Hello, Aditya. Hello, Dheeraj. Hello, how are you? Hello, I'm audible. Hello. Yes, Dheeraj, you are. Sorry, I missed that. What did you say, Aditya? I'm really sorry just to give me one minute. Dheeraj was asking whether he is audible or not. So I told him he was audible. Ah, great. Thank you. All right. Forgive me that I'm a little bit behind schedule right now. I need to get the agenda up on screen and then we'll talk through what what we're going to discuss today. Sick meeting is running now. Okay, got it. Sorry, just a minute while I bring up the text really truly it's I shouldn't take this long to get into a text editor. It's not that hard. Okay, good. Here we go. Hello, Alyssa. Good morning, Mark. Okay, so I am going to start sharing my screen and we can talk agenda and be sure that we get all the topics identified. So you should see a copy of the agenda that is currently empty. Yes. All right, so we've got one topic which was communication improvements that I'd like to put somewhere on our agenda for today, particularly communities and so discourse was discussed in the in the in the governance board yesterday and I'm really quite impressed with what it's showing for us. So today is we've got DevOps world is coming right and we've got a contributor summit at DevOps world or associated with DevOps world. And in this case it will be during a pack time zone. So Alyssa and I will be in the middle of our night to to attend that session we look forward to it. Outreach program status seems like a good thing for us to talk to briefly. So we can talk to Google summer of code. Alyssa would you be willing to share current status on Jenkins is the way. Yes, I can. Thank you. Then we've got, and this one we've got the CDF webinar coming soon coming next week, DevOps radio opportunity discussed was discussed yesterday let's talk further about it Alyssa because I've got more questions there and. All right, and, oh, and this one yes press releases to speak to analysts. I got some guidance yesterday that we should talk further about that so. Okay, Jenkins press contact is what I'm going to call it. Now dear eyes there were also topics we noted during our docs office hours that should be brought up here today what were they can you help me remember them. We had a discussion about how we can invite college students also to start contributing to Jenkins. So we wanted our target audience to be called students and how we can approach them. Approach invite them to be contributors. All right, good okay so inviting students to more actively contribute good and that's, that's one that that Alyssa had had been thinking on as well and, and so that's discussion topic. Great, thank you. Okay. All right, very good. I don't remember any other topic. All right, so Alyssa maybe would it be okay if we had you take the active voice on on the DevOps world is coming and we'll, we'll have that one there and then outreach programs I can probably talk to, I can certainly talk to Google summer of code. So dear Raj, would you be okay being the voice here on the university students and we'll interact with you and talk back and forth. And then Alyssa you'll take Jenkins is the way. Yes. So dear Raj in this case what we're what we'll do is have you act as as our authentic student and therefore we'll use you as the test case. Absolutely. Thanks very much. All right, then. What else that needs to go on the agenda. I think it looks good. Okay. All right, so I'm going to mute myself so that I can take notes without distracting go ahead. All right, so, so DevOps world is slated to begin September 28 to the 30th. We do have a lot of Jenkins sessions at the event. The event is virtual this year as well. Next year it's most likely going to be in person event. So a lot of Jenkins topics. We will also have an exhibit area that we will probably need Jenkins experts to help staff to answer Jenkins Q&A questions. And then, as Mark mentioned, we are also planning for a contributor summit during the event as well. And we can go into that further now or later. Mark, we can go I guess we can go into that now. So right now I'm still working this out with the events team to set up the date and such and see what platform that we want to use. It's still in the works, but we are planning for contributor summit during the DevOps world in September. Now, and, and do you think there's a reasonable chance that we could we will be allowed to do it during Asia Pacific, even though the conference itself is not during Asia Pacific time zone, but that still be okay. I think it should be okay so I think the backup plan so if we can't. If, if the conference cannot post the event via their platform, then we'll just go to zoom as our default as our backup plan, and you know, we have plenty of freedom to use it whenever we want in that case. All right, thank you. Okay, so the complication is we will need need a contributor summit agenda. Yeah, participants, promotion, etc. And then we will also have Jenkins workshops at the conference as well. So tell us more about the Jenkins workshops what what sorts of things does that mean. So the workshop, it's going to be about three minutes. No, sorry, 90 minutes training workshops and that's virtual. And this is going to be on how to contribute to the Jenkins project. I'm also working on the possibility of having another workshop that's on Jenkins pipeline so that's still in the works and yet to be confirmed. Great. Excellent. And these will be free. Super so dirage you recognize this one. Contributing to Jenkins. So dirage was one of the co presenters at our newcomer segment at the contributor summit at the last contributor summit we had in June. Yeah. Oh, and it did you was, did you weren't you also one of the other presenters so so three of the presenters at the last session are in this meeting. Yes. Great. Excellent. Thank you and then they were staying up very late in the middle of the night to help do that. Thank you very much. That's really nice. Anything else that you wanted to bring to us on DevOps. Oh, actually, let me put the note here right because I've got the action DevOps world announcement for the Jenkins that I oh site. And I wonder is this one. Dear Raj I wonder if you wanted to do you want to pair with me pair with me on creating this pull request. Are you interested in doing this is this is kind of a documentation effort. But it's a different thing because it changes the Jenkins that IO top level site and makes makes an entry adds an entry into this. Oh dear what do we call it, help me on this. Yes, the jumbotron this thing. We need to change this to highlight. Okay, we're done with she code Africa. We've finished CD con. And so we need to remove those two and we've completed the contributor award so are you interested in in pairing with that maybe we do that at our next Docs office hours. Absolutely. I'm really happy to be part of it. So Alyssa I am proud to say that I now have a schedule for when I'll do that. Okay, that's that's great just thanks very much so we need to Alyssa that means you and I need to be sure we get the images collected in time. The next office hours is late Monday evening. So it will be next Monday after your end of your working day. I will work on it today. Great. Also, how do we promote for DevOps conference like with the help of mailing lists, of course, and there has to be some posts on LinkedIn. That's all I can think of. Is there anything else that you use. Good good question so other so promotional things for DevOps world will do the jumbotron. Right, so we'll put it on the Jenkins jumbot on www Jenkins.io LinkedIn posts. I think we've done those before right Alyssa from the Jenkins LinkedIn post Twitter. And a couple of blog posts. Good. And the blog posts usually that highlight interesting topics in the agenda right in the conference agenda so hey this this speaker or that speaker. Yeah we highlight the Jenkins sessions or workshops and contributors summit what's involved what this agenda look like. Things like that. Right Oh a good point yes certainly we will want to blog post that announces the next contributor summit as that comes available as the as we get agreement and when etc very good. Thanks. Great. Okay. Anything else on DevOps world. I think I'm good. Okay. I am, I am really pleased with the results that we're seeing from community Jenkins.io. So, if we, let's just go look at it briefly so that you can see the kinds of things that are happening on that site now. What this is is discourse is a discussions forum, a way of doing and they've volunteer they've donated hosting of this for the Jenkins project. And so what we see here is new topics that are introduced and conversations that started that say hey, do we need this, do we need that. Lots of ideas and suggestions from people that come in or hey here's a question somebody highlighting a capability. Here's how I used groovy inside my, my visual studio code, those sorts of things and now it's got categories so we can look at, hey I'd like to see everything about contributing code. Oops, no topics there maybe I want to see about contributing to advocacy and outreach. Here's Alyssa asking for approval for the ebook number three. Great uses of this Jenkins discourse size community Jenkins.io. Mark, is that where people can go for support questions to continue to use the mailing list. They can, and we're we're experimenting with it now so so for instance it's the we envision that this could eventually completely replace the mailing lists. We're not we're not ready to announce oh yes it's