We, you know, almost had a partial shutdown of the government over the clashes in Minneapolis.

So the things that feel separate from markets, separate from the economy can kind of steer into the economy.

And so you just have to be sort of I think I think investors and I think the investors have gotten used to this.

You have to be a little bit more ready to take in the news and do what's appropriate.

Right.

Nimble.

That's the word I was looking for.

That's perfect.

Sounds good.

Talk to you next week.

Brian Stewart, our director of news at Seeking Alpha, our first Wall Street Roundup of 2026.

Welcome back.

It's great to have you.

It's great to be talking again.

What have you got for us?

The world is on stage performing for us all in comedy and drama and horror.

What do you got for us?

Have you ever seen a time like this where it seems everything is priced in except for normalcy, quote unquote?

Any other stocks you would add to that conversation or tech-wise or sector-wise that you're seeing move?

Yeah, I've been talking to people that are in the job market and people that are kind of getting recruited by those data storage centers.
