1
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:09,600
Speaker 1: Ifiko boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom ah

2
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 1: pies boom boom boom boom boom boom boom.

3
00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:17,160
Speaker 2: The newly elected president, even before he was sworn in,

4
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:22,599
Speaker 2: threatened to take over Greenland, recapture the Panama Canal, and

5
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 2: to make Canada the fifty first state. I'm Barry Riddolts,

6
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:29,600
Speaker 2: and on today's edition of At the Money, we're going

7
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:34,520
Speaker 2: to discuss whether the saber rattling has implications for your portfolio.

8
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 2: To help us understand all of this and its implications

9
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 2: for your portfolio, let's bring in Jeff Hirsh, editor in

10
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:45,920
Speaker 2: chief of Stock Trader's Almanac, an author of twenty eleven's

11
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,519
Speaker 2: super Boom, Why the Dow Jones will hit thirty eight

12
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 2: eight twenty and how you can profit from it and

13
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 2: full disclosure. Jeff wrote a piece I want to say

14
00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 2: it was like twenty ten, talking about the upcoming super

15
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 2: boom driven by the combination of war and inflation, and

16
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 2: basically said the data suggests we should hit thirty nine

17
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 2: thousand by twenty twenty five. And I called him out

18
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 2: on this nonsense. This is the single craziest thing I

19
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 2: had and by the time you and I finished that

20
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 2: conversation and you showed me that data was overwhelming. Not

21
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 2: only did I you convince me, but I wrote the

22
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,039
Speaker 2: forward to that book that ended up coming out in

23
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 2: twenty eleven. So let's discuss what war plus inflation means.

24
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 2: In the late nineteen seventies, your dad very famously said

25
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:44,040
Speaker 2: the combination of the Vietnam War and the oil embargo

26
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,680
Speaker 2: driven inflation was going to lead to a five hundred

27
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 2: percent bull market, which kind of shocked everybody when he

28
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 2: came out with it. But that analysis turned out to

29
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 2: be exactly right. Explain the thinking behind this.

30
00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, we've still got some of the old thirty four

31
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: to twenty T shirt. It's now thirty four to twenty

32
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 1: T shirts, But yeah, that's right. In seventy six, founder

33
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 1: of the Almanac, my late great father Yalehurst, discovered this

34
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:12,519
Speaker 1: amazing perennial pattern and how this phenomenon is based upon

35
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:16,360
Speaker 1: the exorbitant governance spending creates high inflation, and how the

36
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 1: subsequent decline of purchasing power of the dollar drives the

37
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 1: market to incredul this new heights. You yourself, you know,

38
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 1: were incredulous at the time. Cycles based on the previous

39
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 1: moves from from World War One, World War two, and Vietnam,

40
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:35,080
Speaker 1: which is what Yale was keying on and the associated

41
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 1: massive government spending and the inflation caused by it.

42
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:42,119
Speaker 2: And then the subsequent version that you were writing about

43
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 2: was Iraq and Afghanistan. And there was some surges of

44
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 2: inflation during the financial crisis kind of eased back when

45
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 2: when the FED took rates down to zero. Tell us

46
00:02:58,000 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 2: a little bit about what you were looking at in

47
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 2: ten that said, hey, we get to thirty nine thousand

48
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 2: in fifteen years.

49
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember, you know what, I remember your actual post.

50
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: I think the headline was WTF.

51
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 2: That's right, that's right. We were about ten thousand on

52
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 2: the Dow at that time. You were calling for going

53
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:20,239
Speaker 2: from ten to almost forty. It felt like it was ridiculous.

54
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 1: I mean, we had Yale's work behind us. That amazing

55
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 1: chart that that I redid of his where it shows

56
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 1: the you know, it's the log chart of the Dow

57
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,360
Speaker 1: which shows the inflation, the CPI and the moves.

58
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 3: I mean, there's there was some you.

59
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 1: Know, people talk about these cycles with you know, the

60
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 1: seventeen and a half year, the eighteen year sixty What

61
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 1: did they talk about these sort of arbitrary lengths of time.

62
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 1: We looked at it, and what Yale discovered was that

63
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 1: these events in history that create these these cycles, like

64
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 1: Archduke Ferdinand getting assassinated in nineteen fourteen, the Germany sign

65
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 1: of the Armistice in twenty eighteen, the Gulf of Tonkin

66
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: resolution in sixty four, Saigon falling into seventy five, and

67
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 1: then for us currently, what we were seeing, what we

68
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: were seeing at twenty ten was this development of after

69
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: nine to eleven, which was an act of war, and

70
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 1: ahead of the time we were looking, we had already

71
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 1: gone into to Afghanistan. We were the whole saber rattling.

72
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,479
Speaker 1: There was a bye bye vibe we put out in

73
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 1: twenty two when.

74
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 3: We in O two.

75
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,720
Speaker 1: Excuse me when we went in there, But we were

76
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: looking for the end of this huge military involvement overseas.

