:38:48.199 --> 00:38:50.559
and I'd never seen a McDonald's and they were selling

769
00:38:50.599 --> 00:38:54.320
members ten for a dollar, and that was I believe me.

770
00:38:54.320 --> 00:38:58.880
I bought ten of those. Often it's survival, right white

771
00:38:58.920 --> 00:38:59.480
Castle say.

772
00:38:59.519 --> 00:39:01.800
It's amazing. You could have taken five of those burgers

773
00:39:01.800 --> 00:39:03.760
and put them on one. Yeah, and that way you

774
00:39:03.840 --> 00:39:05.519
didn't have to have all the bread and it would

775
00:39:05.519 --> 00:39:08.159
be like an equal to like maybe a burger.

776
00:39:07.880 --> 00:39:09.760
Except I think the breads will make it. You can't

777
00:39:09.800 --> 00:39:10.239
be alive.

778
00:39:12.760 --> 00:39:14.320
We're still thinking about Thanksgiving food.

779
00:39:14.360 --> 00:39:16.639
And listen to us, we all talking about food.

780
00:39:16.679 --> 00:39:18.840
Is still well it is a Thanksgiving weekend. What it's

781
00:39:18.920 --> 00:39:20.239
the primary thing people think?

782
00:39:20.280 --> 00:39:21.599
Do you have turkey and ham?

783
00:39:21.679 --> 00:39:23.159
Turkey and hand ham both?

784
00:39:23.239 --> 00:39:23.480
Yeah?

785
00:39:23.519 --> 00:39:26.199
I don't think I've ever had turkey and ham. Oh

786
00:39:26.239 --> 00:39:29.119
you're kidding me. No, No, do you not have ham?

787
00:39:29.280 --> 00:39:31.599
One of the most people just have turkey?

788
00:39:32.079 --> 00:39:32.840
Yeah, never.

789
00:39:33.239 --> 00:39:35.840
I always had both every time I've been out of

790
00:39:35.840 --> 00:39:36.440
Thanksgiving and.

791
00:39:36.880 --> 00:39:40.039
For Christmas, never gone anywhere. Maybe the Jews have it

792
00:39:40.079 --> 00:39:43.239
for uh and they had both. Yeah, for Thanksgiving, because

793
00:39:43.239 --> 00:39:44.800
we have both every year I've been alive.

794
00:39:44.960 --> 00:39:46.320
Now we have Chinese food tonight.

795
00:39:46.719 --> 00:39:48.519
Oh yeah, yeah, because that's tradition. Right.

796
00:39:48.559 --> 00:39:51.320
Well, Mell's friend came in for California. He's from China,

797
00:39:51.360 --> 00:39:53.760
so he every Friday he makes us Chinese food.

798
00:39:53.960 --> 00:39:55.199
No Chinese food.

799
00:39:56.360 --> 00:39:58.280
No, no, we're not going to kwangmin or whatever the

800
00:39:58.320 --> 00:39:59.679
place is Golden Dragon.

801
00:40:00.119 --> 00:40:02.880
Well, isn't that one of the few restaurants open on thanks.

802
00:40:02.880 --> 00:40:07.440
That's why that is the thing for Jewish people on Christmas,

803
00:40:08.480 --> 00:40:10.400
the Chinese restaurants like the only one.

804
00:40:10.559 --> 00:40:14.880
Yes, but having your own guy Coca real Chinese food.

805
00:40:15.280 --> 00:40:16.920
I can't eat it. Well, I can't eat to eel

806
00:40:17.000 --> 00:40:20.920
and stuff. But everybody else, I mean, give me the dumplings.

807
00:40:21.000 --> 00:40:23.079
We'll get back to the market. The biggest economic report

808
00:40:23.119 --> 00:40:27.440
this week was the PCEE Personal Consumption Expenditure Index, the

809
00:40:27.519 --> 00:40:31.039
Fed's favorite measure of inflation, up two tenths of a

810
00:40:31.119 --> 00:40:35.320
percent from September to October two point three percent year

811
00:40:35.360 --> 00:40:38.039
over year, versus two point one percent that was expected.

812
00:40:38.360 --> 00:40:42.159
But inflation is creeping higher. Gold Ma Sachs put an

813
00:40:42.199 --> 00:40:47.840
interesting study out last week. For every ten percent of tariffs,

814
00:40:48.280 --> 00:40:52.920
you get a point one percent increase in inflation every

815
00:40:52.960 --> 00:40:55.280
ten percent. So that's interesting.

816
00:40:55.360 --> 00:40:57.960
It makes sense. I mean, on a short term basis,

817
00:40:58.000 --> 00:41:00.360
there's no way to get around supply chain. I mean,

818
00:41:00.360 --> 00:41:02.280
if you put a tariff on it, there's going to

819
00:41:02.320 --> 00:41:03.320
be an increase of price.

820
00:41:03.400 --> 00:41:05.480
Somebody has to pay that exactly. Somebody has to.

821
00:41:05.679 --> 00:41:07.840
That does go to the consumer, but everyone thinks it

822
00:41:07.880 --> 00:41:10.920
goes up twenty five percent. Oh yeah, No, everyone thinks

823
00:41:10.960 --> 00:41:13.000
if you have something that you pay one hundred dollars for,

824
00:41:13.039 --> 00:41:15.440
you're not going to pay one hundred and twenty five dollars.

825
00:41:15.760 --> 00:41:17.599
That's not what it is. And that's what they believe.

826
00:41:17.880 --> 00:41:19.800
You pay one hundred dollars, you might pay one hundred

827
00:41:19.840 --> 00:41:21.360
and one and a half for it.

828
00:41:21.480 --> 00:41:24.320
Yeah, like they said, it's a point one so it's

829
00:41:24.360 --> 00:41:27.199
not huge, but on the margins it does increase it.

830
00:41:27.280 --> 00:41:29.039
So on the whole, it comes out.

831
00:41:28.960 --> 00:41:30.679
And they're going to come up with technology and they're

832
00:41:30.679 --> 00:41:33.320
going to come up ways companies to keep course where

833
00:41:33.360 --> 00:41:34.119
they off for a while.

834
00:41:34.480 --> 00:41:36.800
Yeah, And there's there's all saying. You know, you say

835
00:41:36.840 --> 00:41:39.800
something often enough and long enough, people start to believe

836
00:41:39.840 --> 00:41:40.480
it as facts.

837
00:41:40.559 --> 00:41:41.119
They don't know.

838
00:41:41.320 --> 00:41:45.360
I know, but yesterday at dinner Thanksgiving dinner, they're actually

839
00:41:45.400 --> 00:41:49.079
talking about whether not Trumpell cuts Social Security.

840
00:41:49.159 --> 00:41:49.519
Right.

841
00:41:50.320 --> 00:41:53.119
I was saying that the people at the dinner and.

842
00:41:53.079 --> 00:41:55.000
So I've heard that from somebody else to like you said,

843
00:41:55.039 --> 00:41:56.920
that's from somebody else, you heard it, and it's where

844
00:41:56.960 --> 00:41:59.760
does that get hurt from clients that I'm just saying

845
00:42:00.079 --> 00:42:02.280
all that he's talked about for social Security is not

846
00:42:02.400 --> 00:42:02.880
taxing it.

847
00:42:03.000 --> 00:42:04.960
No, exactly, you can make it better.

848
00:42:06.440 --> 00:42:09.559
The only way social Security gets cut is what happens

849
00:42:09.599 --> 00:42:11.920
in Greece and Spain. Yeah, we do not have enough

850
00:42:11.960 --> 00:42:15.480
money to pay out everybody else because everyone else's tapped out.

851
00:42:15.559 --> 00:42:17.599
Yeah, and they're just trying to somebody's trying to blame

852
00:42:17.639 --> 00:42:19.079
Trunk because he's going to be the next president, And

853
00:42:19.079 --> 00:42:21.320
it's every president in the last few years that have

854
00:42:21.480 --> 00:42:23.119
just kicked the can down the road. And that's why

855
00:42:23.119 --> 00:42:24.679
they keep saying it's going to be insolved by twenty

856
00:42:24.719 --> 00:42:26.960
thirty five. Next president is going to just keep trying

857
00:42:27.000 --> 00:42:28.400
to push it to the next guy, so they're to

858
00:42:28.440 --> 00:42:29.239
blame and not them.

859
00:42:29.480 --> 00:42:31.840
I guarantee you what he is going to talk about

860
00:42:32.159 --> 00:42:35.039
when they're reducing the government that if we don't do this,

861
00:42:35.599 --> 00:42:38.119
social Security is going to have a problem. He will

862
00:42:38.159 --> 00:42:41.840
say that, Okay, but if we can cut two trillion

863
00:42:41.880 --> 00:42:45.280
dollars out of the budget year after year and get

864
00:42:45.360 --> 00:42:47.199
rid of the fat and getting the right people and

865
00:42:47.280 --> 00:42:49.320
do to things and run it like a business, which

866
00:42:49.400 --> 00:42:53.519
everyone here has said forever, run the government like a business,

867
00:42:54.119 --> 00:42:55.119
will be in great shape.

868
00:42:55.239 --> 00:42:57.840
Right because you're talking about cutting one third of the

869
00:42:58.000 --> 00:43:01.559
entire federal budget. That's never going to happen, Dane, I believe.

870
00:43:01.239 --> 00:43:03.119
It's well, I believe it over to you.

871
00:43:03.639 --> 00:43:04.599
I do budget.

872
00:43:04.639 --> 00:43:07.079
I do, Dave. I think there's that much fat in

873
00:43:07.119 --> 00:43:10.400
there and that much lousy spending, because what we do

874
00:43:11.360 --> 00:43:14.199
is tell them, if you go ahead and don't spend

875
00:43:14.199 --> 00:43:16.639
the money, we will never increase your budget.

876
00:43:17.320 --> 00:43:20.119
But I don't remember what what percentage of that budget

877
00:43:20.159 --> 00:43:22.159
is entitlement programs, but it's pretty large.

878
00:43:23.159 --> 00:43:24.639
Some entitlements might go away.

879
00:43:25.239 --> 00:43:29.400
There's there's a lot of fat. It will hurt people

880
00:43:29.480 --> 00:43:31.599
if you all of a sudden take it away.

881
00:43:31.880 --> 00:43:33.320
It will There's gonna.

882
00:43:33.079 --> 00:43:34.920
Will a lot of run and guess what, maybe you

883
00:43:34.920 --> 00:43:37.760
go get a job. No are the ones that need help,

884
00:43:39.119 --> 00:43:42.119
you get people on disability, the people that need the stuff.

885
00:43:44.559 --> 00:43:47.079
No matter what happens, no matter if it succeeds, half

886
00:43:47.079 --> 00:43:50.760
the country is still gonna blame him for I lost

887
00:43:50.800 --> 00:43:53.440
my government job because you cut the government. Oh yeah,

888
00:43:53.599 --> 00:43:57.079
you know, I there's gonna be a lot of different stuff.

889
00:43:57.159 --> 00:44:01.079
You know, who knows about immigrant There's he's gonna make enemies,

890
00:44:01.159 --> 00:44:03.559
but in the long run, it's gonna be better for

891
00:44:03.599 --> 00:44:04.800
the country.

892
00:44:05.639 --> 00:44:09.199
The interest rates were five weeks ooh, I don't know

893
00:44:09.320 --> 00:44:10.079
what caused that.

894
00:44:10.639 --> 00:44:13.239
Well, like you said, it's the Treasury Secretary and how

895
00:44:13.280 --> 00:44:16.079
potentially it's not going to be as inflationary, so they

896
00:44:16.480 --> 00:44:19.440
they priced it down again. Mortgage rates stayed around the

897
00:44:19.519 --> 00:44:23.199
same level that they've been but still elevated six point

898
00:44:23.239 --> 00:44:25.639
eight percent. So that's that's why we've seen some of

899
00:44:25.719 --> 00:44:28.440
the late housing figures come out. I've heard some of

900
00:44:28.480 --> 00:44:31.559
the new home builders that you know, they are hitting

901
00:44:31.599 --> 00:44:35.559
their marks of more closings year over year, but the

902
00:44:35.559 --> 00:44:38.079
problem is the revenue figures are still the exact same

903
00:44:38.159 --> 00:44:41.880
year over years, so they're doing more production but same revenue.

904
00:44:42.039 --> 00:44:44.519
I've been saying for months, and I think you all

905
00:44:44.519 --> 00:44:46.760
would agree. Now, more and more for sale signs all

906
00:44:46.800 --> 00:44:50.920
over town without SOULD signs on them. There's a lot

907
00:44:50.960 --> 00:44:51.079
of it.

908
00:44:51.360 --> 00:44:53.119
I don't see it because in my community it's all

909
00:44:53.199 --> 00:44:53.599
new homes.

910
00:44:53.639 --> 00:44:55.440
Well, yeah, you're out of glad and farms.

911
00:44:55.280 --> 00:44:57.639
Right, Yeah, there's no sales out there.

912
00:44:58.039 --> 00:45:00.440
Yeah, it could have no not even any sales at

913
00:45:00.440 --> 00:45:01.800
this point, right because it's all brand new.

914
00:45:02.159 --> 00:45:03.599
Well, no half the homes have been there for like

915
00:45:03.679 --> 00:45:06.360
fifteen years. This cell it's I don't know that that

916
00:45:06.400 --> 00:45:08.880
area seems to not really have too many cells.

917
00:45:08.760 --> 00:45:10.519
But as you drive around too soon you can see them.

918
00:45:10.760 --> 00:45:13.199
Yeah, more for sales. And then somehow I got on

919
00:45:13.239 --> 00:45:16.360
a Zillow like email list. I don't really know how,

920
00:45:16.400 --> 00:45:19.840
but what I've seen is that it keep getting price

921
00:45:19.840 --> 00:45:22.079
cuts on different houses. I keep getting emails about price

922
00:45:22.119 --> 00:45:24.719
cuts from anywhere from five to fifty grand.

923
00:45:24.920 --> 00:45:27.360
Yeah, I've told you Michael was gone from five eighty

924
00:45:27.400 --> 00:45:30.119
to four fifty and he actually had a three seventy

925
00:45:30.119 --> 00:45:32.679
five offer from one of these guys that comes down TV.

926
00:45:32.960 --> 00:45:34.880
I'll buy your home, no matter what shape it's in,

927
00:45:34.960 --> 00:45:37.559
you know, And that's what they're trying to do. And

928
00:45:37.360 --> 00:45:40.960
there's nothing wrong with that if you're desperate, but she's

929
00:45:41.000 --> 00:45:45.639
not quite that desperate. Next week, one really economic number

930
00:45:45.679 --> 00:45:48.840
of note, which is the government's jobs report on next Friday.

