To our guest bill stone good to see you this morning with all due respect, we had eight fed speakers a little ridiculous on the fed speak. Speak once a quarter and come back nobody cares what i think. What do you think . Do you think the fed has our back i dont think it slid enough for them to really jump in hard yet. They are continuing to talk. They have been fushing for some sort of fiscal or additional fiscal stimulus and support. Seeing in the engineer likely to grow and come way off that move. Cloudy and thats what they are saying the Federal Reserve now in their almost daily speeches. What are you advising clients to do are you worried about the selloffs there is a lot of concern coming off the election what is the smartest play right now . Ill do this election first the one thing ive said in every election it doesnt make sense to vest according to your political views. It didnt make sense when obama took over and when trump took over there may be sectors and other things but making big picture, bullish calls doesnt make a lot of since here. One thing i will say that makes me feel a bit better the value side of the equation the high dif tend side still did a bit better why did that matter . If the worry was that the economy was caving in, you would likely see those perform significantly worse because they have more debt and lower quality. All those kind of things that make it so that what we saw in the worst of the lockdowns would likely happen again. Thats the underlying news here. Im going to Say Something political junkies dont want to hear politics dont really matter to the markets. The markets probably matter more to the politics. We have that coming up later on. Smartest play right now is what .

When i think about what might be accomplished from this, im thinking we can all drive our electric cars around, create power, in a sense become our own pour plants.