done, but we certainly can do question and answer kind of things here. Okay. So, so did that. Did that help. I'm. Yes. Yeah, because of the reason I asked is I sometimes I get a question here and there on Jenkins is the way.io on support question so and I refer them to the mailing list. Yeah, and, and I think, I think it's a it is a very, very good candidate as a place to do conversations like that because of the facilities it has to make communication better between people. It's got it's got concepts that that just don't exist in the mailing list hey I can, I can give a thumbs up, I can, I can tag something I can remove tags, and, and those sorts of things allow the information stored here to be much richer and much more useful. Okay. And I continue to be amazed at the things we get out of the showing off category has been a lot of fun it's been unexpectedly useful to see. Oh yeah people just highlighting here's how I use Jenkins so if we look at showing off. I posted a link to our presentation he and I did at CD con, or you'll find all of the, all of the contributor summit videos are our LinkedIn are available as link here so if we look at here are the full sessions with all the videos and easy to get to posting this was really trivial for me. The search feature. Yes, yes, exactly. All right, any, any questions there in terms of how we're doing with discourse and what we're doing there. So, is this going to be a replacement or an alternative to get us channels. Yes, it actually is a potential alternative to get her channels. So, it's less for me at least the experience thus far has been less about chat, and more about longer longer lived conversations. So, so a question, how would I do this is really well suited to discourse, and those frequently happen in in get her chat right now. Other things like a quick conversation about a poll request or about a particular issue or I'm not sure that's a great fit for as good a fit for discourses to stay in get her. Google summer of code discussions related to the get credentials binding project that we're that I'm working that probably isn't a great fit for community Jenkins.io whereas whereas how do I use get more effectively probably is right. Did that answer your question to your. Yes, totally. All right, so. Next topic outreach program status. Actually, let's let's mix this up Alyssa would you be willing to go first and share with us on the Jenkins ebook. Sure. Um, so we have just completed ebook number three. So based on the, the Jenkins is the way stories that we've collected, we've gathered. Um, this, this, this file here is about stories from the fortune 500 companies like Apple IBM and such. You know how they're using Jenkins, what challenges they phase, and the values that they got out of it. I still need to do a final approval with the people who submitted these stories before we publish the stories I'm shooting for next week to get this story published, or this file or this ebook published. And, but please have a read and I think there's there's lots of good stories in here that people can be inspired from I mean there's, there's just, just big companies are using Jenkins and they're they're loving it. And we are also continuing to write and receive and write Jenkins is the Jenkins is the way user stories and case studies. So if there's, if you know anybody that is interested in submitting a story. So please go to Jenkins is the way.io and fill out a quick form probably 15 minutes survey and then we'll get your story written up and then we'll send you a free t shirt. Excellent. Thank you, Alyssa. I dirage your your new employer. I suspect we'll want you to do something with Jenkins and you may have a story to tell in five or six months we hope we hope for the best. I will make sure that happens. Excellent. Great. Thank you. So, next topic for me was Google or Google Summer of Code so there are five projects in five GSOC projects in Jenkins. One of those actually is represented by Aditya. Aditya for your work on on the conventional commits plugin project. That's great. So they'll be presenting next week. July 20. Thank you. The pleasure is all mine. Excellent. And I assume that your presentation is getting closer to ready and that you're, you're going to going to tell us a good story on on the 20th. About the good story part, I hope so. And presentation. Yeah, it will be ready by tonight. Tomorrow we'll do a review. I'll do a review with Garrett and probably we'll be finalize and send to Kara. Great. All right, so we'll need to promote the event. So the usual. Let's see. Meetup. LinkedIn post. What else a Twitter. Right. And I think we and I've got the action item to do a blog post so and I'll get that done here shortly. Any, any questions there or concerns around Google Summer of Code. So I remember in on YouTube you posted a video about all the previous GSOC interns who were sharing their experience about how it all went and what they learned and what is there for the new interns. So they shared their experiences right so I just want to say that it was a really really great idea and I as an aspirant was very happy to see and learn about previous interns experience with GSOC. So it definitely convinced me to be part of GSOC with Jenkins. Good, good insight so and those experience report videos actually came after the conclusion of all the projects right so so that's don't miss. Don't miss the outreach opportunity. After the projects complete. Because you've got a very good point, those experience report videos help people understand Oh hey it was like this or I, this is how I interacted and this is why it worked that way. Good. Okay, very good. So the topic then dirage on inviting students to contribute and and so maybe let's start dirage with give us share with us some of your background, what what your experience has been so far, etc. And, and that way then Alyssa and I and others may be able to ask you some questions and get some insights. So, I will definitely need your help by asking the question that really great. So, so being a student from college. I got to know about Jenkins with the help of only and only GSOC. I had no idea about GSOC. So, because if you talk about JavaScript Java, these are part of our curriculum so we get to know about them very easily. But Jenkins is something that we as a student think that it's going to be used by us years ahead, like when we are into our job and maybe that time we'll be using it so it's a state that that's the state of mind that we have. I don't speak for everyone. So, so that perspective and coming to the part where I have been associated with Jenkins and how I think about Jenkins right now. So, I would say that even though I don't have. I don't know about Jenkins very in so much detail, even then I can help contribute to Jenkins as I did using different different text stacks. And that was that was made possible because when I was in, because I got to know that there's so many so many other text stacks as well. So, that was a good thing that because I had this idea in mind that I need to know Jenkins really well how it works and code base in order to contribute to it. So, this is something that I want to clarify that you can contribute in lots of other spaces as well. And commenting about Jenkins code base specifically it is a little bit difficult to understand for people who are starting up even with Java so yeah, so if we can. So, I think we can work more on that maybe like to help newbies to understand the Jenkins Java code base specifically that would be really great. And yeah, please ask me questions then that way we can take this conversation for it. Okay, so so dirage as you, you came to Jenkins you said first through GSOC. So the Google summer of code promotion process got you into Google into Jenkins, it could have brought you to any one of several other projects, but you chose Jenkins where we just lucky that you chose Jenkins, or was it. The size thing, what was, because there are many projects in GSOC right so why, why Jenkins, as opposed to some other Google summer of code project. Is there something that that makes Jenkins interesting to you or that we should do better to make it more interesting to other GSOC students. That's a really great question so out of all the organization I chose Jenkins because I already knew someone who was part of Jenkins, sorry, GSOC internship with Jenkins so that was Sladen. So Sladen is my senior in college so I got to know about him and I approached him and he told me about this. So he suggested me some projects, and I, that's how I dived right into Jenkins. And so, so now I'm going to ask a different question this one to Alyssa. Alyssa, could you envision a refer a friend program. What, what, I mean, it's, it's sort of a sneaky approach right but, but what if we had a refer a friend program where we said, Okay, if you refer five, five developers will send you a sticker, or if you refer 25 developers and they, they, they join and submit this will send you a T I'm not sure but a refer a friend program might, might capitalize on on the on what on what Dira's just described. Absolutely, I love that idea, and we can definitely do more than stickers. Because I think this is an important space where we, you know, as we try to get more people involved in Jenkins. And I also would love to get like, you know, the perspective of each student like after, after the, the, the program right so you've gone through this process. What did you like about it. What did you learn. And my the goal there, my thinking is that that would help inspire other students, you know that we have this content documented on Jenkins.io that it could help inspire somebody down the road in case that somebody doesn't know you right so if they read your article your posts and that might inspire them. But yes, I do like that. I like the idea before a friend. Okay, now, now, Dira. Go ahead, Dira, sorry. I'm sorry I was just saying that this is a really, really great idea for a friend. So, so now you mentioned that you didn't, I think you said you didn't generally have experience with Jenkins during courses in your coursework at, at college at the university. Do you, do you get experience with other applications like do they put you into GitHub or do they have you spend time in bit bucket or giddy or, or other applications like that or not so much. Not as a part of curriculum, like if you talk about GitHub, so we are not taught about GitHub as a part of a curriculum but if we join some societies in our college, any kind of clubs that we joined them, or, or if we hackathon. So, on makes it mandatory for us to submit it via GitHub so that's another way how we.  