931
00:45:50.199 --> 00:45:53.480
China actually had a little bit of an uptick this

932
00:45:53.519 --> 00:45:59.400
week after seven consecutive weeks lower oil opped up to

933
00:45:59.440 --> 00:46:03.000
seventy one bucks a week ago, back down at the

934
00:46:03.079 --> 00:46:05.719
sixty eight and a half this week. And again that's

935
00:46:05.920 --> 00:46:07.960
I think a lot of that's based upon China, and

936
00:46:08.000 --> 00:46:09.599
I think you could make a case being it a

937
00:46:09.639 --> 00:46:13.159
lot that's based upon the Trump administration probably opening that

938
00:46:13.480 --> 00:46:15.480
up a little bit more. Sure it is a little

939
00:46:15.519 --> 00:46:16.239
bit more supplied.

940
00:46:16.679 --> 00:46:19.639
I wouldn't not be surprised to see oil down in

941
00:46:19.719 --> 00:46:21.280
about forty five to fifty rangels.

942
00:46:21.280 --> 00:46:21.960
Oh really that low?

943
00:46:22.280 --> 00:46:24.280
And the reason is is that I don't think the

944
00:46:24.320 --> 00:46:27.760
Middle East is going to adhere to their price cuts.

945
00:46:28.519 --> 00:46:30.639
Agree They're going to say, screw this, we're going to

946
00:46:30.679 --> 00:46:32.519
put it out there. Why is the US able to

947
00:46:32.519 --> 00:46:34.559
put it out there? We're not going to do this,

948
00:46:34.800 --> 00:46:36.760
and it's going to open up the supply.

949
00:46:36.840 --> 00:46:38.599
In a while since I've thought about this number, but

950
00:46:38.639 --> 00:46:41.559
I think the break even on producing it to somewhere

951
00:46:41.559 --> 00:46:42.480
in the low fifties.

952
00:46:43.320 --> 00:46:46.840
It depends. It depends crackings lower. Yeah, that's true, you know,

953
00:46:47.719 --> 00:46:50.519
it depends. I thought it was more in the thirties

954
00:46:50.880 --> 00:46:53.639
that they can make money in their homework. First, I

955
00:46:53.679 --> 00:46:55.679
think it depends who it is too, and if they

956
00:46:55.760 --> 00:46:57.840
already established the Wales, so you're putting in a new

957
00:46:57.840 --> 00:47:01.280
well and all the other expenses i'ming off shore. How

958
00:47:01.320 --> 00:47:03.400
dirty is the oil? You know, there's a lot of

959
00:47:03.440 --> 00:47:04.119
different things.

960
00:47:04.519 --> 00:47:07.119
But what we're also seeing is other energy sources like

961
00:47:07.239 --> 00:47:11.119
nuclear continue to get bids because of that's gonna that

962
00:47:11.199 --> 00:47:14.079
space is needed to carry out. Oil can't be the only.

963
00:47:13.960 --> 00:47:16.960
No, we have to have alternative energy to be able

964
00:47:17.000 --> 00:47:20.360
to generate the energy needed for AI.

965
00:47:21.280 --> 00:47:22.599
Yeah, it's got to be a keep up.

966
00:47:22.599 --> 00:47:25.639
When we can be more acceptable towards nuclear, we think that's.

967
00:47:25.880 --> 00:47:27.360
We're coming up to the hard break. I want to

968
00:47:27.360 --> 00:47:29.679
thank everybody for listening being part of what we do.

969
00:47:29.920 --> 00:47:33.199
Whether it's watching TV, listen to the radio, Saturday, Sunday,

970
00:47:33.239 --> 00:47:35.159
you name it, we're here for you. Give us a

971
00:47:35.159 --> 00:47:37.599
call if you need a help. We'll be back right

972
00:47:37.639 --> 00:47:41.800
after this short break, and I hope everyone's having a

973
00:47:41.800 --> 00:47:42.519
great Thanksgiving.

974
00:47:44.320 --> 00:47:46.920
Welcome back to the second hour of the Money Matter Show.

975
00:47:46.960 --> 00:47:50.280
This is the Thanksgiving edition. Talked a lot about food

976
00:47:50.599 --> 00:47:52.840
in the first hour. For those of you just tuning in,

977
00:47:53.039 --> 00:47:55.159
the Dow is up one point four percent last week,

978
00:47:55.320 --> 00:47:57.320
the S and P five hundred was up one point one,

979
00:47:57.920 --> 00:48:00.119
the NASDAC was up one point one as well, and

980
00:48:00.159 --> 00:48:02.280
the Wrustle two thousand was up one point three percent.

981
00:48:02.519 --> 00:48:04.719
And then the equal weighted S and P five hundred

982
00:48:05.039 --> 00:48:07.000
was up one point one percent, so the SMP and

983
00:48:07.039 --> 00:48:10.239
the equal weighted were up the same. It never really happened.

984
00:48:10.480 --> 00:48:13.239
Usually it's been close, but it's never been the exact

985
00:48:13.239 --> 00:48:14.559
send that I've seen it.

986
00:48:14.760 --> 00:48:16.400
Don't slow down a little bit here, we could have

987
00:48:16.440 --> 00:48:17.760
one of the best years in history.

988
00:48:17.960 --> 00:48:18.119
I know.

989
00:48:18.239 --> 00:48:20.639
I have an interesting question to pose. So remember when

990
00:48:20.679 --> 00:48:22.960
we were at fifty six hundred and we thought the

991
00:48:23.000 --> 00:48:26.239
market was gonna go you know, that's kind of where

992
00:48:26.239 --> 00:48:29.599
we started putting on the protection, right yep. Since then

993
00:48:29.599 --> 00:48:32.519
because we thought there wasn't much money in the system

994
00:48:32.559 --> 00:48:34.440
at that time, there's not much money left to be

995
00:48:34.599 --> 00:48:37.320
bought to push the markets higher. Since then, the market

996
00:48:37.440 --> 00:48:40.920
is obviously pushed higher to above six thousand. But also

997
00:48:41.039 --> 00:48:45.719
what's interesting is an entire news space, the bitcoin world,

998
00:48:45.760 --> 00:48:48.559
the crypto world has gone absolutely crazy during that same

999
00:48:48.880 --> 00:48:51.079
run where the SMP has gone from fifty six to

1000
00:48:51.159 --> 00:48:53.480
six thousand. So not only was there new money to

1001
00:48:53.519 --> 00:48:56.840
push the equity markets to new all time highs, there's

1002
00:48:56.840 --> 00:48:59.960
also a lot of money to push this crypto world

1003
00:49:00.079 --> 00:49:02.719
to new all time hus So where do you think

1004
00:49:02.960 --> 00:49:04.960
all this extra money has come from?

1005
00:49:05.159 --> 00:49:08.039
Money market funds? I mean the money market funds for

1006
00:49:08.079 --> 00:49:10.480
the first time in years just paying what always used

1007
00:49:10.480 --> 00:49:13.079
to be just given five percent. You can always get

1008
00:49:13.119 --> 00:49:14.880
five percent of money market fund if you didn't mind

1009
00:49:14.880 --> 00:49:18.039
do anything else. But here we are back there, you know,

1010
00:49:18.239 --> 00:49:20.880
or here we were back there, and that's starting to

1011
00:49:21.679 --> 00:49:24.000
drift lower now as interest rates come down and most

1012
00:49:24.039 --> 00:49:25.760
of the money market funds are down around four and

1013
00:49:25.800 --> 00:49:28.599
a half now from a high of five and a quarter.

1014
00:49:29.039 --> 00:49:32.320
There's still around a trillion dollars a money market. Yeah,

1015
00:49:32.719 --> 00:49:35.039
there's a lot of money still sitting on the sidelines,

1016
00:49:35.880 --> 00:49:38.880
but there's still you know, all this increase. Potentially it

1017
00:49:39.000 --> 00:49:42.280
was the central banks around the world have started at

1018
00:49:42.320 --> 00:49:45.639
lower rates in the last five six months, right, and

1019
00:49:45.719 --> 00:49:48.880
so does that Has that been where the extra liquidity

1020
00:49:48.880 --> 00:49:52.280
has come from? Potentially, But there's been a lot of

1021
00:49:52.320 --> 00:49:55.960
extra money and sometimes what you've seen in this debt

1022
00:49:57.159 --> 00:49:59.840
denominated world that we live in. The higher and higher

1023
00:50:00.079 --> 00:50:03.280
set prices go, it can fund itself higher and higher

1024
00:50:03.320 --> 00:50:06.000
because then you can loan against your values of your

1025
00:50:06.000 --> 00:50:09.360
assets with more money. And the higher and higher it goes,

1026
00:50:09.360 --> 00:50:10.800
the more money you can loan out, and then you

1027
00:50:10.800 --> 00:50:13.320
can use that money to buy that same asset. It's

1028
00:50:13.360 --> 00:50:17.440
a reinforcing feedback loop and that helps push these markets

1029
00:50:17.800 --> 00:50:21.119
to levels that come sometimes feel frothy. And that's where

1030
00:50:21.119 --> 00:50:23.480
I think we're at this point where this market can

1031
00:50:23.519 --> 00:50:25.880
get unwound very quickly. And that's what we saw in

1032
00:50:26.039 --> 00:50:31.000
early August with the yen carry trade and a couple

1033
00:50:31.000 --> 00:50:34.360
of days we were down like five percent. Because when

1034
00:50:34.360 --> 00:50:36.519
you have a world that is all on that debt

1035
00:50:36.800 --> 00:50:39.960
and that collateral based system, the minute the collateral goes

1036
00:50:39.960 --> 00:50:42.400
down in value, that all those trades have to unwind.

1037
00:50:42.440 --> 00:50:44.320
It can go very quickly. So it's not a surprise

1038
00:50:44.360 --> 00:50:45.960
if all of a sudden we get a five to

1039
00:50:46.000 --> 00:50:49.840
ten percent pullback without really a big actually event or

1040
00:50:50.239 --> 00:50:54.719
unforeseen you know, black swan type of event. It could

1041
00:50:54.719 --> 00:50:57.480
really just be that one stock reports bad or one

1042
00:50:57.519 --> 00:51:01.119
stock has a bad news event that happens, and then

1043
00:51:01.119 --> 00:51:03.360
all of a sudden, that leads to a five ten

1044
00:51:03.360 --> 00:51:05.119
percent pullback in the general market.

1045
00:51:05.559 --> 00:51:07.760
It's gonna be interesting to watch bitcoin. I just can't

1046
00:51:07.800 --> 00:51:09.800
even imagine where it's going to go. So I had

1047
00:51:09.880 --> 00:51:12.840
an analysty the other day said that it's a real deal,

1048
00:51:12.880 --> 00:51:15.800
you'd better get on board. And I had another analyst

1049
00:51:15.840 --> 00:51:19.719
say it's the biggest bubble in history. It's just amazing

1050
00:51:19.760 --> 00:51:23.719
to watch this coin that you could have bought for

1051
00:51:23.760 --> 00:51:29.000
ten bucks a decade ago is now approaching one hundred

1052
00:51:29.039 --> 00:51:33.639
thousand dollars per coin and it and tod do you

1053
00:51:33.639 --> 00:51:35.119
know how volatile it is? It went up to what

1054
00:51:35.239 --> 00:51:39.000
ninety eight three or ninety nine eight, ninety nine eight,

1055
00:51:39.599 --> 00:51:42.119
then dropped back to around ninety thousand, I mean ten

1056
00:51:42.159 --> 00:51:45.360
percent drop in just a matter of ten days, and

1057
00:51:45.400 --> 00:51:47.800
now here it is back to the ninety nine thousand again.

1058
00:51:47.920 --> 00:51:51.400
It's so volatile, and I don't have any kind of

1059
00:51:51.440 --> 00:51:54.119
feel for it. There are no earnings, there's no ceo,

1060
00:51:54.760 --> 00:51:56.599
there's no sales, there's no product.

1061
00:51:56.719 --> 00:51:59.079
I mean no, it's it lives on supplying demand.

1062
00:51:59.199 --> 00:52:00.760
It's just supplying one million.

1063
00:52:00.960 --> 00:52:03.800
There's twenty one million units of it, and what is

1064
00:52:03.800 --> 00:52:08.000
it denominated against? A currency that continues to get printed.

1065
00:52:08.480 --> 00:52:10.360
And the one thing that I will say is that

1066
00:52:10.400 --> 00:52:14.480
I'm watching it. It's like the Nasdaq on steroids. If

1067
00:52:14.480 --> 00:52:16.760
the market were to correct five percent, bitcoin to be

1068
00:52:16.800 --> 00:52:21.480
down twenty percent, market keeps going, Bitcoin'll keep going. That's

1069
00:52:21.599 --> 00:52:22.280
that's my gut.

1070
00:52:22.360 --> 00:52:24.679
And also that's why equities always go up in value

1071
00:52:24.679 --> 00:52:29.840
because they're assets, right, Earnings are given, they're they're tangible,

1072
00:52:29.840 --> 00:52:32.519
they're actually real, they're they're coming in the door, right,

1073
00:52:32.840 --> 00:52:35.840
And so why do these things always go up in

1074
00:52:35.920 --> 00:52:38.639
value over time because it's denominated against the dollar, which

1075
00:52:38.679 --> 00:52:42.039
they're keep printing, and the dollar is getting less and

1076
00:52:42.119 --> 00:52:45.519
less valuable compared to the asset that is the NASDAK

1077
00:52:45.639 --> 00:52:46.039
or the.

1078
00:52:45.920 --> 00:52:46.239
S and P.

1079
00:52:46.840 --> 00:52:50.280
I would argue that it's not just the growth of

1080
00:52:50.320 --> 00:52:50.920
the companies.

1081
00:52:51.039 --> 00:52:53.280
Yeah, but I would argue that that the market is

1082
00:52:53.280 --> 00:52:55.960
always going to go over time, go higher over time

1083
00:52:56.519 --> 00:52:59.960
because it's a measure of GDP, and GDP is based

1084
00:53:00.079 --> 00:53:02.079
upon the number of people you have in the country.

1085
00:53:02.239 --> 00:53:03.880
As long as you have more and more people in

1086
00:53:03.880 --> 00:53:06.159
the country, the GDP is going to go higher and

1087
00:53:06.199 --> 00:53:07.239
the market's going to follow.

1088
00:53:07.559 --> 00:53:10.760
Yes, But when GDP is denominated in the currency that

1089
00:53:10.880 --> 00:53:14.800
keeps getting printed, you start to get nominal figures that

1090
00:53:14.840 --> 00:53:15.719
don't mean anything.

