Ladies and gentlemen, without any further ado, allow me to introduce our next session, a fireside chat on improving your mobile app experiences by putting the customers at the heart of the product. Excited to have Mr. Vipul Chawla, President of Pizza Hut International, Yum Brand and Mr. Naval Ahuja, co-founder exchange for media for this. Mr. Chawla has 28 years of experience leading 45% of the company throughout the world. His last 15 years have spanned global roles based out of the UK, Singapore, USA, covering packaged consumer goods and global brands, which are market leaders in their categories across personal care, home care and food and restaurant retail. Mr. Chawla, we're cool to have you here and Mr. Ahuja, the flaws all yours. Thank you so much, Pallavi. Thank you Mr. Chawla for joining us. It's good to see you. I remember last year or the year before, it was 2019, you were at our mobile marketing event where we met a lot of your, you know, alumni, if I can call it from Hindustan Unilever. It's good to see you and I hope the pandemic is behind us very soon and we are able to again meet in person. With that, let me come to, you know, the sort of discussion at hand today. Before I get into mobile and how the mobile ecosystem has significantly impacted what brands are doing today, let me ask you a few questions, larger questions about what's happening in the business space, how companies like yours have, you know, adapted to the pandemic, what's happened in the last few years.  You are an industry which in some ways has seen a significant business uptake because of the pandemic. Right. And technology today has changed or impacted touch businesses at so-called multiple points. You know, food tech as we call it is a term which was coined much before the pandemic. Food was one of the businesses which technology started impacted much before the pandemic. But obviously things have, you know, really taken off during the pandemic. Tell us a few things, a few interesting things that have happened in the last 18 months with Pizza Hut, with Yum Brands because of the pandemic and also because of the continuing change that technology was ushering in. So first of all, good morning, good evening, now it is wonderful to see you again. I wish we were doing this in person. I had so much fun the last time I was there, meeting you and Dr. Bhattra and so many good friends. So thank you for having me. I was listening in a few minutes ago and before I start, I'm just continuously struck by the quality of talent and the level of innovation going on in my home country where the heart still is. So just congratulations to everybody who's always called for the tremendous progress that the country is making. And of course, you know, well wishes for safety and good health. It's been a very challenging last 12, 18 months in India, you know, many of us have experienced it personally, but just prayers and wishes for good health. Specifically to your question, yes, I think, you know, the pandemic has in many ways we think obviously been had devastating for so many of us, including our frontline staff, but has also validated many trends that we already saw coming, one of which of course was the use of digital in the way in which we interact with our brands. A simple example I can talk about is, you know, the one the division I work on, which is Pizza Hut. In January of last year, Pizza Hut International had about 20% of its total business online. And imagine that you have about half your business globally, which is dying in restaurants and half, which is let's say delivery and carry out. But so it was a fifth of it was online. As of last month, 55% of our total businesses online. And so, you know, we have seen a tremendous shift and this is a global shift that our countries in the world like the UK and Japan, where 80% of our businesses online, Singapore is 70%, China 65, 70% Australia 75%. And so that is a very significant shift. And therefore you start thinking of your brand in the way in which it interacts with your customers as a digital first brand. And imagine just 18, 24 months ago, we would still be thinking of it as a restaurant brand where people come in and you see them and so on and so forth. Now imagine using that framework and trying to apply it to the digital ecosystem requires quite a shift. And I will talk briefly in a couple of minutes on how and why that happened, but we've seen that seismic shift in the last, you know, 70 months. But before I talk about that, I want to talk about people and culture. I think the reason why we were able to, you know, emerge stronger and that's the thing we use was that we start with our people. We look after our people, they look after our customers, the business takes care of itself. It's really as simple as that. And therefore making sure that we had safe and hygienic practices in our, you know, assets across the world, where we were masked well before anyone asked us to we were, you know, doing temperature checks. In fact, in countries like China, we were actually putting the temperature of the team that has prepared the product on the invoice so that the customer could see that look, you know, people are saying, so we had, we did a number of things. And the thing is that the customer experience will never exceed that of a team member. So if the team member is operating in a safe and hygienic environment and feels that, you know, you can be trusted, the customer will believe that the brand is trusted. It's not surprising that in countries like India, the Britsahar brand is number one on trust, years and years on a trot, 10 years on a trot and become even stronger in the last 12 to 18 months, despite the pandemic.  And that's how we believe we've been able to pivot in the last 18 months. And we think we're actually emerging stronger as a brand. I don't know if I answered your question and if you want to dig a little deeper on any of the areas. Yeah, I mean, it's amazing how some of the companies like you mentioned 20 months back, you were looking at yourself, a lot of management energy would be spent on, you know, focusing on how to improve the dining experience. And certainly here you are not even looking at, you know, dining. Dining will of course come back, but you know, that's kind of taken a back seat because of the pandemic. Tell us, people, you've been leading, you've been part of this company for a while and you've been leading Pizza Hut now first in APAC and now across many countries in the world. As a leader, as a CEO, what is the key change in, you know, how the pandemic has changed the role of a leader and a CEO? And the pandemic has also impacted, you know, after all, CEOs are also humans. And it also impacts you as a, at a personal level, your colleagues, your family members, your friends, extended family. But if you look at what's happened to the, you know, corner office, how do you see the role of the corner office changing as we come out of this pandemic? That's a great question. You know, first of all, just the physical corner office became the home office. For example, I'm taking this call from my home office. So, and that is a, while it may sound like a lighthearted comment, but the sheer act of, you know, every morning getting up and driving to work or taking a flight, you know, I mean, prior to the pandemic, I was traveling 170 days a year. It was just natural for me to rock up at the airport and head out to our country and come back a week later. That just stopped. So I think just the way in which we worked has changed quite significantly. And I think some of these changes are lasting. Now, some obviously will come back, travel will restart at some time, offices are restarting hybrid ways of working. But the first thing that I think it taught us, all of us as leaders, you know, you know, huge leadership roles only on the call are doing huge roles is just the sheer level of flexibility in the way in which we look at conventional models of working and therefore the future of work, the hybrid model of working is something which we may have even debated a few years ago, but we're now taking that as a given. And one of the things I'd like to put to you is that even when we return back to 100% normalcy, which maybe you can take a guess six months, a year, two years away, whatever it might be, changes like the hybrid way of working are probably now permanent. I think there's no longer an expectation that everybody's going to come to office five days a week. I think that has just changed. And therefore the concept of hybrid working and remote working, I think is upon us. Now, am I saying we're all going to shut up physical officers? No, we're not. Companies like Twitter have already announced that they will, but you know, that's different. So I think that level of empathy and understanding that we can work in a somewhat different tone and manner is very clear. And that's upon us. And I think that's something all of us as leaders have learned. I'm sure you've looked at it, we've looked at it. We'd also assume that we need to be physically in the same space for us to collaborate, right? And therefore, offices were built as collaboration spaces. And we're now realizing that that can be done remotely. And frankly, what it doesn't allow us to do is to collaborate remotely with a lot more different cultures, which is very powerful. If you can work through the time zones. And I think there's a virtue in that. And the benefit of that is it can be more inclusive. I'll give you a simple example. We hold an annual marketing conference in Dallas once a year. We're about 400, 400 people, 300 people fly in from across the world, spend a week talking about their marketing plans and what they're learning. That's the usual way we've done it for 25 years. That's the only way it's called the MPM, the marketing planning meeting. Obviously, we couldn't fly people around last year. So the first time we did it online. We did a forum like this, where 1500 people dialed in. Firstly, we were surprised that 1500 people actually dialed into a 4D meeting, right? Which is, now obviously we have to put in the timings. We had to all get up in Dallas at like 4 in the morning and do it from 5 to 11, because then the rest of the work would part switch, so some of us had to just change that clock a little bit, but find that works. But the benefit of that was it became a far more federal meeting. Meaning, in the past, you had 400 really senior executives who could fly to Dallas and spend a week and spend, you know, $25,000 each, traveling up and down in hotels and flights. Now you could have 1500 people dialing in from all over the world. And when I did a back check with my colleagues