Euro at 105, he ends at 148 and the British pound is at 121 to one at US dollar. iPhone number's 877, 9276648. Give us a call folks. Wanna know what's going on in your world and the world of the S&P's, let's take a look at them. What we got out here is, this market's waiting for these job numbers tomorrow and I gotta feel these job numbers are gonna be light and this market probably wants to pop. So if we go back three days, right, what you had is that you take a look at it, you came back to the breakout area. We came back to basically, what is that, 80 million and 100 million on the spy and it came back with 105. Then yesterday we did 87. Now today you're doing 52, but what you had happen here also is that watch, you're doing 52, but this rejected a little price out here this morning. So let's go look at the futures, you see the futures. It looked like it could be a horror show this morning because the bottom line thing is down to 42.58 and then guess what? About 10, 30, 11 o'clock just started to take off. So it's at the top of the range right now. That's where we're sitting right now. That is gonna be predicated. I'm gonna go right to the dollar because this is just wild man.  The dollar had a one-way route on the way down today. Now I'm gonna bring this over because this is the picture. This is our man, Mr. Bud Rolves, right? The channel master. And what you wanna really get you had wrapped around on this. There's not so much, the channels are gonna be important because if we have one more down day we will break this channel. But what I want you to really look at is that since July, this is so unusual. Since July, every time that the dollar has pulled back you didn't have more than a two-day pullback. You know, look at this. Here, one day, rejected it, you hire again. Here it was only one day. Here it was one day. Here's two days. Here it was one day. Here, well I kinda count that. That's really one day. This is two days. That was like four days ago last week. And here's two days. So that's how strong the dollar has actually been running higher. So we'll see how this shakes out tomorrow because the jobs number comes out at 8.30. If this goes down another half a point you're gonna break the channel. Now what does happen when you break a channel line the bottom line is that way you're gonna go back up and test it. But we'll see how this shakes out, man. That's the bottom line. I'm gonna go right from the end of the bond market because they're all in correlation. In the 10 year bottom line, the cool thing like I'm looking and I'm saying, okay, has this bottomed? I mean, I thought it bottomed a couple weeks ago and it didn't. And it's like, okay. One of the things that you came down and you rejected lower price yesterday. But what's also happening is that you can't turn on any type of financial news without everyone just talking about bonds. So it's like, what are these deals? If you remember your targets and targets as we came to the one we did at the World Trade Center in Boston, the webinar, not the webinar, that was live actually. And I remember Tom Dorsey, when he started off, he does this deal with magazines. And as soon as the magazine, as soon as it's on the front page of the magazine, forget it, it's over, right? So it is intriguing that we're pretty close to that type of situation. The real kicker, though, is that do you just get a dead cat bounce and rates stay at the four and a half percent on the 10 year, or 4% even, instead of going like that. The sweet spot in the 10 year would be about three and a half to three. And what I'm saying, what I mean by that, folks, is that if you can get the 10 year down to that, what ends up happening is that that releases pressure on the marketplace, on the mortgage market, all of the above. You can see this 4.7 equals almost the seven and a half, this is almost eight mortgage, which is about as intense as you can get. Well, in this day and age, okay? Because the bottom line is that people, they're talking about the aspect, hey, this can get higher, they've been a lot higher. They were a lot higher, folks, when prices were a lot lower. The correlation about as intense as you can get, okay? We didn't have rates at eight and 10% when the normal house is like 400,000. The normal house, in fact, I'm gonna pull that up. I bet the normal house then was like 40,000, but probably 10 times more than that. We take a look at the gold contract, hasn't been able to get off the bottom. Gold contract, 158,000, they're not sinking it, but the bottom line is that hasn't been able to catch a bid to go to the silver contract, kind of the same set, well, it is the same setup, the exact same setup. And this market now is waiting for tomorrow morning, for sure.  The question is, is that how long are they gonna keep it sideways and how long are they gonna keep it tight?

Let's go into the NDX 100 and see the strength versus the weakness out here. So you got... Oh, is this a new one? What is this? Oh, no, a co-star group. Oh, we're going to pull that up. Co-star is up 3.3. You got Cellgene. Now, Constellation Brand is up 2. We're going to pull that up. Constellation Brand is up 2. Micron is up 1.7. Regeneron is up 1.6. Let's go to Co-star for a second. This is interesting. So Co-star, folks, okay? This is the big commercial... You know, I actually get a subscription to this thing. Let me see how this... The low 65, the high is 92. So for commercial data, this is kind of the best data you can get out there. So what is moving this thing? The commercial market is in a mess. Let's see. I don't know. Let's pull this up again. Take a look at this. Put this back on a weekly... Yeah? You know, the chat's not that a mess compared to what it is. Well, I guess, you know, what also ends up happening there is that it's like I'm on there for deals. So there's plenty of subscriptions that... Yeah, I can see how that works now. I can see how that actually can get bigger. Because the more the commercial property goes down, the more people are going to be hunting it, and that's the place you're hunting. So taking away from the NDX-100, you get Lucid down at 7. That baby's getting hit big. Holy cow, look at this. Let me see what's going on here. Yeah, they're getting taken apart. This... Right now, that's quite a move. That breaks 487, and that's going to be a real struggle, man. That gets... That definitely gets interesting. This one, where am I? Let's go to out at Peter in Park City. Peter, what's going on, brother? Hey, not much, Sam. How are you? I'm doing great, man, yourself. Hey, I had an observation for you, you might like. Cool. So I know you don't use... You use the kind of the Forex for, you know, the Euro and stuff, but I use the Futures Contract. Okay. So it's slash... Pardon me, slash 6E. You put that up on a weekly chart. You go back, March, I think it was 3rd or 6th of this year, there was like 2.2 million contracts. We just tested that. I mean, if this week can close above... What is it? 1.05275, I believe it is. That'll be a huge, you know, basically failure on the downside of price and volume. Check that out. Lovely to see you. I'm trying to pull up with you pulling up here in the Futures. One second, let me see. So the Euro, I know I can pull this up. Yeah, so it's nice to be able to use the Futures because you can get the volume. Yeah, no, totally. It's got to be the straight. It can't be the December contract. Yeah, I know that. One second, Euro. Okay. You know, well, here's a generic one. Yeah, I guess. So we're talking about 1.057 right now, close to that, right? In the Futures, we're like, yeah, 1.0577. So tell me what is the last two symbols you have? So think or swim is backslash 6E. 6E. Okay, I'll find what it is on here. But I see what you're saying, right? Go back to March. Yeah, it's March either 3rd or 6th. I can't remember exactly. But I stumbled on it over the weekend and I'm like, oh my gosh, this week it's totally going to close above that. I just know it. And, you know, we're 50 pips above it right now. Right. Right. There you go. This has been quite a ride, I know, man. I mean, that's about as intense as you can get. But I can see it. Yeah, you're right there, right? So that's also, let's look at this. That's interesting. That's a 50% retracement of the lowest, too. If they, you know, if we do start going higher again. Yeah, I mean, this run on the Dala has been amazing. You know what's amazing, Peter? The correlation, I just, we haven't seen a correlation like this in a long time, man.  The dollar up, markets down. And like today, we're on behalf of plenty, but yet, you know, the markets really, I'm not catching a bid, but that's the deviance inside the market, too, you know. I think I lost them. Do I get Tim? Yep, I'm here. Hey, what's going on? Sorry, a little bit late. Anyhow, I'm here. That's all right. We got out here, one second, one second, Tim. We got our man, Mr. Tim, more as we do every Tuesday and Thursday, folks. And you can get hold of Tim every trading day at odd-oracle.com. That's odd-oracle.com. And you know what, Tim? You know, it's so funny about that. I was listening to you, Tommy and Jacob. And I always say, odd-oracle. And I heard Jacob saying hyphen. I said, oh, that's what it's supposed to be, hyphen. Well, I appreciate the call-out. Absolutely. Kidding me? Where were you at Tuesday? I just couldn't make it. Yeah. All right. I just couldn't make it. Whatever. Yeah. But actually, I sent you over some charts. We can take a look at them. I got them. So we want to start with number one? Yeah. I actually flipped the chart four and five, which is on the F&P's. OK. No problem, four and five. Here we go. I get four right here. Yeah. Yeah, four. Because I think this is kind of an important area. I did get long last Thursday. Yep. And the top window is the 10-day average of the trend. Yes. And the chart goes back. It looks like about a year or so. And I just shaded the areas in pink when the 10-day trend got above 1.2. And over the last week or so, we're in that shade. Well, we only hit 1.19. This is not a perfect science. It's not like math. 1 plus 1 is 2. Yeah. But one point, I had a couple of different days there, or 10-day periods, where that ratio did hit 1.19. And I shaded that in pink. I'm in that vicinity right now. And usually, you're supposed to see panics happen when the trend is above 1.2 or near 1.2 and higher. And usually, when you get to a support area, that's where the panic should occur at, if actually that area is going to be support. Yes. So we got down to, I said in previous on your show, I thought the market had played pretty good support around that 120 area. And if that area is going to be support, that's when the 10-day trend should get up around 1.2 or higher. And sure enough, it is. Not saying the, you know, it can go a little bit lower, maybe. But anyhow, we're in the vicinity right now that it's a good place for the bottom to form, because there's a trend line across there. It's pretty much the previous highs, basically the highs of late or, looks like about August of 2022. Just stay there for a second. Well, and Tim, do you also remember, you know, when you were first saying where you thought the spy was going, you thought it was going to the 420, then it looked like it was going to hold at that 4, you know, 30. 32. But it hit the 420. Just stay right there, folks. Tim and I are coming right back. And barely missed that mark again in 2019, finishing at number two for the year. An amazing accomplishment.