1091
00:53:16.800 --> 00:53:20.960
You put more credibility on, you put make currency more

1092
00:53:20.960 --> 00:53:23.199
of a factor than I would. But yeah, we'll agree

1093
00:53:23.199 --> 00:53:23.719
to disagree.

1094
00:53:23.760 --> 00:53:25.920
There's more there's no earnings in bitcoin. But there is

1095
00:53:25.960 --> 00:53:28.360
an argument to be made for the adoption, the widespread

1096
00:53:28.400 --> 00:53:31.360
adoption that's been happening across the globe of this asset.

1097
00:53:31.599 --> 00:53:34.679
Right, where can you use bitcoin commercially?

1098
00:53:35.480 --> 00:53:37.079
You could buy a Ferrari with it, you'd buy a

1099
00:53:37.079 --> 00:53:37.559
Porsche with it.

1100
00:53:37.599 --> 00:53:39.639
A couple of there's a couple of the rights. There's

1101
00:53:39.639 --> 00:53:41.599
a couple of those who have done that as a promotional.

1102
00:53:41.760 --> 00:53:44.239
NFL players get paid in bitcoin, now.

1103
00:53:44.400 --> 00:53:44.760
Do they?

1104
00:53:44.880 --> 00:53:47.960
They can't know, they don't. They don't automatically they get

1105
00:53:48.000 --> 00:53:49.599
the choice. They had a choice for the last couple

1106
00:53:49.639 --> 00:53:52.400
of years. They had a tackle for Carolina that was

1107
00:53:52.400 --> 00:53:53.639
the first guy to do it. He got half his

1108
00:53:53.719 --> 00:53:57.159
big half his new salary in bitcoin, and it like

1109
00:53:57.239 --> 00:53:59.079
right after that had dropped and everybody thought he's dumb.

1110
00:53:59.159 --> 00:54:01.840
And now he's there's been no reports on him lately.

1111
00:54:01.880 --> 00:54:06.079
But Saquon Barkley put his twenty twenty endorsement deals into bitcoin.

1112
00:54:06.119 --> 00:54:07.440
It was like ten million dollars.

1113
00:54:07.440 --> 00:54:09.519
Odell Beckham did the same thing around that time too.

1114
00:54:09.760 --> 00:54:13.480
Take his whole found money. Why not, right, Yeah.

1115
00:54:13.239 --> 00:54:16.320
Those guys that like this fourth contract salary that some

1116
00:54:16.360 --> 00:54:18.039
of these guys gets like Okay, we'll put.

1117
00:54:17.880 --> 00:54:19.440
In bitcoin, well Monday, they don't need it.

1118
00:54:19.480 --> 00:54:22.960
This is yeah, but it's paying off right now for him.

1119
00:54:23.079 --> 00:54:25.760
Yeah, it's kind of like a Otani from the Dodgers, right,

1120
00:54:25.800 --> 00:54:27.639
I mean, if he could take half a salary bitcoin

1121
00:54:27.679 --> 00:54:31.000
to lose it all, it wouldn't matter. Undred million dollars

1122
00:54:31.000 --> 00:54:31.559
for gonna sake.

1123
00:54:31.639 --> 00:54:33.440
Yeah, but he deferred all that for ten years, so

1124
00:54:33.440 --> 00:54:35.079
he's only getting paid two milli year right now.

1125
00:54:35.159 --> 00:54:36.719
Poor guy. It must be struggling.

1126
00:54:36.920 --> 00:54:39.760
Probably. I feel bou getting paid sixty million in endorsements.

1127
00:54:40.559 --> 00:54:42.719
Volatility of gold, what's going on there? Todd?

1128
00:54:43.159 --> 00:54:45.719
Well, I mean that that thing has gone up for

1129
00:54:46.239 --> 00:54:49.599
a very long time. I mean, what did it close

1130
00:54:49.639 --> 00:54:50.480
the week at.

1131
00:54:50.960 --> 00:54:54.000
It was only down twenty six to sixty, down about

1132
00:54:54.000 --> 00:54:54.679
fifty bucks.

1133
00:54:54.760 --> 00:54:56.960
Yeah, I mean that was a not a huge week.

1134
00:54:57.039 --> 00:55:00.239
Since now that it's so high. You know, Ffy drop crazy.

1135
00:55:00.320 --> 00:55:02.599
One hundred bucks two weeks ago and then rallied one

1136
00:55:02.679 --> 00:55:05.440
hundred and forty bucks higher, right a week ago?

1137
00:55:05.519 --> 00:55:08.519
What did it drop off of? Was it the Putin news?

1138
00:55:08.960 --> 00:55:11.559
Well, if you remember, that's the week when bigcoin really

1139
00:55:11.599 --> 00:55:12.639
started to go crazy.

1140
00:55:12.880 --> 00:55:13.800
So that's true.

1141
00:55:13.920 --> 00:55:17.480
It's potentially that people were just like, Okay, well I.

1142
00:55:17.480 --> 00:55:19.239
Might I'm tired of this whole stuff.

1143
00:55:19.320 --> 00:55:22.360
You know, gold's up twelve percent over the last six months,

1144
00:55:22.360 --> 00:55:23.880
but twelve percent today.

1145
00:55:24.480 --> 00:55:29.800
Shiny scientists found a gold like the positive cave through

1146
00:55:29.840 --> 00:55:31.880
however they do things over in one of their providences.

1147
00:55:32.039 --> 00:55:35.039
It's worth up to one hundred billion dollars if they

1148
00:55:35.039 --> 00:55:39.039
can mine it, which would make China the largest producer

1149
00:55:39.079 --> 00:55:40.679
or whatever of gold if they can do it.

1150
00:55:40.800 --> 00:55:41.000
Wow.

1151
00:55:41.719 --> 00:55:44.119
So that was last week, that was recently.

1152
00:55:44.280 --> 00:55:45.719
Yeah, I don't know.

1153
00:55:45.679 --> 00:55:46.800
If that I had anything to do with it, but

1154
00:55:46.800 --> 00:55:48.000
it's just no, it was fashioning.

1155
00:55:48.480 --> 00:55:49.800
Oh boy, there's a lot of supplies.

1156
00:55:50.039 --> 00:55:52.840
China's like, oh, we could become the highest of gold.

1157
00:55:53.400 --> 00:55:55.400
But you know, gold is a huge market. It's thirteen

1158
00:55:55.440 --> 00:55:58.119
trillion dollars, so one hundred billion dollars to move it

1159
00:55:58.119 --> 00:56:01.760
that much would be pretty cod. There's just definitely one of.

1160
00:56:01.760 --> 00:56:04.159
The psychologically, Yeah, I was just talking about goal without

1161
00:56:04.199 --> 00:56:05.599
and now China could be the leader in it.

1162
00:56:05.800 --> 00:56:08.079
If you're if you're reading about a new mind that

1163
00:56:08.199 --> 00:56:11.199
maybe the largest mine in history, the value of the

1164
00:56:11.199 --> 00:56:15.960
gold you have is essentially les, you would think maybe

1165
00:56:16.159 --> 00:56:18.320
maybe that accounted for the dip down. I didn't see

1166
00:56:18.360 --> 00:56:18.880
that article.

1167
00:56:19.280 --> 00:56:22.519
There's definitely a lot of more buyers wanting to protect

1168
00:56:22.639 --> 00:56:23.920
their assets from inflation.

1169
00:56:24.280 --> 00:56:26.719
So that's it's just it's just going to be interesting

1170
00:56:26.719 --> 00:56:28.920
to watch bitcoin again, be careful out there, people, This

1171
00:56:29.000 --> 00:56:32.280
is legalized gambling bitcoin. I mean, there's no fundamentals to it.

1172
00:56:33.159 --> 00:56:35.480
I one nd percent disagree when you said there's no

1173
00:56:35.519 --> 00:56:36.519
fundamentals to bitcoin.

1174
00:56:36.639 --> 00:56:38.519
No, what is the fundamental then?

1175
00:56:38.760 --> 00:56:41.199
Supply and demand based on the cost of energy.

1176
00:56:42.280 --> 00:56:44.519
Supply and demand based on the cost of it.

1177
00:56:44.639 --> 00:56:47.280
There's twenty one million bitcoin. Each bitcoin can only be

1178
00:56:47.280 --> 00:56:49.599
produced based on the cost that it did to mine it.

1179
00:56:49.840 --> 00:56:51.559
Well, what makes a bitcoin worth a penny?

1180
00:56:51.960 --> 00:56:54.639
The energy you have to just willing to pay it. No,

1181
00:56:54.800 --> 00:56:58.039
the energy you had to pay to mine the first bitcoin.

1182
00:56:59.000 --> 00:57:00.639
I think that's irrelevant.

1183
00:57:00.840 --> 00:57:03.000
Well, no, that's your opinion.

1184
00:57:03.079 --> 00:57:04.079
Absolutely, it's my opinion.

1185
00:57:04.159 --> 00:57:06.960
Yeah, but you actually have to pay money to produce something.

1186
00:57:07.039 --> 00:57:08.360
There is intrinsic value to do.

1187
00:57:08.440 --> 00:57:10.480
I have to pay one hundred dollars to produce something

1188
00:57:10.519 --> 00:57:13.039
and I can only sell for fifty dollars. That's my problem.

1189
00:57:13.239 --> 00:57:14.719
That's it's not all of a sudden it's going to

1190
00:57:14.760 --> 00:57:16.239
be worth one hundred and twenty five could it cost me?

1191
00:57:16.320 --> 00:57:18.320
Why does bitcoin keep going up in value because more

1192
00:57:18.360 --> 00:57:20.440
and more people trust it? Why did the dollar keep

1193
00:57:20.480 --> 00:57:22.440
going down in value over time?

1194
00:57:22.840 --> 00:57:24.760
But the dollar doesn't go down in value over time.

1195
00:57:24.800 --> 00:57:26.920
It's been going straight up and hit a what three.

1196
00:57:26.800 --> 00:57:29.239
Year high, two year high compared to what it was

1197
00:57:29.280 --> 00:57:31.800
two years ago. Look over time, if you look at

1198
00:57:31.800 --> 00:57:33.920
an asset, what does a dollar get you compared to

1199
00:57:34.000 --> 00:57:36.960
what it did fifty years ago? Not as much, right,

1200
00:57:37.000 --> 00:57:39.760
because the assets keep going up in value versus the dollar.

1201
00:57:40.760 --> 00:57:44.440
And that's what it's saying. I'm going to be interested

1202
00:57:44.480 --> 00:57:47.519
to watch. Bitcoin is worth somewhere between nothing and a

1203
00:57:47.599 --> 00:57:48.199
million dollars.

1204
00:57:48.320 --> 00:57:51.360
Remember when we were joking about the price of gold

1205
00:57:51.400 --> 00:57:54.840
going up because of the accessibility upon like, well at

1206
00:57:54.880 --> 00:57:57.119
since Costo's selling it, Well, I wonder if like the

1207
00:57:57.119 --> 00:58:02.639
accessibility of you know, buying though helps the price of bitcoin,

1208
00:58:02.679 --> 00:58:05.880
which obviously it does, and it's only easier now in

1209
00:58:05.920 --> 00:58:08.320
today's world. You know, I could buy bitcoin right now

1210
00:58:08.360 --> 00:58:09.039
in two seconds.

1211
00:58:09.239 --> 00:58:11.119
It's a big part of it that the ETFs.

1212
00:58:11.280 --> 00:58:14.360
You think the ets over a million bitcoin? Yeah, I

1213
00:58:14.360 --> 00:58:16.679
think there's only twenty one million that are ever going

1214
00:58:16.719 --> 00:58:17.280
to be out there.

1215
00:58:17.320 --> 00:58:20.559
Yeah. I don't know what the trust factor is on bitcoin.

1216
00:58:20.559 --> 00:58:22.320
The last I looked, it was twelve percent of the

1217
00:58:22.400 --> 00:58:23.960
population trust bitcoin.

1218
00:58:24.079 --> 00:58:25.679
Yeah, but who's going to fill out that survey.

1219
00:58:25.760 --> 00:58:28.239
I don't know, I don't know what you.

1220
00:58:28.559 --> 00:58:31.960
Have survey bias in there? And well, what way, because

1221
00:58:31.960 --> 00:58:35.239
who's filling out that survey that you're really on your

1222
00:58:35.280 --> 00:58:36.199
evidence to call.

1223
00:58:36.679 --> 00:58:39.039
What we do with typically in a study like that

1224
00:58:39.199 --> 00:58:41.480
is you would you would pull X number of people,

1225
00:58:41.960 --> 00:58:45.119
right survey? You are you comfortable with bitcoin? I don't

1226
00:58:45.119 --> 00:58:45.639
know what it is.

1227
00:58:45.639 --> 00:58:47.880
Who are you asking? Though? That's called volunteer.

1228
00:58:48.559 --> 00:58:50.719
It has to be random, you can't. It has to

1229
00:58:50.760 --> 00:58:51.519
be random.

1230
00:58:52.119 --> 00:58:53.440
So you're asking eight year old?

1231
00:58:53.760 --> 00:58:54.719
No, no, no, no, you're a.

1232
00:58:54.960 --> 00:58:57.519
There's no random. You have parameters of who you actually

1233
00:58:57.519 --> 00:58:58.039
you're asking.

1234
00:58:58.079 --> 00:59:01.599
No, you're you're not you're asking adults. But it's irrelevant,

1235
00:59:01.679 --> 00:59:04.920
it's irrelem. We'll see. It's gonna be fun. There's gonna

1236
00:59:04.920 --> 00:59:06.119
be a lot of people getting rich and a lot

1237
00:59:06.159 --> 00:59:08.840
of people going broke on bitcoins. So we'll see how

1238
00:59:08.840 --> 00:59:13.679
it happens in video. Kind of an interesting it's one

1239
00:59:13.719 --> 00:59:18.039
of the more interesting UH investments with actually has fundamental

1240
00:59:18.119 --> 00:59:23.159
value over the last two or three years, and as

1241
00:59:23.199 --> 00:59:25.679
one of the most talked about stocks. It hit a

1242
00:59:25.679 --> 00:59:28.039
new all time high after their earnings report on the

1243
00:59:28.079 --> 00:59:31.280
twenty first, but Sin Sin's dropped about ten percent. What

1244
00:59:31.320 --> 00:59:33.320
are your thoughts doing on in Vidia.

1245
00:59:34.239 --> 00:59:37.360
I mean, they're still the leader, they're still selling those chips,

1246
00:59:37.400 --> 00:59:40.400
so it could be overborrowing now. But I mean, I

1247
00:59:40.400 --> 00:59:41.920
don't know if it's gonna get back to one fifty

1248
00:59:41.920 --> 00:59:44.360
anytime soon, if we see a market as a whole drop.

