| 0:00.0 | Brian Stewart, Director of News at Seeking Alpha. |
| 0:13.1 | Welcome back to Wall Street Breakfast. |
| 0:14.9 | Great to have you as always. |
| 0:16.2 | Thank you. |
| 0:16.6 | Great to be here. |
| 0:17.4 | I suppose the obvious place to start is AI, Deepseek. Yeah, I don't think you can |