77
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,160
Speaker 1: US boots on the ground in massive numbers is what

78
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 1: created this pattern, or initially created it, and we were

79
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 1: looking for the end of the combat, you know, in Afghanistan,

80
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,160
Speaker 1: to sort of spark the end of the war, end

81
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 1: of the secular bear market, and the beginning.

82
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 3: Of the of the boom, and I think we.

83
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 1: All kind of have looked back little heinsins around twenty thirteen.

84
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 1: I think that little bear market bottom in fifteen and

85
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 1: sixteen kind of you know, signifies the end of that

86
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: secular bear not the ultimate bottom. I mean, we don't

87
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: measure the secular bear market from seventy four to two thousand,

88
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 1: measure eighty two.

89
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 2: Right, that was the new highs that were set, and

90
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 2: arguably this cycle new heis was set in twenty thirteen

91
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 2: that eclipsed seven and two thousand. So I recall early

92
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:27,119
Speaker 2: on in the COVID crisis and the first CARES Act,

93
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:31,280
Speaker 2: and I read a fascinating analysis that pointed out the

94
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:35,719
Speaker 2: fiscal stimulus of CARES Act one and two was about

95
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 2: ten percent of GDP. I think was just Kars Act

96
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 2: one about ten percent of GDP. You had to go

97
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 2: all the way back to World War II, and then

98
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 2: after that the Marshall Plan to see ten percent of

99
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 2: GDP as of fiscal stimulus, And I wonder how that

100
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:57,840
Speaker 2: equates to the equivalent of war plus the obvious subsequent

101
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 2: inflation we experienced in one twenty three is the quote

102
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 2: unquote war on COVID very parallel to what we've seen

103
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 2: in the past.

104
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 1: One hundred percent very parallel and and that's something we've

105
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: spoken about. And it's it's really about overall federal spending.

106
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,159
Speaker 1: I mean, the evolution of this pattern of federal spending.

107
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,679
Speaker 1: It's not just war but spikes like you just mentioned

108
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 1: in federal spending like we had in COVID where it

109
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 1: goes above trend. I mean this probably started to change

110
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,840
Speaker 1: a little bit going back to FDR with the New

111
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 1: Deal ahead of World War Two, and then the federal

112
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 1: highway you.

113
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,159
Speaker 2: Know, spending the state highway system.

114
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, that continued after World War Two. So it's it's

115
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 1: really about you know, past federal spending driven by war

116
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 1: conflicts and you know, but spending outside of the normal

117
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 1: budget and COVID and the you know, Inflation Reduction Act,

118
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,480
Speaker 1: the CARES Act are prime examples of massive government spending

119
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 1: driving inflation and superbooms.

120
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:01,280
Speaker 2: So it's a new era, it's a new presidency. There

121
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 2: has been emphasis on things like military spending, energy production,

122
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 2: spacel like exploration. Uh, they're carrying over the previous emphasis

123
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 2: on AI and data center builds. How do you look

124
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 2: at that? How does federal policy and spending in those

125
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 2: areas seem parallel to pass military spendings. How does that

126
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 2: affect your projections?

127
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: I mean it's quite parallel, but it's part of my projections.

128
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 1: I mean, we've updated our super forecast. I think we've

129
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 1: got some further upside to you know, sixty two thousand

130
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: and change, which I've written about probably by you know,

131
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 1: average ten percent game of year, probably by twenty thirty.

132
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: And that's all now based because it was what starts on.

133
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 1: But right now, you know, it's about tech. It's all

134
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 1: about tech. Ukraine and Israel have shown us and proven

135
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 1: that the conflict is all about tech. Now, got drones

136
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 1: and cyber wars. You know, i'd expect the US military

137
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: to be spending and ramping up tech. So all that

138
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 1: military spending you may find its way into technology. I mean,

139
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 1: let's call it defense tech.

140
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 2: And you see that in companies like Pallenteer and Lockheed

141
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 2: not just drones but single jamming and there's just an endless.

142
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 3: Array of security.

143
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's clearly causing a big boom and fiscal spending.

144
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 2: But let's bring this back to the newly elected president Trump. Canada, Greenland, Panama, Canada.

145
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 2: I keep I can't believe we're talking about Canada take off,

146
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 2: so that sort of saber rattling. Do you need a

147
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 2: hot war for the same thing to take effect or

148
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 2: do you just need the government's fiscal spending and the

149
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 2: threat of war to lead this to the same sort

150
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 2: of cycle.

151
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,199
Speaker 1: I think it's not so much the threat of war.

152
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 1: It's overall federal spending and you know, saber rattling. Yet

153
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 1: it's saber rattling. You know, I'm not convinced anything is

154
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,439
Speaker 1: going to happen there per se, But it's really about

155
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 1: the spending in general. And if we're going to be

156
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:15,719
Speaker 1: doing deals with Greenland, UH for security and raw materials

157
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 1: that would be beneficial. We've got you know, China doing

158
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 1: deals in Africa and around the world. There's there's there's

159
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 1: definitely a new push for for global you know, security

160
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 1: and global dominance, and we've got to play in that field.