1249
00:59:44.440 --> 00:59:48.519
But my concern, my concern with Nvidia is they have

1250
00:59:48.719 --> 00:59:53.719
demand that is off the charts. The demand is simply unlimited.

1251
00:59:54.039 --> 00:59:57.239
They can sell every single chip that they can produce.

1252
00:59:58.079 --> 00:59:59.920
I don't know how they do better than that.

1253
01:00:00.079 --> 01:00:01.800
I think at some point a competitor just.

1254
01:00:01.760 --> 01:00:05.039
Standing they have to keep staying ahead with like their

1255
01:00:05.039 --> 01:00:08.400
Blackwell chip is ahead, they're a year ahead of everybody else. Sure,

1256
01:00:08.480 --> 01:00:10.599
if they don't do that, then they're going to start

1257
01:00:10.639 --> 01:00:12.800
pulling back. But they keep staying a year ahead and

1258
01:00:12.840 --> 01:00:15.960
that much more advanced, then there's no they're not going

1259
01:00:16.000 --> 01:00:17.239
to slow down anytime soon.

1260
01:00:17.119 --> 01:00:19.000
I guess. But again, what I'm saying is, if you

1261
01:00:19.039 --> 01:00:23.000
can sell every single thing you can manufacture, how do

1262
01:00:23.039 --> 01:00:23.840
you do better than that?

1263
01:00:23.920 --> 01:00:25.599
You expand, you sell more, but you.

1264
01:00:25.559 --> 01:00:28.559
Can't know facause that's that you're talking about multi year

1265
01:00:28.800 --> 01:00:32.039
billions of dollars to expand. That's the way that that's

1266
01:00:32.079 --> 01:00:35.679
down two, three, four years. You know what about it's

1267
01:00:35.679 --> 01:00:37.679
all part I mean, it's all forecast and stuff. That's

1268
01:00:37.719 --> 01:00:38.360
what people want to say.

1269
01:00:38.360 --> 01:00:40.199
They're trading at fifty six times any.

1270
01:00:40.159 --> 01:00:42.079
Yeah, it's not even that expensive obviously.

1271
01:00:41.920 --> 01:00:43.960
Stocking future growth, so it doesn't either.

1272
01:00:44.000 --> 01:00:45.920
But it's all about the future and their expectations and

1273
01:00:45.920 --> 01:00:47.840
their guidance because I mean, yeah, like you're saying, they

1274
01:00:47.840 --> 01:00:50.440
sell everything they make, so what are investors looking at.

1275
01:00:50.480 --> 01:00:52.920
They're looking at what their future could hold. Are they

1276
01:00:52.920 --> 01:00:54.800
going to continue to expand? Are their goals will still

1277
01:00:54.800 --> 01:00:55.639
be that far ahead?

1278
01:00:55.920 --> 01:00:58.639
The most valuable company in the world. Yeah, And I'm

1279
01:00:58.639 --> 01:01:00.639
thinking myself, if I could have any company in the

1280
01:01:00.639 --> 01:01:02.519
world to own, it wouldn't be in video.

1281
01:01:03.800 --> 01:01:04.760
I agree with you there.

1282
01:01:05.039 --> 01:01:07.519
I think we all agreed. It's probably Apple. Huh, what

1283
01:01:07.599 --> 01:01:09.320
do you think which company would you own if you

1284
01:01:09.320 --> 01:01:11.679
could own any company in the world, just companies. Yeah,

1285
01:01:11.679 --> 01:01:21.599
you're gonna own the company micro Strategy now whatever, maybe.

1286
01:01:21.360 --> 01:01:24.159
Amazon, Amazon's the big one.

1287
01:01:24.800 --> 01:01:27.119
If you guys had to guess what AMD's performance year

1288
01:01:27.159 --> 01:01:30.239
to date was AMDMD.

1289
01:01:29.519 --> 01:01:32.079
And that's their competitor. It used to be this poor

1290
01:01:32.119 --> 01:01:35.960
step child to Intel, that's been down to one eighty. Obviously,

1291
01:01:36.920 --> 01:01:42.719
am d's year to date probably up ten, what down?

1292
01:01:42.800 --> 01:01:43.559
Four down?

1293
01:01:43.639 --> 01:01:44.400
Five down?

1294
01:01:45.639 --> 01:01:48.079
Yeah, one of the largest chip makers, and.

1295
01:01:48.159 --> 01:01:50.280
That that was said to be like the biggest competitor

1296
01:01:50.440 --> 01:01:51.760
to the like in Vidio's Black Will.

1297
01:01:52.119 --> 01:01:55.159
Yeah, but they're having struggles being able to produce their demand,

1298
01:01:55.639 --> 01:01:56.440
that's what they're.

1299
01:01:56.239 --> 01:01:58.360
Not only that, but the price earnings there issue, right,

1300
01:01:58.559 --> 01:02:00.039
we were we showing that up.

1301
01:02:00.559 --> 01:02:05.199
The trailings at one twenty eight compared to videos fifty fifties. Yeah,

1302
01:02:05.280 --> 01:02:08.880
so it's you're you're paying two x more than two xx.

1303
01:02:08.840 --> 01:02:12.320
Yeah, compared to video's proof of concept. That's happened. It's happening.

1304
01:02:13.000 --> 01:02:15.000
Video is still the leader, and you like, I mean,

1305
01:02:15.039 --> 01:02:16.719
if you have a pullback for it, you want to buy.

1306
01:02:16.760 --> 01:02:18.800
It's pretty crazy that AMD can get cut in half

1307
01:02:18.840 --> 01:02:21.719
and it would then be priced the same value that

1308
01:02:21.800 --> 01:02:22.559
the video is out.

1309
01:02:22.400 --> 01:02:24.440
Of It's much. The most amazing probably that whole thing

1310
01:02:24.480 --> 01:02:26.320
is that the CEO of n Video and the CEO

1311
01:02:26.360 --> 01:02:28.199
of AMD are related.

1312
01:02:28.280 --> 01:02:30.519
The first cousins cousins, right, our cousins.

1313
01:02:30.559 --> 01:02:32.920
Oh my god, what are the odds? Talk about an

1314
01:02:32.920 --> 01:02:33.840
overachieving family?

1315
01:02:33.920 --> 01:02:34.039
Right?

1316
01:02:34.039 --> 01:02:37.400
How can go to Thanksgiving? Dinner with them. Wow, what

1317
01:02:37.440 --> 01:02:42.280
are you doing? You did well? Not much apparently, first

1318
01:02:42.320 --> 01:02:45.199
of what you guys are doing. Apple slumped on Wednesday

1319
01:02:45.199 --> 01:02:49.440
after the Chinese government reported, get this, sales of foreign

1320
01:02:49.519 --> 01:02:53.920
branded smartphones in China fell forty four percent year over

1321
01:02:54.000 --> 01:02:57.280
year in October. Because that's what they've been trying to do.

1322
01:02:57.440 --> 01:03:00.199
Chinese has been trying to diminish the sale of on

1323
01:03:01.199 --> 01:03:06.039
cell phones to benefit their own companies there in China.

1324
01:03:06.679 --> 01:03:08.559
A couple of things problems I have with is number one,

1325
01:03:08.960 --> 01:03:13.960
it's been reported by the Chinese government. I just unlike

1326
01:03:14.000 --> 01:03:17.559
the trust people. I don't trust the Chinese government. So

1327
01:03:17.960 --> 01:03:20.960
you go to take that. I think as Apple turns

1328
01:03:21.000 --> 01:03:23.159
on more and more of the Apple intelligence and you

1329
01:03:23.199 --> 01:03:25.119
start to hear more and more people talk about it,

1330
01:03:25.199 --> 01:03:26.960
I think you're probably going to get a lot more

1331
01:03:27.119 --> 01:03:30.719
interest in the iPhone sixteen than we have now. And

1332
01:03:30.760 --> 01:03:36.039
it's interesting because despite all of the noise, Apple on

1333
01:03:36.119 --> 01:03:40.400
Friday hit an all time high, all time high, you know,

1334
01:03:40.480 --> 01:03:43.719
not up ten percent for the all time high. With

1335
01:03:43.880 --> 01:03:48.599
all of this noise. You are Microsoft on Wednesday, right

1336
01:03:48.599 --> 01:03:53.039
before Thanksgiving, Happy Thanksgiving. FTC is starting to broad base

1337
01:03:53.119 --> 01:03:57.000
DOWNI trust investigation into Microsoft, and they announced it the

1338
01:03:57.000 --> 01:04:02.800
Wednesday afternoon before Thanksgiving. Nice, very nice for uh and

1339
01:04:02.960 --> 01:04:07.760
I trust like okay. So the good news at the

1340
01:04:07.840 --> 01:04:12.639
FTC has been informally speaking to Microsoft's competitors who would

1341
01:04:12.679 --> 01:04:13.599
love to see them.

1342
01:04:13.960 --> 01:04:18.000
Like Google's last antitrust lawsuit was in regards to what Chrome,

1343
01:04:18.159 --> 01:04:18.760
so it was just one of.

1344
01:04:18.920 --> 01:04:21.239
Search, search, and numerous other things they want to you know,

1345
01:04:21.400 --> 01:04:24.679
same with the same with Microsoft. Microsoft has their tentacles

1346
01:04:24.719 --> 01:04:27.760
into so many different areas, you know, take a pic.

1347
01:04:28.039 --> 01:04:31.079
The good news is that the dark days for tech

1348
01:04:31.679 --> 01:04:36.639
with Commissioner Lena Kahan at the FTC seems to me,

1349
01:04:36.679 --> 01:04:39.239
I probably numbered, what do you think?

1350
01:04:39.800 --> 01:04:43.079
Yeah? And another thing that about the Treasury pick that

1351
01:04:43.320 --> 01:04:47.360
Trump put in. His business currently has some connections with tether,

1352
01:04:47.519 --> 01:04:52.760
which is the stable coin and that denominates the dollar directly.

1353
01:04:53.119 --> 01:04:56.639
So uh, there's definitely some deregulation for a lot of

1354
01:04:56.679 --> 01:04:59.760
industries by just the multitude of picks that Trump has

1355
01:04:59.800 --> 01:05:03.199
been putting out, and that deregulation has been brought to

1356
01:05:03.280 --> 01:05:05.519
the market as a good thing. That's why the market

1357
01:05:05.639 --> 01:05:08.880
keeps climbing higher, you know, and expectations for these things

1358
01:05:08.960 --> 01:05:11.599
to finally be actually brought to fruition.

1359
01:05:12.000 --> 01:05:14.159
Well, because we go back eight years ago and what's

1360
01:05:14.239 --> 01:05:17.760
what's the very first thing Trump did? He started throwing

1361
01:05:17.800 --> 01:05:21.239
out regulations, you know, and the horse got out of

1362
01:05:21.280 --> 01:05:23.320
the pen and was able to run, and boy could

1363
01:05:23.320 --> 01:05:28.199
it run. And when you take away all these shackles.

1364
01:05:28.840 --> 01:05:33.639
Some shackles are obviously necessary and important, but but there's

1365
01:05:33.679 --> 01:05:35.960
an awfully lot of frivolous shackles. Yeah.

1366
01:05:35.960 --> 01:05:37.519
But I also this goes back to the point that

1367
01:05:37.559 --> 01:05:40.320
the presidents don't impact too much because you would say, okay,

1368
01:05:40.400 --> 01:05:42.599
we let the horse out of the barn with Trump,

1369
01:05:42.639 --> 01:05:44.679
and then you get Biden come in twenty twenty one

1370
01:05:44.719 --> 01:05:47.559
and say, well, here come the shackles. Right, the market

1371
01:05:47.639 --> 01:05:49.559
is not going to be able to grow. But twenty

1372
01:05:49.559 --> 01:05:53.440
three and twenty four were what years really really great yea,

1373
01:05:53.599 --> 01:05:56.800
and it was with under Biden's presidency. So you can't

1374
01:05:56.840 --> 01:06:01.079
dictate your investment philosophy off one person in behind a desk.

1375
01:06:01.679 --> 01:06:04.440
It's got to be based on actual factors that are

1376
01:06:04.440 --> 01:06:06.159
going to move the market. Because you could have been

1377
01:06:06.159 --> 01:06:08.320
in cash this entire year and you missed out on

1378
01:06:08.320 --> 01:06:09.960
one of the best years of the market's ever seen.

1379
01:06:10.079 --> 01:06:11.719
We've had a couple of people of those type of

1380
01:06:11.719 --> 01:06:13.639
people come in scared about that.

1381
01:06:14.239 --> 01:06:17.440
So it just when you're risk toleant, you can also

1382
01:06:17.480 --> 01:06:19.400
be your risk tolerance can say you're somewhere and you

1383
01:06:19.639 --> 01:06:24.159
could be underinvested, and if you're underinvested for a political reason,

1384
01:06:24.239 --> 01:06:27.400
or then you're not putting your money where you know,

1385
01:06:27.480 --> 01:06:30.480
most people say, I care about making money, you know,

1386
01:06:30.559 --> 01:06:32.719
that's what's what I want to protect my money and

1387
01:06:32.719 --> 01:06:35.480
make money. That's what I care most about, especially when

1388
01:06:35.519 --> 01:06:38.719
it impacts your day to day. And so just because

1389
01:06:38.920 --> 01:06:41.320
when president gets in that isn't you don't agree with it,

1390
01:06:41.320 --> 01:06:43.679
doesn't mean that your investment philosophy should change. It should

1391
01:06:43.679 --> 01:06:46.119
be based on your goals and objectives and your risk tolerance.

1392
01:06:46.760 --> 01:06:48.519
And then if you want to have a money manager,

1393
01:06:48.519 --> 01:06:50.360
do it. Let the money manager work based on what

1394
01:06:50.440 --> 01:06:52.599
he's seeing. If you're going to do it based do

1395
01:06:52.639 --> 01:06:55.199
it based on what you're seeing in the environment, the economics,

1396
01:06:55.199 --> 01:06:58.159
the economic the earnings reports, things that actually move markets.

1397
01:06:58.719 --> 01:07:03.559
The long run of political presidential policies are very long

1398
01:07:03.599 --> 01:07:06.159
to actually see it come to fruition. Think about the

1399
01:07:06.159 --> 01:07:09.280
Inflation Reduction Act. We're barely seeing the spending and that

1400
01:07:09.400 --> 01:07:10.159
was like two years ago.

1401
01:07:10.320 --> 01:07:14.119
They've been terrible. They've been terrible. The Biden administration has

1402
01:07:14.159 --> 01:07:16.440
been terrible at administry.

1403
01:07:16.400 --> 01:07:18.719
And I'm sure they are, but if you look in

1404
01:07:18.760 --> 01:07:21.360
the history of policies, they don't move very fast in general.

