Hi, I'm Helen, Head of SEO at Car and Classic and today we're going to look at how SEOs and developers can work better together. Now I'd spend some time explaining to you why developers and SEOs need to work better together, but it's kind of obvious really. Developers have the opportunity to make our lives so much better by quickly implementing that fix to load speed or making our lives so much worse by accidentally rolling out some code that completely de-indexes the website. But actually we can really help developers as well because we have the opportunity to give them data into usability and accessibility. It's actually quite important that we work well together. Now you're often here, people say that if you want to get on well with your developers you need to bribe them with donuts. Which is a little bit insulting and a lot expensive because who has that kind of donut money just hanging around. But actually we need to work out how we can form a really good working relationship with developers that doesn't rely solely on baked goods. Now how do we do that? Well, first off we need to start by understanding their processes because essentially if we're asking them to do things for us we need to make sure that we are communicating in a way that fits into their processes. So learn how to brief in your requirements in a way that helps them to prioritise and plan your work. So what is it that they do at the moment? Do they have a ticketing system that they use that they put all of their requirements in and allows it to be monitored as it moves through the process? Or do they have some other way that they track the work that they're doing? But make sure that you are putting in your requirements and your requests in the format that works for them. There's no point just shooting over an email to them asking them to fix something if it doesn't actually make it into their work. So what else do you need to do? You need to look at where you have briefed things in the past and it's not really worked out well. So perhaps mistakes were made, there was a misunderstanding, a problem with communication. Have a look through some of the tickets that you've submitted in the past and look to see whether there are reasons why they got rejected or misunderstood. What do you need to do to clarify things when you're briefing in work for your developers? Perhaps you can look at other teams and what they do when they are briefing in work for their developers. Maybe you can understand how they are stretching their tickets or whether there's particular terminology they use to help communicate things to the devs better. But learn from where other people are doing it better as well as where you've not done it so well in the past. And hopefully you'll come up with a really good way of helping your developers understand what work you want them to do. Look at things like their work cadence. So do they commit to doing work two weeks in advance? Do they commit to a whole month worth of work before they get going? Or do they have some slightly confusing mix of agile and waterfall that essentially means no one knows what work they're doing but it has to be done right now. Whatever way your developers have their work planned in for them, make sure that you are aware of it because that cadence is going to be really important. If you want something done and you need it done soon then you're probably going to have to see if you can get it prioritised in order for it to be in this sprint or the next sprint for example. And you want to know what kind of timeframes that they're working to. How much time is your ticket going to take? So if you've asked them to do something really complicated on the website it's going to take a lot more time, testing, resources for that to actually be rolled out. So make sure that you've got that planned in for your own schedule of work. And finally, what do you do if everything explodes on the website and you need to get it fixed right now? So say the entire website has been de-indexed somehow. Are you supposed to just put a ticket in and wait for two weeks for the next sprint for it to get fixed? That doesn't sound like a good idea. So how do you escalate when there are some real serious critical issues that you've identified? Do you have to put a ticket in to a different workstream? Do you have to talk to someone in particular about it? Do you just have to run around the office screaming a little bit until someone pays attention to you? What is the way that you get your tickets escalated at your company or at your client's company? Next, look at some training. What are the common things that your developers run into when they are being asked by the SEOs to implement work? So are there problems with pagination often that you're asking them to fix? Or are they implementing links in a way that isn't particularly SEO-friendly? Can you just train them in this kind of stuff in advance so that they are already equipped to know how to do things from an SEO perspective, rather than waiting for you to say, you did that wrong? Maybe you can put together a repository of these documents. So actually, why don't you write this kind of stuff down? So whenever you tell someone how to implement pagination in a SEO-friendly way, write it down, give the context of what it is that you asked them to do and how that was fixed, so that they can refer back to it, other members of the team can refer back to it, and actually all the SEOs are on board and making sure that they are recommending the same ways of working in the future. If you want to train your developers, they're busy, they're busy people. They might not have an hour or two hours for you to go through the intricacies of how websites are crawled by search engines. Is there an alternative way that you can train them? Look at things like how do they train each other, actually? Do they send over videos? Do they write it all down? Do they have real quick 15 minutes distilling of information? How do they train each