We have the Dow Industries right now up eight Nasdaq is down two S&Ps off two. Okay, Tim, so we're looking at this S&P, the trend right now? Right, the S&P trend. And actually, yeah, we were talking on the show this round at 4.30, 4.35 on the S&Ps. And I listed just on a daily chart all the ticks and trend readings on those days in that range it was like 4.30 to 4.45 or something. I don't remember exactly what the number was. But the 10-day trend never got up to near 1.2. And so, and finally it did. And as we broke through below that 4.30 area, that's when the panic really started to occur. And that's when, you know, basically a 10-day trend, you know, that's two weeks of pretty much selling because that's, you know, two weeks is 10 days. No, no, I'm with it. And what I meant... Quite a bit of leaning on the sell button. Yeah, no, there's no doubt. And what I meant, you know, because do you remember at the beginning of this down draft you were looking for 4.20. And then the market was stalling, you know, and it was like, okay, man, I mean, we've all done the same thing.  You get the right number the right time.  And it's like, okay, here we go. But because it is intriguing. That number is intriguing because, you know, it comes back to the breakout area too, right? I mean, that's where it went. Yeah. Yeah. We're just basically testing a trend line. So I'm thinking this is pretty good. But now let's look at another chart. So there's more indicators here. Chart number five. Okay. Actually, the bottom window is what they call the Zag. Marty's Wag. He died. Yes. He was a brilliant, I don't know, trader or whatever. Yes. I don't know how much he made. He made a lot of money in the market. And he came up with his Wag breadth trust indicator. And I kind of put it on it. Anyhow, I simplified it a little bit. It's pretty close to exactly what his rules are. But what it is in general is the NYSE advancing issues divided by NYSE total issues. And you take a 10-day, I think it's a 10-day. It's not quite real. It's a 10-day average that ratio. When it falls below 40.40, 0.4, and rallies at 0.6, that's why you call it a Zag breadth trust. Okay. And that's coming off of a low. So you really plunge down. Yep. And then within 10 days, it has to get above 0.6. Right. And that happened in a 10-day period. And it has to go below 0.4 to 0.6 in 10 days. And the blue lines show the times, or blue arrows show the times that has happened. So we're 0.4 right now. But over the last couple of days ago, I think it got down to 0.36. So we did hit below 0.40. What I'm hoping for on this next rally, within 10 days of hitting below 0.4, hit above 0.6. Yes. If we do that, that'll be a Zag breadth trust. And those type of things that come at major market bottoms. Sometimes you get two or three. Sometimes you just get one. At that last low, you know, from May of 2022, May of 2022, to May of 2023, that happened twice. And I got it noted there. So that's the reason why it's kind of bullish in a minute term. That breadth trust happened twice in that region. So I'm hoping it happens now. It depends on this next rally. And with Tim... I also want to... Go ahead. You know, what Tim's saying here, folks, okay, this is so cool. You know, he does a lot with ratios.  And when that happens, you normally do see two or three monster moves. So this is really cool, man. I like these ratios you're doing, Tim. I mean, they're really cool, man. Because I think it smooths things out. You know what I mean? They take longer to basically come off. That would make sense, right? But the bottom line is that that's what you want. I mean, right? That's how it comes down, man. Yeah.  Yeah, exactly. I didn't send another chart. I got another send my chart. Just kind of show where the public is. I didn't send that to you, but maybe we'll cover it next week. But anyhow, this is what I'm kind of looking for. It depends on this next rally.  It's hard to say from any video. You're doing a good job. If we get one, then I'm thinking we're looking for, even though we may consolidate again, you know, to me that would be, we're going to bust through those little highs we had back in what, late 2021 or early 2022. I can't quite see where it is. But I think we'll bust through those highs and possibly head higher. But also another thing. So we got the bottom window, again, is the ratio of advancing issues divided by total issues. Take a 10-day average of it. Gets below minus 40. And also when the RSI, which is the second window down from the top, gets below 30. When that combination happens and those marked with the red lines there, you're usually looking at some, at least on a short-term basis, at least a short-term balance. So we're setting that to low just because the mark is too extended to the downside. And plus, you know, in chart four, we got a lot of panic on that decline.  But we're in the region of some sort of worthwhile low here. And what happened to that? And the jobs number, you know, comes out tomorrow at 8.30 in the morning. So, you know, the unemployment number came out today and that was light, man.  You know, but that jobs number is going to be important because the ADT number, AP, AP, you know, anyway, whatever number that was, it came out yesterday, that was also soft, but you never can really depend on that for the actual jobs number. Because if this jobs number comes in soft, this market's going to go because that'll be saying that the Fed is basically done, you know, and then we'll see, okay, where the interest rate structure goes. You know what I'm saying? So that's going to be intriguing. Yeah. Well, I'm thinking, so it could be already baked into the cake here.  You've got panic. You've got this, you know, breast, his white breast, you know, but the selling out to the top kind of go lower, maybe. But usually it's where it's soft, especially when the RSI's, you know, hit below 30.  That's what I'm thinking. But, you know, if that could really produce a decent rally, though, and that his white breast for us hit 60, you know, I'm bullish until year-end because I think you'll have some minor consolations, but in general I think this market will work right higher all the way into December. And that's what's so cool about it hitting 60. So I can see what you're talking about for sure, man. Because then, and what happens technically on that, folks, is that the first rally coming off the lows, the people at a shot won't cover it. Then you get another rally. It's like, then a lot of people cover it. Then you get the next rally that everyone has to cover it. Yeah. So, yeah. Tim and I are going to be coming right back, folks. You stay right there. We have the Dow, Industrial's down five, NASDAQ's up five, S&Ps are up four. We'll come right back.