Yes. Okay, so, so just so the curriculum it's and that matches I think with what I've understood elsewhere many times the instructors are trying to teach first principles teach fundamental things like algorithms, or, hey, here's here's this concept of functional this concept of, of block structured programming, whereas you noted, you join a club, and that club may may have a theme and that theme may motivate you to use a particular application. Now, can you give some examples of clubs in yours at your school that might might be examples there I wonder if we should reach out to clubs or to to hackathons. Something we can do. So, to tell you about the clubs, I was part of IEEE club. So, I assume that you must be knowing this. Yes. So, other than that we have CSI club as well computer society of India, and few more clubs like this. So the aim here is that the clubs work in a way to engage other college students and to conduct together some fun events as well as some hackathons as well as some workshops.  So, the need for these workshops is that in our curriculum it is not covered. So we need to go to somewhere else to get to know about these and specifically we go to these clubs and we join these groups of these are run by our seniors. So those are those kind of seniors who have went ahead with curriculum and tried out new things. So they want to share it with the people, the beginners or the juniors. They trust them to teach us something new. So that's how I got to know about Android and GitHub as well and I even won a hackathon at our campus. So that's how I involved in hackathons as well. And guess about Jenkins, how Jenkins can come into this picture. So our hackathon was sponsored by GitHub. So that's how Jenkins can also involve themselves here by sponsoring hackathons at college levels. That would be great. Good. Okay, so These are great insights. Right. So, and, and now, when, when you say GitHub sponsored the hackathon. Did they have local employees who are assisting with it. Did it was it just that they funded it. Tell me what sponsorship meant for a hackathon. Right. That's a great question. So, if we talk about a hackathon which is sponsored by GitHub, it means that they are going to be giving away their specific goodies first of all to the winners. It is being run by the connection between GitHub and the hackathon is by a campus expert. So GitHub has a concept of campus experts. So they have some set of students in a college who represents GitHub in their college. They do that with the help of conducting some, you know, same thing, events and hackathons and workshops to tell people about, Hey, this is how important GitHub is and how it works and how it's going to be useful for you. So they're like the voice of GitHub in our college. So this is run by conducting some interviews and everything. So same thing is for Microsoft and other companies as well. So that's the, that's the thing that's the thing I want to do. And now are these campus experts, are they students or are they actual GitHub employees. So they are students for sure students. Okay, all right. So, so, and any idea how, how GitHub found those campus experts to persuade them to be a campus expert. Well, they have a website dedicated to it. And I think even Aditya is DSC lead from our college since we are in the same college. So DSC, am I audible. Yes, yes, you said DSC lead. Yes. So I hope my voice is not breaking a little bit. A little bit. I'm so sorry. Yes, sure. So I was telling about the DSC lead, it means so developers student club. So what this club is about is there are some set of students. So I think that the DSC lead from our college. So what he does is he represents the technology of Google at our college by partnering with our already existing clubs, and, you know, taking workshops and using the technologies in the events to tell people about it. So, so that's about Do they actually teach you how to use the tool in the sponsorship. So, so let me know if I, if I got a question right so if you talk about GitHub experts so, so you're asking me whether they teach us how GitHub works by connect some demo and seminar just like that right. Okay, so yes, they do that. They do that. They tell us about how get push works get full works and they do some sample projects and that's how we get to know about GitHub. Okay. Okay, so it's that that the campus experts commonly get some instructions from the, the company, and then the those campus experts then show by demonstration and by example, how to others to other students so. They may show, they may schedule a meeting of the DSC and say, hey, we're going to do a DSC meeting and we're going to talk about GitHub pull requests and I'll show you how they work is have I understood correctly. Exactly. So, if I'm not wrong, they have a schedule of events for plan for the DSC needs that they need to do at college. So, they have to follow the schedule and conduct event and the people from DSC the higher authorities they are repeatedly check out their progress all throughout to know which college and is doing both how many events that they've conducted and how the participation is there and so on so forth. Excellent. Okay, thank you. All right, so, Alyssa any other questions that go ahead dirage. Yes, so I was just. So, since you asked me about the campus expert and DSC so I was just wondering if we have Jenkins campus expert then they can help the students by coming in any let's say a hackathon and they'll be using Jenkins as a form of CD tool. And we'll be helping students to know about how it makes it easier to use Jenkins. That could be helpful. Right. So, so that yeah that I think, I mean, we've certainly got Jenkins has all sorts of well, there are many courses and slide decks to introduce Jenkins right. And, and certainly we could share those with a campus experts and and that would be great. So, Google Summer of Code in Jenkins is certainly another thing that could happen next year actively promoting it on campuses saying hey look as part of the Google Summer of Code excitement here do this. Good. All right. Exactly. And I was posted a link on the zoom chat so it's about get up campus experts so you can know that they have a dedicated website. Ah, very good okay. Thank you. Very good. Yeah, thanks very much. Excellent idea. Okay. Thanks. So, that's about that. All right. So, I can certainly help with any of this, you know getting Jenkins into the schools and you know just, we can, we can tag team this and, and, and help, you know, get work and connect you to the appropriate people to get Jenkins into the school if, if that's what, you know, you would like to pursue, but I definitely would like for Jenkins to get into a school for sure. Exactly. That would be really, really great. I would love to be part of this. Great. Okay, very good. Well, D. Raj, thanks very much for your being the voice of the student contributors that's really wonderful. Yes. Thank you so much. So anything else on inviting students to contribute. I think on my side. Okay, next topic was DevOps radio opportunity. Alyssa. Yeah, so DevOps radio opportunity so cloud bees has a couple of DevOps radio opportunity that they are willing to give us some slots, where we can talk about Jenkins so that to help promote Jenkins. These are podcasts and it's going to be via, you know, Q&A sessions. So it's just an opportunity for us to give some awareness to Jenkins and to hype about Jenkins. Great. And do you have any, are there any things that you'd say, ooh, I would suggest this topic or that topic or things that you'd see our themes in the DevOps radio podcast that should, should we be addressing what's hot right now in Jenkins should we be addressing. Hey, what's, what's interesting what's the latest thing that's happening or what sorts of things would you envision. So I envision that so based on our previous DevOps world conferences, it seems like these sessions that performed really well are the ones that are informing people what's the latest and greatest about Jenkins. So many Jenkins users and you know and they're still continuing to use Jenkins. So they want to know what is the latest and greatest tips and tricks are always great, but I'm not sure if the podcast would be you know a good place for that. So I think just an overall talking about Jenkins, what's involved how to contribute even and you know just just just check out Jenkins in general, I think it would, it would be good. Yeah, we, we