Welcome to Hanson McLean's Money Matters. I'm Scott Hanson.

I'm Pat McLean. Thanks for joining us this weekend.

That's right. Glad to have you with us last weekend of September. And with myself and my co-host,

we have with financial advisors. We spend our weekdays meeting with people like yourself.

Come here on the weekends to be your financial advisors on the air. And glad to be here today and talk

about financial matters. Brief briefly talk about what's

happening in the current state of the markets and the economy and of course a little bit of

volatility do you think it's back and you know it's funny i mean it's all over the board you look at

it one day the markets up 190 up 190, the next day it's down, 130. This

volatility in the marketplace. No one minds the volatility in the upside. We, everyone likes that.

Actually, I do. Oh, well, because you think long term, it doesn't, you know, you don't like

seeing prices go up without earnings going up.

What it tells you is emotions drive in the market.

The fundamentals have left the room.

Well, there's a bit of that.

But with the Dow at 17,000 roughly, it takes 170 points swing to have a one percentage point. But one percent is huge. It's a massive number. One percent is a massive, massive number on a daily basis.

One percent is a massive number. Well, considering the size of the market, yes, but it's not

atypical or abnormal. It's just that we've gone so long with such...

Without a pullback. Without a pullback.
