And is it as simple as it being that inflation and the rate increases that we saw that followed

Or is there an additional point that there were signs even before that of excess valuation in the marketplace?

I think the meme stock aspect in particular, I guess, is what I'm getting at.

Could we have all stepped back with hindsight and observed, yeah, these stocks aren't making money and they're doubling in short space of time?

It's interesting, those snapshots, because again, I was doing CNBC at the time, and our ratings spiked during that moment, because as you said, people didn't have much else to do.

So I think it was...

linked in to, as you're saying, the attention turning towards the markets.

Everything was closed but the markets.

Yeah, exactly.

No, but I think why I wanted to start here, and we'll come to it in a moment, is whether you see the same similarities today, but it's why it's so interesting you kind of point to the stimulus checks and then the rates going up because that doesn't perhaps apply today.

Before getting to that, though, I mean, the other thing I think it's fair to say, and I've seen you talk about this,

that your clients, perhaps more than any others, partly because of your skew to retail clients, and so many of our guests have talked about this in recent weeks, that this smart money versus dumb money, I think a lot of people now see the retail clients as the smart money.

That's right, yeah.

I've always felt that.

And that they have bought the dips successfully, whether it was October 2022, whether it was April 25, March 2026.

Is that still a trend that you see, Dior?

Do your clients still seemingly know more than the rest of us and buy when things are cheap?

I wanted to then touch specifically on your company during that period of time.

As I said, you IPO'd July 2021.

Clearly, then the market had a really tough period shortly after that.
