on investors' minds is whether or not uh uh you know the companies are gonna deliver
voice-verified
earnings or or revenues that make the return on that investment uh you know the right number.

And so I guess you know what this tells you is that there is, you know, a a a sort of sensitivity that doesn't lurk too far under the surface to uh you know any headline that suggests uh the story might not be as positive as I guess uh you know earnings growth estimates and uh you know valuations in that sector might suggest.
voice-verified
Yeah.
voice-verified
