Investors wanting to make sure. It is a shortened week so some traders might be taking off after all of the action earlier this year. David it has been exhausting for traders. He mentioned we had the best quarter last year. You mentioned. That might not be good news because i saw a note from you that said historic as we go back to big shift in the market and there is a recast in the bottom. Recast sixere was a or seven months after the 1929 low. A similar situation in the mid1970s. In 2000 there were several that went lower. 1987, the longterm is as of 2008. All of history does suggest that there is some sort of a significant testing of the s p 500 lows. There are also some options that i talk about saying that there are signs of that coming.

The index starting july back above that support line. I want to talk about longterm ipo performance for this year. As you mentioned, dun and bradstreet returning to the Public Markets today rallying 17 after raising 1. 72 billion. The other large offerings, warner music and zoom into technology which is up more than 100 . E a nice day for dun and bradstreet. The jobs
Maybe we will hear from secretary pompeo. E had the New York Times story about Chinese Students in america, but i agree with you, it is incredibly fluid. We spoke with lord patton about an hour ago, and he was deeply emotional about this moment. What am imagining is he was the last governor of hong kong before it was headed over in 1997, and i am trying to understand what he thinks foreign governments should do at this point. We will be talking about the special trading status over the next few hours. I just wonder whether it makes a difference whether you whether the United States rescinds. Clearly thatvery the Trump Administration cant do this alone. There has to be a developed economy and developed politics , with 2047 being slammed forward to where we are now. Jonathan 90 minutes away, jobless claims this thursday morning, which means we got to look at some ugly jobs data. Lisa and one thing i have been noting is that the pessimism we are seeing in the Economic Data contrasts compl