across the world, there's so many young executives who said we would have had to grow to a much more senior level in the organization for us to be able to participate in meetings like this. Now we can, sitting out in outer Mongolia and Ulaan Batar or in Auckland or in Singapore or Mumbai and Delhi or whatever it is, participate in this meeting in the same level that anybody else does, which I think is, I want to use that as one simple example of one of the benefits of how COVID, and unfortunately all the circumstances have given us the mind space to think far more liberally in the way in which we approach work and in the way in which we approach interaction. Look at this meeting. I would have loved to fly to Mumbai for this or Delhi or wherever you were gonna do it, but here we are again. We can debate how effective this is, I will find out, but it certainly does not stop us from having the interaction. We would never thought about it or doing it like this three or four years ago. Yeah, I think the hybrid model is also for good or bad here to stay. And dare I say, I think on balance, it'll be good overall for companies, for people to interact with each other. And a very important point you made, how technology, how this hybrid system makes things very democratic, allows opportunity for participation and allows opportunity for more learning, hence allows participation opportunity for getting into the thick of things. So a democratic ecosystem in an organization on the balance is good. Let me come to some of the interesting things that we've seen during the pandemic and how the nature of the business has changed. And again, Yum Pizza Hut is a great example of a brand which was so focused on dining experiences, now adapting itself entirely to technology. In India, I was reading some reports, it said you double your sales in the quarter before the last. And I presume, I could not find specific numbers, I presume a large part of those sales came from online deliveries because restaurants were shut, they were curfews in large parts of the country at that time, this is the April, June quarter we are talking. Brands that have been built over decades with very clear specific purpose in mind.  What happens to that purpose that you so laboriously worked to craft in the customer's mind all these years and suddenly pandemic happens, the ground beneath your feet suddenly shifts. What happens to the purpose of the brand? Where does that go away? That's great, what a great question that is. And again, many of us have been forced to reflect on this. Again, in the way we look at our business models, you're on the same stage, but let me talk briefly about how we looked at it in Pizza Hut and the journey we're on, and the journey is by no means complete. In the middle of that journey, and we suppose, but what are we doing at Pizza Hut? We're saying, we love pizza and we want to share it with the world. So everything we do, we do for the love of pizza. We want to make great pizzas, we want to have great experiences, we want to make sure we have great local tastes and adaptations, we want to give it to you on time, and we want to make that evening or that afternoon or that interaction really special, whether you do it at a restaurant in our stores or whether we do it delivered to your home or wherever you are, okay? So everything that we do, we do for the love of pizza. Our restaurant designs, you'll see that on our pizza boxes. We love pizza, I want to share it with the world, right? One of the things that we had to change was that the perception of the brand was that we are a restaurant. So if you want to access Pizza Hut, you have to go to a restaurant. You have to go there with your family or your kids or for that first date or for after that, you know, good exam result or whatever it is, and you go there and you get ushered to your seat and you get served a great experience of food and all the other stuff. But we realized that more and more customers were experiencing our product off-premise and therefore we started this campaign a couple of years ago around now that's delivering, which is to say that we deliver pizza to you wherever you may be and we started that campaign in the UK three or four years ago and we're rolling up across the world. Obviously, enabling the digital system which has made the digital sign of our business so huge. But specifically talking about purpose, we also asked ourselves that is there a purpose we can associate with our brand which is just a little bigger? than pizzas and food. And some of the events that happened in the US last year around inequality, which came to a head like the Florida incident and so on. And we were seeing that inequality in some ways became a more, far more heightened issue during the last 18 to 24 months because some people had access and some people did not. So we asked ourselves, what could our purpose for Pizza Hut be? And we came back with the idea that at Pizza Hut we will serve an equal slice to everyone. So the simplest articulation of our purpose is that we will serve an equal slice to everyone.  You may have two of them, okay, equal slice. But the articulation and expression of that is for example, in the UK, we are now giving access to underprivileged franchises of color and giving their resources to enter our brand and become franchise partners through the Hatch partnership. We're doing the same in Canada for underrepresented minorities, blacks, Hispanics and others, people of color. In Sri Lanka, which is an example I'm really excited about, our brilliant team there has opened a number of stores where the entire team member is differently able. So they are speech and hearing impaired. So imagine you walk into a store where every team member is speech and hearing impaired and you're getting service there, you're getting full service. Now interestingly in Sri Lanka, those stores are the stores with the best operating metrics in the country. We have the same, we have now similar stores in Delhi. So an equal slice for everyone is now spreading itself across many parts of the world because we are giving people of different capabilities, different financial access, different physical access, access to our brand so that they can help support that brand and grow it. And every time we open a store, we give employment to 30, 40 people. So on an average, we open 5, 600 stores a year. So we give employment to 30,000 people additional every year over and above the 250,000 that we have already. So we're doing a bunch of things around, we love pizza, I want to share it with the world and an equal slice for everyone. And that's how we're building our purpose as we go forward. Brilliant, I mean that's a fantastic example. I saw your latest campaign in India, talks about delivery Dil Khulke, if I've got it right. It's about sharing love, happiness with everybody and Pizza Hut being at the forefront of sharing food and sharing it in an open-hearted manner. And that's a fantastic positioning for a campaign. Let me talk about a larger question and ask you as the CEO of a large corporation. Things in the boardroom move at a very fast pace. CEOs and shareholders, board members focus a lot on quarterly results. So how do you keep your eye on that purpose because when you have to deliver results every three months and focus a lot on tactical stuff, what happens to that purpose that you've built assiduously over years? How do you find the balance? If there is a CMO in your company, what would you tell that young CMO how to find that balance because board members, shareholders are an impatient lot everywhere. The marketers role, what he's been taught in business school is to build a brand over many years. How does a young marketer today find that balance because there is humongous amounts of cacophony around you. You have social media, we've seen so many examples in the recent past where a campaign that has been worked upon by the agency and the brand team for months is suddenly pulled out because of backfire on social media. What does a young CMO do in such an environment? It's a great question. I started my career in marketing and I wonder if I could do it again because things have changed so much and I often look at our young marketers, including Neha in India who was doing such a brilliant job at Pizza Hut and just applaud the speed and agility with which they handle multiple tasks. But going back to, I think you had several facets to your question. The one facet was how do you balance the short term with the long term? Exactly, results versus building the brand. And we have a simple marketing protocol which many of us travel around the world and teach, which is called SOBO, which is sales overnight and brand overtime. And one of the things we teach our new marketers is that we have to do both. We have to look at sales overnight because we are after all in the food business. Some of it's a pizza. You got to get that pizza to that person in 30 or 40 minutes otherwise they're going to go off and eat something else or they're going to be hungry, which is even worse. So sales overnight and brand overtime and you have to do both. Now the sales overnight typically happens through appropriate access through strong operating metrics and making sure that if a customer engages with the brand then we are able to service that request in real time. So if you take the entire process of make big cutback, it should happen in like 40 minutes in the store and by the time we promise the customer we should get the pizza out in 30, 35 minutes or whatever the promise was. That's sales overnight. A lot of it is based on operating metrics. Brand overtime on the other hand is built on purpose. The purpose that I talked about, everything that we do for the love of pizzas which means great taste, means great innovation, appropriate localization and so on and so forth. Specifically, however, and I will say this without hesitation, when it comes to so-called balancing short-term financial results, we're not confused at all. We start with our people. We look after our people, they look after our customers, the business takes care of itself. It's as simple as that. And frankly, then the short-term rolls into the long term. If you do that quarter after quarter, frankly one quarter ends and another quarter begins and you will keep growing the business as strongly and as you can because we remember this one quarter gets over and another quarter starts, right? So that's just one continuum that's happening all the time. So keep doing the right things. But from a framework standpoint, we teach Sobo, which is sales overnight and brand overtime. And we believe that helps our marketers stay appropriately focused on the near term and the long term because you can't build a brand overtime unless you're getting sold sales overnight. Equally, if you do silly tactical things for sales overnight, you will not build the brand over time. So you got to do both. Fantastic, yes. Keep an eye on the long-term, but work short-term and the other way around. Both is true. Let me come to the topic at hand today. We are discussing how mobile as a device has helped change the consumer reach out, has helped change, reorganize companies, reorganize help companies reorganize their business. Tell us legacy sort of companies. And when I use the term legacy in a very broad manner, companies that are not technology first, companies that are not native to technology have had to learn technology ground up, right? You were an in-dining experience company. You were a pizza delivery company.  