would need to decide as a team on you know what is the topic we want to talk about. Come up with some Q&A. Can Q&A's and then we can go forward from there. And how long is a typical DevOps radio broadcast. I believe it's an hour. I'm not sure I have to check. Great. Okay, so that for me would be an important one because there are lots of lots of different stories and since it's a podcast it's entirely audio so no slides to show no no video recording right it's just audio. Yeah. Okay, good. All right. Good. Okay, thank you. And this this I assume could be anybody from the community it doesn't have to be an official voice of this or that it's just people, people who are interested in and have something to say we could we could use their their story here. Yeah, definitely. Excellent. Okay. All right. So we'll mark and Alyssa continue that recruiting and topics. Okay, good. Next was Jenkins press contact and this one came up in the Jenkins governance board meeting yesterday. So Alyssa had sent a question to the Jenkins governance board looking for someone to represent Jenkins in the in meetings with people from the press and meetings with people who are industry analysts or things like that. And we use the phrase. Jenkins spokesperson and got a correction that oh hey there isn't really a person called the Jenkins spokesperson, but we do have Jenkins press contacts in the US and in China and in in the Russian Federation. So we've got official Jenkins press contacts. Right now, those two are listed as Tyler Croy and Kosaka cow Gucci. And some of them are actually actively involved at the moment in the Jenkins project. So what we need. What we need is we need someone who can be the official press contact. And I think what we'll do is bring it to the to the next Jenkins governance board meeting. Yeah. Yesterday in the Jenkins governance board and Gavin Morgan was willing to take the role, but we use the wrong term to define it. And so I think we need a little bit more discussion before, before we're ready to say oh Gavin's a viable one. We may also want to hear voice from, from Oleg Nanash of or others on. Okay, who else should be considered as possible press contacts when there's a need to answer questions from the press. Okay. So does that are there are there immediate needs that we have over the within the next two weeks where we need someone to talk to someone or can it wait till the next governance meeting Alyssa. Oh, it can wait Mark. Oh good. Okay, great. Then I'll get it on the on the next board meeting and we'll discuss it further. Thank you. All right, any other topics for today. Great meeting. Good stuff. Thank you very much. Dear Raj. Thanks and have a great night. Hi. So, I want to share one more thing like you were asking me about what are the criteria for DSC lead. So if we are not, if you have some time I can, or we can continue later. Oh, that would be great. So tell tell us more about the DSC lead role. Not take much of the time. So if you talk about DSC lead, the criteria set by Google is that you need to have one year left for graduation and strong technical understanding of computer programming and software engineering. And yes, host and even ideally once a month, and at least every three months, three months. So, and if we talk about the process of application. So, it's like similar to get a campus experts or what they do is they ask them to complete a registration form, then submit a video resume, and then take some interviews as well. And yeah, then they finalize the candidate to be the campus experts for a particular college or university. That's how they do. So, if you're planning to do that so we need to have a particular curriculum defined and you need to, you know, get in contact with some specific students at some colleges and then find out the best one among them and like take a review from from them once a month and just make sure that they're doing what they're supposed to do. So, yes. That's, that's a that sounds like a really amazing program so the DSC program this is sponsored by Google. Is that right. Absolutely. Yes, Google. Okay. And I've also posted the link on chat. Oh, good. Thank you. Okay. So all. Excellent. Okay. Okay, and then this is an international program. Exactly. So we have a campus experts from USA University colleges as well. Thank you. Thank you. Yeah, that's, that's amazing. All right, great. Good stuff. Um, Mark, so I don't think I have to rush email address. Can I get that from you or can I. Sure. I'll send it to you. You bet. Okay, great. So Josh, I'll reach out to you.

The following is a presentation of TFNN. The TFNN Bull Bear Training Hour. Every training day, live at 10 a.m. Eastern. Call now, toll free at<PHONE_NUMBER> or internationally at<PHONE_NUMBER>. The TFNN Bull Bear Training Hour. Now, Tommy and Tommy O'Brien. Welcome folks, appreciate you're growling a problem with us out here. We have the Dow Industries down 83, Nasdaq is up 8, S&P's the flat, Gold contract up $7.20 straight in $14.28. You get Silver up 19 cents, $16.66, Light Sweet Crude up 39 cents, $57.17 a barrel, Notes and Bonds, they just won't give it up folks. You get the 10-year note up 9 ticks, $127.20, 30-year up 20 at $154.29. And the kicker here folks, is that every time that they pull back, you get light volume, you get small price spread, when they go forward, and like today the S&P is shaking off, the negative wants to go higher, is going higher, and Notes and Bonds are still going higher. That's a heads up in a big way. Kingdollar, Kingdollar got over its highs, and yesterday it got right next to its high of $977.15 and gave it up. Let's see where that baby's going to go. We get the Euro trading right now at the 111, the yen is at $107.98, and the pound is out here at $125. So the pound's getting some action on the way up. The Euro is the one that got smoked yesterday, when, you know, well, it's been getting smoked for a while actually. Yeah, right? Yeah. Let's go over to our M.M., Mr. Kevin Hinks at TD Ameritrade, Linkless Swim, as we do each and every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. And don't forget folks, every trading day right here, 11 to 12 Eastern Standard Time, you want to understand option, option strategies, futures, outstanding program. If you haven't test driven yet, the Think of Swim platform, really easy to do. As you're at our website at TFNN, you just hit that banner, bring it up. Delight of trade of paper money, every trading day right here at TFNN. Kevin Hinks, what's going on? Good morning, Tom. Good morning, Tommy.  You know, I don't know what we can look at. No, not exactly. I mean, there's politics, there's business, there's breaking news, there's earnings, there's economic debt as light, but later on in the week, it's going to get pretty heavy in terms of some economic data. So if you like trading and you like movement, these markets are giving you everything you can handle and more. And then we got oil numbers in a half hour, so you gotta come on and just do, Kevin, why not? And listen, folks, Texas Instruments folks, Texas Instruments is up nine and a half dollars, okay? You're talking about number one, a monster company. It's blowing away a consolidation that it's been in since January of 2018. You know, Kevin, yesterday when these numbers were coming out, there's quite a few of these equities that are blowing away a monster consolidation of almost a year and a half. Right, well, think about it, Tom. When you talk about especially the semiconductor sector, right? What happened in micron yesterday? What happened in Texas Instruments? Traders are starting to look forward on these to kind of getting through the inventories and really a better, remember, when everyone was talking about the second half of 2019 being better for all the semis. And then they kind of pushed that out to 2020 with some of the inventory news and things like that. Now it looks like those with micron, the action in that stock, and now Texas Instruments earnings. It looks like some of those days are getting pushed back into 2019 in terms of a recovery in the semiconductor sector. So, you know, stocks are forward-looking and people are taking a good hard look at these names. Big time. And you know what's amazing, what you're saying, Kevin? Over the course of years, it seems like the chip stocks are really almost commodity stocks, right? Yeah. Every single time that they go down to the doldrums, right? It's like, well, they're down to the doldrums and things have changed now, okay? And then you give it six or eight months and they go exponential again. I remember the first time, you know, years ago when I was first getting in the market, I really didn't know what Intel did. And folks, believe it or not, you know, in the 80s, Intel would go low, do you know what I mean?  They're not selling enough. And then it's like, are you kidding me, man? And then six months later, it would go exponential again. I mean, it does those rounds, right? And more people, more machines, more chips, right?  These are some of the ones you should be looking at. I mean, when you're talking about a market at the all-time high, people are looking for sectors that are beaten up and maybe have a chance to outperform, right? Everyone's chasing yield right now, right? So people are looking around for what's cheap and what looks cheap. And there are some, I mean, three, six months ago, the semiconductor sector was in tanners, right? Down there and beaten up and there was no outlook for positive. Yeah, 50% down, you know? Right.  