161
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 1: And and Trump's kind of showing doing a show of strength,

162
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,440
Speaker 1: but he's a deal maker. Whether you know you like

163
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 1: the man or not, or voted for him or not,

164
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 1: He's going to try to do everything in his power

165
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 1: to leave a legacy, like we spoke about previously, of

166
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 1: you know, a prosperous economy, a raging bull market, and

167
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 1: you know, global peace and security is what he's going

168
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 1: to try to do, and that's going to help our economy.

169
00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 1: All the spending, whether it's stargate or military otherwise, is

170
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:06,439
Speaker 1: going to create jobs and keep the economy going. I mean, uh,

171
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 1: it's really all about the economy, is Jim Carvel likes

172
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 1: to say.

173
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 2: It's the economy stupid? Of course. So so let's look

174
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 2: at sectors. We've mentioned defense, what about energy? What about

175
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 2: consumer staples? Is there any specific sector effect to this

176
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,959
Speaker 2: warplus inflation long term cycle.

177
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 3: I think it's tech. I really think it's too tech.

178
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 1: I mean you're talking about uh, you know, drones, robotics,

179
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 1: AI energy for sure, because we've got to power everything.

180
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 1: I actually currently have a position in the gas and energy. Uh,

181
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: you know, explorers and producers, the the equipment people there,

182
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,199
Speaker 1: the x C S XOLE is the seasonal trading for

183
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:50,839
Speaker 1: us as well.

184
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:52,119
Speaker 3: I'm not sure.

185
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 1: Staples is the uh the place to be, but you know, uh,

186
00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 1: general retail and buying a thing is up. But I

187
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 1: think energy and tech and all this new technology that

188
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 1: is that we're fighting wars with that we're operating everything

189
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:09,560
Speaker 1: on is where it's at.

190
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 3: I mean, you got to own the cues basically.

191
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:17,079
Speaker 2: Right the cues. There's a black rock ETF run by

192
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 2: the guy who's run their technology group for a long time.

193
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 2: I want to say it's their Artificial intelligence ETF. The

194
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 2: symbol is b AI, and I don't know, some crazy

195
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 2: chunk of it is in Nvidia, Microsoft and then everybody

196
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,079
Speaker 2: else in that space. And it's sort of like a

197
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 2: cues on steroids. It's like two XQUS.

198
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 3: And then there's the healthcare AI.

199
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 1: We just heard you know, Allman and Ellison talking about it,

200
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 1: you know, in the White House with Trump there.

201
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 3: It's hopefully it'll help.

202
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:50,079
Speaker 2: Us Sam Allman from Open AI and Larry Ellison from Oracle.

203
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:54,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, how we could cure cancer and do disease analysis.

204
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 1: There's a small microcapstock I have that's trying to do

205
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 1: medical you know AI to better diagnose and get you

206
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 1: better proper treatments and identify things with all your numbers.

207
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 3: You know.

208
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 1: Medical data, as you know is still analog huge, but

209
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 1: it's not quite digitized enough yet.

210
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 3: So that's I think there's some future there.

211
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 1: So add that to the list of technologies is you

212
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 1: know medical and healthcare AI.

213
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 2: So to wrap up, we have a massive shift from

214
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:27,559
Speaker 2: just monetary policy in the twenty tens following the financial

215
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 2: crisis to the COVID spend, the military build up, the

216
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:36,440
Speaker 2: AI build up, the energy build up. These are all

217
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 2: policies and sectors of the economy that have been running

218
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 2: fairly hot for the past five or so years. The

219
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 2: new administration is expected to really supercharge this and if

220
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,560
Speaker 2: historical patterns hold up, according to Jeff Hearst of This

221
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:56,440
Speaker 2: Stock Trader's Almanac, we could see this market continuing to

222
00:12:56,600 --> 00:13:00,040
Speaker 2: rally for the rest of the decade, somewhere in the

223
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:04,079
Speaker 2: high single digits, low double digits. If is that a

224
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,040
Speaker 2: fair way to describe your perspective?

225
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 3: For sure?

226
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: Think about AI and all the related tech, about where

227
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 1: we were in like ninety two to ninety five with

228
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 1: Windows ninety.

229
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 2: Five, right, you know, early Internet days.

230
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 3: Early Internet days.

231
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 1: Look, my view is that we're kind of at that

232
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 1: period of time in this technological boom. I remember the

233
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 1: other part of the supermom equation that I added to it,

234
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,960
Speaker 1: on top of warrant inflation and peace was the culturally

235
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 1: enabling paradigm shifting technology which AI and all of its

236
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 1: related ancillary items that we that we spoke about are

237
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 1: part of and I think we're at that, you know,

238
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: early mid nineties timeframe.

239
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,319
Speaker 2: So to wrap up, if you're a long term investor

240
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 2: and you are constructive about both the economy and the market,

241
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,679
Speaker 2: you should be looking at sectors like defense and energy

242
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 2: and technology, and you should not be surprised that the

243
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 2: current BOOL market might have a whole lot further to run.

244
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:06,960
