| 0:00.0 | I'm Jim Kramer, and you're about to hear a sample taken directly from today's |
| 0:06.5 | CBC Investing Club morning meeting. |
| 0:09.8 | I saw some stunning numbers about the, really, the lack of job creation in this market. |
| 0:15.5 | And immediately I thought, well, okay, we are in one of those moments where we're going to |

| 1:04.8 | they cut, but then the long end started going higher, and that kind of hurt the bullish view there. |
| 1:11.5 | We didn't get mortgage rates sustainably lower, but just given some of the recent weakness in labor, manufacturing, as you |
| 1:20.8 | pointed out on Sunday, maybe we see both ends coming down. |