You're seeing some of that in retail right now. Yes. If people are betting against retail, I mean, look at some of the yields on some of these retail stocks. Nordstrom's over 5% dividend yield now. So, I mean, some of these stocks look awfully cheap based on the rest of the world and what we see, unless, of course, they're absolutely going to zero, which, frankly, I don't think so. Yeah, I don't think so. You know, what you still see, which is pretty amazing, I forget what company was, but you have, I might have a Nordstrom, actually, they're putting 500 million into one store. I mean, it was like, what? Those types of numbers, it seems that they make much more than just the top of my head goes. I mean, when you can invest that kind of money, it's like, okay. Think about this, Tom. We were in the area yesterday, Oliver Renwick and I, as that news broke about the Department of Justice looking at some of these companies. And they didn't name names, right? Right. But when you talk about social, you talk about search and you talk about retail, guess who you're talking about? Right? You're talking about Google. You're talking about Facebook and you're talking about Amazon. Yes. So that's going to put a blanket over some of these names and some uncertainties, even on a day where Facebook's earnings are coming out and you know as well as I do, all they do is make money. Oh my God. But they've got risks going forward.  And what Kevin's talking about, folks, is that he personally has to sign off every quarter that he is doing everything that each and every one of us have privacy. Sure. So it's like, I have no idea how he could ever do that. It's like, really? Yeah. I mean, can you imagine the responsibility trying to sign off on that? No. Whoa. Particularly because he's the kingmaker anyway. Yeah. I mean, he understands that whole thing more than anyone. And you know, when you take a look at it, it's like, okay, it's definitely part of the business plan. So. And think about this, guys. Just, you know, we don't like to talk too much about politics, but, you know, the democratic part of our government is a little more into regulation than the Republicans. But guess what? With these firms, Republicans are giving them no shelter or comfort from this. So they're under a full court press. Well, see, that's what I... I hope so. They should be. It's so cool about this.  Financial is right there though. Once you get into the financial, then there's no coliseum in. Right. Exactly. You know what I mean? It's like, they've put probably too many firms out of business that have big dudes also.  There's no doubt, man. Listen, folks. Right here. 45 minutes and up. Now, outstanding program. You want to understand options, options strategies, futures. Outstanding program. Kevin, you have a great one. A safe one. Of course, we look forward to the program. 45 minutes. Always... Thanks for having me out, guys. Thanks so much, Kevin. Stay right there, folks. Tommy and I are coming right back. We have the Dow Industries down in 72. Now, it's like it's up eight. It's like it's up eight. That's a piezer of one.

Dow Industries down 74. Now it's like it's up 7. S&Ps are flat out here. Let's see what else we have. So Texas Instruments, TXN, let's go into this because this is... One more time. Yeah, just everywhere earnings, man. I was trying to put together a few things, the updates, right? I was like, man, I'm never going to be able to talk about everything we have going on this morning, not even getting into the broader, just the stocks that are moving from their earnings. Right. So with Texas Instruments, now I get this on a weekly, so let's see. That's 34 million and we're at Wednesday, right? We are. That's 16. It'll be close. You never really know what today's going to add as earnings stays an anomaly of its own, so... Now, another way to do the price projection is to just take the top and the bottom of the consolidation. So the top of the consolidation is 120. Okay. The bottom out there is 87. Okay. So let's just call it 88. Yep, 22. So... 22 on... Well, that's more than 22, right? Yeah, 120. Okay, at 32, thank you. Yeah, so that gets you 152. Okay. And this is quite a move, man. Yeah. What happens, folks, if you get a consolidation, then you get a move like this, it's just much more powerful. Sure. So that is one big number. Oh, we'll go to Snap. Snap is finally over... Yeah. ...its IPO price by 25 cents. Look at that, it's underneath it again. We went into some of the expected one-day moves, right? Yeah. I think Snap was like about $2.15. So huge move, but if you're thinking, oh, man, why wasn't I making money on that move? Right. This is where, man, it makes sense. Watch that fast market right after our program. Right. Because I think that was pretty much the expected move. And that would have been built in the option market. Yeah, you know, the one-day move, too. Right. Basically, the earnings move. Right. So if you had played both sides... Yeah. ...so you were playing a volatility trade. Yeah. So if you just played a bullish pop, yeah, you could have made money, okay? Yeah. But if you just wanted to play volatility and you wanted both sides of it, it's actually, I think, under the expected moves. You might have lost money on a move where it's... You're talking about 15%. Right. So... Now, the cool thing here for Snap is that it's an ABC up, you know, even already. You know, we already got 165 million versus 123. So that would get it somewhere around 20 bucks. What is the... No, no, no. Sorry, I wasn't... 1896. Okay. I was just... What is the low we were talking about before? You said six. I thought it was six. No, 496. Look at that. 482. 482. And I believe that was right around when earnings are coming into on earnings as well, maybe December. Let's see what they have, though, in terms of... Let's see what their revenues were. I still lose the money. Yeah, that's why it's like... This is still a story to be... Oh, okay. Oh, don't you need... I just... No, I just wanted to see what their actual revenue... their numbers, you know, to see what kind of growth and so forth. So they just took in 388 million up from 320. Yeah. You know, I know there was some...  They talked about it in the chat. Go ahead. You want to go into their earnings? Yeah. They had... They kept talking about they got the... Androids. Androids. That's it. Okay. That's... And I don't use Android, so I have no revelation to that. Average of 203 million users logged in daily. That's pretty cool. So 191 was the estimate. That's a huge... You know, that's... If you just get people, right? Yeah. That's all that matters. You figure out a way to monetize them at some point. Shares jumped 13%. Let's see. Upbeat forecast. Daily users of 205 to 207 in the next quarter. Turned optimistic. Let's see what we got here. Net loss. There we go. Narrowing to 255 million. So much money. That's a billion dollars a year. Quarter of a billion in 90 days. Right, exactly. You better be... Now, they lost 350 a year ago. So they trimmed it by 100. Pretty well. It is. Let's go see what else we have out here. Well, we know we got chipotle too, but let's see what else we have. So, oh, it looks like Sprint. That deal's going to get done. Sprint and T-Mobile. Okay. That's up 50 cents right now. You get micron up 98 cents. Texas Instruments, the big one. Caterpillar came out of the earnings. They're down. iRobot. Okay. This thing gets smoked. And you can see IRBT. IRBT. This is the Rumba. Oh, okay. We're not buying enough Rumbas. This is the second one. Is that the, like, vacuum or the self-driving van? Yeah, exactly. It runs around by itself. Right. Okay. Robots of vacuum and wash tools perform... Wow, what is this? Talk about deviating, though, and perform battlefield reconnaissance and bomb disposal. Oh, yeah? Oh, geez, they're working. Yeah, no. Do they do even more than that? Yeah, I guess they do a little bit more than that. Yeah, that's... Like, what's the percent?  Yeah. And you'll see that this thing, once again, I think it's $155. I was looking at it. Not $155. Talk about some volatility in the last couple years. Yeah, $55. $55 is sticking out now. Now, companies like this, right? Like, so let's see. They're a $2 billion company. I just wanted to see what they actually, like, are taking in, how big they are. They get some growth. They do. It's just something where I see, like, why can't anybody make that? Why can't you have a generic knockoff target version Rumba? Right. You know, in terms of they're at the stage, anybody can make a robot that just runs around your carpet and picks up. So I just, maybe that's kind of some of the heat where it's taken as they struggle to grow. But those numbers look good, man. They got growth. They got profit growth. And they're getting taken to the games. Not enough though. Well, you know, it's wild about this. It looked like the market wasn't believing what they were saying, because the earnings per share number went up, but their gross revenue went down. Okay. And that's always a problem. Yeah. And what happens, folks, the market will not believe that. Yeah. There you go. So yeah, they made 25 cents a share. They were basically almost about to break even, right? It's supposed to be three cents. Yeah. But where's their revenue? There's their revenue. Well, even, yeah, I guess that's good enough. Fiscal year revenue is going to be under 1.2 to 1.125. They were looking for 1.28. Maybe click it down. Yeah, there you go. 260 million in revenue. 