0:05.1 | Welcome to the Ken Rackery Show. I'm your host, DeNeal, here with Ken. |
0:08.4 | So this is one of the craziest mass migrations that we have seen in the U.S. |
0:13.1 | and it's going to provide some of the best investment opportunities that we've seen in a long time. |
0:18.6 | So we're going to jump into that today, but first we wanted to |
