But anyway, you look at research.

I'll tell you what I think the biggest thing that has been lost that sucks, and it it's not actually research.

It's the fact that we don't have an IPO market anymore.

And my view at the time and now is that.

The more opportunities investors have, the better.

And early stage tech IPOs are highly risky.

Most of them end up going out of business, people lose their shirts, and so forth.

But I don't think that necessarily the job of the public market is to make it impossible for investors to lose their shirts.

I I think actually it is to create a range of options.

We had this amazing, you know, the public markets in the 1990s.

were terrific.

You could you you could raise a lot of money and so forth.

Now, by the time you go public,

The vast majority of the gains have already been grabbed by.

professional investors and so into you know smaller investors can't even get at 'em.

So I would say that I think the IPO market back then was better.

And I think the discipline of of company going public is good.