What are the learnings that you had which have been very challenging for your team because the senior management has come from, for example, you worked in Hindustan, newly-leaver for many years, right? 20 years before you came to Pizza Hut and Yum Brands, you worked at HUL. HUL being the leading FMCG company of the country was not a, things were not as technology-driven back in the day in the 1980s, 1990s. So there is no business that is not unaffected by technology. So when you look at brick-and-mortar businesses, so to say, and now look at how technology is completely changing that business, what are the things that companies like yours have had to unlearn and then relearn? That's a great question. And I'll start first with the insight and then we'll talk specifically around it on the actions that we have taken. For years, brands, builders and marketers have told ourselves that we've got to make the experience better. We have to make the product better, right? The better, so you have a product test where you have, if you're launching a soap, it's got a better perfume or more lather. If you're launching a shampoo, you've got that entire feel. And I'm talking about categories that I've run in Hindustan, New York, where laundry detergent, I ran surf for some time, it removes more stains. So we remove more stains than anyone else. So we have better than anybody else and so on and so forth, right? So, the thing is, most marketers and brand builders thought that better is what takes us forward. What we learned in the last five to 10 years was that customers across the world with the emergence of technology favor ease, right? So we have to make the product better, right? So we have to make the product better, right? With the emergence of technology, favor ease over better. And therefore, easy beats better. Let me give you an example. I'll go outside the category and then come back into the category. Today, if I don't know the name of the taxi driver who's coming to pick me up, if I don't know the number of the car plate, if I don't know how far away that person is, I get frustrated, right? Not long ago, I was okay to go down and hail a yellow taxi, a Fiat or whatever it was in Bombay and that was fine, that was fine too. But that's unacceptable as an experience. I need to have it on my app. I need to know the name of the driver. I need to know how far away that person is. I need to know the car plate number and so on and so forth. I even need to know estimated cost, right? We take this for granted. That's happened because a bunch of technologies collided with each other and you've got Uber and Lyft and Ola and one of our apps, that's what you have. So the first big thing is that easy now beats better. Customers' favor is over necessarily better and complex. And then if you bring that back into our category, the reason why we have this pivot towards digital and technology was because today, our largest store in the world is this. This is 55% of our business, right? This is our biggest store. This is our most democratic store. It's our most federal store. This hopefully should look feel and the same whether it is in Japan. Don't buy, you're not French on this one. Exactly. So therefore, this is a very significant change. And if I now talk briefly to the subject at hand, which is let's say ordering through mobile devices and apps, this has now become the business that we have. I'm just looking at some of our numbers. Firstly, half our business is online, but of that in places like Malaysia, 60% is on the app. Canada, 25% is on the app. India, 55% is on the app. This is our fastest growing store in the world. And the reason why that is happening is because it gives customers ease and gives customers access. When our customers download an app, they're already more engaged with your brand than others. And we know that the app conversion rates are two to three times higher than even our web experience. So even within that space, app, mobile, web, there is very clearly a hierarchy, where that hierarchy is driven by the underlying premise of ease. It is easier to access the brand through this than to opening your computer and logging in and so on and so forth. Today I do a lot of my banking on this. I haven't gone to a bank branch. I can't remember when I last went to a bank branch. I can't remember last I opened my login on my computer. I do all of it here. This has now become normal for me. It's become normal for many of us. And therefore food is no different. Food is just so part of our lives unless we make it all of this part of our framework, our customers will not enjoy accessing the brand. But the premise is easy. That's the big seismic shift that's happened, I think, in brands and marketing in the last five, 10 years. Yes, and the opportunity to collect first-party data, you don't have a sales woman filling forms or taking mobile numbers. Now you have a mobile app where all the data is available. And the opportunity of what you can do with that first-party data, right? How do you reach out, like you're saying, the conversions are two, three times when it comes to the mobile app. Customers keep coming back. And if I can presume also doing sampling, I saw you launched this momomia pizza in India. Tell us how it's doing. It's doing very well. I was in India a month and a half ago, so I had the fortune of tasting this product. It is fantastic. Firstly, momos are just so popular. And then if you put a momo on a pizza, it's just amazing. It's basically what is called a stuffed crust pizza, but the crust or the stuffing outside is basically the momo. So it's a fun snacky kind of product which also allows you to interact with it. So I believe the first set of launch results are truly spectacular. So if you haven't tried it yet, you should. And if you still- I'm looking forward to trying it. Let me know and I will organize and deliver. There are many things I cannot do but there are some things I can do. And I can certainly- It's only an app away. Thank you, Mr. Chawla. Thank you for an engaging, insightful, and fun conversation. I'm told I can go on with this for another hour, but I'm told there are other speakers waiting, so we'll have to end it here. Thank you so much. And I look forward to meeting you when you're in India next. And I hope the pandemic is behind us very soon. And we can host you at our next event, in not a very distant future. With that, back to you, Pallavi. Thank you so much. Thanks for having me and well wishes to all of you. Good health, safety, and I look forward to seeing you again. Thanks for having me. Thank you.


All right, cyber traders good afternoon and welcome on back here this Monday, September 27th, near the end of the pay period. Great to see all of us live here inside cyber group. Great to see Jeff, Christopher, Patrick, a couple of call outs just a moment ago. Great to see Bonnie, Stefan, Donald R as well, including all of our members and trial members alike. Great to see you all. And hey, if you're joining us as always on social media, Facebook Live or YouTube, welcome on back. I'll tell you what, to begin this meeting a little frustrated that I didn't hold on to my CEI trade. I called this out heading into the afternoon. I mean, we've been on top of CEI for like, you know, a week straight, really. But, you know, this morning, as you could see, ended up making a really nice move. I mean, really before the market opened from $2.10 cents, and after the market opened, well, we had a lot of consolidation, some big shakes, but ended up beginning to break higher off $2.35 cents, moved up beautifully.  It's been very, it's been like, so, so my performance on this stock in particular. The days where it's very easy for me to get a nice entry off, then some days were in general. This stock has been very choppy, a big tease. It's a cheap piece. You could trade a lot of shares. So that's where I say I'm not like doing this on 500 or a thousand shares. I would do this on three, four, five thousand shares. So I ended up calling out a bounce, like right around 12 o'clock. I was saying, look for a bounce later on, right around 245, around 245, I was looking for that bounce. I got it right here. I jumped in on 3000 shares. I got out at 250. So it's to say I'm happy with a profit and that's a lot of shares. But right now, though, still pushing up, just called out a pop. One of our students, Christopher M, I believe, right here. So, yeah, I mean, for right now, the stock looks really strong heading into the afternoon. I wish I still had my shares from 245, but enough complaining, right? Nonetheless, this stock can make a nice pop heading into the market closed if it remains strong here with higher lows. All right, let's see. What we'll do is go right from top to bottom. Otherwise, this stock is up 25 percent, number four on the gainers list. Market ended up making a nice little pushup early on today, trying to get back up there right now. So perhaps we'll find some stocks just that are moving with the market as we go from top to bottom. But we have the phase two stock course lined up today, folks, at 3pm Eastern time continuing from this morning's classes. So I want to make sure that we have enough time just to prep and get ready, myself included. So, you know, we'll recap those that ended up making a nice push from the market open, like this Arcat stock. This thing is just so choppy right now, taking us into this time of the day. So, you know, I normally wouldn't put this on our watch list for right now, but you know, hey, if it's not going to break any lower, perhaps there's only one other way it's going to go. And I say that with the shake right back up here pulled back. It looked like it was ready to break below a support level, seemingly off like 245. Looks like it held in and popped right back up for just about 15, 20 cents. So, you know, hey, I'll put this on the watch list, probably probably on the back end of it by the end of it all. And maybe we'll come back to this.  