And it looks like everyone's waiting for this jobs number tomorrow morning. So, okay so where would you like to go Tim? All right. Let's go to one. Okay. One. Yep. I got you. Back to 2012. Okay. And it's a bottom window indicator which is a GDX up-down volume percent with a 50-day average. And the circled red stuff there is when that indicator got below minus 20. Yes. And if you go up to the top window which is GDX when that thing hit that bottom indicator hit minus 20 the market actually went most times went sideways if not down a little bit. Last time this happened was in August of 2022. It went down probably looks like about three, four months before the rally actually started. And the minus 20 hit back on I think it was June, June 13 of 2003 this thing hit minus 20. So, now that's higher than where the price is now but if you look at the previous time it happened the market kind of skidded down for another few months before the rally actually began. So when this indicator hits below minus 20 I usually say these declines over either flips sideways to minus 20 down that's exactly what's happening. So, so now okay let's flip to Sony, I had June 13th he had four months with October. We've gone sideways for about almost four months. Yeah, we have. No, I can see that. Yeah, put the charge to Okay. This is kind of a blown up chart. The blue areas are when this indicator is above I think it was minus or zero but this is above zero and when it's just non-color when the indicator is below zero. Okay. But you know what just happened it was July or August of 2022 you flip sideways for six months then of last year that June 13th timeframe the market went sideways for four months and we got a signal here June 13th 23 so we're basically gone sideways for four months and the indicator has dropped down below a low level similar to what happened in 2002 that's if you go back to the bottom of the chart that indicator I just circled in red Yes. something similar so I'm thinking we're doing okay I mean the market's supposed to be doing previously was down in the past so I flipped a chart three. Okay. Now now there's a little bit different indicator still the GDX up-down volume but it's an 18-day average and the next one above it is the indicators and what I want to point out here is the positive divergence what happened you can take these positive divergence all the way back to 2012 the same thing happens every time the GDX makes lower lows and both those indicators make higher lows and I pointed those out with red arrows Yes. so they really get this rally going you need to get above minus 10 last two rallies it didn't hold came back down one more time but this when the you know the previous on page one of this indicator you know market flipped sideways for you know four or five sometimes six months so we're in a four month time frame right now so we're due for this indicators both these indicators to get above minus 10 and actually stay above minus 10 I put my newsletter last week by options last Thursday okay a little bit higher than where we are right now but the odds still say I'm probably price wise pretty good price wise about out December December okay so I got plenty of time I think even though this market with those a little bit lower over the next week or two time wise we're pretty good we're pretty close for these two indicators to get above zero to wait and see if I'm right or not we'll be talking about if I'm wrong or right I guess you know we need Tim we need some kind of like a drink that gives us all patience actually when I was younger I didn't have patience for all this crap you know oh listen man I remember saying to you on the air in like 96 man like yes you're coming like you're saying a month and a half there's a month and a half man what are you talking about I mean I have patience now I have big patience now you know you'll learn it over the course of years but I remember that so well man like a month and a half I mean it's like what yeah but that's where the big money's made that's where the big money's made sometimes I'm a little bit early on these trades and sometimes you know I never probably will be cured of that I've nailed the lows within a day or two mostly that's been locked but a lot of times I got as long as I got the bigger trend right that's right I mean I'll be okay that's right and particularly because what happens folks these gold stocks get so low and I know plenty of it own gold stocks I mean because you can get a double in about a heartbeat you can get a double like in 10 days you know when you know five or 10 bucks they go in about 10 to 12 days and then they'll go even further but that's how fast they come off the bottom because the market's so small this gold market is so small man I mean it's tiny and you know in correlation to the amount of shares that are outstanding the market caps all the above you know so right and you know over the last couple years you know we've been going up and down but it's just been garbage moves that's right we're going to leave everybody behind you know everybody's going to go everybody's going to sell and the market is going to keep going yeah we had 20 at some point that's going to happen again yeah it happened in 2000 happened in 2000 well in 2010 it was basically a top went straight down but that was a trending market and so we're due for another trending market at some point you know right and because garbage moves over time have led to impulse ways you know you've got to figure out what impulse ways are going to go yes so I'm thinking this one is kind of lining up to the upside well at last I don't know you know but we're due for a big breakout you know you know hanging all the time highs here and the equity market or the gold GDX market you know it's just kind of been garbage it's just been set and low and not doing very well and you get short-term bounces at last you know maybe a month or two right back down again so I don't know we'll have to wait and see remember the good old days you know you got to you know you bought these 25 sit you know gold stock that went to teens and 20 I know man yeah so between you know a garbage stock it turned into a garbage stock but Coeur d'Alene I remember I bought that at 30 cents I think I sold those 20 bucks 15 bucks and then of course I had BGO buying around a quarter right and I sold it and a teen like a 10 or 11 or something like that which is the same I was extremely happy

down seven as a cuff ten S&P's off five let's get a fill in Montana Phil what's going on brother I was just wondering if Tim had similar depictions in silver or I don't know about platinum I haven't heard he never mentioned that I'm just wondering well I will kind of picture in the complex as a whole what normally happens Phil is that the complex does move together yeah I mean particularly silver and gold you know I mean they almost go step-by-step the difference is silver is highly volatile meaning that it'll go up faster and it goes down faster you know platinum platinum is kind of its own deal different ballgame but silver and gold they move together man you can see their trots together the whole ball of wax you know the volatility is pretty intense I'm just wondering if all of his his oscillators kind of depict the same thing of you know what do you call them you know I'm with that and I'll ask him but I know him well enough that he is very focused and the stuff that he's focused on he stays right on that you know what I mean you know like I look at doll I look at bonds and all that but you can see his ratios once he gets something that works for him and he has those ratios he just stays right with that so yeah yeah I know pretty cool huh yeah I know for sure yeah but you know have a good one yes have a great one man have a safe one so what has happened what does happen folks okay I mean right from I've been doing you know the metals now for 22 years and silver and gold move together you know silver is much more volatile you know you're going to go up fast you're going to go down faster out of nowhere actually you know the big problem still like you know what happened let's do this quickly in Mexico today the airports the government came in after the airports taxing the airports the Mexican government right is not friendly right now to mining concerns that's why those you got to be careful with those Mexican stocks and that used to be the best place to that basically you know buy Mexican stocks for you know gold and silver because they've been around so long have a great one folks have a safe one come back and visit Tommy tomorrow morning great show folks well look at them


So I don't necessarily think that the media has learned all of the lessons that they should have after four years of Donald Trump But I will say that there has been some progress, right? I mean the fact that there was even a conversation about whether or not it was Responsible for CNN to host a town hall with Donald Trump It does demonstrate that we're at least Cognizant of the fact that these are not normal times and Trump is not a normal presidential candidate But when it comes to other candidates the media has missed the mark for the most part not all media But in a lot of instances you still see this liberal yearning to accept all GOP candidates who are not Trump as Legitimate just because they're not Trump when that's really dangerous, right? I don't know why they do this perhaps for fear of losing access or accusations of bias towards the GOP But either way sometimes you've just got to call a spade a spade and you should especially do that when said spade has Identified themselves as such and I'm of course talking about Rhonda Santis now despite him being one of the most openly Authoritarian fascists in the Republican Party Many people in the mainstream media and even independent media Continue to gush about him simply because he is seemingly more normal than Donald Trump Here's a couple of examples. What is evident even after just This limited amount of time in your company is that you are a competent orator that you are a successful Politician that you are very appealing that you've succeeded in Florida But I was glad to see him sit down outside of his bubble because then it helps them look more electable I mean it's one thing to do a Joe Rogan interview or kind of the fringes It's another thing to sit down with a consummate journalist And I think today he was able to handle those questions and deal with them and although I don't I don't believe in his policies per se But he actually looked decently presidential today liberals stopped normalizing fascist challenge impossible They just they have to now those two short clips are really a microcosm of a broader issue that I'm seeing Where liberals try to convince themselves that the scientists isn't really that bad because he's more respectable and articulate than Donald Trump And to be clear many mainstream and independent media pundits have I think adequately assessed the danger level of Ron DeSantis But still you see this Overall effort maybe not necessarily an effort but this sense from a lot of pundits to try to sanitize his record and sanitize him Simply because he's not Donald Trump and that is very dangerous.  