Well, we're not in overtime quite yet, but nonetheless, Brian, thank you very much. Welcome to Closing Bell. I'm Scott Wobner live from Post 9 here at the New York Stock Exchange. This make-or-break hour begins with stocks trying for another positive finish. We're going to track the action right into the end of the session, but there's the scorecard with 60 to go in regulation. We're working on it. The Russell's doing a pretty good job. The other majors, they got a little work to do. S&P's barely negative. The NASDAQ down one half of 1%. Dow's gone positive. As you see, sectors are mostly split. Energy, not surprisingly, is the outperformer today. It's good for about 2%. Oil prices are up again, so that's exactly what you would expect to see.

About 4% rise on WTI above 90. There's private credit. Those names under the microscope lately as well.

Aries limiting withdrawals in one of its funds today. We're going to ask Marathons, Bruce Richards,

where all of this is heading when he joins me in just a little bit. Elsewhere, chip equipment

names, they're higher again. So is Apple. And so are several of the AI power names. And we're

watching those closely today, too. It does take us to our talk of the tape. Whether the president's

social media post yesterday has put a bottom in this market.

Let's ask so far as Liz Thomas.

She's with me here at Post 9.

You say not so fast.

Don't buy the dip.

This could get worse before it gets better.

What about that, though, the so-called Trump put of yesterday morning?

And then the comments that he was just making

in the Oval, trying to once again put a pretty good message behind what's happening over

in the Middle East.

I didn't hear anything in the comments that the straight is open.

So the supply shock remains.

And if it really was over, we wouldn't have the supply shock anymore and everything that had already pressured markets.

And actually, the market reaction since the comments we just heard has been benign.

I mean, Brent's still above 100.

It's at 104 and rising since that conversation ended.