1405
01:07:21.639 --> 01:07:25.400
But you're like, you know, right, how about the infrastructure bill?

1406
01:07:25.440 --> 01:07:28.800
I think it's fifteen percent allocated? Right, that was two

1407
01:07:28.920 --> 01:07:32.280
years ago? Right, Really, what are you doing?

1408
01:07:33.360 --> 01:07:35.559
And who knows? Maybe Trump says, you know, that's that's

1409
01:07:35.599 --> 01:07:38.880
an extra part of money that hasn't been spent. Let's

1410
01:07:38.880 --> 01:07:40.760
not spend it. You know, that's an easy way to

1411
01:07:40.800 --> 01:07:43.320
reduce stuff sit right there. Yeah, So, and you know,

1412
01:07:43.360 --> 01:07:46.639
if that doesn't happen, then some of those infrastructure trades

1413
01:07:46.679 --> 01:07:48.480
that have been brought up over the last six months

1414
01:07:48.519 --> 01:07:52.199
will obviously get unwound. But other than that, you know,

1415
01:07:52.199 --> 01:07:54.679
there's there's definitely gonna be a lot of increase for

1416
01:07:55.079 --> 01:07:57.000
different industries because of the deregulation.

1417
01:07:58.320 --> 01:08:00.519
And unless you're a short term trader, do now do

1418
01:08:00.639 --> 01:08:04.000
not be trading on Trump's every nomination.

1419
01:08:05.360 --> 01:08:07.079
Yeah, Well, that's what you said. You got to find

1420
01:08:07.119 --> 01:08:10.159
an advisor to go the long haul with and believe

1421
01:08:10.159 --> 01:08:11.199
in what you do. And that's why you got to

1422
01:08:11.239 --> 01:08:13.639
find somebody that you trust that'll be there for a

1423
01:08:13.639 --> 01:08:16.119
while with you, not just three years or four years

1424
01:08:16.199 --> 01:08:19.359
or based on one election. Do it for your financial

1425
01:08:19.399 --> 01:08:20.079
plan for the whole.

1426
01:08:20.000 --> 01:08:22.960
Long haul, right, And it's natural tendency when the market's

1427
01:08:23.000 --> 01:08:26.000
doing what it's doing now to get more in, wrong

1428
01:08:26.239 --> 01:08:29.640
wrong thing to do when the market's falling, to get out,

1429
01:08:29.880 --> 01:08:33.680
wrong thing to do. You have an investment strategy, you

1430
01:08:33.760 --> 01:08:37.920
have an investment profile, you have a temperament. Stick to that.

1431
01:08:38.319 --> 01:08:41.640
But right now, like the biggest thing is, okay, this

1432
01:08:41.680 --> 01:08:44.479
person gets in office. Doesn't mean you go all the cash,

1433
01:08:44.479 --> 01:08:46.279
and it doesn't mean you go all the equities either.

1434
01:08:47.199 --> 01:08:49.600
Well, no, if you're a balanced investor, you're sixty percent

1435
01:08:49.640 --> 01:08:51.920
equity forty percent fixed income, what you would be doing

1436
01:08:52.000 --> 01:08:55.560
right now is selling stock and buying bonds. That's what

1437
01:08:55.560 --> 01:08:56.439
you would be doing right now.

1438
01:08:56.439 --> 01:08:58.359
Even if you're a pro Trump person says hey, this

1439
01:08:58.439 --> 01:09:00.399
is going to go to the moon, it's like we're

1440
01:09:00.399 --> 01:09:01.319
already at the moon.

1441
01:09:01.439 --> 01:09:05.159
Sure we are at We've got the money on the

1442
01:09:06.159 --> 01:09:08.159
Where are we going next? And maybe it will? I mean,

1443
01:09:08.439 --> 01:09:11.479
who knows how far this could go? Because it is momentum.

1444
01:09:11.680 --> 01:09:15.279
There a momentum trade right now the fundamentals are are

1445
01:09:15.359 --> 01:09:16.600
have been left behind.

1446
01:09:17.479 --> 01:09:19.600
So I mean for us, we got a lot on

1447
01:09:19.600 --> 01:09:21.960
the side too. For in the money markets, just waiting

1448
01:09:21.960 --> 01:09:22.600
for a pullback.

1449
01:09:22.840 --> 01:09:26.479
We have been yeah, and comfortably with five percent.

1450
01:09:26.640 --> 01:09:29.119
I don't feel like the fundamentals are so bad that

1451
01:09:29.279 --> 01:09:31.399
like what we've seen in twenty one where you saw

1452
01:09:31.520 --> 01:09:34.279
game stop and AMC and doc you sign at three

1453
01:09:34.359 --> 01:09:37.039
hundred and zoo oh no, no, no, four hundred. It's

1454
01:09:37.079 --> 01:09:37.760
not that bad.

1455
01:09:38.279 --> 01:09:39.279
It's just elevated.

1456
01:09:39.399 --> 01:09:40.119
Yeah, but it's.

1457
01:09:40.880 --> 01:09:42.880
Rich and pullback will probably put the money to work

1458
01:09:42.880 --> 01:09:43.399
in that sense.

1459
01:09:43.560 --> 01:09:45.960
But when we say bad, some people will hear that

1460
01:09:46.039 --> 01:09:48.840
as if you know, we're comparing it to a market

1461
01:09:48.880 --> 01:09:50.680
that was just you throw a dart of the stock

1462
01:09:50.720 --> 01:09:52.960
and you can make a winner. No matter what. We're

1463
01:09:53.000 --> 01:09:53.479
not there.

1464
01:09:54.399 --> 01:09:57.800
I think any any tradible dip will be bought. I

1465
01:09:57.800 --> 01:10:01.680
don't think there's much downside here, unless, like Deane said,

1466
01:10:01.680 --> 01:10:03.600
there's some kind of a black swan event, some kind

1467
01:10:03.600 --> 01:10:07.159
of a headline making. You know, I'm not even to

1468
01:10:07.439 --> 01:10:09.880
mention the possibilities because there I don't want to.

1469
01:10:09.800 --> 01:10:11.399
Hear that's the only way you see something like that.

1470
01:10:11.439 --> 01:10:14.159
Like in August, we thought with that carry trade. It

1471
01:10:14.239 --> 01:10:17.439
was we thought of something different, Marcus drop seven percent

1472
01:10:17.439 --> 01:10:18.279
in three days and then.

1473
01:10:20.039 --> 01:10:22.560
Had to economy hedge fund imploding.

1474
01:10:22.720 --> 01:10:24.199
Yeah, I had nothing to do with the economy, So

1475
01:10:24.239 --> 01:10:26.000
then it was that in a week.

1476
01:10:26.880 --> 01:10:29.000
Things of that nature. I think any kind of a

1477
01:10:29.039 --> 01:10:31.199
big move down in bitcoin might shake the market a

1478
01:10:31.239 --> 01:10:34.560
little bit, stuff like that. But you're right, I think

1479
01:10:34.600 --> 01:10:38.479
that uh, a tradeable down move three to five percent

1480
01:10:38.560 --> 01:10:41.000
probably is purchased because a lot of people missed this

1481
01:10:41.159 --> 01:10:44.079
run since Trump was elected and would like to be

1482
01:10:44.119 --> 01:10:44.600
a part of.

1483
01:10:44.520 --> 01:10:46.720
It, especially if it's the NASDA can move down with

1484
01:10:46.760 --> 01:10:47.600
all the tech companies.

1485
01:10:47.640 --> 01:10:49.760
Yeah, that'll be bought, Yeah, because that's very appealing.

1486
01:10:49.840 --> 01:10:51.880
The chip socks haven't really been I mean, they didn't

1487
01:10:51.880 --> 01:10:52.720
do nothing this week.

1488
01:10:53.000 --> 01:10:54.880
I got a little bit of a pop on Friday

1489
01:10:54.880 --> 01:10:59.800
when the Biden administration announced new restrictions on sales to

1490
01:11:00.720 --> 01:11:03.920
and they weren't anywhere near as severe as what had

1491
01:11:03.920 --> 01:11:06.439
been feared. I think that was a lot of what

1492
01:11:06.560 --> 01:11:09.840
gave the market a little boost on Friday is that

1493
01:11:11.600 --> 01:11:13.399
they could have been you know, they could have been

1494
01:11:13.479 --> 01:11:16.720
quite onerous, and they weren't. So it's kind of funny.

1495
01:11:16.800 --> 01:11:18.880
We're going to put more restrictions on what you can

1496
01:11:18.920 --> 01:11:22.039
sell to China, and you're going to respond by rallying

1497
01:11:24.840 --> 01:11:27.600
am doing down twelve percent on Tuesday. I want to

1498
01:11:27.600 --> 01:11:30.239
talk about the GLP one when we get back. We're

1499
01:11:30.279 --> 01:11:32.199
coming up on a break here, and I don't want

1500
01:11:32.239 --> 01:11:35.520
to start something. Bed Bath and Body down fifteen percent

1501
01:11:35.560 --> 01:11:39.239
this year, up fifteen percent on Monday. Stronger than an

1502
01:11:39.239 --> 01:11:42.720
expected quarter with upbeat guidance, and we did not see

1503
01:11:42.720 --> 01:11:45.359
a lot of upbeat guidance. Most of the guidance this

1504
01:11:45.399 --> 01:11:50.159
week was cautious, which there were four or five companies

1505
01:11:50.239 --> 01:11:52.880
I think it was on Wednesday that reported decent earnings

1506
01:11:52.920 --> 01:11:56.079
and cautious guidance. It's getting to be a little bit

1507
01:11:56.119 --> 01:11:58.079
of a trend. Anyway. We're coming up on a break here.

1508
01:11:58.359 --> 01:12:02.199
We appreciate you joining us on Thanksgiving edition of The

1509
01:12:02.239 --> 01:12:04.640
Money Matter Show. We'll be back with a couple more

1510
01:12:04.680 --> 01:12:06.039
segments right after this break.

1511
01:12:08.119 --> 01:12:10.399
Welcome back to The Money Matter Show. My name is Toddlick.

1512
01:12:10.439 --> 01:12:13.920
Come here with Dylan Greenberg, Sebastian Boardsini, and David Sherwood.

1513
01:12:14.359 --> 01:12:16.560
This week in the market, we saw interest rates take

1514
01:12:16.600 --> 01:12:19.079
a dip lower. But what also happened was the spread

1515
01:12:19.119 --> 01:12:22.039
between the two year, and the ten year narrowed even more.

1516
01:12:22.640 --> 01:12:27.560
It's now at only, well technically only seventeen basis points,

1517
01:12:27.600 --> 01:12:28.359
maybe even less.

1518
01:12:28.399 --> 01:12:30.720
I'm showing two years four point one seven and the

1519
01:12:30.800 --> 01:12:33.560
ten year four point two, so that'd be free basis point.

1520
01:12:33.600 --> 01:12:36.239
That's one Yeah, okay, I think, yeah, exactly.

1521
01:12:35.960 --> 01:12:36.880
Three basis points.

1522
01:12:36.880 --> 01:12:38.479
And what we did that's pretty flat.

1523
01:12:38.600 --> 01:12:40.399
Yeah, toad. Remember the end of day, I went through

1524
01:12:40.439 --> 01:12:43.039
the one to ten year treasuries and one to eight

1525
01:12:43.119 --> 01:12:46.560
year were all the same. Pick your year right and say, well,

1526
01:12:46.560 --> 01:12:48.520
why would I buy an eight year or if I

1527
01:12:48.520 --> 01:12:49.960
if the one if it paid the.

1528
01:12:49.960 --> 01:12:51.880
One year is a little higher one years at four

1529
01:12:51.880 --> 01:12:54.119
point three, but every other than that it's four point

1530
01:12:54.159 --> 01:12:55.000
one across the board.

1531
01:12:55.079 --> 01:12:57.560
Yeah, well I did this one. There was four. It

1532
01:12:57.640 --> 01:12:59.439
had to have been a few weeks back, and it

1533
01:12:59.479 --> 01:13:02.720
was four right across up through eight years. And so well,

1534
01:13:02.800 --> 01:13:06.119
why would I lock in for five years if I

1535
01:13:06.119 --> 01:13:08.560
can get the same rate for one? Well, because five

1536
01:13:08.640 --> 01:13:10.479
years from now there may be a recession going on

1537
01:13:10.520 --> 01:13:11.720
and the rates are going to be quite a bit

1538
01:13:11.720 --> 01:13:13.920
lower than they are now, and you will have locked

1539
01:13:13.960 --> 01:13:15.359
it in for five years.

1540
01:13:16.000 --> 01:13:16.199
Yeah.

1541
01:13:16.239 --> 01:13:20.039
But what the market's saying is we're it's not going

1542
01:13:20.039 --> 01:13:22.279
in the right direction. The boond market has three times

1543
01:13:22.319 --> 01:13:25.560
the amount of the stock market, and when you have

1544
01:13:25.640 --> 01:13:27.960
a closer and closer inversion on that, I mean, we

1545
01:13:28.039 --> 01:13:30.800
did see an inversion for sixteen months and we didn't

1546
01:13:30.800 --> 01:13:33.960
see any correction, but I don't expect to see another

1547
01:13:34.000 --> 01:13:37.279
inversion also not to see a correction again. You know,

1548
01:13:37.439 --> 01:13:40.039
normally you see maybe one outlier that it doesn't happen,

1549
01:13:40.119 --> 01:13:42.319
but it doesn't normally happen again.

1550
01:13:42.520 --> 01:13:45.600
And no, it's odd, isn't it? And from week from week.

1551
01:13:45.439 --> 01:13:46.920
To week was it was the first time in history,

1552
01:13:46.960 --> 01:13:49.399
I'm pretty sure. Yeah, yeah, not done a recession.

1553
01:13:49.439 --> 01:13:52.199
So yeah, it being so narrow that the spread being

1554
01:13:52.239 --> 01:13:54.199
so narrow a week to week it could invert, not

1555
01:13:54.680 --> 01:13:56.239
you know, day to day even right.

1556
01:13:56.359 --> 01:13:58.319
But I think what they say, like when the curve

1557
01:13:58.439 --> 01:14:00.960
is inverted for more than like three months or maybe

1558
01:14:01.000 --> 01:14:03.600
it was six months, it's like every time it's been

1559
01:14:03.600 --> 01:14:05.600
a recession one percent of the time. So this was

1560
01:14:05.600 --> 01:14:07.720
like the first time in where when we had that

1561
01:14:07.760 --> 01:14:10.680
inversion from twenty three into the twenty four where we

1562
01:14:10.680 --> 01:14:13.479
actually didn't have a recession and it never happens.

1563
01:14:13.319 --> 01:14:17.159
If I remember correctly, the longest inversion in history was

1564
01:14:17.239 --> 01:14:19.760
eighteen months, and this one was almost three years.

