We said yesterday, so NVIDIA, so the market, so the market follows NVIDIA higher. But we're up 1.7%, the NASDAQ 100 a breath. of relief when it comes to ai anxieties instead those are quelled a bit ed and not enough even to be shaking off some of the anxiety that comes with the jobs report that maybe maybe we could see a december rate cut we built up a little bit the bond market pricing in now 35 chance of a rate cup come december but really all eyes on this ai trade today

We should start, that's the most important thing that she said. She also said that effectively China is a very important market to us. It's very important to United States.
