Things that you did in the market today you bought walmart and mic microsoft. Why are you putting money to work in those stocks now why am i putting money to work and then ill get to those stocks we had had a 10 correction.

I suspect its around 160 but, honestly, folks, you have to just let it find its level. When it does, when it bottoms out, i will be adding to it. There is no fatal flaw here. Josh, what do we do with the stock . And whats the right way to
