Speaker 3: of confidence in a market that's been over rotating on

15
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,840
Speaker 3: AI headlines, which we already know. Software has been very

16
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 3: sensitive to anything in AI related trading, and so yeah,

17
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 3: it brought at least a little bit of positivity to

18
00:00:57,760 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 3: the software space.

19
00:00:58,360 --> 00:00:59,880

Speaker 1: Hate to be a bummer, but right, but that's that's.

22
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 4: The AI question or the AI story is like, what's

23
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 4: the effect of you know AI, of the AI revolution

24
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 4: on a software company like Palo Alton.

25
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: And their infrastructure, their security, their you know, data applicate.

26
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:21,959
Speaker 1: Like yeah, so that's they're in the nitty gritty of it,

27
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 1: but you know, plays into that whole bigger picture where

28
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 1: shall we go next.

29
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,319
Speaker 3: Cisco ticker s y Y fell fifteen percent at the

30
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 3: closing BIL for its worst one day drop since twenty twenty.

31
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,679
Speaker 3: That's after the food distributor said that it plans to

32
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 3: acquire Jetro restaurant depot for about twenty nine billion dollars.

33
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:42,199
Speaker 3: Important to note that investors were not really happy about

34
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 3: how much debt was related to this deal. They're planning

35
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 3: to raise about twenty one billion dollars in debt to

36
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 3: fund the acquisition. Definitely is a lot, and the deal

37
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 3: will create one of the largest food distributors in the country.

38
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 3: But Wells Fargo is writing that they believe it's overdion.

39
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,400

Speaker 4: thirty three point one billion dollars for thirty three point

43
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 4: two billion dollars for Cisco Corporation. So this is a

44
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 4: pretty big acquisition.

45
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 1: Is there no anti trust concerns? Because these are two

46
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,919
Speaker 1: big companies like getting together. And I'm not quite sure

47
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 1: who else plays in the space because they do it

48
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: for rest. Really they do it airlines like lots of

49
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:27,119
Speaker 1: different things.

50
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:27,800

Speaker 3: Restaurants, Yeah, random grocery stores, you know, et cetera. Very

52
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,680

53
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 3: wasn't really mentioned in notes, but I would also be

54
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 3: something I would ask as well.

55
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 1: I didn't see it anywhere either, so it's kind of

56

Speaker 1: like when we're work and we're traveling together, Well, like

62
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 1: gott to get some food before we get on the plane.

63
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 4: Sometimes sometimes I'll get the food.

64
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 1: No, you always will buy a meal like inhale it,

65
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 1: eat it, and then we get on the plane and

66
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,520

Speaker 1: they say, donat on an airplane, you're gulping air and

71
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 1: it creates tummy shoes and things.

72
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 4: I'm not doing that. That's not what I'm thinking. I'm

73
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:25,639
Speaker 4: thinking it's just the sodium content in that food. I'm

74
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,079
Speaker 4: always so thirsty after and I'm like, yeah, it's so

75

85
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,760

86
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 3: Ackman called them stupidly cheap in a post on x

87
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 3: We already know. Once he says something about those stocks,

88
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 3: they tend to go up quite a bit. Keep in mind,

89
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 3: both of these trade, you know, over the counter, so

90
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 3: they're often quite volatile, but still a big move and

91
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 3: he owns them.

92
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:16,280

00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 1: I think he was as of last year. Wasn't he

94
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,279
Speaker 1: like the biggest shareholder or something like that in these names.

95
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: I'm just pulling it up here.

96
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, Pershing Square in Fanny May, he's the number of

97
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,520

Speaker 1: Single biggest private sector shareholder of the two companies at

99
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 1: the end of last year. Yeah. Okay, it's good stuff though,

100
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 1: but big moves, right, you definitely saw them. She still
