Yeah. With probably very, very good information. Yeah. Yeah. So there's that going on. That's not luck. No. Would you want to step into that? I mean, would you follow it? Maybe. That might not be so dumb. Right? That could be like, look, I don't know what's going on, but I know that that guy does. That's... It's not an even playing field right now. It is not.

And so this isn't the time if you don't if you don't use options, this isn't the time to start trying them out. But I do. I think it's a good tool to have sort of in your, you know, your toolbox to be able to express. You can a long bet. Right. You want to know the name. But let's say there's a lot of risk.