That's absurd I want somebody who's more respectable But DeSantis has also tried to tell us who he is But there's so many people who don't want to listen to what he's saying although some people are definitely listening and They're picking up on the clues that he's leaving for them, but mainstream media pundits. It's some independent media pundits I'm looking at you Jimmy Dore. I'm looking at you Russell Brann Aren't taking the hint that other people are taking for example Nazis who support Ron DeSantis seem to have a pretty good idea of his motivations As do his staffers who retweeted then deleted this video of DeSantis and a Nazi symbol Imposed over a flag of Florida with soldiers marching towards it That's where we're at where they're using Nazi imagery in his presidential campaign If that's not a red flag then nothing is now they deleted it, right? So it was clearly a mistake on the part of his staffers, but I mean you can't really blame them for thinking that he would like that when You know, he taps people like this for their policy expertise I'm talking about the holocaust, but the Jews own everything. I thank God for slavery Hmm, I thank God for the crack house if it wasn't for the crack house Come on somebody God wouldn't have never been able to use me how he can use me now and if it wasn't for slavery I Might be somewhere in Africa worshipping a tree as the video stated that was Kim Daniels an openly anti-Semitic preacher Who DeSantis placed on his African-American history task force in other words? She is helping DeSantis shape education for Florida for all of Florida And you can already see the effect that she's having because as Chris Walker of Truthout explains The Florida Board of Education has approved new curriculum standards for lessons on black history that a racial justice Advocates and educators say will whitewash the brutality of white supremacy and slavery in the United States The board will now require teachers to tell middle school students that enslaved people gained a personal benefit from the skills They learned under slavery before civil war. Yeah, so that is gonna be a huge yikes from me Apparently in Florida saying that slavery was unequivocally bad is a bit of a hot take I guess right Don't want to be too unsharedable to these slave owners want to make sure that you tell them. Oh, they also taught them skills I mean for that matter. Are we going to? Talk about how the Nazis They weren't that bad I guess because they let the Jewish people who they abducted keep the clothing that they had on their backs What are we doing here? Why are we doing this is the question that people should be asking and I think that we all know why it's a rhetorical question because we all know the answer and Marilyn McGar who's another dissent is appointee responded to the backlash saying actually We're proud of the changes that they made that they made where we're going to force teachers to tell middle schoolers about the benefits of slavery But I mean maybe this task force all of these appointees that dissent is himself decided to put there Went rogue and they decided to do what he didn't want them to do Perhaps he wouldn't approve of these changes right actually wrong because he defended this change in particular You should talk to them about I mean I didn't do it and I wasn't involved in it But I think I think what they're doing is I think that they're probably going to show Some of the folks that eventually parlayed You know being a blacksmith into into doing things later in life But the reality is all of that is rooted in whatever is factual They listed everything out and if you have any questions about it just ask the Department of Education You can talk about those folks But I mean these were scholars who put that together It was not anything that was that was done politically. So he's okay with it interesting You know, I don't know what you call this right? What do you call someone who says that they are okay with teachers being forced to tell students the benefits of slavery? After they already banned an AP African-American studies course from the school curriculum. What do you call that person? Hmm? Maybe it rhymes with Macy's I I don't know if I could think of the accurate descriptor that's charitable Of course because we've got to be charitable to these folks. I'll let you know. It's just what are we doing? It's so ridiculous now his campaign also boosted an ad that portrays him as the most homophobic and transphobic GOP candidate and that video stood out to me not only because I was in it, but because of how brazen it was Right now it happened again I'm in another Rhonda Santis ad along with the leftist mafia and other leftist content creators like Farron Cousins and David Pakman and like that last ad that we talked about in a different video not gonna rehash that you can watch what I said about that I'll link to it down below, but anyways like that last ad they basically play clips of us talking about how DeSantis is worse than Trump because he's more capable and smarter than Trump more cunning than Trump So here's an example Just so you kind of get a sense of the way that that ad goes because it's five minutes So we can't watch the whole thing. So just here's like a little snippet So you get the crux of the ad honestly believe the scientist was forged in hell There's no doubt in my mind look at my face We think DeSantis is more dangerous than Trump to some degree because he's less incompetent If anyone out there thinks somehow he is any better than Donald Trump, then they don't know Ron DeSantis If you thought Donald Trump was bad, you've got another thing on me He may actually be able to do a lot of the things Trump merely wanted to do but failed to do DeSantis is somebody who will work in the dark work in the shadows He will still accomplish what Trump wants to accomplish Maybe he's gonna do things in a quieter manner, but believe me the end result is not gonna be good But he will do so successfully because he's not over the top. He isn't in your face He doesn't have a lot of baggage. So I mean you get the point, right? They're trying to take these criticisms and own it. Oh, you think that I'm scary That's right. You should be scared of me because unlike Trump I can actually get things done and that is basically the essence of the ad But there's a couple of correct criticisms in there I mean all of those criticisms are correct but there's a couple of criticisms on there that go a little bit further and You would think that the team wouldn't want to own these Particular criticisms considering the fact that they detailed the threat that DeSantis poses to democracy and his authoritarian tendencies But they included this in the ad as if it's a good thing.  He's running More to the extreme Then Trump on several issues the guy who will wield power in a way that extends even beyond what Trump did authoritarianism That goes even beyond what Trump has talked about those little tidbits were sprinkled in towards the end of the video But I mean they're broadcasting these criticisms and they're owning it right his team is effectively saying yes We are all of these bad things. We're your worst nightmare, but also yeah, we do pose a threat to democracy We want you to know that DeSantis is an authoritarian I mean if the policies weren't evidence enough here's us admitting effectively in a roundabout way that yes He does pose a threat to democracy in the same way that Trump does be fearful of us This is what DeSantis's team is broadcasting to all of us. They're saying look They all think he is a threat to democracy Tee he Because he is Now, let me be extremely clear in case my words are used in another ad by his team Hi everyone if you're watching Ron DeSantis isn't just a fascist Ron DeSantis is a hitlerian fascist use that in an ad That's a good sound, but I think right just own it You're already basically saying it just come out and say it Ron DeSantis is a hitlerian fascist and he's proud He's proud that he models his governing style after demagogues like Victor Orban and Literal Nazis during World War two and I'm not saying that he's like a carbon copy of Hitler, right?  He's your guy He is unquestionably the closest to you ideologically his team has made that clear. That's not what I'm saying That's what they're saying so rather than seeing the good in him If you're a mainstream media or independent media pundit because he's not Donald Trump See what's actually there When we remove Trump from the equation because that matters to right when people tell you who they are We should believe them and Ron DeSantis has repeatedly told us all who he is He is an authoritarian fascist because he wants to do bad things in particular to marginalized people and consolidate power But yet we don't listen to him when he repeatedly tells us who he is simply because he's not Donald Trump But let's listen to him because if he's this brazen now when he's trying to get elected Imagine how bad he's going to be After he's elected. So if you're a neo Nazi, I'm sure has repeated dog whistles to you make you feel really warm and fuzzy But to the rest of society We should take that as a serious warning that we're in danger if this individual gets elected But yet if you're Russell Brand or you are Bakari sellers or your other mainstream media or independent media pundits He's not Trump. So he's smart He's good not Trump. So that's all that matters Look at the bigger picture, right and also look to history because if we don't learn from history, we are doomed to repeat it Ideology


