| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Dividing Cafe weekly market commentary focused on dividends in your portfolio and dividends in your understanding of economic life. |
| 0:13.0 | Well, hello and welcome to the Monday edition of Dividendin Cafe. |
| 0:16.0 | It is a very special day because I am recording for the first time in our brand new, |
| 0:22.2 | beautiful offices on 6th Avenue here in New York City. It's really just been a very special day |
| 0:28.4 | for us. I know a lot of you don't care. I don't blame you. If you're just here to get the market |
| 0:33.1 | info, get the news, get the economic analysis, I can understand why you don't care where we go to work |
| 0:39.9 | every day. But for those who are clients and are a little bit more connected into the TBG family, |
| 0:46.0 | it's been a very special day and we're excited to be here in the written Divida Cafe. |
| 0:52.0 | We have some pictures and video link and things like that. |
| 0:55.9 | But if you're in the area in between 53rd and 54th Street, the whole city block there on 6th Avenue, |
| 1:03.4 | just a few blocks away from Central Park is our new home. |

| 1:14.5 | much longer than that. And in the meantime, the markets did not sleep for us to start our new day |
| 1:22.8 | in the new office. And in fact, it was another rally day across the board. All 11 sectors in the S&P 500 were up on |
| 1:30.8 | the day. The technology sector and communication services were the leader. And I think they were |
| 1:35.7 | exactly the same on the day. 1.44% for both. But the worst performing sector was consumer staples, not surprising, |
| 1:47.0 | a more defensive sector, and it was up 0.32%. The bond market was up a tiny bit. The 10 year was down. |
| 1:55.3 | The yield down 1.7 basis points to 3.87%. So you have lower interest rates, higher PE ratios, getting ready to |
| 2:06.0 | wrap up completely earning season, what ended up being a pretty solid earning season with a |
| 2:11.7 | little bit of hiccups in the middle. And the other element about the market right now is that the dollar had dropped and the market was down big at the beginning of August. |
| 2:22.9 | And now the dollar is dropped further and the market is up quite a bit. |
