Inflation is low historically.

It's a little bit above the, you know, we have an official target of 2% inflation.

And it's, if you look at probably the better measures, it's more like 2.5.

And if you think that's really important, maybe you should

have a drink or two and calm down.

We're really in good shape.

This is about as good a moment as we've seen for a very, very long time.

And the question is, there's always

going to be something.

Some stuff happens, as the bumper stickers don't quite say.

And there's really two kinds of stuff that can happen.

One of them is politics.

And, you know, I'm reading whether there's now, it's possible that my president is about to impose 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico tonight, or then again, maybe not.

And that's a big deal.

And

We have a bunch of potential political shocks to the system.

I've just been doing some work.

And if you look at tech stock valuations, it really has that sort of end of 1999 feeling.

And are we going to be facing a sort of financial bubble burst?

It's, you know, and so they really calm good times never last.