One, two. OK, let's start. So today we wanted to present some results of the performance testing of Hadoop on top of OpenStack. And I want to introduce colleagues presenting together with me. So Nikita is a software engineer at Mirantis running the Sahara team now and working primarily on Sahara. Paul Work is an OpenStack software lab manager at InTool. And I am principal engineer at Mirantis working on Sahara and XPTL of Sahara project. So a few words about the agenda. We are going to take a look a bit on a Sahara project in OpenStack, on the performance lab setup and challenges that we got during the testing, the overview of the testing itself, and some conclusions. So some disclaimers always. First of all, way to run Hadoop in the cloud. There are some pros and cons, as always. And to the pros, we can talk about a few items. First of all, it's a controlled infrastructure when you can deploy through the API, easily orchestrate different distributions over the data processing frameworks, such as the Hadoop, Spark, and et cetera. You can use it for dynamic resource utilization, for example, to use the spikes of the labs to enable additional data processing workloads. And thanks to the isolation in the cloud, you can run a multi-user in multi-talented environments like to share the single Hadoop cluster between the tenants and the users and enable mixed joint workloads on the another plus using virtualized environments in a cloud. You can run multi-version Hadoops on the same infrastructure with isolation on all levels. And they will not use resources for another cluster, for sure. And there is security additions by running, for example, them on different networks. So you can run vanilla Hadoop, for example, cloud data or Hortonworks distribution or some other distributed frameworks on the same cloud. And in addition to it, it helps you to share data across the cloud applications because you have all of the data available through the same API on the cloud. So as always, we have some drawbacks of using Hadoop in the cloud. The first of all is the performance overhead. And it's very important because we're going to have overhead on a CPU and network, for sure. And this overhead should be captured as one of the cons for running Hadoop on the cloud. The schedule became non-trivial when you're moving Hadoop to the cloud because you need to still manage the affinity of the data to the compute part. And you need to ensure that all of your data will not be stored on the same hardware node to enable the replication of HDFS, for example. And of course, when you have a large number of VMs on a single physical node, it will create some additional performance overhead. And it will make the affinity case even more complex. So there are already some existing solutions running Hadoop in the cloud. Mostly all popular public clouds currently have something related to the big data, and specifically to the Hadoop part. So here we can see likely the most popular of them, the KMR Google Cloud Platform with their Apache and Spark workloads in Azure. And if we're going to take a look on the private clouds to OpenStack specifically, we can use a Secure project. It's an official OpenStack integrated project, enables data processing services and data processing from frameworks provisioning. So using Secure, you can provision frameworks on to OpenStack and enable the data processing API. So you can choose a different distribution of Hadoop and other frameworks using Secure with their versions. The cluster topology could be specified as well. You can specify the cluster and node group in plates through Secure to enable different setups of set of processes to run on each role of the cluster. And you can specify any kind of the configurations to all the processes you're running on a type of Hadoop cluster. So a few words about Secure architecture. It's a very complex picture, probably not clear at all. So in a few words, the main points is that Secure provides the REST API. It's backed by the Keystone for authentication. And through Python Secure client and CLI, you can interact with Secure. As well, we have the horizon dashboard, the Secure dashboard and the horizon that enables all the API functionality through Vubui. We have integration with different data sources, such as HDFS, VIFT, and you can use Manila for the shared file systems. So Secure using HEAT as a provisioning engine for the underlying resources. And that's like transparently uses Novaglance, Indoor, Neutron, and other services to provision the underlying resources on top of OpenStructure run Hadoop cluster. So I will switch to Folk. So about a year ago, we were very interested in learning more about OpenStack and performance for some big data applications that our software developers were working on. And we partnered with Morantis Folks to set up this experiment project to demonstrate the functionality of Sahara and the performance possibilities with the direct block storage. To do this, we set up in one of our labs in Oregon a small, clustered environment with 12 identical servers, all connected through a 10 gigabit switch, which was then connected through a VPN appliance to the internet, which allowed the Morantis Folks to come in over the internet to perform their testing and experimentation. And it took us a little bit of a learning curve to get this set up and functioning normally. But after a short period, that was very successful for us. Each of these servers was configured identically with two of the Intel Xeon E5-2699 v3 processors. These are codenamed Haswell processors. Each of these has 18 cores running at 2.3 gigahertz. We also configured these servers with 192 gigabyte of RAM in 12 16 gigabyte sticks. And they each had 24 SATA hard drives, standard 1 terabyte each 7,200 RPMs. In order to get maximum possible performance out of the hard drives, we set up each server with three RAID controllers set into pass-through mode. And then we also had one SSD boot drive, 800 gigabyte size, and a dual port 10 gigabit NIC on the motherboard. To communicate all this together, we used an Extreme Networks Summit Switch, the X650 variety, and then the Comcast external uplink on an isolated network. And this preserved security so that no one else could hack in. And the Miranda folks also couldn't get into the rest of the Intel internal network. And with that, I'll turn the time over to Nikita to talk about their experiments and their results. Thanks, Paul. First of all, I'd like to briefly describe what the software stuff was running on this service. So we had the Ubuntu-based controller and compute nodes running Ubuntu 14.04. Actually, the virtualization was backed by QMN QVM version 2. And the OpenStack distribution was based on Miranda's OpenStack 6.8, which is the June release of the upstream branches. So of course, in the testing, we have faced a few of the architectural challenges that we needed to solve to reach the reasonable level of performance. I'd like to highlight the three of them, which was the CPU-to-RAM utilization on the virtual environment. So we should keep the CPU and RAM as much utilized as it is on the hardware nodes while running Hadoop workload. We had to somehow solve the storage issue so that the Hadoop demons could read from directly those 12 drives on each compute host without network or other overhead. And of course, we had to tune the Hadoop distribution itself to be able to maximize the utilization of both CPU and RAM and network. So the key to the proper CPU and RAM utilization is keeping the ratio persistent across your nodes. So each VM should have the equal amount of RAM to CPU core to allow the yarn containers to be spawned consistently. Then what we've noticed is that the VM flavor really matters. And you do not want to stack up a lot of small VMs on a huge compute host to generate affinity. And then the actual affinity issue, which could result in a data loss. So the data nodes should be aware of where they are running or single compute host or on different compute hosts. So as for the utilizing the resources and keeping the balance, well, there is no single solution to how you should tune your OpenStack or Flavor. All the workloads are different. And it's always true that adding CPU power will allow you to spawn more yarn containers and to run more tasks in parallel. And for workloads like Spark, Streaming, or MapReduce, that's usually the key. But for more balanced workloads, which you use also, the IO and some caching, you should need at least 2 gigabytes of RAM per vCPU core. So our final flavors had 32 virtual cores and 64 Gibbs or RAM for each data node and yarn storage VM. As the results show, that when running the KVM virtual machine, it will usually consume 5% to 20% more RAM than you allocate to your guest memory. So that, again, gives us the hint that you should try to avoid spawning smaller VMs, which of course allow more flexibility in your scheduling. But a larger VM will give you less overhead. And you should never over-commit your resources while running heavy workloads. Otherwise, you're just going to end up with a race for the resources while not running the workload. The typical anti-fint use case is when you try to spin up the Hadoop cluster with an HDFS service. And if you just leave the node with the standard filters, it can easily allocate your VMs with data nodes on the same compute host. And by default, the replication factor is set to 3 in HDFS. So once you lose the compute host number one, and if you had all the three replicas on it, of course, you will lose some of the blocks. So the card doesn't allow this to happen. And it will always place at least one of the replicas outside on a different compute host, so outside of the first one. Next, I'd like to cover some storage sections that we used to optimize the performance. So the things you should pay attention while setting up these workloads, Hadoop-like workloads, for batch processing is the locality of your storage devices. Because Hadoop was initially designed with the locality in mind. And the closer the device is to the data processing unit, like your container, the better the performance is. Of course, you should not forget the reliability of this storage replication and backup is always a thing to be considered. And of course, from the operator's perspective, the ease of setup of the storage should not be forgotten. Because otherwise, why should you go to the cloud if it's harder to set up than the hardware server? So as for the storage for the cloud, there are three popular solutions at the moment. So we would categorize them into these areas, like first one is the safe, or actually any other distributed backend, which is connected to the compute node via the network interface. And can store the data across the safe cluster or any other clustering system that you use. The next one is the LVM partitions, which can be stored locally and remotely. And those partitions are usually attached via the ISCSI protocol to the VM. And the last one is the local device storage, which is the approach that Cinder allows to have attaching the real block device directly to the VTIO bytes of the VM. So if you look at the diagram shown these three approaches, you can clearly see that in first two cases, there's always a possibility that you are going to have the network interaction to read from the storage in safe and LVM, while the block device driver in Cinder will guarantee you that the devices you are attached to the VM are always local to on the same compute host. There are always drawbacks for each of these approaches. But what I would like to point here is that the block device driver, which was used for the testing, has no network traffic impact at all on the cloud. And it has no CPU impact on the compute host. So the block device driver doesn't require any ISCSI or LVM managers running. Of course, there are drawbacks, like it doesn't support live migration, and you can't evacuate your block device from the compute host, or it doesn't allow a flexible scaling, so the whole device is utilized all the time. So that was the OpenStack configuration setup required for the testing. And now we'll just go through what are the configurations done to the Sahara part. First of all, we had to do the Hadoop distribution choice. And then once we