But this little shake, I feel like this could be the beginnings of a new run coming up on the Arcat stock. All right, Cross, K-R-O-S, Keros Therapeutics. No idea what the company does. My first time looking at it right now, up over 32 percent here. You know, a little pricey of a stock. But aside from that, the order book is just too thin. So, I would much rather trade CEI. I would much rather trade the Arcat, should that hold, you know, from where it's at right now. We don't need to trade something as crazy as this or something with as thin of an order book rather as this. That's all. Price doesn't fool me as much because I'd rather trade something like a NEO or something around $35, $40. But as a really liquid order book, there's a difference. That's right now, up over three and a half percent. All right, let's see what else we got here, though. The P-A-L-T trade. This stock I wasn't really too familiar with, heading into the market open. Happy I stayed away from it.  It took a while to get the gears going, but it re-broke above five here. It seems like heading into the late morning. Moved up pretty nicely, right? 50-cent move practically from that point. But it came back down. Normally, these low-float stocks or stocks that trade normally very low-volume day to day, when they're trading 15, 20 million shares by the time it's the late morning. More often than not, there's a much higher probability, at least, of these stocks becoming more exhausted for them to pull back down. All right, so we got a call out from Patrick inside Cyber Group. I'll check that out as we go from top to bottom. Up there it is, number 17, ANY. He said it just got halted. So we'll check in with that in a bit. SWN, I don't know what this company is, Southwestern Energy Stock. It's at the highest, so hey, I love that. Cheap stock that has a really liquid order book. Not really too definitive of an iceberg level right now. It seems like the top bid lowest offer has a bunch of volume there, but aside from saying that, I mean six, 15,000 share order on the ask there. I'll put it on our list for right now, between RCAT and this SWN. Not like really drooling over either of them just yet. If RCAT pops, that's a different story. We'll keep it going. MMAT, this stock we are pretty familiar with, formerly the stock known as TRCH Torchlight, ended up making a really nice run for us going back into late May, early June time, as you can see on the daily chart, came crashing back down. And somewhere in this drop-off, they switched their company, your ticker name to Metamaterials. So nonetheless, right now, this stock is still kind of near the highs. It pushed up pretty nicely for us heading into the early to mid-afternoon. Topped off at $6.20. I mean, in this case, you could see a very clear iceberg order.  If not, maybe you're a new student, you still need to go through our phase one stock course, no problem, but as a returning student or long-time student of CTU, you know where that is. So it's actually right off the highs. I mean, nonetheless, it's not as if the highs of the day always has an iceberg there, but a 70 plus thousand share order on the ask. So you know what? Right now, I like this more than the SWN. I like this more than RCAT as of right now. We'll add this to our list too. Oh, I don't know why I clicked CEI again. CEI kind of coming back down there. All right, Medea, MDIA, not much happening right now. I guess you could say a steady bounce off the lows, but kind of low volume. Same with APOP, APOP was a drop. This is the second time in like two weeks I made that joke. You could just see dating back to the daily chart, going back into early September, my birthday right there, ended up making this big pre-market pop and then by the time the market opened up, came right back down. All right, let's see what else we got here, folks. Familiar name, CRVS. Oh, I skipped over A and Y, I think. Did I? The hell happened to A and Y here? It was number 17 on the gainers list I saw. Oh, number four now.  Holy smokes. There we go. You never know what you're gonna catch there. So number 17 now, number four on the gainers list A and Y, just reopened up from that halt that Patrick talked about. And yeah, this thing's flying on up, so easily enough we'll put this on the top of our list here so far. Cool, we'll keep it going for right now. Number 46, Givo taking a hit right now across the last five, 10 minutes. I'll zoom out here on my chart, but nice side list stock moved up from earlier today. Ship kind of slow, SAVA kind of thin. SAVA at the highs. Listen, if you've done well on SAVA from the last week, I always say, you know who you are. I'm sure that you'll be more inclined to put this on your watch list. But the same to be said with this, as I'd said, on cross, very thin order book right now for inexperienced day traders, new students, otherwise I would not want you to be trading the stock. So yeah, A and Y as volatile as that one is, at least that one has like a penny to two penny spread and very liquid order book otherwise. So that one looks pretty good. Cheapie, the ASLN stock down 32, 33%. Looks like it made a little bit of a bounce so far, but kind of low volume. I say that per minute right now, not really trading a whole lot of volume per minute, trading about 15 and a half million shares total across the day. Ooh, I'll tell you what folks, I was about to jump to another stock that was on my side list. That was on a lot of our trader side lists here heading into the morning. I'll turn to it in a bit, but now I don't really feel as much of a need to now. Let's just put it that way.  That's just kind of what I'm skimming over. That's just about it folks. I mean, listen, the market's, I guess, making a little bit of a lower high here, but made a nice bounce from earlier today. Not really too many familiar names on the loser side altogether here. All right, so the stock I was gonna jump to or that I wanted to jump to, now I'm gonna jump to it for the other reason, ATER. So I was in this trade from $12.95 here. It broke under, then over, and I jumped in. I was watching this off one of our students' callouts, and for what it's worth, made a nice move up. I ended up taking half my profit out. I took 500 shares out. I think it was right off 13.16, 13.15, like right before as we started. And then I let the other half ride to like break even or home run. So this just came right down, crash below 13. I got stopped out, scratch on the second half of my position. That's fine, but nonetheless, now this thing, I was like kind of hopeful to come back to this and put this on our watch list to see this try and pop higher. Obviously not happening now. So we're gonna pass on the ATER. Question from Leda, workhorse going anywhere. Looks like it's going up. All right, so workhorse, 9.77% right now up on the day, and at the highs the stock to be are familiar with. So it would be hard to not put this on our watch list. So definitely good call. Mike says, sidelist ARRY also at the high of the day. Yeah, but it's trading 1,500 shares per minute, like very, very low volume per minute. Normally for any stock, including this, I mean, normally the stock trades 2.8 million on average. That's including some of these bigger spike days, mind you, but it's trading a million shares right now. It's at the highs, right? But kind of slow. CLNE worth watching. It's up 12%, right before, let me turn, right before we kind of came to it. It was near the highs, at the highs. It's a stock to be are familiar with, trading more volume per minute.  Let's see, let's jump back to SWN. I'll tell you what, for all of us in social media today, all is fine and well in crypto land. It's not as if I don't want to talk about it. It's the number one thing I want to talk about. But if you folks can spare me a couple of days till Wednesday, I want to make sure that we have enough time to prep and get ready for class coming up at 3 p.m. So I normally talk about Bitcoin, crypto, all together Monday, Wednesday, Friday. Just spare me the day today. Nothing really much happened over the weekend. Actually, maybe a little jump up, but otherwise, we'll talk about crypto on Wednesday, folks, all right? Let me go, Jeffrey, Jeff H, ended up getting in on A&Y. You got out just now at $7.35. Whoa, Jeff, what was your entry price there? What was the price that you got in on the trade at? Got out at $7.35, I'm impressed, because that's like pretty close towards the highs of the day, altogether on A&Y there. So, pretty mindful exit either way, getting out under $7.50. Ah, he was in as a swing trade, not as a day trade. So I'll tell you what, big shout out to Jeffrey H. He was in from Friday as a swing trade, so he intended on holding over the weekend, but he was in at six bucks. So, man, he ended up capitalizing almost to the highest level here on this trade. Excellent, all right, cool. Let me just jump ahead to social media, Facebook Live and YouTube, checking out the StreamYard chat right now, which I'll tell you, I got nothing right now, which I kind of expected, because today kind of dragged throughout the late morning, the early afternoon. Listen, we had a couple of trades here and there, hops, bounces off support perhaps, but there was nothing really up until like right now that has truly impressed me. The A&Y trade definitely impresses me so far. And yeah, otherwise, I mean, hey, the SWN stock, I may as well kick off our list right now. That stock, it's at the highs, but it's just kind of moseying on it on the way up here. It's like not really making too clean of an opportunity for us to make 15, 20 plus cents, you know, and if you could do that in a short amount of time on.  I'm gonna scratch this one from our watch list for the afternoon, but I like the list otherwise. We've got about five stocks to work with heading into the market close, and then, hey, who knows? I may be wrong on SWN, and this may end up popping up and making a really nice run for us here, but, you know, otherwise, I would start and stick with this list folks, and then if there's anything else otherwise outside of the watch list as Rich jumps back on the commentary, the audio for us inside the trading room at 3pm, then at that point we'll look to, you know, rerun the scan, see what else is out there, work together as a team, all right? But for otherwise, most of us, Michael, Jeffrey, Norman, Bonnie, Leda, Patrick, I look forward to seeing most of you folks coming up inside the phase two stock course at 3pm Eastern later on today. Take care.