268. They're supposed to take 268. They're saying, okay, how did you make 500% more than you were supposed to make? Yeah. And I saw, right, and I saw the headline that might be slow as trade wars, whatever, and you know, basically what if you see the writing on the wall as a company that you're going to really lose some sales? You cut a lot of costs. Yeah. Well, that's fine for 90 days. What do you do in the next 90 days when you can't sell anything and you can't sell anything? Right. So did Boeing actually come out? They sure did. Oh, cool, okay. So... Worst loss ever, I saw a headline or something. Oh, really? Yeah. There it is. Okay. Well, they went from an earnings per share number, $1.98 to a loss of $5.82. Okay. That's a number. It sure is. They're lucky that there's only down to that much. Yeah. That's pretty wild, man. That's not... They're not getting smoked for what could be happening here. They're burning... Let's see what they're saying. They're burning a billion cash. Boeing burned one billion in cash during the second quarter sign that the strain from the protracted grounding of the 737 MAX... Well, you know, a billion... They're going to end up burning more than a billion, man. So, yeah, they're studying investors are looking at the performance compared with last year's $4.3 billion free cash flow gain to gauge how badly as in, you know, compared it to how when times were good and they were just printing billions. So here's... Let's see, all commercial aircraft. And is this what they're delivering maybe? Yeah, I'm trying to look. Either way, let's pull up the chart. So I think they were down about 1%. Yeah, down about 1%. Nothing too crazy. A lot of that probably priced into that thing. Pretty intense. You know what? We've got oil coming up. Let's take a quick look at that market before we come into the number, all right? Yeah. Just to see where we're trading at, we're going to come into the number. So we've got EIA inventories. We'll pull up the estimates. We're trading at $57.23. I pulled this back to last night. Where's our volatility on the... And you know what we had?  So I want to show that's where the API came out of. Okay. And we're not far off from there. That's right. That's right. You know, it was a little bit of a surprise, but we'll see if this whole DIA comes out. Stay right there, folks. Coming right back.

The API had a big one, big number here, though. A median estimate, only looking for a decline of about 4.2.  Jumping back to the chart, an hour hitting it. Less oil than you thought. That should cost them rising prices, and sure enough, it has, man. $57.50.  We'll see how that market shakes out. $57.50, and we were just at $56.80. Not that long ago. Wow. Yeah. Let's see what the market is doing. We're going to get to the story, folks. Speaking of commodities, man. You've heard the story, but this is like wild, man. So that's where we're at. The market wise, we get the Dow down 86, back up 11, S&P's flat. Speaking of commodities, how about the commodity of cocaine? Yeah, the commodity of cocaine, and the shipping, exactly. Man, this story. What you have here is that inside the shipping's wrecked cocaine bust. When you hear this, this is like wild, man. Just the gall that they go through, right? Yeah, totally. So on June 16th, the MSC Guy Ann was making its way into the Delaware Bay for a stopover at the Port of Philly when it was greeted by boats carrying a dozen U.S. armed customs and border protection and other federal agents. In the waters, agents climbed aboard and I guess they look at these containers to see, you know, the seals, right? The seals, yes. To see if the locks on the steel containers were intact. The seals didn't look right. They escorted the boat. The fleet that handles a significant share of the world's seaborn trade. It's owned by JP Morgan, by the way. And so sorry, I just lost. So the Port of South Philadelphia, early in the next morning seven of the boxes were X-rayed and open to reveal bails and bails of cocaine. It took them a week to weigh and document it all in all. Nearly 20 tons of cocaine on one ship. A ton's 2200 pounds, right? Yes, it is. Correct. And that's where they have almost 40,000 pounds. Basically, you know, it's remarkable. $1.3 billion They're talking about that. The largest seizure in the 230-year history. And so this is really where it gets interesting, right? In terms of we were reading through this whole article. It's absolutely wild. What it is, too, is the gall and, you know, like just... So it sends shock waves through the shipping world. It hit operations at one of the world's largest ship operators, rattled an arm of Investment Bank, JP Morgan, that owns the ship and raised questions about the security behind a business that on any given day there's millions of containers moving between the world's trading nations. And so smugglers have long used small planes. We all know these stories, right? And boats, trucks, etc. But so many ships go unchecked and other smugglers bring along container shields that look very close to the original ones, alright? So interviews with people familiar with the investigation for the affidavit that says, you know, how did they do this, okay? This is it. When did you hear this? According to the affidavit the MSC Guyane was approached twice by more than 10 boats in total while it sailed at night. In the Pacific Ocean? Yeah. Between Chile, Peru, and Panama. So they have 10 different boats pulling up to this boat at night. The ship's crane was used to bring the drugs on board two crew members stuffed the bales into containers holding other cargo. One crew member operated the crane to bring on numerous bales of cocaine that were wrapped in netting along with bales of cocaine were replacement seals which would be utilized in the containers. They need some better replacement seals, I would bet, and they were paid $50,000 each, the two crew members. Now, it goes on to state that I think there were eight people arrested in this, and that's what we're saying, you know, there is a skeleton crew at night on some of these ships. I think the ship itself only carries 23 people even though it's that big. Sure, sure. And at night when you're just sailing the boat's doing most of it anyway, you just need a couple of people on the deck probably making sure that everything's going well. And that they stop, maybe they don't even stop in the middle of the ocean and you get boats coming up and they think they're not going to get caught. But they've probably done it a million times. We only know when they do get caught, right? That's to say that I, I bet, um, the, yeah. And it looks like, now when we're reading this, it looks like folks that the destination wasn't even the United States, right? The destination was Europe. So Philadelphia was, this boat's only planned stop before the ship was due to head across the Atlantic Ocean and it was called in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, Antwerp, Belgium, Le Havre, France and the, you know, authorities believe European buyers were ready to take the cocaine distributed. So yeah, and, and shipping executives say the ship's role in one of the few South American services that connect to Europe. So you're going from South America, you're getting that to Europe. There's not many avenues that probably go especially when you're talking about shipping 40,000 pounds of drugs in one trip. I, I, I have a hard time I'd love to know like what is the next NACO movie we're going to see that send in this kind of month? They gotta have, they gotta have content creators at Netflix getting ready to make that, I hope so. I hope so. I want to see it, man. I do. Eight crew members have been charged and are being held in the U.S. Another 16, including the captain were allowed to leave Philadelphia, so eight are held that they aren't letting go. Yeah, so there's 24. And the 16 including the captain, they probably couldn't prove or weren't sure but at least eight of them they're not letting go. Now they may lose the ship, too. This is only a two-year-old ship. The world's second biggest container ship operated by Capacity Faces losses after paying 50 million in cash and bond to release the vessel after it was held for nearly a month and then it's saying the U.S. attorney in Eastern Philadelphia says the plan to seek permanent forfeiture of the ship and the ship's a 90 million dollar ship. It's only two years old. They picked a good ship. If you're trying to get 1.3 billion dollars of cocaine through the system you make sure that ship is running well. It is crazy, man. It makes your mind spin for sure. It does. And I guess it would kind of make sense when you have that much trade going through it's going to be really hard to catch everyone and if they get one package through you've managed to get 1.3 billion dollars worth of your product into Europe. Pretty crazy. Anyone that lives in a major port city just get out and look at the containers in your city. Never mind containers at major ports. We got them in Tampa. I mean, I see it. Tampa, Boston. I saw them in China. I mean, forget it. Tampa's small compared to some of them. But even Tampa's huge when you... So checking back on oil, seeing where we're heading. We're coming into that news at about $57.20. We're trading higher $57.59 currently in the price of that crew contract and I wonder if I still... we'll pull up the breakdown maybe after the break of all that oil breakdown, but higher prices. Yeah, let's go to Exxon. We'll see. Let's cut a little bit here. Yeah, let's go. We got still having a high time getting the price. I mean, it's up $0.50 right now. $0.57, but these... Not Chevron.

