And now today's podcast.

Good afternoon fellow investors and welcome to Invest Talk. This is our January 6th

2020 edition of Invest Talk so I welcome you to a new year, a new decade, and throughout

the past year, Steve and I have spent a good deal of time here on Invest Talk helping you and your investment strategies align with your

risk tolerance and your performance objectives. Now we all want to make as much

as we possibly can but you need to do that within reason and hopefully we are helping you develop strategies that align with that reason.

That reason is your particular risk tolerance your ability and

willingness to take risk and for those of you that have told your friends and

family members about Invest Talk and its downloadable podcast.

We thank you going into this new year, exciting new year, citing new decade.

And going into the new decade, our podcast downloads now average approximately 450,000 downloads every single month.

And that's added up to over, close to, we're approaching 20 million downloads, about 19.5 million in the history of

Invest Talks. We thank you for your loyal support. Now we've all seen the

latest meat east news, the markets have reacted, in a lot of ways, kind of with not a whole lot of reaction.

I mean gold's gone up a little bit, you know, the market's kind of backed and filled over the past few

trading days, and it's tough to really hash out exactly where this market is going in relation to those.

You know, are we going into war, is this going to escalate or de-escalate?

And you know, my thoughts are in general you have to look at the past and the

passes they de-escalate typically so that is a good thing hopefully hopefully

hopefully we don't get a war I don't like anybody really wants a war