1565
01:14:19.840 --> 01:14:20.520
I was still in.

1566
01:14:20.479 --> 01:14:25.680
School when it first. Well, yeah it did, it did reinvert.

1567
01:14:25.720 --> 01:14:29.840
It was like thirty months of inversion. It's never seen

1568
01:14:29.880 --> 01:14:32.520
anything like that. Let's talk about the GLP one stocks

1569
01:14:32.520 --> 01:14:32.960
a little bit.

1570
01:14:33.079 --> 01:14:33.760
What happened.

1571
01:14:34.760 --> 01:14:37.560
The Biden administration came out and they proposed a rule

1572
01:14:37.600 --> 01:14:41.319
that would expand access for the obesity drugs to millions

1573
01:14:41.359 --> 01:14:45.039
of Medicare and Medicaid patients. And this is a proposal

1574
01:14:46.039 --> 01:14:49.439
Trump gets in. Maybe that's the ing that so does

1575
01:14:49.479 --> 01:14:50.279
it have legs?

1576
01:14:50.439 --> 01:14:51.000
I don't know.

1577
01:14:52.560 --> 01:14:55.039
You wonder how long something like this would last, if

1578
01:14:55.720 --> 01:14:59.920
if GLP won. Critic Kennedy actually was confirmed, and he's

1579
01:15:00.119 --> 01:15:02.159
been very much of a non believer in the g

1580
01:15:02.319 --> 01:15:04.640
LP one. He's more of a put the fork down guy.

1581
01:15:04.760 --> 01:15:07.039
Novo's looking really attractive to me, and that's kind of

1582
01:15:07.079 --> 01:15:09.399
the only big thing keeping me out.

1583
01:15:09.640 --> 01:15:12.319
Well, Lily and Novo Nordis, who who are the two

1584
01:15:12.399 --> 01:15:16.239
primary makers of these drugs, really had to pop on

1585
01:15:16.279 --> 01:15:20.760
that news that Biden wants them to bring into Medicare

1586
01:15:20.760 --> 01:15:24.239
and Medicaid. Again, it's a proposal Biden's got about you know,

1587
01:15:24.319 --> 01:15:27.600
five minutes left in office. I'm not sure that that

1588
01:15:27.640 --> 01:15:30.800
would be a reason to load up on Lily stock

1589
01:15:30.920 --> 01:15:34.560
because somebody who's got him a month left or six

1590
01:15:34.600 --> 01:15:38.119
weeks left, whatever, is thinking that it ought to be

1591
01:15:38.520 --> 01:15:42.079
approved because getting that done, I think is pretty close

1592
01:15:42.119 --> 01:15:46.239
to zero this time of the year. And you wonder

1593
01:15:46.239 --> 01:15:47.479
how much that's political too.

1594
01:15:47.520 --> 01:15:50.239
Both of those companies, Eli Lily and Novo caught a

1595
01:15:50.279 --> 01:15:53.720
big bid on a off of Amgen's bat report.

1596
01:15:53.880 --> 01:15:56.359
Let's talk about Amgen a little bit. That's an interesting report.

1597
01:15:56.359 --> 01:15:58.760
Amgen has their own GLP one, or their own weight

1598
01:15:58.840 --> 01:16:02.239
loss drug, down twelve percent on Tuesday, hit a fifty

1599
01:16:02.279 --> 01:16:08.800
two week low after their weight loss drug excuse me,

1600
01:16:09.600 --> 01:16:14.000
weight loss candy showed that investors thought were disappointing results.

1601
01:16:14.119 --> 01:16:18.079
You lose twenty percent of your weight on average in

1602
01:16:18.119 --> 01:16:23.159
twelve months, okay, which is comparable weight loss to noble

1603
01:16:23.359 --> 01:16:28.159
artists and Eli Lilly. It's not enough to but see

1604
01:16:28.199 --> 01:16:31.239
here's the deal. You only use the emgine product once

1605
01:16:31.279 --> 01:16:33.920
a month, you use the others once a week.

1606
01:16:35.520 --> 01:16:36.880
Seems like a pretty good trade off to man.

1607
01:16:36.920 --> 01:16:39.880
Pretty good tradeoff, and perhaps that's why it takes a year.

1608
01:16:40.640 --> 01:16:42.079
And I think you know in the world we live,

1609
01:16:42.119 --> 01:16:43.680
and I'm not going to wait to eear to lose

1610
01:16:43.720 --> 01:16:45.079
twenty percent of my weight.

1611
01:16:45.920 --> 01:16:47.720
It for fifteen years, but I'm not going to take

1612
01:16:47.720 --> 01:16:49.760
a year to lose it right right overnight.

1613
01:16:49.840 --> 01:16:50.199
Right now.

1614
01:16:50.319 --> 01:16:51.760
I want to go out of it. I want to

1615
01:16:51.760 --> 01:16:55.119
be out of it like now right. So I'm thinking

1616
01:16:55.159 --> 01:16:57.159
maybe that's the one thing that accounts for it, is

1617
01:16:57.199 --> 01:17:00.520
that it takes a year rather than just a few months.

1618
01:17:00.560 --> 01:17:03.439
I thought the report was actually pretty good, and I said,

1619
01:17:03.439 --> 01:17:05.880
the stack down twelve percent, which is like really.

1620
01:17:06.039 --> 01:17:07.880
Probably a little overdone.

1621
01:17:07.600 --> 01:17:10.159
I thought, which maybe makes it to buy an opportunity

1622
01:17:10.479 --> 01:17:13.199
if stocks like that once they settle out, if you

1623
01:17:13.319 --> 01:17:15.800
like the company from a dip like that, you could

1624
01:17:16.079 --> 01:17:16.640
start a buying.

1625
01:17:16.800 --> 01:17:20.159
The only reason I wouldn't choose sam Gens because it's uh, Eli,

1626
01:17:20.199 --> 01:17:23.520
Liley and Novo seemed like they're the real leaders.

1627
01:17:23.239 --> 01:17:25.199
And this is a good one. So I had a

1628
01:17:25.239 --> 01:17:29.159
client over the weekend say that she's gonna gift she

1629
01:17:29.239 --> 01:17:32.279
has seven kids. She's gonna gift one thousand dollars to

1630
01:17:32.359 --> 01:17:35.000
each kid and the kid gets to pick a stock

1631
01:17:35.079 --> 01:17:36.319
on December twenty fourth.

1632
01:17:36.399 --> 01:17:38.279
Yeah, I've had a similar client and.

1633
01:17:38.199 --> 01:17:41.640
Then one year later, whoever has the biggest gain, they'll

1634
01:17:41.680 --> 01:17:46.359
double back value for that kid. So the question is

1635
01:17:46.479 --> 01:17:50.279
what's your what's your stock from December twenty fourth for the.

1636
01:17:50.319 --> 01:17:53.239
Next twelve months, it has to be a stock?

1637
01:17:54.399 --> 01:17:58.760
Yes, no, yes, no, commanders a stock.

1638
01:18:00.000 --> 01:18:00.640
It's a tough one.

1639
01:18:01.760 --> 01:18:03.840
Really want bitcoin, you can get microschuredgy.

1640
01:18:04.720 --> 01:18:10.359
Yeah, I'll take microcragy. I can't. It just feels like

1641
01:18:10.399 --> 01:18:13.039
bitcoin is getting ready to explode, which means it's probably

1642
01:18:13.039 --> 01:18:13.720
gonna fall apart.

1643
01:18:14.560 --> 01:18:17.079
You know, I know Kramer said buy it, so that,

1644
01:18:17.239 --> 01:18:18.640
oh man, that might be the same.

1645
01:18:18.680 --> 01:18:20.960
That's what I took it from ninety nine down to ninety.

1646
01:18:21.039 --> 01:18:23.600
Kramer's bat lucks moving off of just stocks too. He

1647
01:18:23.720 --> 01:18:25.840
predicted that he's like, Trump's not gonna win, and then

1648
01:18:26.079 --> 01:18:26.800
look what happened.

1649
01:18:27.920 --> 01:18:30.479
You know, listening to him every day on his I'm

1650
01:18:30.520 --> 01:18:32.960
a member of his investing club and just listen to

1651
01:18:33.000 --> 01:18:35.720
his he does a ten minute deal every morning in

1652
01:18:36.319 --> 01:18:38.439
Jeff Mark, I think, and so I listened to that.

1653
01:18:39.119 --> 01:18:42.359
He was pretty he was sending a lot of signals

1654
01:18:42.359 --> 01:18:45.479
that Trump was gonna win. For a couple of weeks

1655
01:18:45.520 --> 01:18:47.960
before the election, two or three weeks before the election,

1656
01:18:48.439 --> 01:18:51.479
I didn't say so outright, and I the bottom line

1657
01:18:51.520 --> 01:18:54.439
is nobody knew and if you, if you to no

1658
01:18:54.520 --> 01:18:58.159
one you loaded up on bitcoin because that was a

1659
01:18:58.279 --> 01:19:02.560
dull you know, a duh investment if you knew that

1660
01:19:02.560 --> 01:19:07.119
Trump was gonna win. If Trump had not won, instead

1661
01:19:07.119 --> 01:19:09.239
of going from sixty too already have gone from sixty

1662
01:19:09.279 --> 01:19:13.840
to thirty probably or at least not done anywhere near

1663
01:19:14.399 --> 01:19:17.239
what he's done. Remember last week we mentioned the money

1664
01:19:17.279 --> 01:19:18.920
manager Stanley Drunken Miller.

1665
01:19:19.000 --> 01:19:20.920
Well, you didn't answer the question, so I love how

1666
01:19:20.960 --> 01:19:24.640
you do my segment, and you weren't the only one

1667
01:19:24.680 --> 01:19:25.840
I was asking either.

1668
01:19:25.640 --> 01:19:28.359
So you're asking all the guys. Yeah, I don't know.

1669
01:19:28.399 --> 01:19:31.880
I don't know. I just kind of maybe i'll next week.

1670
01:19:32.119 --> 01:19:34.600
I'll answered the question next week. I think I look

1671
01:19:34.640 --> 01:19:35.079
at it little.

1672
01:19:35.079 --> 01:19:37.760
So I'm just going for absolute gains here, like I'm

1673
01:19:37.800 --> 01:19:40.239
not trying to be prudence or anything like that. Yeah,

1674
01:19:40.239 --> 01:19:41.800
because if I'm trying to be prudence and I want

1675
01:19:41.800 --> 01:19:44.560
to pick a good company buying, I'm buying Google.

1676
01:19:45.479 --> 01:19:48.640
If not just the gains, yes, the highest game, that's

1677
01:19:48.680 --> 01:19:49.119
how you win.

1678
01:19:50.840 --> 01:19:52.039
Well, it had to be something. It had to be

1679
01:19:52.039 --> 01:19:53.880
some penny stock, and I just can't think of anything.

1680
01:19:53.880 --> 01:19:54.199
I know.

1681
01:19:57.600 --> 01:20:02.199
It's already taken small module react Okay, s mr Head

1682
01:20:02.199 --> 01:20:05.960
a heck of a day on copping growing penny stock

1683
01:20:06.079 --> 01:20:09.960
open open whatever, it's k O P I N.

1684
01:20:10.680 --> 01:20:13.560
How would you say that word copping? See?

1685
01:20:13.920 --> 01:20:15.760
So how do you say cop C O P?

1686
01:20:17.319 --> 01:20:17.520
Right?

1687
01:20:18.760 --> 01:20:20.199
So why would you say k O P.

1688
01:20:23.560 --> 01:20:24.039
K O P.

1689
01:20:25.560 --> 01:20:28.600
Lead and three different means?

1690
01:20:29.880 --> 01:20:30.199
Really?

1691
01:20:30.399 --> 01:20:33.720
Moving on, they make little lenses for like the virtual

1692
01:20:33.760 --> 01:20:36.199
reality stuff for Apple. So I'm hoping, you know, Apple

1693
01:20:36.279 --> 01:20:40.520
just buys them Mountain next year. Yeah, that's my penny stock.

1694
01:20:40.520 --> 01:20:41.880
Otherwise R is the.

1695
01:20:43.319 --> 01:20:48.680
Yeah from a percentage gained. If I had to pick

1696
01:20:48.720 --> 01:20:53.439
an inexpensive stock, and I probably I might take a shot.

1697
01:20:53.159 --> 01:20:58.000
At Ford might take at some point, you.

1698
01:20:57.920 --> 01:21:02.159
Think that's gonna be a winner over a tech company.

1699
01:21:01.039 --> 01:21:03.680
UND fifty really because they're only eleven dollars.

1700
01:21:04.680 --> 01:21:07.319
Okay? In that sense Intel tanked.

1701
01:21:07.399 --> 01:21:10.640
Intel's possible the Intel Intel could come alive. What do

1702
01:21:10.680 --> 01:21:11.960
you think? What's your favorite?

1703
01:21:12.600 --> 01:21:14.920
I think one that I haven't heard is I like

1704
01:21:15.000 --> 01:21:19.920
Qualkham seventeen times earnings right now?

1705
01:21:19.960 --> 01:21:22.439
Yeah, a struggling super cheap I know why they're struggling.

1706
01:21:22.439 --> 01:21:24.720
But there was reports two months ago about them possibly

1707
01:21:24.760 --> 01:21:27.640
buying Intel. I don't know about you, but if I

1708
01:21:27.680 --> 01:21:29.760
don't know how you're struggling if you have reports about

1709
01:21:29.760 --> 01:21:32.600
you buying Intel, So I don't think there's.

1710
01:21:32.479 --> 01:21:33.680
Much to the work struggling.

1711
01:21:33.760 --> 01:21:35.479
No, no, no, I no, I agree with you, but it's like,

1712
01:21:35.560 --> 01:21:38.079
what what could you not like? On investors sides, like

1713
01:21:38.359 --> 01:21:40.199
and they're talking about buying someone out one of the

1714
01:21:40.199 --> 01:21:42.439
biggest those they obviously have some money.

1715
01:21:42.479 --> 01:21:44.680
Those talks have settled down. But yeah, the fact that

1716
01:21:44.720 --> 01:21:47.600
they can and even have the conversation even rumors.

1717
01:21:47.239 --> 01:21:50.880
About it, if it wasn't possible, it was streussed so

1718
01:21:51.760 --> 01:21:54.720
and then again seventeen times earning. They have really good earnings.

1719
01:21:54.720 --> 01:21:57.000
They even pay a dividend and their growth company that

1720
01:21:57.199 --> 01:21:59.600
could easily say some AI words and it goes crazy.

1721
01:21:59.640 --> 01:22:01.880
That's dog that two twenties, that one fifty right now.