If you're in the CD market and looking for a secure investment, the Tiger First Mortgage Program may work for you. The security for these first mortgages are building lots in the Tax Opportunity Zone in St. Petersburg, Florida. The Tax Act of 2018 set up tax-free zones where you can build and hold for 10 years and pay no tax on the profits, which makes these lots valuable. The investment is anywhere from $30,000 to $75,000. The interest paid is 7% yearly paid on a monthly basis. According to bankrate.com, the best rate for a four-year CD in the country as of February 20th is 3.1%. A $50,000 investment at a normal four-year CD rate of 3.1% would give you income of $1,550 per year or $6,200 over the four-year period. That same $50,000 investment in the Tiger First Mortgage Program would give you $3,500 per year or $14,000 over the four years. What should you prefer? $6,200 or $14,000 of interest on your investment. If you'd like more information about the Tiger First Mortgage Program, you can call me at<PHONE_NUMBER>.

That's right. We love it. Each and every Wednesday, each and every day he's out there for us. Teddy Keg Snack, what's going on brother? Morning, thanks for that intro guys. Morning Teddy. I told Tommy in the middle of the week last week. You're going to get him studying man. You got me going man and I love it.  We got a lot to talk about today then. Where are we going? First we have the central bank marathon that I think everyone needs to be aware of. This week, the whole week, especially tomorrow, a very big ECB meeting. Then we have all the other central banks basically for the next two weeks that are coming out with either speeches or meetings and we definitely have some potential interest rate cuts on the table. Today the Euro was definitely impacted by the manufacturing numbers. Germany had its worst manufacturing numbers in seven years come out today. That's a big deal. Yeah, interesting. Huge deal exactly, especially with tomorrow's ECB meeting. That Euro, it's pressing that bottom there, right? It breaks that bottom is really going to be in trouble, right? Absolutely, absolutely. All that's going to come into play now because today we had Boris Johnson. He's now the new Prime Minister of the UK. So we have today with that, now we have these numbers that are right in front of the as he's taking control of the leadership they have a group from the EU that's coming to the UK to talk for a week with him about the Brexit deal. Can you imagine being in that room? Yeah, exactly a lot of nothing, absolutely. But with the ECB meeting tomorrow and these manufacturing levels I think that quantitative easing was something that we thought was going to happen in this meeting actually coming up tomorrow. Now they may actually cut a quarter point. So there's a good chance of seeing some kind of shake up with that central bank and then other central banks to follow over the next week and a half. Because Germany was really strong with these words last meeting and then if they're getting bad data since then, right? I mean that is pretty substantial. And Germany's the powerhouse over there anyway, right? So if Germany's coming down that's trouble and paradise flat out, right? And they're the biggest exporter out of the EU and so since they're export driven seven year low for production that's not a good sign. Not the booming market everywhere else. Pretty wild man, absolutely. You know what do you think that I was watching that Euro yesterday I guess it has to do with manufacturing I was surprised that the Euro was getting slammed more than the pound yesterday. I guess the market already knew that Johnson was going to be the dude, do you know what I mean? But it was really intriguing. Every time I keep looking at that I keep saying to myself it might not be that bad if the UK just decides that hey we're going man and you're going to make a deal with us. Pretty interesting you mentioned that because you're right the Euro had broke a little bit off the number this morning came back it's been down for a couple sessions but there's not much of a move going on. The pound however has set a short term bottom today they're up on Boris's inauguration or whatever you call it over there. So that's positive so the pound factor in the dollar index looks like it might be stabilizing whereas the Euro looks like it's going to lay on support a little bit so it's a little bit choppy with that but since you brought up those two currencies if you look at the Euro pound across right that market took a nosedive today. Interesting okay so the pound versus the dollar is gaining strength and probably I think over the next week or so because it needs a correction anyhow for it to rally it's been going down so hard for the past few months that it's set for a little bit of a pop you know nothing big but just a little bit of a profit-taking move you know. That's quite a chart.  Now okay so explain to us right now so what exactly does that mean? We got the Euro so right now it's at 89 cents yeah and so it's going all the way from what 85 cents since about April so has that been a strengthening Euro versus the pound Teddy? Correct yeah I see okay the only reason I really guess that quickly the pound has been in trouble over the last month and a half right with everything that's been going there so they should be weakening as it's been falling apart Theresa May's been out that would that would make sense still quite a move man definitely I get it and now that might be showing the actual turn because yeah the pound dollar has started the show kind of a bottoming thing but this market all of a sudden it's blasting down pretty cool breaking through support. That is cool that's I get it those relationships man pound strength yes yes exactly exactly pound strength on the back of course yeah right wild yeah it is wild you know this whole infrastructure deal it looks like I mean our economy is still going fine but they're going to cut rates man absolutely I wouldn't take that off the table because we've been talking for weeks about the Euro zone we're probably leaning towards a quantitative easing before cutting rates but with these numbers this is where now this is where you use a short cutting of rates when you have a number that comes out this bad yeah that's when you're like okay we've already been looking at a slowing of the economy now we have a major economic number that's when bond markets start to sway and that's when you start to have interest rate moves right now and you know it's like even on notes and bonds today even you know the S&P shook off negative it's only up two but guess what those notes and bonds won't stop man they're just buying them hand over fist man I mean it's like and I guess when we look back you know folks if you look back even 11 months you had the 10-year at 3.3 so if you're actually a bond fray when you're at 2.2 now that is one monster move it's a big move so now what's interesting is all these interest rate things that are going on they're all kind of working together so I think it's more than changing trends for the most part it's going to lift ranges either up or low you know depending on which currency cross you're talking about yeah so I think the only like the yen right now it's sideways I don't care what happens I don't think that thing is going to get a major bull or bearish correction to any degree you know so right except for now we do have a couple options out there the New Zealand dollar US dollar and the Australian dollar US dollar I think those are going to start to give you some swing trade opportunities and then as far as like looking for a gaging of pound direction you know like we have the dollar index look at that euro pound and watch that if that continues to erode pound strength versus the euro typically means it's going to be strong also with the dollar as well okay and that would be just convenient enough that you got Johnson saying I'm going to leave anyway and the pound gets stronger you know hey listen people who stop paying attention to that they're saying hey guess what the pound saying we're going to go make money because these poor people that had money in the pound I mean I saw them lose a fortune in the United States I happen to be right at the cigar bar with one guy who just bought the huge amount of land and hadn't bought them my changes money and overnight he lost 40 grand like that yeah man and that's small compared to I mean but it was big money for him definitely it was like oh yeah folks every trading day right here you can go to trading Forex forex-trading-unlocked.com that's forex-trading-unlocked.com check out

