The Michael Dairy Show is on the air.

Yeah. The Michael Very Show is of the newsletters I read of the newsletters I read that comes out of the Wall Street Journal called Hurt on the Street. A woman named Carol Ryan had written about warehouses.

And the headline was stocking up on warehouses.

1:04.5

And I thought what it was going to say, what I expected it to say, was warehouse stocks are up because I knew, I've been told, that companies who import a lot, who are scared of the tariffs,