Hello everybody. Welcome back to another Adobe Photoshop CC 2021 tutorial. In this one, I'm going to show you how to warp faces in Photoshop. It's very easy. Let me show you how to do it. First step, I've got a picture loaded in here. The next step, I'm going to take this image or any image if you're following along, drag and drop it on top of that plus icon at the bottom right. That's going to create a duplicate copy. So we can work on the top copy and we can compare it to the bottom copy later. All right. The next step, making sure you're selected on the top one, is you want to go up to filter and you want to select the liquify filter. This is the money filter. Okay. Left click on that and it's going to open up the liquify options. It takes a few seconds if you're on a slower computer and presto. Here we go. Now, chances are when you first open this, you are going to be selected on the forward warp tool. That in most cases, is what you want to use. Now, I'm going to show you here a few things. I'm just going to go do some really big stuff to really push it and show you what you can do. Okay. So I'm making these monster googly eyes here and yeah, that's a bit much. So I'm going to drag that back and to drag that back. Whoa. Look at the size of the irises. Okay. I'm going to cancel that command Z out of it. So I just wanted to show you very quickly that with this tool, you can do some amazing stuff. So in this one, we're going to spread her eyes out a bit bigger. We're going to make them wider and higher. And basically, I just want to show you what can be done. And again, what you do is totally up to you, but I'm just going to go ahead and start doing some work here just to show you. Okay. Cool. So we're making big, lizardy reptile eyes for her. Okay. And we're going to make them even bigger because I really want to push the boundary here. Okay. Good. Now, so this is the forward warp tool and this can help you make some very great adjustments. So I'm going to go ahead and yeah, make her give her a crinkly smile and a droopy lip. I'm going to make her forehead bigger. Do you see what I'm doing here, guys? This is how you go ahead and make big changes and you warp faces just using this one tool. Now there are a few other tools on the left side here. The ones in particular that you may want to consider are the pucker and the bloat tool. The bloat tool expands and the pucker pulls in.  So let's see here. I'm just going to go around it and you'll see here as I hover over it and I left click, it's just slowly bloating it. It's not a huge adjustment, but you can see it when I do it. So I'm just going to go ahead and bloat around the edge of her eyes. Just keep in mind that yes, you can go ahead and use these two tools. They're quite useful. Also, while I have you, I will show you the other options here are on the right side. You have face aware liquefy. This is another way of just changing the eye size. So if you want to make them bigger, I'll just do this really quickly here to show you the eye height. The going to jack it up all the way. The eye width we're going to make wider eyes. It doesn't have quite the same effect as the forward warp tool. But you could see here that when you jam them up to 100, yeah, it starts to make a pretty big deal. If you want to go past that, you can of course go and use the forward warp tool. Let's space the eyes out a little bit. Let's go with something like that. Make the nose height a little different. The nose will make the nose super small and will make her smile super wide. And the bottom line is here, guys, is you can make all sorts of adjustments here. Let's make her mouth really, really wide. And we're going to make her face wider. Like we're really going for it. We're going to give her a thicker sponge bob jaw. You're going to make her chin. No, we're going to take her chin down. Yeah, we're going to go. And we're going to go instead of a forehead. You see here we can work on the forehead. We're going to give her a five head. Guys, you hit OK on that. And boom, it's going to do the calculation and presto. This is the new person. This is the old. That's all there is to it, guys. That's how you warp inside Adobe. Warp faces inside Adobe Photoshop. Thanks for watching. I'll be back soon.


Did you feel any pressure to try to give the multi meetings knowing that the bullpen was a little short today? I knew the bullpen was short. I was definitely trying to go as long as I could and that's ending. I'm confident I can get through. I just made a couple pitches there that, you know, they got hit. Anything odd to you about coming out as the opener? It's the only second time you've done it in the big leagues? No, it was pretty normal. I warmed up normal and everything. So besides the mound being new, there's not much going on different. What do you think of the job that the staff did as a whole knowing that a lot of guys were not available to really get the team through this one? Yeah, it was really cool to see Nester and Tarp and then Otto came out and slammed the door and the guys pitched pretty good. What do you think of this offense, your team's offense, and the way they've been swinging the bat, able to hit the ball out of the ballpark here? It's fun to watch. They hit a lot of homers. They have good at bats in between those two, so it's a tough lineup, one through nine. You've really been in a good groove since you've come back, for the most part, on the mound. What do you think has been the biggest key to your success since you've been back? I just command in my fastball and try not to get into bad counts. Do you feel like you're in a much better spot? Yeah, I feel like I'm in a better spot.


It was a cool, like, dancing stuff, man, thank you. Zendu nation, what's going on, guys? Today we got a similar format to what we've done before. It's a minute of some sort of jump rope, 20 body weight exercises, repeat that pattern three times, that's one circuit, repeat the circuit four to five times and you are going to be tired.  Yes, I said it, a jump rope ninja like karate, like moving up different belts, then join the jump rope masterclass. It's basically a system for getting really awesome at jumping rope and also getting really good at like certain body weight exercises and travel like eating and stuff so that you don't get, you basically never have to go to a gym again and you can look awesome. All right, ladies and gentlemen, so to get started, we are going to start off with jump rope regular bounce and all we're doing is the form is the most important thing, guys. So I always talk about form and just not worrying about if you are messing up, just making sure that you are jumping low, about an inch or two only off the ground. Your knees are slightly bent, you can see more as I turn on the side here. The wrists are jutting out to the sides of my hips and my arms are bent at around 90 degree angles. They kind of rotate between 45 and 90 as I'm spinning the rope, but if you'll see, guys, the only thing that's really doing a lot of work is my wrists. My wrists control everything and that's one of the biggest challenges that we see, you know, that barrier that people face when trying to become proficient at jumping rope and changing their body. Good, guys. Keep going. Keep going. Now, this is more of an endurance type of workout, even though we're going to be doing some high intensity sets and you only have 10 seconds to rest, this is still a great way to mix in long cardio with fast, intense exercise. So up next, we have three-step twist, feet out, and this is a calisthenic move. So you're not actually doing anything with the jump rope, you're just turning your feet to the right and then putting them out in the middle, turning them to the left, putting them out in the middle. So it's a couple-step thing to go left, out, right, out. So when you come back into the middle, when you meet back in the middle, you're going to spread your legs out. So you're just turning to the side, coming back to the middle, and then popping your legs out. Good, guys. We're doing 20 of these. Now, when I count 20 of these, what I mean is 20 of your feet separating. Now, guys, I know I've talked about this before, but you don't need to spend hours upon hours in a gym to get an efficient workout. If you're looking for a lean physique and you're looking for that kind of physique that you see that I have in this video that Brandon has, that kind of lean sprinter, soccer, athletic type of physique, the jump rope is especially weighted handle jump rope is a great way to build this physique because you're combining great components of cardio, so endurance, with the heavy weight, or sorry, the weighted handle rope, which helps you hang on to some of that lean muscle mass and shred fat even faster. Good, guys. Keep it going. Keep it going. And if you mess up, by the way, you'll see me mess up like multiple times. And look, I just keep jumping. It doesn't matter. You're going to mess up, guys. And trust me, at the beginning, I sucked. I was doing this, you know, couldn't do it for more than 15 consecutive seconds. And when I have a new rope, by the way, this is the cross rope premium starter set. It is freaking ridiculously awesome. And this black rope is kind of new, so I'm actually messing up with it a little bit more than I would. Some other videos, but it's totally fine because it is one of the best ropes. So as you get used to it, just understand that you will get better. Same one just completely starting out. Next up, guys, jumping lunges, jumping lunges. So all that we're doing here is making this the front angle that you guys are seeing. But make sure that you're pressing off when that front foot comes down.  Good, guys. Good. Keep it going. And I can see if you notice I throw my arms up a little bit to gain some momentum. That is perfectly fine as well. And lastly, we're going to go into our last set of regular balance. So a lot of people ask me, guys, you know how many hours, minutes per week do you work out then? And honestly, my answer to them is I work out no more than 30 to 45 minutes per day because I'm doing so many of these jump up exercises and these vast high intensity exercises that focus on hanging on to lean muscle mass and strictly burning fat. I don't need to, you know, nutrition is one of the biggest factors, guys. And when I talk about nutrition, I'm talking about eating the right amount of food. Not just healthy versus unhealthy, but what amount of calories and what amount of macronutrients, carbs, fats, proteins are you getting? That plays a big factor as well, if not actually bigger than exercise in terms of the way you look. These exercises are meant to supplement a, you know, an already well-oiled machine of eating right and nutrition. So just make sure, guys, that if you're looking for this kind of, you know, physique, it's very, it's the process of simple. You have to eat a calorie deficit, do my intensity exercise like this while mixing in some weights every now and then, but it doesn't have to be this difficult, you know, sucky thing all the time. Last one, ladies and gentlemen, tricep push-up. So in this one, what I really want you guys to do is get your elbows in, elbows in, because a lot of people make mistakes about having their shoulders spread out. So what that does over time is it actually hurts their shoulder socket and can cause a lot of pain. And that is no bueno. So keep the shoulders in, keep the elbows in, and when I'm coming down here, my body is really coming pretty far out over my hand. So that's where you really engage the tricep.


