fair market. we had that in june, we bounce out of that, but now that inflation is still persistently high. the federal reserve is going to raise interest rates probably three quarters of a percent. investors don t like that at all. the stocks keep selling off. the average market is about 34% down, so we re not there yet. it lasts about 300 days, we are not in a bear market yet. but we could enter one and it could last for a while. you have to brace yourself for this because the stock market is a predictor of future profitability. investors don t have a lot of confidence right now. fans are trying to stave off inflation by raising interest rates, everyone is worried that in doing so they may trigger a recession. a great deal of uncertainty. thank you for making clear to us, we always appreciate it. caleb is the editor at investment media. we are back after the break. a democracy gone. they have a new name as a rule of law continues to backslide in his country. this is velshi. velshi