1722
01:22:02.600 --> 01:22:04.520
You know they're one of the big suppliers of the

1723
01:22:04.920 --> 01:22:07.720
apple chips for Apple, right, and I think one of

1724
01:22:07.760 --> 01:22:10.079
the things so if aping on their own tip right,

1725
01:22:10.159 --> 01:22:12.680
so right, they won't equal com anymore? Is that maybe

1726
01:22:12.680 --> 01:22:15.560
that's what's possibly not the stock down, But but it

1727
01:22:15.640 --> 01:22:17.960
is a great company. I think different headquarters San Diego.

1728
01:22:18.000 --> 01:22:19.520
I think you know, but.

1729
01:22:19.760 --> 01:22:21.720
I think the small one that I would go for

1730
01:22:22.880 --> 01:22:26.880
also would be Mara because they started doing what micro

1731
01:22:26.920 --> 01:22:30.520
shagy does, but they also mind bitcoin, and bitcoin goes crazy,

1732
01:22:30.520 --> 01:22:32.520
that thing will go crazy. That'll go to like eighty

1733
01:22:32.560 --> 01:22:34.239
bucks and it's like twenty two right now, so that

1734
01:22:34.279 --> 01:22:34.720
would be a.

1735
01:22:34.640 --> 01:22:37.880
Crazy I think whenever you're which you typically find when

1736
01:22:37.920 --> 01:22:41.399
somebody wins one of these, you know, pick the stock contest,

1737
01:22:41.439 --> 01:22:45.319
it's generally some little penny stock bizarre thing that could

1738
01:22:45.359 --> 01:22:49.119
go to zero, but it didn't, right, So those are.

1739
01:22:49.359 --> 01:22:51.319
But it's fun ways for people to have ideas of

1740
01:22:51.319 --> 01:22:55.640
how to get their own grandkids or kids involved in investing. Obviously,

1741
01:22:55.680 --> 01:22:57.960
a thousand dollars isn't going to make or break anyone

1742
01:22:58.680 --> 01:23:01.840
for most people. So if you have some discussion and money,

1743
01:23:01.840 --> 01:23:03.960
it's a good way for them to at least gain

1744
01:23:04.000 --> 01:23:06.600
some education about what stocks are, the risks that are

1745
01:23:06.640 --> 01:23:10.840
involved in picking obviously very volatile stocks, and what the

1746
01:23:10.840 --> 01:23:14.159
differences are between like an index and actually just investing

1747
01:23:14.199 --> 01:23:14.880
in one stock.

1748
01:23:15.079 --> 01:23:17.520
Right, and you could be they would be custou deal

1749
01:23:17.560 --> 01:23:20.119
accounts where you still have control of the money. Obviously

1750
01:23:20.119 --> 01:23:22.520
you got a minor cannot open a brokerage account, right.

1751
01:23:23.560 --> 01:23:26.880
That's I've actually had another client that that does that

1752
01:23:27.000 --> 01:23:29.000
regularly with her grandchildren.

1753
01:23:29.000 --> 01:23:30.840
You could also just open your own brokerage account and

1754
01:23:30.880 --> 01:23:33.399
keep it in your name and just keep track of itself.

1755
01:23:33.520 --> 01:23:35.359
Absolutely could. Yeah, no, that's a good point.

1756
01:23:36.039 --> 01:23:38.520
It goes through a lot less paperwork than paperwork.

1757
01:23:40.479 --> 01:23:42.800
Call it the educational account or whatever, and then have

1758
01:23:42.880 --> 01:23:45.760
a separate ledger where you're keeping track of what kid

1759
01:23:45.800 --> 01:23:48.439
did what exactly. It's a lot easier and plus you

1760
01:23:48.520 --> 01:23:50.960
control the money. You don't have to give them the

1761
01:23:50.960 --> 01:23:55.039
money when they're eighteen, because sometimes despite how fabulous the

1762
01:23:55.079 --> 01:23:59.079
parents are, the children stray can happen. I've seen great

1763
01:23:59.079 --> 01:24:02.399
parents with a lowsy wellthy parents with great kids. So

1764
01:24:02.720 --> 01:24:04.199
you do the best you can and then you put

1765
01:24:04.199 --> 01:24:06.399
them out in the world and it is what it is.

1766
01:24:06.880 --> 01:24:09.319
We'll be back with the final segment of the Money

1767
01:24:09.359 --> 01:24:12.039
Matter Show on this Thanksgiving weekend. Hope everybody was able

1768
01:24:12.079 --> 01:24:14.760
to spend some time over the weekend with their family

1769
01:24:15.199 --> 01:24:18.720
and give thanks for what's really important in our lives,

1770
01:24:18.760 --> 01:24:22.159
which we should do every single day, but we don't.

1771
01:24:22.359 --> 01:24:24.079
So we have a day set aside each year when

1772
01:24:24.119 --> 01:24:26.279
the force is going to think about it. So Happy

1773
01:24:26.319 --> 01:24:28.760
Thanksgiving everyone. We'll be back right after this break.

1774
01:24:30.760 --> 01:24:32.560
Welcome back to the Money Matter Show. This is our

1775
01:24:32.640 --> 01:24:36.079
last segment on this Thanksgiving edition. I'm here with Dave Sherwood,

1776
01:24:36.119 --> 01:24:39.680
Sebastian Borsini, Dan Greenberg, and Todd Glick. You gotta see

1777
01:24:39.720 --> 01:24:41.840
there's going to be a new stock exchange coming out

1778
01:24:41.920 --> 01:24:45.239
second half of next year, twenty three hours, which can

1779
01:24:45.279 --> 01:24:48.840
expand to all the time, from Sunday at APM to

1780
01:24:48.920 --> 01:24:50.199
Friday at seven pm.

1781
01:24:50.520 --> 01:24:52.840
I can't wait to get a call asking to sell

1782
01:24:52.920 --> 01:24:54.000
some stock on Saturday.

1783
01:24:54.279 --> 01:24:55.760
No, it won't be. This's the only day it's not open.

1784
01:24:57.159 --> 01:25:00.159
But it's yeah, and they have one hour pause. It's

1785
01:25:00.159 --> 01:25:02.520
open from four am from time to seven pm or

1786
01:25:02.560 --> 01:25:05.680
oh sorry till whatever. Three am.

1787
01:25:06.159 --> 01:25:08.159
Just what everyone who has no life needs.

1788
01:25:08.199 --> 01:25:09.000
Let us relax.

1789
01:25:09.680 --> 01:25:12.479
It's horrible, No, it's it's a horrible idea and it's

1790
01:25:12.600 --> 01:25:14.319
I can't believe the SEC approved it.

1791
01:25:14.439 --> 01:25:16.680
It's better for to go through one more regulation. I

1792
01:25:16.720 --> 01:25:19.039
don't know what it's actually approved.

1793
01:25:19.640 --> 01:25:22.159
I can't believe anybody on Wall Street supportive of it.

1794
01:25:22.359 --> 01:25:24.119
I mean, you have to have a life.

1795
01:25:24.159 --> 01:25:26.720
This is what we do for a job, right, it's

1796
01:25:26.720 --> 01:25:28.399
going to be big companies where they're going to have

1797
01:25:28.680 --> 01:25:31.960
people work the morning shift and the night shift kind

1798
01:25:31.960 --> 01:25:32.199
of thing.

1799
01:25:32.640 --> 01:25:37.399
But I mean, what about ABC ABC stock closer to

1800
01:25:37.479 --> 01:25:39.399
thirty and you come in and it's at forty.

1801
01:25:39.119 --> 01:25:42.319
Five, Oh my gosh, or the other way no, or.

1802
01:25:42.600 --> 01:25:45.399
Crashing had no control over, you had no idea. Why

1803
01:25:45.439 --> 01:25:47.239
weren't you in the office at three in the morning.

1804
01:25:48.079 --> 01:25:50.399
Yeah, it's like sleeping can't be the expectation.

1805
01:25:50.520 --> 01:25:53.960
Not a good idea, And hopefully it doesn't get like, yeah.

1806
01:25:53.760 --> 01:25:55.760
We'll see second half of twenty twenty five is there.

1807
01:25:55.760 --> 01:25:58.960
I'd expect that this is an ongoing trend. I mean

1808
01:25:59.039 --> 01:26:02.840
everything wants to be more, more accessible, more and more hours.

1809
01:26:02.920 --> 01:26:05.079
I mean the four x markets open six days a week,

1810
01:26:05.079 --> 01:26:08.399
twenty four to Sevencoin can do it, stock market can

1811
01:26:08.439 --> 01:26:08.680
do it.

1812
01:26:08.840 --> 01:26:10.640
I guess the only good news is the volume is

1813
01:26:10.680 --> 01:26:14.760
so swim and the off hours that you normally they are,

1814
01:26:15.039 --> 01:26:17.920
you're really rolling the dice when you're playing in that arena.

1815
01:26:18.439 --> 01:26:20.920
The only time it normally really sticks is around like

1816
01:26:20.920 --> 01:26:23.840
earning's reports or something like that. Has to be a

1817
01:26:23.840 --> 01:26:27.039
pretty ball to move for an aftermarket to really stick, right.

1818
01:26:27.000 --> 01:26:31.199
Have you ever heard of unusual machines. Yes, last week,

1819
01:26:31.239 --> 01:26:34.359
the company unusual, that's the actual name of the company.

1820
01:26:35.039 --> 01:26:38.720
It's it's the it's the It's a maker of drones

1821
01:26:39.279 --> 01:26:44.560
and drone components. Stock doubled on Wednesday after the company

1822
01:26:44.600 --> 01:26:50.880
announced Donald Trump Junior has joined the company's advisory board. Again. Well,

1823
01:26:50.920 --> 01:26:53.439
if Donald Trump Junior is on the board, maybe Daddy

1824
01:26:53.479 --> 01:26:56.720
can funnel us some business. But I thought that was

1825
01:26:56.760 --> 01:26:59.000
interesting to do. On the one that we've talked about

1826
01:26:59.039 --> 01:27:02.039
a lot. Did you see very Vertive this week? Not

1827
01:27:02.119 --> 01:27:05.039
a good week for a verdive and it hit an

1828
01:27:05.039 --> 01:27:09.920
all time Avertive is called Vertive Holdings Simple VRT, and

1829
01:27:10.039 --> 01:27:12.960
it's a company that makes the cooling towers I guess,

1830
01:27:12.960 --> 01:27:16.279
for lack of a better term, that are needed to

1831
01:27:16.479 --> 01:27:21.399
run these red hot chips that Nvidia and others are making.

1832
01:27:22.239 --> 01:27:26.520
They run at such a high speed that they tend

1833
01:27:26.520 --> 01:27:31.199
to overheat and melt down unless they're surrounded by cooling material.

1834
01:27:31.640 --> 01:27:34.479
It keeps them temperate. They hit an all time high

1835
01:27:34.800 --> 01:27:39.239
last week, but then drop fifteen percent, primarily because suddenly

1836
01:27:39.960 --> 01:27:43.359
investors are concerned about the company's ability to maintain its

1837
01:27:43.479 --> 01:27:48.079
high growth amidst of challenging economic environment. That's what I

1838
01:27:48.159 --> 01:27:52.640
read that right off their pressure release really challenging economic environments.

1839
01:27:52.640 --> 01:27:55.359
Seems to me like the economic environments got less challenging.

1840
01:27:55.399 --> 01:27:57.680
We sh would drop another twenty percent so we can

1841
01:27:57.720 --> 01:27:58.119
get in.

1842
01:27:58.920 --> 01:28:01.359
Yeah, it's a expensive there's a lot of it is

1843
01:28:01.439 --> 01:28:03.439
expensive growth priced in that stock.

1844
01:28:03.560 --> 01:28:05.520
I mean, like you said, what did a drop ten percent?

1845
01:28:05.520 --> 01:28:08.479
That there fifteen okay, fifteen percent last week and.

1846
01:28:08.439 --> 01:28:09.960
If you look at it in last month is still

1847
01:28:10.039 --> 01:28:10.920
up thirteen percent.

1848
01:28:11.079 --> 01:28:14.079
Yeah, it's I think this this keep coming, keep coming

1849
01:28:14.079 --> 01:28:16.800
down to a really different story at eighty bucks. Eighty

1850
01:28:16.800 --> 01:28:20.600
bucks you're like rarely excited about it, but you know,

1851
01:28:20.920 --> 01:28:23.279
the election was on the horizon. You don't quite know

1852
01:28:23.359 --> 01:28:26.159
which way you should be transitioning. And then it shot

1853
01:28:26.239 --> 01:28:29.039
up to one forty and you're like, well that's a

1854
01:28:29.079 --> 01:28:30.960
little out of that zone.

1855
01:28:31.039 --> 01:28:34.399
Just like a month too. Yeah, it's going and going

1856
01:28:34.439 --> 01:28:34.560
and go.

1857
01:28:35.920 --> 01:28:37.760
You know, we see more and more companies kind of

1858
01:28:37.760 --> 01:28:41.680
going to kind of having this backlash against woke and

1859
01:28:41.760 --> 01:28:45.760
everything woke Walmart of all companies, because you think if

1860
01:28:45.760 --> 01:28:48.079
anybody's going to be woke, it's gonna be Walmart. Right now.

1861
01:28:48.960 --> 01:28:51.159
You don't think so I was okay, I would think

1862
01:28:51.199 --> 01:28:52.000
Walmart would really.

1863
01:28:51.880 --> 01:28:54.439
Be people old Walmart, aren't they like the trumpet of

1864
01:28:54.520 --> 01:28:55.079
the masses.

1865
01:28:55.239 --> 01:28:57.479
I just think, for whatever reason I think of woke

1866
01:28:57.560 --> 01:29:00.199
is targeting. That's not even because of their last.

1867
01:29:01.439 --> 01:29:01.560
No.

1868
01:29:01.720 --> 01:29:03.600
No, before that, I would have thought that, no.

1869
01:29:03.920 --> 01:29:07.760
Fact that they got in trouble over the one thing. Anyway,

1870
01:29:07.960 --> 01:29:11.720
Walmart confirmed last week that they're ending some of their

1871
01:29:11.720 --> 01:29:15.960
diversity initiatives, removing some of the l g P t

1872
01:29:16.199 --> 01:29:21.039
Q related merchandise from the website, and winding down a

1873
01:29:21.079 --> 01:29:27.279
nonprofit that funded programs for minorities. I was surprised, I know,

1874
01:29:27.319 --> 01:29:29.239
I just kind of always think of Walmart as the

1875
01:29:29.279 --> 01:29:32.279
working man's still earn. I'm gonna go with the.

1876
01:29:32.239 --> 01:29:34.640
People who own Walmart. I'm pretty sure they're big Trump

1877
01:29:34.920 --> 01:29:35.600
being supportive.

