Good afternoon fellow investors and welcome back to Invest Talk.

Today's Tuesday, August 20, 2024. I'm Luke Herrera and I will be here with you for the next hour for another episode of this program.

And as with any other episode, any other day, I think it's important to remind ourselves that the markets are constantly changing all around us.

Economic changes, political changes, legislative changes, legislative changes,

and the markets are really good at processing those things

very quickly.

And maybe we can't process them as quickly as thousands of participants with trillions of dollars of volume.

But we still come here every day to do the work.

Because hopefully, I hope, Justin hopes, we both hope, we all at InvestDoc Hope that you leave here

every hour a better and more informed investor.

In order to accomplish that goal, that lofty goal, I would say,

we bring you a mixture of educational items,

actionable items, but most importantly, you bring something to the table for us and that is your finance and investment questions through your voicemail, through your YouTube comments through your live calls, hopefully, over this next hour.

Because I think that is the most important part of the hopefully over this next hour,

because I think that is the most important part of this show.
