I think might also happen, because we've experienced it, is that you understand the actual consequences gradually as you read through the facts, the supply chain consequences, the kind of raw materials that is critically important for a particular manufacturing.
I'll give you an example.
Helium, which transits through the Strait of Hormuz, is critically important for microchips.
Well, unless you figured that out, you're not certain that there will be instant or very relatively quick consequences on the cost of microchips because of the rarity that will result from not having available one of the raw materials.
And I think this is a crisis where we are learning almost bit by bit, day by day, what the actual consequences will be, what countries will be most affected, what of the commodities will be the most in demand.

It's a bit like driving.
You want to know the rules of the road before you get in the car.
It's the same with trade.
It's critically important that all people in the trade, both outside of the United States but also in the United States, have clarity about the future of the relationships.