Welcome to Toffy TV, it is the Everton News Daily, where Charleston has been charged by the FA for throwing a smoke bomb out of the Gladys Trees when Everton beat Chelsea one nil after he scored his goal. He has till the 8th of June to respond to this. He did respond straight away on Twitter by sharing a picture of him throwing said smoke bomb, which just makes people love Rich Charleston even more. As we've saw already this week, the FA seem to have a bit of a love affair with Everton and taking money off Everton after Frank Llanpaw was £530,000. So I imagine Rich Charleston will be fine probably as well and that will probably be the end of the matter ultimately. Listen, it happened in the moment, it was a fantastic win for Everton, it was a big moment, the picture has become iconic so I don't know maybe Everton can slap it on a few t-shirts. Like we have that are available now if you want to check them out. He has till the 8th of June to respond next Wednesday. He's also been linked with Reymlu Did today. Apparently Carlo Antolotti is instructed Reymlu Did to get him, get them, Rich Charleston. He would cost apparently 18 million euros. This is after Mbappe rejected Reymlu Did and obviously when you think of Mbappe you think of Rich Charleston straight away. So we'll have to wait and see. We obviously know from Monday the situation with Rich Charleston in terms of the club knowing his situation and what he wants to do for next season. So we'll have to wait and see on that one. Lot of transfer rumours around today. Everton have been linked with Shakdad, Dinesk, Winger, Mane, Solomon, 22-year-old Winger. Not quite sure what the situation is with their players at the moment, with everything going on in Ukraine and stuff. So we'll have to wait and see. Everton have been linked to them.  So he's come out and publicly said that about Evan and Ajax as well to be fair. So where again fits the Bill 20-year-old centre defender. Probably exactly what Everton will be looking at at the moment as well as an experienced centre defender. Everton have also been linked recently with Armando Brogir, who was on loan at Southampton last season just gone, centre forward. Apparently if Evan were to go after him next season, they would be very little standing in their way if they went for them. And obviously Conor Gallagher as well, who sent a message back to the Crystal Palace and is thanking them. It doesn't seem like he'll be going back to Crystal Palace. So there could be an opportunity there as well if Chelsea decide not to keep him next season. And obviously with Frank Llandpart's relationship with Chelsea and what he did to bring the likes of Mason Malthyr as well, that could really help with that as well. So lots of links. There's going to be lots of links, let's be honest, for the next few weeks. Also tonight for Tally Michalenko, we'll be playing for Ukraine versus Scotland in the World Cup Playoff. The winner will face Wales on Sunday to decide the last place for the World Cup. So that is tonight if you're looking for something to watch. There you go! Also if you're looking for something to watch, the Premier League show is available right now on our YouTube channel. So make sure you check that out.

The Executive Director of Initiative for Girls' Rights and Health Development, Ayo Bello Awodoyi, says there was need for intensified advocacy against social and cultural practices affecting rights and health of girls and women in general. At a press conference on sensitization on ending female genital mutilation, which was held in Ileife as part of events to commemorate the 2024 International Women's Day, she said the pains in permanent injuries suffered by victims of FGM in some cases can be prevented if necessary. Advocates and actions are carried out through media campaigns, community engagements and massive mobilization of stakeholders. Religious community and traditional leaders, including law enforcement secured agencies, has been urged to join hands in eradicating all forms of social and cultural practices harmful to rights and health of girls and women in general. As we commemorate International Women's Day 2024, the thing for this year is to inspire inclusion and what we are doing as an organization is to declare and amplify to everyone that girls are born perfect and that the end FGM caravan is something that will be happening in 15 countries and this press conference is to make it known on International Women's Day 2024 that we're going to work together to end female genital mutilation because our girls are born perfect and there's no need to tamper with the clitoris for any reason. So I want to wish everyone happy International Women's Day, let's keep working together to end forms of sexual and gender-based violence, forms of harmful practices and ensure that we have a safe and better world for women and girls across the nations of the world and hopefully we'll be able to end female genital mutilation by 2030, we'll answer on deck all people of influence and you know people of capacity and even the locals, everybody we need to work together to make sure that we make our country a senac line.


The world has become much more complex. There are many more risks which we have to address jointly as humankind. This is a time of unparalleled complexity and change. We see basic movements, shifts in the world happening. What will happen if there's a pandemic and their people can't get to work? The political system suddenly is confronted with a news media that's on 24-7. When money is no longer represented by a physical object but is simply a notation on a server, if that server should become corrupted, what happens next? Will there be another bubble in the financial market? Yes. But when, where, in which form is something we cannot predict? We will not go back to the days of reckless behavior and unchecked access. We cannot allow ourselves to ignore the real questions. The regional international mechanism we have are not adequate. And in most instances, there are no multilateral institutions that were designed to deal with that global issue. We need to think about how do we deal with these complex contingencies? How to build something, an architecture, a community that can actually respond collectively to these global risks? We can't think of currency volatility on its own. It relates to economic imbalances. It relates to trade policy. It relates to domestic politics. And all of these make these risks even more complex to deal with. We start to say, how do they connect? What is the second order effect of this risk? How does it going to impact that risk? You have global challenges where a national response is inadequate. So what do you do? Well, you've got to innovate and you've got to come up with a way to deal with these global risks. We're going to bring together our global agenda councils, which are made up of well over a thousand experts from various domains, working with us on over 70 different areas of interest. Finding the right experts, bringing me in the room to start to define, identify the risks in the risk landscape, but understanding the connections, so now we have this x-ray. So what's the prescription? That really is at the heart of the risk response network. We've looked at the impact of the internet and social connectedness in Tunisia and Egypt. Most Kyrens won't know the meaning of this English word, but enough did. Social network is changing the world as we see it day to day. The essences and individual contributions now really matter. Today, everybody talks about what's happening in Egypt. I started thinking about hyperconductivity, for example, as a result of some interactions I had last year. And I was not completely shocked. It's become part of what we think about, what we talk about with our clients. That's relevant. Very complex systems that they were disrupted would change our lives instantly. What if the internet shut down? What would that mean for business? What would that mean for government? You do a proportional shift of resources from trying to predict the future to being prepared for the future. You know, earthquakes are a good example. Japan is one of the best prepared countries in the world, but it wasn't prepared for this. We can't predict when it will happen. The best we can do at this time is to be able to react swiftly and quickly when it actually does happen. We're very much of the belief that one thinks about how to think from a preventive perspective or how to think about resilience in advance that we can be much more effective in dealing with the next problems, the next crises that emerge. The Forum has a long history of building logistics emergency teams. We've built our disaster relief program, which has had a number of our members from the engineering and construction sector deploy resources to areas affected by natural disasters. We would like international organizations to take this risk response network seriously because of the quality of options that it produces. Risk response is not something which is negative. It should be positive in creating out of the risk an opportunity. The world's getting smaller. We have to build a risk response network. There's uncertainty, but we also live in a world where there are these global shocks that you need to think about now and you can't think about it just from a perspective of business and you can't think about it just from the perspective of government. In fact, you have to think about it together.