have a Hadoop distribution, we need to set up the topology to deploy, and finally configure the locality and the services on the Hadoop distribution. As for vendor choice, Sahara supports the different vendors of Hadoop distributions. And we also have the vanilla plugin, which installs the upstream Hadoop package. For this testing, we were using a Clouder Hadoop. The topology of our cluster was basically the three node group templates based on their role separation. So the smallest node group template was running the manager, and it was used only on the provisioning phase. The master template was running all the Yarn and HDFS master process, and Hive and Zukiper to run other coordination stuff and the Hive queries. The rest of the cluster was occupied by the worker node groups, which were running node managers with data nodes. And those had only the local disk attached as the storage. So totally we had 12 worker VMs grouped to on the compute host. So six compute hosts were completely utilized with the workers. And one was running the master VM and the manager VM with the fmrl storage. So to sum up, the layout of the flavors looked like, as already said, 32 vCPUs for 64 gigs of RAM. And we used some extra root disk storage for the workers for the temporary files, which are required by the Yarn containers. All the VMs had their swap disks disabled and were connected to that 10 gigabit internal network. And the volumes were used only on the worker nodes. So once the cluster is provisioned, the Hive configuration should be done to the Yarn and HDFS servers. And it's always important to know that any Hive distributions comes already configured with some default settings. And those default settings are pretty much allowing you to run some small tests. And they are consistent. And they are working. But they will never give you the best performance utilization of your cloud or bare metal. And please do not try to achieve the performance while running on the default distribution settings. So I'd like to briefly go through the configuration settings we did for the Yarn service. Here you can see that there are actually two groups of configuration options. First one is related to MapReduce framework. And what it basically says is how many CPUs and how many gigabytes of RAM you can allocate to each map and reduce task. And then you also see that there are similar configurations, but for the Yarn service. And those are telling the Yarn framework, which is an underlying framework under the MapReduce that how many gigabytes and cores should be allocated to the containers in which the map and reduce task running. The optimizations for the HDFS were not so significant. We just increased the read-ahead parameter so it could cache more data while reading the data into the memory. And the block size for the testing was also significantly increased from 64 megabytes. So it will be used for the synthetic testing. So in different workloads, again, the setting may be different. We also disabled the HDFS permissions just to ease the access to HDFS. But this is not a huge impact on the performance. And this shouldn't be strictly considered for not running on the production with permissions disabled. So what did we use for testing? Well, we took the very standard Hadoop benchmark, which is TheraSort. It's a three-phase synthetic benchmark. And all of these three phases are putting some components under stress. But first of all, of course, it is the data generation step, which uses a lot of describe operations, writing some random 100 byte strings to the HDFS with random values. Then the actual TheraSort benchmark comes into play. When it reads all the random values, splits them into chunks, then sorts them by key. And the entries with the same key sources by value. And after that, it stores them in sorted fashion. All, of course, replication of the output also comes into play. So there's a lot of network traffic being generated at this phase. And the last one is the validate hash-based validation of the TheraSort, which you usually can just put the disk read operation as stress. So now we're coming to the actual results of your view. So basically, we did maybe a few tens or hundreds of runs for each of these benchmarks. And here are the one terabyte benchmark results collected for the virtual machines compared to the same setup on bare metal. So the bare metal performance was about 15 to 16 minutes sorting one terabyte, while the VMs were somewhere around 20 minutes. The same test for the three terabytes showed that bare metal can complete it under the 50 minutes, while VMs were getting close to one hour in average. And while judging by this simple execution time of the benchmark, we can just say that in a balanced workload, the bare metal machines could complete it in 15% to 20% faster than VMs. But this conclusion makes more, asks more questions than it gives answers. So we collected some CPU and other metrics to analyze for the future. So first of all, the CPU utilization graph, which shows that both map and reduce phases look quite similar on bare metal. And the VM setup, there is a down spike when the shuffle phase happens. And there is not much CPU power used when the data is transferred across the nodes. The RAM utilization for the VMs and bare metal also show that the phases pretty much match up. But the bare metal nodes seem to utilize more RAM on each of the phase, even that's taking into consideration that running two VMs on the same node is not equal to running this single node on the same stress test. We still see that the VM is better utilized on bare metal. As for the network traffic, we actually see the opposite picture that the VM tests could generate a lot more traffic across the cluster. On the middle phase, which is the shuffle phase of the MapReduce job. And so looking at all of these three together, we just can see that probably the CPU utilization was quite high in both cases. And it's not a bottleneck to this 20% gap. But RAM consumption and significant network traffic are the areas that need to be investigated further for bringing the VM performance closer to bare metal. So what are our conclusions so far for this comparison? First of all, the Sahara service and the OpenStack components proved to be able to provision and run the Hadoop distribution properly on the virtualized environment because fitting the VMs with the scheduler fields, with the regular scheduler fields, so no additional development was required for that. We also learned that actually bringing the large VMs with more CPU cores and more RAM onto the huge node gives the better performance and better utilization. And the Cinder and Nova APIs are just perfect for that. They also learned that the Cinder block device driver could completely remove the network overhead from the storage layer. And it was also quite easy configurable on the compute hosts, so running the Cinder volume process. So what is the next steps? What are we going to proceed is, first of all, the better tuning of CPU disk and network should allow to close that 15% to 20% gap between bare metal and virtualized so that we need to continue the investigating on that. Also, there is an ironic case when, in some cases, the installation to bare metal may be still an option, even in the cloud environment with the ironic interfaces. But at the moment, the user interfaces for ironic and hard integrations are not that good. So the UX improvements should be done. And the third case to investigate here is the hybrid approach when part of the head of cluster can be stored on bare metal. And it can handle the long-living data and the persistent data that shouldn't move a lot while the workloads can run on the VM spawned on the same hardware on the nearby hardware to complete the burst to spiky workloads and then scale down back to bare metal. So that's actually what we wanted to share about our scale testing and performance testing of virtualized head of environments. So please, if you have any questions, you're welcome. Just a very quick question. Did you guys look at why the RAM utilization did go up with the VMs? OK, so what we think could cause this RAM utilization on hardware nodes is that the Java garbage collection works slightly different on the huge amounts of VMs. So the log manager demon was running on 64 gigabytes in virtualized and on 128 gigs on hardware. So that might cause the difference in consumption. Probably the caching system is also behaving differently on these huge amounts of RAM. So it's very hard to trace whether the consumption goes actually into the yarn containers themselves or into MapReduce tasks. So that may be the difference. Did you try any flavors larger than the 32 gigabyte all the way up to like one to one ratio with the host? Well, we didn't try to launch one VM per host, but when trying to launch larger VMs, we saw that this difference between the guest VM, RAM size, and the actual RAM that is used by the process in the host system, it actually grows. So the bigger the flavor is, the more RAM is somewhere wasted between the hardware visor and the host operating system. So I guess we will not be able just to spawn one VM the size of the host at some point. Another question. When you spawn multiple VMs on your physical host, did you divvy up the block devices? How exactly were the block devices scheduled to the multiple VMs running on that host? OK, so there is an instance locality filter, which is part of the Cinder backend. And while spawning the instance, the VM appears first. And then when you create a volume, you can just tell them run this volume on the same host as the instance. So the Cinder volume will create the volume, which actually is just the mapping to the real block device, like def sda or def sdb. And then while attaching it, you just specify the Cinder. You just point then over to the Cinder device, and it will attach it to the Iskazi bus. So it will attach it to VARTO bus. It will not use any Iskazi or anything if Cinder doesn't. So you directly hooked up a certain number of, so how many block devices per VM was that? We had 12 per VM. OK, thank you. The three copies of, so how did you do the third VM on a separate host? How did you make sure that that was consistently applied across your cluster? To handle that, you can specify that now you need to use Nova filters. And it is called the, well, there are actually two approaches to that. First one, you can say run on a different host from the other VM. So if you spawn them sequentially, you can just say run the first VM anywhere you want, then the second VM on another place than rather than the first one. And the third one on anything else rather than first and second. But that's a very slow approach. And the faster approach is to use the resource groups with the affinity filter that will allow you just to give you a number of nodes you can allow to have on a single host. And then it will distribute it with the Nova scheduler. OK, so if there is no more questions, I think we can close this talk. Thank you.