1878
01:29:35.640 --> 01:29:36.239
Yeah. Probably.

1879
01:29:38.000 --> 01:29:41.159
Yeah, So that's that's why they would do that.

1880
01:29:41.279 --> 01:29:41.439
You know.

1881
01:29:41.520 --> 01:29:45.239
Something that was interesting is the peso against the dollar

1882
01:29:45.319 --> 01:29:48.840
continues to hit new highs, which means the peso is

1883
01:29:48.880 --> 01:29:50.880
weakening against the dollar. And I was talking a little

1884
01:29:50.880 --> 01:29:52.840
bit last week about how currencies go up and down.

1885
01:29:53.159 --> 01:29:55.920
The reason the peso continues to get weaker against the

1886
01:29:55.960 --> 01:30:00.880
dollar is the Mexicans elected a socialist resident, the woman

1887
01:30:01.399 --> 01:30:05.159
who has said that she's going to expand socialist projects,

1888
01:30:05.199 --> 01:30:07.880
which says they're going to spend more money, more money.

1889
01:30:07.960 --> 01:30:10.640
And then we elected a president who says we're not

1890
01:30:10.680 --> 01:30:12.840
going to spend more money, We're gonna cut up money

1891
01:30:13.399 --> 01:30:17.239
social Our dollar goes up in value, their dollar goes down, well,

1892
01:30:17.239 --> 01:30:19.039
pays so goes down in relation.

1893
01:30:18.760 --> 01:30:20.439
To all they exchange rate these days.

1894
01:30:20.560 --> 01:30:23.199
One it's one, it's twenty now one to twenty.

1895
01:30:23.319 --> 01:30:27.680
Okay. My grandparents used to winter in McAllen, Texas, which

1896
01:30:27.720 --> 01:30:29.960
is right on the border near the tip of Texas,

1897
01:30:30.319 --> 01:30:32.960
and they would bring back paysos and were for us kids,

1898
01:30:32.960 --> 01:30:35.840
and we've all we thought we were so rich. We'd

1899
01:30:35.880 --> 01:30:37.720
look them up, you know, I remember how you look

1900
01:30:37.720 --> 01:30:41.000
them up back then. But it was always it was

1901
01:30:41.039 --> 01:30:42.520
always twelve to a dollar.

1902
01:30:42.960 --> 01:30:45.720
Yeah, I mean, and it was it was seventeen to

1903
01:30:45.760 --> 01:30:46.880
a dollar at the beginning of the year.

1904
01:30:47.039 --> 01:30:47.399
Okay.

1905
01:30:47.720 --> 01:30:50.920
So it's up twenty percent year today. So it's quite

1906
01:30:50.920 --> 01:30:53.479
a bit cheaper for Americans to go down to Mexico

1907
01:30:53.479 --> 01:30:55.439
to buy things in relation now because of that.

1908
01:30:55.560 --> 01:30:57.199
One of what it is they exchange rate on the

1909
01:30:57.239 --> 01:30:59.560
Canadian dollar is still something in the eighty cents area.

1910
01:31:00.319 --> 01:31:02.079
The only reason I asked, because I grew up in

1911
01:31:02.119 --> 01:31:06.840
South Dakota and Canadian. We'd go to Canada, Canada, Canadians

1912
01:31:06.880 --> 01:31:11.760
would come to us. Yeah, and he used to be

1913
01:31:11.800 --> 01:31:12.439
dollar for dollar.

1914
01:31:13.119 --> 01:31:15.520
Yeah. We used to say, Canada has done really, really

1915
01:31:15.520 --> 01:31:18.159
bad on their policies. Right, they have to spend a

1916
01:31:18.159 --> 01:31:20.600
whole bunch of money. They're super socialists now, So their

1917
01:31:20.760 --> 01:31:24.960
dollar lost value against our dollar and that's that's why

1918
01:31:24.960 --> 01:31:27.680
it's worse now. So it's it's easy to see how

1919
01:31:28.479 --> 01:31:32.119
overtime government policies they really do impact the currencies and

1920
01:31:32.159 --> 01:31:33.920
those valuations and things like that.

1921
01:31:34.039 --> 01:31:36.439
Yeah, the socialism thing is not working that way home.

1922
01:31:36.479 --> 01:31:39.039
No socialism, their scoreboard isn't looking good.

1923
01:31:39.079 --> 01:31:40.279
I don't know who said it, but I think it

1924
01:31:40.319 --> 01:31:42.880
was Ever Jerkson, who's someone he probably had never heard of,

1925
01:31:43.159 --> 01:31:45.319
but he said the problem with socialism is eventually you

1926
01:31:45.399 --> 01:31:50.079
run out of other people's money, you know. I think

1927
01:31:50.119 --> 01:31:50.880
there's some truth to.

1928
01:31:50.920 --> 01:31:52.760
That that has no fundamental value.

1929
01:31:52.920 --> 01:31:56.399
No, what so socialism. I agree with you. We said

1930
01:31:56.479 --> 01:32:00.960
last week Target after their disappointing quarter, these declines in

1931
01:32:01.000 --> 01:32:04.199
the stock have been a long term opportunity in Oppenheimer agreed.

1932
01:32:04.640 --> 01:32:08.000
They made the retailer a top pick, citing their three

1933
01:32:08.000 --> 01:32:10.680
point five percent given a nice rally last week. I

1934
01:32:10.680 --> 01:32:13.479
think I think Stock picked up about ten percent on

1935
01:32:13.560 --> 01:32:16.079
the week, somewhere in that in that range.

1936
01:32:16.159 --> 01:32:17.920
And they're gonna get all that foot traffic from that

1937
01:32:18.000 --> 01:32:20.600
Taylor Swift album. Like Todd was talking about last week,

1938
01:32:20.720 --> 01:32:21.680
It's gonna be awesome.

1939
01:32:21.880 --> 01:32:25.159
She's so Cool'm such a swiftye. You know, I chieved

1940
01:32:25.199 --> 01:32:27.479
such a sweet gallo, so easy to share for her.

1941
01:32:27.760 --> 01:32:31.880
I don't know, maybe it's just me, apparently not. Last

1942
01:32:31.880 --> 01:32:34.000
week on the show, we talked about Stanley Drunken Miller,

1943
01:32:34.000 --> 01:32:36.399
who's the money manager, kind of the warm Buffett junior,

1944
01:32:37.159 --> 01:32:39.479
seventy one year old who runs billions of dollars, and

1945
01:32:39.520 --> 01:32:42.600
we said he was lowering up on the regional bank stocks.

1946
01:32:43.039 --> 01:32:45.119
And well, guess what. Monday, the group hit an eighteen

1947
01:32:45.159 --> 01:32:48.319
month high as they played catch up with the major banks,

1948
01:32:48.319 --> 01:32:51.000
which we pointed out on the show last week, a Stock,

1949
01:32:51.079 --> 01:32:54.159
you guys probably played with more than anybody's Robin hood.

1950
01:32:54.199 --> 01:32:56.159
What a week? Huh? What a what a month? What

1951
01:32:56.279 --> 01:32:59.640
a Since the election? I have you guys follow that

1952
01:33:00.079 --> 01:33:04.359
financial services company just it's quadrupled in the last twelve months.

1953
01:33:04.520 --> 01:33:07.399
He had a three year high last week after Morgan

1954
01:33:07.439 --> 01:33:10.640
Stanley became the latest in a growing group of analysts

1955
01:33:10.640 --> 01:33:14.760
to like the stock. Stock was up sixty percent in November.

1956
01:33:15.319 --> 01:33:17.319
I think that's a it's the same trade as coin.

1957
01:33:17.800 --> 01:33:20.199
If you saw a coin coin no coin, Oh yeah

1958
01:33:20.359 --> 01:33:24.600
see oyn coin based the company that they just shot

1959
01:33:24.720 --> 01:33:27.840
up like crazy. And I think it's because more people

1960
01:33:27.880 --> 01:33:29.960
are going to be buying crypto because of Trump's victory,

1961
01:33:30.399 --> 01:33:32.560
and people a lot of people buy crypto and Robinhood.

1962
01:33:33.079 --> 01:33:35.000
They don't think of it as a crypto exchange, but

1963
01:33:35.159 --> 01:33:37.159
I've known a lot of people that have bought in

1964
01:33:37.239 --> 01:33:38.439
their first crypto in Robinhood.

1965
01:33:38.479 --> 01:33:42.720
Why would you buy crypto as opposed to a crypto ETF.

1966
01:33:44.000 --> 01:33:46.000
Because you're gambling crypto a gamble.

1967
01:33:46.079 --> 01:33:49.000
But they moved together in theory, right, No, no.

1968
01:33:48.800 --> 01:33:50.880
No, you can make a one hundred and twenty percent

1969
01:33:50.920 --> 01:33:53.359
on one day using one coin. You might make ten

1970
01:33:53.359 --> 01:33:57.720
percent on an ETFs when you could do one twenty.

1971
01:33:57.800 --> 01:33:59.319
There's more to crypto than just bitcoin.

1972
01:33:59.359 --> 01:34:03.399
Also, yeah, but cod anything beyond you know the squirrel,

1973
01:34:04.079 --> 01:34:06.399
but anything beyond bitcoin is truly gambling.

1974
01:34:06.479 --> 01:34:09.039
Just I U, I agree with you that that's what

1975
01:34:09.079 --> 01:34:09.560
they're doing.

1976
01:34:09.600 --> 01:34:12.199
They're just not buying anything but bitcoin, really, are they No.

1977
01:34:12.239 --> 01:34:14.359
They're buying a lot of crazy stuff.

1978
01:34:14.359 --> 01:34:16.399
There's a coin that's been going up that's called Peanut

1979
01:34:16.399 --> 01:34:16.720
the Squirrel.

1980
01:34:16.800 --> 01:34:19.680
Peanut the Squirrel. You remember the whole because it's that

1981
01:34:19.720 --> 01:34:20.680
peanut the squirrel.

1982
01:34:21.000 --> 01:34:24.039
Squirrel is that squirrel that got killed in New York.

1983
01:34:24.159 --> 01:34:27.119
Yes, yeah, they made a coin after him. They made

1984
01:34:27.119 --> 01:34:30.479
a coin after a mean pepe You know. It was

1985
01:34:30.560 --> 01:34:32.159
up like one hundred and forty percent the day.

1986
01:34:32.000 --> 01:34:33.840
You could trade. You could trade all these coins on

1987
01:34:33.920 --> 01:34:37.520
robin Hood. Just literally robin Hood is like the brokerage

1988
01:34:37.560 --> 01:34:38.600
of the retail investors.

1989
01:34:38.640 --> 01:34:40.399
I guess I think is coin.

1990
01:34:41.079 --> 01:34:43.600
That's why so much Yeah I could turn with crypto

1991
01:34:43.760 --> 01:34:48.000
is that it can get stolen, whereas the isn't going

1992
01:34:48.079 --> 01:34:48.520
to be stolen.

1993
01:34:48.600 --> 01:34:50.479
But no, but when you have these robin Hood apps

1994
01:34:50.520 --> 01:34:52.560
or coin base apps, you're not gonna it's not gonna

1995
01:34:52.560 --> 01:34:56.159
get stolen from there. It's like you trusting Merrill Lynch

1996
01:34:56.159 --> 01:34:56.720
to hold your ass.

1997
01:34:56.800 --> 01:34:56.960
Yeah.

1998
01:34:56.960 --> 01:34:59.199
I was gonna say, it's like a client fidelity. They're

1999
01:34:59.239 --> 01:35:01.880
they're in surre Well, robin Hood's insured.

2000
01:35:01.560 --> 01:35:03.720
Too, but probably not on a bitcoin, is it.

2001
01:35:04.159 --> 01:35:06.479
On the crypto it's an asset. You're still insured.

2002
01:35:06.560 --> 01:35:07.720
I mean not sure what.

2003
01:35:07.840 --> 01:35:10.079
I'm sure it gets a lot, not a loss of money.

2004
01:35:10.159 --> 01:35:13.239
Not loss of money, yeah, exactly. So that's why most

2005
01:35:13.279 --> 01:35:15.720
people like to use the exchanges because if they forget

2006
01:35:15.720 --> 01:35:17.399
their password, they just go to robin Hood and hey,

2007
01:35:17.399 --> 01:35:19.720
I forgot my password, here's my information giving if you

2008
01:35:19.760 --> 01:35:22.479
have it in your own wallet and you lose your password,

2009
01:35:22.520 --> 01:35:24.199
it is what it is. So most people they like

2010
01:35:24.239 --> 01:35:26.560
to go to these robin Hood or coin base because

2011
01:35:26.560 --> 01:35:29.520
it's easier to use. But also robinhood has so much

2012
01:35:29.520 --> 01:35:31.800
other things other than just crypto that you know, they

2013
01:35:31.800 --> 01:35:33.960
have this new card they're coming out with, but they

2014
01:35:34.000 --> 01:35:37.159
have fractional investing as well. So for a retail person,

2015
01:35:37.239 --> 01:35:39.800
like we're not telling someone you can invest, you know,

2016
01:35:39.880 --> 01:35:41.920
twenty two cents into Tesla, but you can do that

2017
01:35:41.960 --> 01:35:43.880
on robin Hood if you really wanted to.

2018
01:35:44.079 --> 01:35:46.600
Okay, so last week I was talking about the credit

2019
01:35:46.600 --> 01:35:48.199
card that they're coming out with, and so you're gonna

2020
01:35:48.199 --> 01:35:50.640
be able to buy fractional shares through your rewards points

2021
01:35:50.640 --> 01:35:52.319
that they're getting. You get two percent back. I could

2022
01:35:52.359 --> 01:35:54.640
just throw it into applestock pretty pretty easily.

2023
01:35:54.800 --> 01:35:56.920
That's amazing and they're also part of this twenty four

2024
01:35:56.960 --> 01:35:58.560
hour exchange that they're talking about.

2025
01:35:58.960 --> 01:35:59.520
I'm sure.

2026
01:36:00.039 --> 01:36:02.399
Anyway, we're coming to the end of the Money Matter Show.

2027
01:36:02.439 --> 01:36:04.720
We thank you for joining us on this Thanksgiving weekend.

2028
01:36:04.800 --> 01:36:07.359
We hope it was fantastic for you. We all want

2029
01:36:07.399 --> 01:36:09.600
to be happy, and of course we want to be healthy,

2030
01:36:09.640 --> 01:36:12.680
because being healthy makes happy a lot easier. At the

2031
01:36:12.720 --> 01:36:14.680
end of the day, what Greenberg Financial is trying to

2032
01:36:14.680 --> 01:36:17.439
be is profitable next week.