Sometimes, we get mixed signals. Maybe our intuition, our perception, or past experiences make us not the best at reading people. Thankfully, all is not lost. We can get better at reading people. But how? Number 1. Our Gut Instincts A majority of people don't trust their gut feelings. We usually trust our brains and believe what our brain tells us to believe. But a study from the University of California shows that people only recognize lies 43% of the time and truths 48% of the time when trusting their brains. When trusting their guts, the accuracy rate was way higher. Trust your gut because first impressions are often accurate. Number 2. Speech and Behavioral Mimicry Some people, the first time you meet them, put up a false persona or try to manipulate your perception of them. The people who are actually being honest and genuine though will mimic your words and actions. This shows they're in sync with you and how you are feeling. Number 3. Empathy Some people have a natural talent in empathizing with others, while some don't. To be able to increase your empathy, you need good reading and understanding skills. American psychologist Carl Rogers thinks empathy is important in his teachings and therapeutic methods. Empathy will help you see things from someone else's perspective, and thus will allow you to read their emotions and intentions better. Number 4. Appearance Making judgments on appearance might feel shallow, but it can say a few things. Be like Sherlock Holmes. Hey, that dude is wearing prime-conditioned Jordans. Maybe he likes basketball, rap, or at least sneaker culture. People's appearances can give you subtle hints into their character. Do they wear lots of colors? Are they very well-dressed or very sloppy? These could hint that they're organized and diligent or lazy and a slob. Number 5. Similar to number 2, body language is a major giveaway to someone's emotions. If someone's sad, they might suddenly have their head down with drooped shoulders. Are they anxious, sweating, pacing? Are they checking their phone? Maybe they're not into the conversation? Are their smiles just small grins? Pay attention and look deep into a person. Number 6. Facial expressions This aspect of body language can be hard to interpret. Sometimes each side of the face can give off two different emotions. Some are obvious. Upturned mouths and crow's feet often mean happiness and smiles. Some emotions are a combination of different signs like embarrassment. Some people, when they're embarrassed, smile. However, the lips are tighter than a happy smile. Lips might also be pulled tight when compassion is felt, as opposed to sadness where the lips are pulled down. While it's confusing, it's important to learn these subtle cues for a significant advantage in reading people. Number 7 is objectivity. With all these tips, it can lead to some bias. To successfully read someone, enter the situation objectively. Leave your past feelings of that person behind. Focus on what they're saying and how they're behaving in that moment. Our feelings can create a false impression of what they're conveying, especially negative feelings. Number 8 is patience. In order to read someone, it takes practice. People are complex. If you're in a conversation with them, they're likely also picking up on your cues as well. You can't be an immediate expert on someone or automatically assume everything about the other person. If the communication continues, they will open up at their own pace. And that's when you can figure out if you read them correctly or not. That's all from us. It's like to go.

Need your help on this when hoping these are a super score thrift with me Let's get started Okay, Bola buddies. Thanks for being here. Thanks for watching. Let's go thrifting I'll show you the items that I showed in the beginning Towards the end of the video and we can talk about that some more and then Also at the end of the video I'm gonna pull up comparables for the items that I ended up picking up today and I'm really Struggling with the item. I started to show you in the beginning of the video the teaser I really need you guys help because I Cannot figure out like pricing for these things. I don't know if I'm gonna do like an auction And start it out high and just see what happens or if I'm gonna do a bite now our best offer So if you guys have any tips, please let me know This was cute, but I didn't want to ship it So I left it behind and I meant to look this thing up, but I forgot it's like a I probably should have looked it up, but I think it was kind of expensive. I Don't know maybe 15 bucks 20. They price this is like the section where they price stuff high They're all white tags. I don't think this stuff goes on sale I don't know. I've only been to the store a few times. So I'm still kind of learning how they work So I always like to check this section because I feel like if I'm gonna find a bolo, it might be there so Fruit I didn't buy it you guys. I did not buy the fruit. Can you believe it? I've been buying a lot of fruit. I didn't look it up. Maybe I should have I Had a really great morning. I went and I went to some garage sales. I did pick this up I found one of these at my other thrift store the other day and I bought it So I was like, you know what I might as well get to and I actually forgot to comp that one out in the at the end of the video so We'll just have to wait until it sells and see what it sells for I like finding paper mache items I seem to do well with paper mache. I don't know what I'm doing right now, but sorry All right, I Think one of the people that worked there was kind of close and I'm always concerned that they're gonna get mad that I'm Recording so I just hold my phone in front of me like I'm checking comps and whatnot I don't know what that thing was, but it was some sort of statue. It was kind of cool So any tips that you guys have for when I'm recording? Please let me know. I do just use my phone I feel like that's the most discreet way for me. I feel like if I got a GoPro people would see it I don't know and I wouldn't have as much control over the bounciness. This was kind of neat, too I don't know. I think it was cast iron Maybe I should have grabbed it. I think it was price kind of high also But it was cool, and I didn't give you a very good shot of it. Sorry I'll get better Still learning how to do these thrift with me's. Oh, I'm in the toys now if these would have been Disney store or Disney parks or Something like that. I would have grabbed them. I probably should have grabbed them anyway They were just play and they were smaller plush They were 99 cents each and I'm really trying to figure out if it's Disney store while holding my phone but it was just play and Just play just doesn't have as much value But I probably could have got them for two bucks and had it be a bread and butter that I almost got It was a chicken of the sea mermaid But I didn't get her This guy I put in my cart I looked up comps and some of them were going for like crazy prices and I got excited for a minute And then I found him and he was a bread and butter. So I left him behind. I Put him in my cart there because I wanted to check comps before I bought it because it was five dollars four dollars and ninety-nine cents That's a cold care. I did not get that. I think I have that same one in a lot in my basement Now I did pick up this guy just because he's I kind of look at it as a vintage Halloween It says pirate zombie on the tag in toy factory I could not find comps on this So I that could be a good thing. Maybe it's rare So I like looking at the plush. I am pretty picky when it comes to plush Just because I have so much stuff to list and I think plush is so cute and I could buy it all So I'm just kind of checking things out. I did look that up because it was new with tags But the comps weren't very high and They had it priced higher because it had tags, you know that goes Oh, there's one of those things that I just sold was in one of my recent videos I found it at a garage sale and it was a pretty decent Bolo I think was it like fit jet or something or Fiji or so. I don't know what it was But it was pretty it was kind of cool, but that one was missing It's like ear or antler or whatever you want to call it antenna antenna antenna Yeah, that's probably what I'd call it because it's kind of like a butterfly So There was another little lovey blanket. I did not get it. I Know some people swear by the lovies I did pick up two today at another thrift store Now this is a folk monest. I always grab folk monest. I love it. They're puppets But I have a family member who loves narwhals. So that one will be a gift Let's see. What else did I get and I did comp those out just because I was curious and the pre-owned ones There was one that sold for like $28 free shipping and that's that's about average for a folk Mama's monest manis monest. I don't know puppet, but I love finding them. This was kind of cool I really wanted to see in those doors, but I could not find a key so no clue what's inside those doors, but Yeah, cute little toy. Like I really wanted to get it open. I spent way too much time trying to do that All right, was that an etch a sketch? Anybody sell etch a sketches? Do they do good? I have like a Like the red ones is what I had when I was a kid So are most of them vintage or do they make like a newer version? Do you guys know? There's a troll Checking out the Barbies. I'm looking for some like from the 60s didn't see any So I just passed on those none of them had any clothes like where are their clothes? Do they undress them and then sell the clothes separately or do people just donate them naked with no clothes? I mean none of them had clothes so weird All right, we got some more plush and I'm sure I passed on some plush that I should have picked up So you guys be sure to let me know in the comments This is a tinker bell, but she was kind of dirty her legs. So I went ahead and left her I left her there But that would have been one that I probably would have picked up if it would have been in good condition Just because it's a Disney princess and those seem to do decent so much plush at this store and The prices range, you know, I Don't really want to pay $5 for Stuffed animal. I'm too cheap. I guess unless I know it's a bolo, then I'll pay $5 This little guy was kind of cool. It was a little like dragon And I don't know. Maybe I should have got him. I don't think I'd get any more plush, but there's definitely a Definitely items here that I could have sold. Oh, here's the little sloth I think sloths are so cute ever since I sold that folk monest sloth I'm like, oh sloths are so cute and Ooh, ah crochet Made the most amazing sloth. You guys go check out her channel and check out that sloth. It is so cool So cool All right, let's see. Okay, I did get a couple things in this aisle And