Hi, everyone. Happy Sunday. I'm Joe for jasphyscasebreaks.com, coming at you with a full case of 2021 Bowman Chrome Baseball. This is Hobby Edition. Pick your team number 13. Big thanks to everybody here for getting in on the action. Appreciate it. Thanks for spending a bit of your Sunday with us. So if you have a little rooftop next to your name, that means you won that spot in that filler that we did. And I actually don't know who got official last spot in Mojo, which is kind of important to keep track of because, as we like to say, last spot in Mojo, 70% of the time it hits 100% of the time. That would be Anthony and the Mets. So we'll usually put a little asterisk next to it. There you go. Good luck, Anthony. Good luck, everybody. Thanks for getting in. And remember, we've got a 10 case of this on the site. So if you want to be a part of that, we're just down to a handful of fillers that we got to knock out. And there's a nice, there's a pretty nice break credit promo attached to that as well. So if you want to check that out on jasphyscasebreaks.com, go take a look. You can see the box is on the top camera right there. There's four, there's eight, and there's 12. So settle in, ladies and gentlemen. This break is a little bit on the longer side, but kick back and relax, watch me pull some nice hits, I hope. And we'll chat a little, chat a little Sunday night football together as well. All right. Sean D thinks we're up to at least 70 times in that time. It hits 100% of the time. Yeah, it's been hitting pretty well. Like a month or so ago, I think we were only at 60%, but it slowly crept up. So we're looking at two autographs of box here. And this is Bowman. So this is an all-card chip. This is Bowman. So this is prospect hunting. So we got a plan for a lot of potential future value here. I think this is a pretty popular product for people to get graded and they just hang on to it and see how these prospects emerge. Most of the time, I suppose you could flip it pretty quickly, but Bowman tends to be more of a longer term sort of investment rather than a short term thing. And away we go. Keeper Ruiz, Austin Wells, Shimmer. And our first autograph is Gregory Santos. That's going to be for Brad and the San Francisco Baseball Giants. Here we go. Number 21 Giants Prospect. And we've got A. Jaren Duran Duran. 19 out of 199 for Boston. That will go to Mark. And our second autograph is Christian Santana. 56 out of 499. I, Capola with Detroit. Number six prospect in his international draft class. Oh, Refractor as well. 56 out of 499. And we've got a Tyler Sodersham Refractor. 445 out of 499. Oakland. That'll be for Ben and the A's. Alright, next box. And I'll do an autograph recap at the end of the break as well. So if you're watching the replay of this, you can drag a little slider and fast forward it towards the end until you see me start to shuffle through these autographs. Auto recap, and I guess we find any lower numbered stuff as well. Let's see what we have going on baseball-wise. I think my Dodgers shut out the Diamondbacks 3, nothing. Seager, couple home runs. Urius with the win. Getting their 100th win. But I don't think it matters in the standings because, yeah, the Giants took care of business. 6-2 in Colorado. Brandon Crawford Homer to cap a 4-run 9th. Rocky's really just blowing it. What else? Braves to face Fills after a wild 9th. Beating Padres, 4-3. Will Smith. Reliever, Will Smith struck out the side. Around 3 walks in the 9th thing to finish off, to finish the Atlanta comeback. Otani not enough. Mariners sent Angels to losing. Season Shoei wasn't enough to keep the Los Angeles Angels from their 6th straight loss. What did he do? Oh, he had pitched 7 innings. 1-1 run, 5 hits. But behind Marco Gonzalez, Mariners won 5-1. How did he do with the bat? I kind of need him to do well with the bat for my fantasy team. He went 1 for 3. No home run. Kurt Stuckey had a home run though.  Tyler Shoei was a Sherlock guy. He went to school with his dad, Steve, and he was a giant. Oh, I didn't know that. He's an A, right? An Oakland A? Yeah, Tyler Shoei. Yeah, Sherlock, California. Number 92 overall prospect. Cerebral hitter with masterful barrel control, apparently. Learned the nuances of catching from his father, Steve, who was a former pro player. Planned to attend UCLA. And his older brother, Tate, plays at UC San Diego. That's where I went to college. Alright, we'll go through some more scores in the next box. We've got plenty of time. Let's see what we have here. And again, all cards shipped. There's Jeremy de la Rosa, Shimmer. I think these are like 1 per box. And there's Reginald Preciado. Reggie going to the Friars. Michael Langer with Padres. There you go, Michael. Number 21 Padres prospect. We've got a Wander Franco summer camp atomic refractor. 61 out of 150. That looks sharp. That goes to Mark and the Reds. Rays, that is. Different R team. And Milcar Perez, 259 out of 299. Speckle, parallel. An on-card Bowman first autograph for Capola and the Seattle Mariners. Number 31 Mariners prospect according to fan graphs. We've got Jefferson Cuero, 112 out of 499 refractor. That's for Mark and the Brewers. And next box. Soldiers from Plays in your hometown for the Stockton Ports. Nice. Is he supposed to be good? Is he going to be good? That's the A single A team. Speaking of the As, A's beat the Astros 4-3 on a walk-off hit in the 9th. Mark Kana, RBI single with 1 out in the bottom of the 9th. Cardinals, man. Cardinals 16 wins in a row. That is crazy. They beat the Cubbies 4-2 with a couple runs in the top of the 9th to beat the Cubs. Danny Janssen in the go-ahead 3-run homer. George Springer also went deep. Blue Jays beat the Twins 5-2. Brewers beat the Metz 8-4 and they officially clinched the NL Central. Reds route the Nationals 9-2 to keep their slim playoff posts alive. Corner ESPN. Tyler Stephenson and Nick Casianos hit the consecutive homeruns. Shane Baza's 5-2-3 scoreless innings help the Rays sweep the Marlins 3-2. We'll go through some more scores after this box. And then we'll take a look at the standings. Do you see where everything stands in the standings? Speaking of the Brewers, there's Carlos Rodriguez. Mark Reginski with that. There you go, Mark. Number 14, Brewers prospect. And Jeremy de la Rosa, Green Shimmer, 56 out of 99. Anthony with the Nationals won that spot in our filler. And ooh, nice. Astros, Pedro Leone, blue parallel. On-card autograph, 28 out of 150. That's for big boys 007 who won the Astros in the filler and this guy, Pedro Leone, is rated number one prospect in his international class by Baseball America. So a lot of upside here. There's Hugh Darvish, 478 out of 499. Refractor for the Friars, Michael. We've got Ryan Jeffers, Twins, Purple Chrome, 155 out of 250.  Nice Pedro Leone, blue. And there's Milcar Perez, this time of refractor, 112 out of 499 for Coppola and the Ems. Yeah, Dodgers Cardinals wild card game should be pretty crazy. And there's a chance there could be a Yankees Red Sox wild card game as well. There's Hunter Green, Reds, and Green Parallel. I like that. That goes to Brian, who won the Reds in the filler. Alright, next box. We've got Green Bay up 10-0 on the Niners right now at the start of the second quarter. Niners really haven't had the ball all that often. Just very short drives for them. Yeah, that's about a $400 card, right? Yeah, people were wondering why the Astros were so pricey, but it's prospects like that. Could be even more if it grades out nicely and if he turns out to be a star. White Sox beat the Indians 5-2, Geolito 6 scoreless innings. Eloy Jimenez had a 2-round home run. Rangers beat the Orioles 7-4.  That ends their Phillies' 5-game winning streak. Royals edged out the Tigers in Detroit 2-1. Chris Bubic pitched 7 shutout innings. I'm sure a lot of people who have ended up with the Royals have gotten his hits. He's pretty solid. At the end of the fifth, the Yankees are leading the Red Sox in Boston 2-1. Grizzlebees, what's going on, Kapolev? How are you? We've got a pink shimmer. Patrick Bailey or Fuchsia or Magenta, whatever you want to call it, to 1-99. That's Brad and the Giants, my rivals. And a redemption has usually, I feel like that redemption has usually been that one twins player. There's Luis Ares, refractor to 4-99. For the twins, who has got the twins in this? Tim Leahy with the twins. Got C.J. Abrams, Speckle. I really like how the Speckle looks to 2-99. 