Or residents of San Francisco have been trying to address relative to a huge amount of homelessness on our streets that has been exacerbated by the covid19 crisis. The floor, supervisor fewer, is yours. Supervisor hello . Supervisor, you are muted. Supervisor fewer . Supervisor i would like to note that director pennick is also joining us for a comment. Thank you, chair peskin, for scheduling this item. I would like to provide some background on why i introduced this legislation. While San Francisco has shown leadership and responded quickly to covid19, the city has struggled to respond to the publics needs of the atrisk population this threatens our ability to lift the shelter in place order and jeopardizes the Public Safety of everyone. And Public Health safety of everyone. And the mayor previously stated a goal of procuring 7,000 hotel rooms and the board passed legislation to acquire even more, but the city is falling short of the goals on both counts. As of this morning only 1,991
In the mission, 22 residents tested positive for the multiple requests and it took six days to get everyone tested. We dont want to see this happen again. So having said this, at the heart of this matter for me is the basic idea of taking care of people. Constituents who are living in dangerous situation and bottom lines, and being our sisters and brothers keepers.

They still need people to come into the store to really make a lot of money. Their comp sales were up by over 10 , if you backout fuel. Clearly a lot of stocking up. Clearly good for walmart. Kohls suspended its Share Buyback program. That stock now off by about 1 in the premarket. Overall, no doubt we are obviously going to take a bit of a pause as we digest earnings and that monster rally. The question is whether the new was that or a bear market rally. Is that really being reflected in equities . We need the Economic Data to really match. Lets get to the news from overseas, as well as here in the u. S. We want to start with the walmart numbers and look ahead to fit your jay powell. Michael mckee has more. Just in case we werent sure that people were hoarding toilet paper, we get walmart. Michael
