Summary
I find it inconceivable that we will not have up and down volatility at some point in the near future. But I am not surprised by this market's resilience. The forward-looking capabilities of the market are powerful, even though they are more often subject to excess. On the downside and the upside - no perfect equilibrium can ever be found. This is why market timing is the errand of a fool.
I hope and pray our society will find a forward-looking optimism, as well. That what is wrong in our country can be fixed by that which is right in our country. Believe it or not, even apart from all I care about on these pages regarding the markets and investment capital, it is to those greater ends that I work.

| 0:48.5 | And of course, those are you watching on video? |
| 0:51.6 | And so to the extent you have time to go to dividend cafe.com, not only |
| 0:55.6 | are there always the charts and visual aids, but there are going to be a number of |
| 1:00.4 | various market topics that just aren't going to be here on the podcast that I think you |
| 1:06.2 | might have an interest in. You know, the, I think right off the top, first of all, I'm recording with about |

| 1:18.7 | markets will have been closed for the week. And as of right now, we are up very close to |

| 1:29.9 | We're up about 900 points on the day here Friday. |
| 1:34.9 | And there's two pieces to that, okay? |
| 1:38.2 | A 900 point up day, an 800 point up week are significant events in any week, no matter what, whatever the context is. |
