0:00.0	It's going on out there. It's Wednesday, December 17th.
0:04.0	I'm Frank Curious. It's the Wall Street and Poppock. So I break that headline. And...
0:07.0	Tell you what's really moving these markets.
0:15.0	So I have a great interview for you today.
0:18.0	It's just one of the best technical analysts on Wall Street.
0:22.0	So someone you're probably seen on CNBC numerous times over a 20-year career.
0:26.3	Her name, her name, is Katie Stockton.

1:11.6	market over the last 20 years, what metrics she's using because she does happen to be a fantastic

1:25.2	months of the year. Spoiler alert, there's a few that are going to surprise you since she also covers exclusively.
