lower inflation, but there very well could be a timing mismatch.
And that's why, again, I think it's important to note that, you know, although our base case is that inflation, if we get the situation in Iran stabilized, inflation probably stays at this level and trends lower, there's some uncertainty.

You know, capital investment targets have just gone higher, and we would expect them to remain higher, even going a bit higher from here.
