Report. Which first sent the market down, and then upon further review, made it roar back to life. Dow ultimately gaining 108 points, s p advancing 0. 6 . Nasdaq 0. 92 . Wow so how do you play something as dry and convoluted as the labor departments release . Simple, you look at outsized gains in certain segments of the report and you extrapolate. Which ones showed truly outstanding growth . First there was construction. The economy added 30,000 construction jobs in march, with the heaviest concentration in residential specialty trade. Second, retail, which added 48,000 jobs. The biggest gains besides general merchandise, 10,000 new jobs in building and materials and Garden Supply stores. Bingo hallelujah you have your payoff. By home depot. It dovetails perfectly with the release. Now, we know home depot said it was hiring more than 80,000 people for the spring selling season. Thats the big holiday. So, profit point number one is hd, which is not, coincidentally, breaking out here. Se
May have to raise rates very quickly in the future. And she says that due to raising rates are not raising rates due to market volatility is something the fed should be very wary of. She says she reduced her rate path for the fed funds rate from december to march. But says now the economy has shown considerable resilience. Recent inflation data, she says, has been somewhat encouraging and she expects wages to accelerate as the labor market tightens. She sees strength in Consumer Spending with strength in housing. Now, one curious line in here, she says i did not descend from the march decision as if somebody was asking her that question. As far as i know, brian, nobody asked her, but it makes me think that miss mester is not far from descenting if the fed does not move relatively soon here. I didnt steal the candy. Exactly. Im glad you see that. The line kind of sits out there, i did not dissent, as if somebody expected her to dissend, i sort of did. She felt a need to explain this to

Sort of like having to use not at can imagine that . If such an enormous Nuclear Program and have had for years. Then not taking part of such an important summit seems to be a myth. We would welcome russias constructive participation in all this but it has not affected our ability to advance the goals of our two countries. Let me give you come a couple other examples. The United States does work effectively with russia to secure some Nuclear Material that is in you pakistan. Obviously, uzbekistan. Is this iran by chance because i dont know much about that nuclear richard but i do know that the russians have worked effectively with the United States to safeguard that major you. I dont know its current status but its another example of how the United States and russia to Work Together even if its not in the context of the security summit.

So what is our objective and what is our tolerance for risk for terrorism . I dont we have a good handle on that. We get these emotional points right now where we react strongly and we take aggressive action. But what are the four by things we can do in counterterrorism over the ho
