Gained 160 points, but the nasdaq dipped 3. 4 we still care about the federal reserve. They know nothing just kidding. Or the president s speech tonight at the Republican National convention. But the core question is very simple, do you think we can beat covid19 sometime soon or are you expecting it to plague us into next year that can be difficult to see today, we were obsessed with fed chief jay powells big speech at jackson hole we parsed every word, and it wasnt worth parsing he was a prisoner of the flimsy orthodoxy, but these days he doesnt want to be the reason the economy falls apart. Hes saying forget the foolish ways of the past 40 years of fed chiefs his goal is to help the economy, period, until the pandemic lifts. Its joyful. Hes really smart and good guy thats a stock market like a supermarket. There are some aisles we want to go to when the virus is raging, and theres others we want to go to when its on the ropes.

Leave big tech for long. Look at this. Apple is back up by 7. Microsoft, 3. 50. Amazon, thats up 40 bucks. Alphabet up 21. Facebook up nearly five. Solid gains. Got it. All right. Its 6 00 on the west coast and the people of seattle are waking up to a full scale insurrection. I use that word deliberately because thats what it is. The capitol hill district in the city is now known as chaz. That is the capitol hill autonomous zone. Police officers have abandoned their precinct, the anarchists are in charge and the mayor says its not terrorism, its patriotism. You ever think an American City would cede control willingly to anarchy . It just happened. Varney company is about to begin. They dont straighten that situation out, were going to straighten it out.

My name is doug bradburn, on the founding director of the National Library for the study of George Washington at the beautiful mount vernon and delighted to welcome you again for a wonderful evening of conversation and history, and i also like to welcome the cspan audience out there who is recording us this evening. Great to have you back in the library. These evening book talks are special for a variety of reasons, because we get to bring exciting new historians to the eager community here, but also because its sponsored by ford, which has been a great donor to mount vernon for many, many years. As you ail know, mountain vernon ladys association does not take any government money.
