So its clear, because i thought that when i became an attorney we had all of the sudden hit this place where communism i was going to be interviewed like a champion for justice. I didnt know that is going to have to navigate sociological stuff and racial stuff and biases and that kind of stuff. And so thats why the book was written because its sort of like my swansong to being a criminal defense attorney and saying this is real. Its not something from our past when, you know, they killed emmett till. This is all going to make sense, i promise. They killed emmett till and, you know, then the civil rights workers, Cheney Goodman and schwartz. And we saw those horrific images and all those folk again before emmett till and game after the young men in philadelphia, mississippi, right .

Because i done the outline for the bo

Whats right for the economy when it sees fit and may or may not be patient depending on whether patience is required or warranted. The dow gained and the s p gained 2. 22 and the nasdaq. So we go back to what brought us up here profit outlooks opportunity, and most important, pentup demand. No not pentup demand for laborer sales or new homes. Pentup demand for stocks. As so many Portfolio Managers wanted to be sure the fed wasnt going to create another they know nothing moment and crash stocks lower. Yep, weve become binary again, hanging on every word from the fed, hoping and praying it wont do something stupid. While we were hoping and praying the money stacks up on the sidelines and the hedge fund and Mutual Fund Managers along with the pension Fund Managers, theyre just waiting to hear with the fed will blow it.
