) shares closed lower despite posting a second quarter earnings beat. The company counts some of the biggest names in tech as its clients.We've had four days in the bag here.Well, that's defensive.

That's why I wanna ask you because I remember we were talking about the green back and you had some advice when you see this rising dollar in terms of, you know, what you want to see as an investor, what you do want to see.So the US right now, you actually don't want to see the US as the best performing country in the world.You want, you want the tail wind to be at other countries.So that's why I'm saying the speed of the move matters.

So what I want people to pay attention to is right here, this is the time of year that the VIC tends to trend up and this is where we are right now.So my, my point is all of these tail winds that we had, they're becoming headwinds And so that's a little bit more caution that we have in the markets.