2-52 out of 2-99 for the Friars, Michael. And Pedro Pineda for Ben and the A's. You're rated number 11 international prospect. Steve, what's going on? There's Cool Whit Merrifield 2-99. For the Royals, that'll be for Mark. And behind Braylon Marquez is a Bowman Chrome prospect, autograph, refractor parallel. Ooh, different. C. Cleveland? Yeah. Gabriel Rodriguez. I don't think I've seen his name come across my desk. Green Bay just picked off the Niners. That's why they've just been having short drives. Congrats, Cleveland. Mark, Cleveland! This is for you! Yeah, that White Sox team is going to be pretty scary, I think. Yeah, I was just about to look at the standings, Chad. If the Yankees lose tonight, Blue Jays take 2-3 from the Yankees. Next series, Mariner sweep the A's. Three-way tie with 3-to-go in the AL wildcard. Who takes it? I mean, who are those teams playing in the last three games? I guess at that point that matters. It's going to be a pretty wild card, pretty wild finish to this season. But see, the thing is, if the Blue Jays are playing the Yankees, the Blue Jays are one-and-a-half back of the Yankees. But I guess the Mariners would have to sweep, right? Pulling the Yankees down, moving the Blue Jays and Mariners up there. And the last three games, Yankees played the Rays, M's played the Angels. Toronto, no idea, but I mean, it's still going to be pretty close. What does everyone think? Who ends up getting that second wildcard spot? I guess he maybe even... There's a chance that both the Red Sox and the Yankees who are currently occupied the top two spots, they may slip out. It could be Blue Jays' Mariners. A's even have an outside chance looking in. It's going to be a wild finish for the wildcard. It's going to be crazy that a team with maybe winds in the low 90s are going to be in the wildcard in the AL, but the 100 plus wind dodgers are going to be a wildcard team. I would have not have predicted that. There's Trent DeVoe, number 16 Angels prospect, going to Eric and the Halos. We've got Juan Soto to 150, Blue for Anthony in the Nats. A's a Lacey, Shimmer. And we've got a Luis Miesis, 49 out of 250, purple chrome autograph for the South Siders. Mark with Chicago. Congrats. There's Nate Pearson for the Bluebirds to 299 for Tim and Toronto. Next box. Chad's an accountant. He says the math works out. Take my scenario and have the Red Sox get swept in the next series. And it's a four-way tie with three to go for two spots. So at that point, have you started looking at tiebreakers, Chad? I wonder what the first tiebreaker is. Maybe like head to head, maybe? I don't know if they've played this. They've played each other that often. What's the tiebreaker? Yeah, as for the dodgers, they've got a lock on that wildcard spot. They've won 100 games. It's going to be crazy. And then they're going to face, they're probably going to face, yeah, the Cardinals are, unless the Cardinals won 16 in a row, unless they lose all their games in a row Cincinnati wins all their games in a row, which would be crazy. It looks like the Cardinals have the lock on the second wildcard spot. So unless the Dodgers who have slim chance of winning the division, they get lucky, it might come down to the last game. But as it stands now, Dodgers, Cardinals in that wildcard, which will be pretty nuts. We're not, Dave, we're not doing grading services anymore. I think PSA still only has like the two fastest, their two most expensive services still remaining. They haven't opened up the other services yet, anyhow. All right, next box. There's Emerson Hancock, who could be another, along with like Logan Gilbert could be a potential front of the rotation guy for the Mariners in the future. The future might be now. The Mariners look like they're a little ahead of schedule. And there's Reginald Presadio, or Presciato, that is. 73 out of 99, another one for Michael and the Friars. Green parallel this time. That Ace of Lacy for the Royals. 179 out of 250. That's fair enough Chad. Chad's like, let me worry about tie breakers if that's actually going to happen. Let's try to get that wildcard spot first. We got Drew Romo, 74 out of 150. Blue Crone, parallel for the Rocks. That's going to go to Michael. And ooh, nice. Our second autograph is Wilman Diaz. Bowman first for my Dodgers, Tim, with the Dodgers. He's one of their bigger name prospects, coming up the number seven international prospect in his class. So he'll be working his way up through the rich Dodgers farm system. And there's our case hit, Bowman Ascensions. Jared Kalanick, who's been hitting the ball really well. This is a one per case situation here. Capola with the M's. Yeah, we are seeing a lot of nice color in this case. I would love to see a Super. That would be awesome. Doesn't look like the pack is going to take advantage of that interception.  Come on, you've got to focus buddy. All right. Next box. Good luck. Another two autographs. All card ship here in figure team 13. There's Casey Mies. Oh, I think that's a... People reminded me last time this was like a photo variation. So it has that refractor look, but it's not numbered. Just a different variation here. I think we got that last time. We got a variation like this. Icapola with the Tigers. And Erol Vera is our first autograph in this box. Eric with the Halos. Number eight Angels prospect. According to Baseball America. Zach Vien, refractor. One of the Rockies up and coming prospects. They hope. That goes to Michael and the Rocks. Cade Cavalli. Shimmer to 199. Magenta Shimmer. There should be one more autograph in here somewhere. Where are you? There he is. Jordan Diaz. For Ben and the A's. Number 19 A's prospect. And Reed Detmerz. Speckle parallel for the Halos. That's the 299. And the Cade Cavalli goes to Anthony. Onwards. Next box. All right. Onwards. I think the end of the sixth inning. Yankee still up 2-1 on the Red Sox. A's is shortstop Andrew's sideline with a fractured left fibula. How did that happen? Next box. Good luck. Ladies and gentlemen, we have a 10 case break of 2021 Bowman Chrome Baseball Hobby Edition. 10 cases. You heard that right. We've got to knock out a couple fillers. A handful of fillers to give away the remaining spots. So if you want to go to jaskiescasebreaks.com let's chip away at those fillers and give away some spots in that 10 case. It's going to be exciting. 137 out of 250 purple shimmer. Austin Wells for the Yankees. That's going to be for Nick. And we've got Carlos's brother here. JC Correa.  Jose Garcia. That's a fractured 499. That's for the Reds. That's for Brian. Won the Reds in the filler. We've got Joey Gallo. Rangers Gold. 36 out of 50. That's for Logan Smith and the Rangers. And Christopher Morrell. Cubs. Greg with the Cubbies. Number 11, Cubs Prospect. And there's Luis Medina to 75. This is actually supposed to be the yellow parallel, I think, but it looks a little more orangey, but obviously we'll be able to tell by the numbers. Oranges are out of 25. Next box, good luck. Niners driving a little bit here. All right, next box here in full case picker team number 13. Thanks everyone for picking their teams. I appreciate it. And there's Ethan Hearn. Another Cub for Greg. Number nine, Cubs Prospect. It's Bowman first. It's Glaber Day. Purple Chrome to 250. For the Yankees, Nick. Got a Grayson Rodriguez shimmer. For the O's, that'll be for Donald. And it looks like there's a redemption here. There's a Keele Badou. Refractor, 235 out of 499. Capola with Detroit. Behind Francisco, Lindor is going to be a Bowman Chrome Prospect autograph. No parallel of S. San Diego, St. Louis. San Francisco. ST, St. Louis. Cardinals, Malcolm Nunez. Going to Eric J. And the hot, hot Redbirds. Firebird. They are just rolling right now. Three boxes to go. We're almost there. All right. Three boxes to go. One all-card ship. And don't forget about the 10Ks Bowman Chrome Break. A lot of good prospect in there. Hunting for the treasures. Just like the 49ers of old. Not the San Francisco football 49ers, but the good miners in 1849. That's what we're doing. Prospecting. Cardinals activate Dakota Hudson, Jack Flaherty from the IL, Boyd, baseball news here, to undergo flexor tendon surgery. Indians finally activate Shane Beiber from injured lists. Maybe we'll get a start in before the season is out. Dimebacks extended, Tori Louvello. A's reinstated Chris Bassett from the IL. Orioles retain manager Brandon Hyde as well. So a couple of managers who lost 100 games, I guess still part of the process. We got Johnny Pyron, 241 out of 499. Ray's refractor for Mark. And there's Armando Gruz, 244 out of 299. And that's Speckle Autograph for Anthony. Won that spot in the filler. It gets an autograph. Rated number five. International prospect. There's Grayson Rodriguez, 193 to 250. For the O's, Donald. There's Jared Cowley, Michael Krohm Schimmer to 250. For the White Sox. Mark with the South Siders. And there's Michael Goldberg. Ben with the Oakland A's, another A's auto. Third round pick. And there's Shane Beiber. Speaking of Shane Beiber, there he is. To 299 for the tribe. That's going to go to Mark. All right, two boxes to go. Reds extend their manager, David Bell through 2023. That's really it. Not a lot of craziness. Just waiting to see where those wildcard teams end up. I guess the NL wildcard is pretty much set unless the Dodgers are able to kind of pip the NL West from the Giants. It's going to be pretty tough with every game that goes by. But it's like Dodgers Cardinals in that NL wildcard. And the AL wildcard is wild. It's all up in the air. Who knows what's going to happen. I feel like San Francisco should have gone for it on a fourth in the water. Sunday night football on the background. Packers up 10-0. 448 left in the first half. Two boxes to go. There's Jason Dominguez. To 199. 31 out of 199. Yankees, Nick. And is that an orange auto? It is. It's Gilberto Celestino. 22 out of 25 orange auto for the Twins. Tim with Minnesota. Nice. The orange parallels look really sharp. Number 10 prospect in the Twins organization. Shane McClanahan, Purple Chrome to 250. Shane going to Mark and the Rays. There's Mycel Urbina. 4 out of 25 orange shimmer. Tim with the Twins. Number 13 at Twins prospect. And Tanner Murray is your Bowman first autograph for the Rays. Again, that's Mark R with the Rays. Grayson Rodriguez to 75. 43 out of 75. And the final box, Rex saying Cubs are about talking about extending Ross, manager. He was actually surprised. Well, yeah, I mean, they took like, you know, so many players away from him. It'd be unfair to be like, try to win without Chris Bryan, Anthony Rizzo and Javier Baez. And no pitching and no starting pitching. I think it would be a little unfair to ask him to succeed under those circumstances. But as long as he's the right guy and connecting with players that could, I mean, that's why, you know, I think the Orioles manager was extended. That's why the Diamondbacks manager extended even though they lost a hundred games. There's something to be said about consistency, at least when you're kind of rebuilding the Niners. Rocks, good luck. Two more autographs. Let's see who they're going to be. First one is going to be Ezekiel Tovar Rockies. Michael with the Rocks. Number 27 prospect in the Colorado system.