brought to you by Think or Swim for more information just click the think or swim banner on the front page of TFNN.com EIA crew numbers are 1030 right so you have that 10.8 million barrel miss and you want to take a look at you saw a draw in gasoline of 226,000 barrels the estimate was for a draw of 1.4 so a little bit of a reverse in terms of much less crude in the market we've seen some higher prices we'll jump back to that chart in a moment it's kind of impaired almost really where we were trading at prior to that number gasoline pretty marginal and they were looking for a decline so a little bit more gas they were looking for a build but they still got a build that's still telling me they're going to have a hard time holding oil up 57.35 that's your 10.30 bar we're basically right where we're trading at prior to that number no real impact because picture you get like gasoline you did have a draw down but bottom line is that you think with a draw of 10 million barrels of crude the draw down would be more substantial in gasoline because none of us use crude when the crude gets cracked you use the still you use the gasoline you use the plastic so here's the refinery utilization there was some storms I was reading through a couple things so the crude production 700,000 barrels a day huge miss on crude production this has to do with some of the storms refinery utilization down 1.3 estimate was for an increase actually so the refineries weren't really bustling crude production was down always interesting what goes into that so S&P's folks bottom line is that once I finish this ABC structure on the way up you know we're at 3,009 right now and 3,055 is the number we get Facebook earnings after the bell tonight? we do we get a monster we get a lot of them we get a lot I know but Facebook Facebook will move the NDX I think you got Google tomorrow as well let alone a plethora stay right there folks we get Fast Mac coming up next and we get our man Mr Basil Chapman Steve Rhodes Dave White I'll be back this afternoon yeah go get them folks


This is Witchbase news for Friday the 2nd of October 2020 I'm CMDR Buur In this weeks news, Horizons becomes part of the base game Community goals continue thick and fast with unique rewards Developer Diary 2 lands and blows the doors off of station interiors And there's a revealing developer interview online If you enjoyed this video remember to hit the thumbs up and subscribe to the channel So that you don't miss any of our future updates It's a bumper week of Elite News this week Here we go In a surprise post to the forums earlier this week Frontier announced that the erstwhile paid expansion to the Elite Dangerous base game, Horizons Was being what they describe as folded into the main game And would no longer be a separate paid expansion If you're one of the few Elite Dangerous commanders who hasn't taken the plunge with Horizons yet And there are people out there who haven't Then you're about to gain access to planetary landings, ship launched fighters, engineers, guardian technology, SRVs and more The decision to fold Horizons into the main game before the Odyssey expansion makes absolute sense for Frontier and for the player base At the very least it serves no one to have the players fractured across three different distinct products With space being the only common zone we'd all share The Horizons expansion becomes a free update on the 27th of October And when the change happens, pre-existing Horizon owners will be getting a free Azure paint job That fits every single ship in the game including the SLFs by way of a thank you When Frontier promised the return of Community Goals a few weeks back here at the pit We figured we'd see maybe one a month and honestly be happy with that Having gone from months of... let me just check the figures again Do you want to carry the two? Yeah, none a month It appears though that FD ever keen to keep the CG's coming at quite the pace And are currently at least frankly hosing the thirsty community down with CG's And not only that, they're paying out much more than just money As I speak these words, the CG that just ended to furnish the memorial ceremony of Harold Duvall with Rare Goods Is about to grant a 20% discount on all Gutamaya ships for a week Starting today, the 2nd of October And also pilots are being granted a system access permit to the Akanar system The very heart of the Empire without the need to gain reputation with the Imperials first We're betting here that there's a reason for that last bit A reason we don't yet know but a reason nonetheless There's clearly a story being played out here and Frontier want everyone to have access To whatever is about to happen in Akanar Pretty much as soon as last week's CG ended another one Continuing the plot sprung up with the engineer Liz Ryder Being linked to the Thargoid enhanced explosives That took down some Imperial stations at the start of all this This time around it's a combat focused event with two sides vying for power To either protect Liz or incarcerate her There is a unique and likely unavailable ever again missile rack Being offered for the protection of engineer Liz If you're in the top 75% of commanders participating As well as financial rewards The Imperial half of the event is just offering credits So the CG could go one of two ways But it's fairly evident what way Frontier would prefer it go And as of my speaking these words The CG's progress bar would seem to indicate That it is indeed going the way of protecting Liz The current CG runs until next Thursday Unless its goals are hit before then I wouldn't wait too long to get involved Just saying The first of a new series of developer diaries in the run-up To the release of Odyssey dropped just over a month ago now And whilst it made a splash It was generally agreed that the splash could have been bigger Clearly keen to ensure that they make a somewhat bigger splash Frontier released the second dev diary to a hungry community this week And without a shadow of a doubt A bigger splash was most definitely what they got The opening moment of the diary goes straight for the jugular And shows a bar area in the social space of an asteroid star pool With commanders standing and sitting around And ships flying overhead Oh thank you We're then quickly treated to armed commanders Walking toward an almost western style settlement town On a planetary surface And numerous internal shots of the settlement And star port sprinkled with concept art And work in progress animations and spacesuits And yeah that's a bit more like it The dev diary wasn't due to go live until Wednesday afternoon Local time But due to a slip up by one of Frontier's partners The diary accidentally leaked on Tuesday Rather than wait And then try to pretend it didn't happen The team were very quick to react And instead not only released the diary But went live on Twitch with an impromptu And actually really funny and quite self aware live stream Talking with the community about what they were seeing And answering some questions Of the printed press that did pick up on the release of the dev diary Most of it was honestly fairly forgettable But one article from Polygon appeared in the form of an interview With Odyssey's lead designer Gareth Hughes That is definitely worth your eyes Divalging as it does some very juicy details Suffice to say we've linked it below Frontier also answered a bunch of questions On their regular Thursday live stream last night And here at the pit We've also been granted access to some answers to commonly asked questions Which will be collating with everything we now know And breaking down in another video as soon as we humanly can So make sure you stay tuned for that Without a shadow of a doubt The hype train for Odyssey has left the station And is now solidly thundering towards its early 2021 release window What the next couple of diaries will reveal We can't wait to see That's it for now Thanks very much for watching We'll be back later this week with more videos Until then, 07 Commanders Follow the Greens on the way out And do keep clear of the toast rack We very much look forward to seeing you next time


but they're accompanied by the likes of Charlie McGilligan and another great singer-songwriter Gary Ferguson. Eric Walsh isn't there at all, but that track is nothing last and the album was put together by a good friend Donna and Joe Murray up in sessions in the house up there in Castle Dawson. And Jimmy you said there's another album from Donna and Joe. It's a compilation album? It's a compilation, sorry. We look forward to getting it. You got a copy, did you? Yeah. Oh yeah, I didn't get a copy. We need to see about that to me. Anyway, we'll sort that out a little later. We'll talk about that afterwards.


What two teams did Michael Jordan play for? Red Bulls and White Sox? Wait, you said Red Bulls? That's a good one!