I was gonna show you comps on the one it's an American girl item and I forgot to take a picture of it to try to look it up when I came inside and the comps weren't on my phone anymore because I Had comped out so many other things after it. I did pick up the dimensions kit And I'll show you some solds for similar items at the end of the video Down here always open boxes guys, so this one I Was not a hundred percent sure what to do. I've sold string art before But this one's missing the string which I don't think is a big deal. It has all the it looks like it has all the nails I guess I didn't count them and the price was decent, but it is a Wire art kit and it's a deer a buck Because it's got the antlers, so it's a buck So I did pick this up. We'll see I need to look into it a little more Think it was three dollars two dollars and ninety-nine cents. I'm rounding up. I'm looking for the string. I don't see it Okay, this is was a pleasant surprise. It's American girl And I pick up American girl stuff because if it's not a big bunny bolo It's definitely bread and butter and it will sell some sort of like little display the ones that I found when I was at the store Had clothing items that came with them I did not there see any clothes with that So I'm just kind of looking through the arts and crafts sections if you guys haven't seen my arts and crafts Bolo category video definitely check that out There's definitely some outside of the box items that you should be looking for when you're out at estate sales Garage sales thrift stores, so they're arts and crafts below items to be on the lookout for I Also have one on board games as Seen on TV Lots and lots of Bolo videos if you guys are new to the channel definitely go check out my other videos, right? Let's see Trying to think if Think I go to the house. Nope Looking at the games. All right, we're gonna go through the games now Again comment below if you see something you think I should have picked up and one of my other videos You guys were like you should have got this you should have got that and I did go back But it was like a week later and I was able to pick up a couple of the items that Some of my subscribers suggested that I should have gotten So I really appreciate you guys so much. It helps me learn it helps the people watching learn So definitely check the comments if you're watching because people will point out things that have value That was a 3d puzzle I Was not gonna count the pieces so I just passed if it would have been sealed. I definitely would have picked that up Not counting the pieces. I don't know what was in there, but it was kind of fancy The Disney game looked kind of cool. I love looking at toys and games It's like one of my favorite things to sell right now and that could change But right now it's pretty fun. Oh, and I'm really enjoying listing jewelry Yeah, if you didn't if you have not seen my I bought it on eBay to sell on eBay 344 pounds of jewelry you should definitely go check out that video. Oh my goodness and Then every Monday I post a video for that series checking out the games That was kind of cool glow in the dark little dinosaurs I'm sure there's things I should have gotten Like I watch it back and I'm like, hmm, maybe I should have got that This thing I have no clue what it was. It's super weird I did look up comps and they weren't great. So it was big and bulky. So I just left it there This is like the Halloween section. I always check because I love vintage Halloween There's some plates I pick up and I put them in my cart But you know, they were dollar each and I just felt like a dollar each was kind of high So I put them back Maybe I should have got them. I don't know. There were four here and then I found one over Sitting in another aisle. So five total. It would have been five bucks. I don't know. I probably should have got it They were from the 90s. I do believe. All right. I'm trying to remember where I go next Isn't that funny? I Recorded this video earlier today and now I'm doing a voiceover and I'm like hmm. I forget which section comes next Trying to get the things to work. You definitely don't want to get home and have them not work, right? These are kind of cool. There's that other plate I was thinking about it Put them back. I Think I pick up this. Yeah, so I think these are like those live pets and I think I've sold a turtle But these are spiders Kind of creepy and I probably would have bought them, but they were at eight dollars and Eight dollars. I'm too cheap for eight dollars. So I put it back. Hopefully it's not a bolo I was trying to get them to work. I wanted to see them crawl around You spiders who like spiders? Comment below if you like spiders. I do not like spiders Okay, so that's the Halloween stuff almost and Then we are oh, okay, so this is kind of the back of the store and There's more figures. So I'm guessing the ones in the front are White tag items and stuff that they think are Have a higher value So the items back here. I think they reduced. Oh, I meant to look up that cat Shucks.  Maybe I should have got those. I don't know What do you guys think? Let me know in the comments You guys are gonna be like, no, you should have got it And I'm okay with you guys saying that so if you see something I think you can time stamp it by writing in the number Of where you're at in the video and then you make the comment and then when I come and look I can click on that and it will take me to that part of the video So it's easier for me to find what exactly you were talking about That's a little watermelon set. I probably could have made decent money on it But it just decided to pass. Well, I'm thinking it's in my hand Oh goodness And I think I forgot to turn my camera here. So sorry about that Definitely some, you know nice cool knickknacks, but I want bolos Or decent bread and butter like I'm not shopping for myself I mean, I guess if I found something cool, I might buy it I cannot wait to show you guys this special find here it comes Okay, so I thought we were there. Maybe we're not there yet Coming soon Okay, here they are So this one is like eight of Oh, I turned it too quick. I think there were only 12 of these made It's got the long tail. I think it's a mouse or a rat But they're mohair. They're jointed Some of them are made by an artist with the last name muller I think it's catrin muller Two of them I bought are from made by her This guy is so cool. He's pretty big also, but that one is made by her um I can't find a lot of information on her so I don't know and these were all together But they were all priced separately Clemens seems to do really well also as you will see here at the end of the video So I'm just kind of showing you them. I probably should have pulled my camera back a little bit It's pretty close, but you get the idea um They're really neat items and You can see the prices some of them were priced at 9.99 I think there was one at 12 dollars and 99 cents one at 14 dollars and 99 cents Okay, so I feel like I scored pretty big at this Thrift store today also and this thrift store is about 45 Well, maybe maybe only 35 minutes away from me. So I did drive a little ways So I got that plush and it says zombie pirate. So I looked up zombie pirate It also says toy factory, but I couldn't find any toy factory. So these were the ones that I found That were kind of similar So not great, but again, they're not toy factory. So I don't know if that's a benefit or not The next item I got was this uh, I think it's pronounced cruel And I could not find the exact kit that I got so I just typed in birds because mine has birds on it So here's some of the comps so um I always pick up dimensions vintage if it's dimensions and vintage and I can get it pretty cheap I always grab it All right, so you get the point Uh, the next one All right, so wire art kit It's by makala. It's from 1979. The one I got is a horse And I'm sorry not a horse A deer mine is a deer. I think this might be the one but this one is already complete And they have a list of for 16 with free shipping um The one I got is missing the string So I don't know. Maybe it wasn't as good of a find as I had hoped But I think it was like three dollars. So it'll be okay I'll still make money The next item okay you guys I need your help with these guys um Right here. This is the name catrin catrin muller And she's the artist So these are active right now these two um With her name and she makes these bears and they're amazing and Let me see This one's a sold but it's only six inches So you guys saw the one In the video that I have I think I have two by her okay, so I think mine are limited edition also And they're pretty rare I I don't know. I'm just I I tried to research it at the store Because they were you know, I had to pay up a little bit for them And I mean this this little guy's kind of similar But I think it's smaller than the one I have But it's definitely the same coloring But it's in another country so I don't know. It's just so confusing Um, I did find on etsy. This one is listed for 95 dollars But I can't really Let me go in and see what he looks like I want to see like a body Oh, he's cute. He's got the little toy But you can see scottis tag mine has the tag So I got to figure this out, but that one's listed at 95 I'm guessing these are items that I'm going to list and they're going to be a little bit long tail until the right buyer comes along All right. This thing is a Clemens bear Okay, so I have some clemens bears also. This is active and it's got the little tag like mine has Um, this guy How does it say? Oh, this is a fin hold bear So I have two fin holds also I don't know I mean limited edition is definitely going to help and they are mohair So It's just so confusing to me All right, this is a clemens mohair But that one has a musical moving head So clemens, I don't know if that's is that a bear or a mouse This little guy Limited edition, you know the tag on him looks like the tags on mine So That very well could be a good comp Let's go into flipper tools and see okay, so I'm at flipper tools and I'm going to go to Best offer I'm going to put the number in We're going to see what this little guy sold for maybe 92 50 So that's good. I have two of those Um, okay, that's exciting now. I think mine Are more of a limited edition than this one because it says Three out of seven hundred and seventy seven and I think mine are much Much lower And it says caution this product is not a toy and is intended for adult collectors only So apparently I need to put that because I've seen that in more than one listing But yeah super cute So you guys if you have any feedback on these I would definitely be interested in hearing what you have to say If you want to put that in the comments below Thanks so much be sure to check out the description of the video like comment share and subscribe.