other? How do they upskill themselves and see if you can conduct your training in a similar way? Really important to making sure that you're working well with your developers is getting some kind of SEO QA process in place. So this means things like being tagged in the tickets that are being taken through the development process. So it might be that developers aren't aware of things that could be affecting SEO, and therefore, if they can just tag you on the tickets, you can go in and check to see whether there's any SEO impact or any input that you need to have. You can also assign a point person. So perhaps there's a project manager or there's an engineering lead within the development team that you can always go to and make sure that you have an SEO that they can always come to. That way you've got a point person, a point of contact between both teams. So whenever there is any kind of confusion or discussion around tickets or priorities, they're getting one message from one person and you're not confusing the situation with lots of voices all chipping in. And make sure whatever happens you have the authority to stop something being rolled out. Make sure that you've spoken to the right stakeholders so that you have that authority to say no to something being implemented. Because it's all very well being tagged in a ticket or being told of future developments, but actually if you're not allowed to say hold on, we need to change how we're implementing this, then it's kind of useless and a waste of your time. And ultimately, you don't want something to get rolled out that is going to have a really negative impact on your organic visibility, just for it to have to get fixed or rolled back at a later date. You want to be able to say no before it's rolled out in the first place. And last up, how do you get buy-in from your development team? Well, I once gave a survey to a whole bunch of developers asking them what they needed from the SEO team to work better with them. And of the two developers that actually responded to my survey, they both said they wanted more context around the tickets that we were putting in. They want to know why we're asking for stuff, not just what it is we're asking for. So if you're asking for your developers to implement Hreflang tags on the website, make sure that you are telling them why. What is it that you're trying to end up with? What do you want from the Hreflang tags so that they understand the context and they can perhaps suggest better ways of doing things or they can make sure that wherever they are implementing SEO changes, it's not negatively affecting the website in other ways. Our job as SEOs is to safeguard organic traffic. Their job as website developers is to safeguard the entire website. So they probably want to know why we're making changes so that they can check it's not going to have any adverse effects. Make sure you understand their ways of working. So if they like to communicate through emails or instant messaging services or perhaps they like to only communicate about tickets within the ticketing system itself so they've got a nice audit trail that anyone can refer back to you, try and make sure that you're working in a similar way. So that your recommendations and your advice and your questions don't get missed. If they're only checking the tickets to see what people are commenting on or asking and you're sending the emails through then chances are that the right people aren't going to see the things that you're commenting on. Try and get yourself an SEO champion. And this is kind of good advice for any of the teams that you're working with but make sure that you have a person within the development team or your client's agency that really wants to know more about SEO, that really gets SEO and wants to improve their understanding of it. Because if you have someone who's really keen to learn more, perhaps they did SEO a bit in a previous job or they just have an interest in it, then you've got a person who's probably going to be on your side when you're asking for things like changes in ways of working or for a whole new process to be implemented. If you have a champion, someone in the development team that wants to learn more from you that you can perhaps mentor a bit in SEO, then you're going to have someone who's really keen to help you. Look at the tools and data that you have access to as SEOs that your development team doesn't and see whether there's data that they'd actually find quite valuable. Yes, they can interrogate a database but they don't necessarily have the tools to crawl a website in the same way that we do, for example. And it might be that they want to find information and understand how a search engine is perceiving something. So you can either train them in using things like Google Search Console or you can give them access to the data instead. But make sure that you are communicating with them the data that they will find useful because it's a great way of getting by in. Show them the results of their work. So if they have done something that's greatly improved core web vitals, show them. They're going to want to see all the green ticks just like we do. So maybe you can communicate and give updates regularly to the development team after they've completed a ticket of what impact it had. Maybe it improved rankings, maybe it helped with usability. What is it that their work did that had a very positive effect on SEO? And you can even go as far as giving them scores and feedback on it because they want to learn, they want to get better at their jobs and if SEO is a part of that then you kind of need to give them feedback so they know where to improve. So thank you so much for listening. I'm going to go and find myself a doughnut. Is there a doughnut shop? Have you got a doughnut shop around here?


All right, hey, I talk about thinking big. I think about, I talk about expansion all the time. We just added a couple thousand square feet. This building is like nine, 10,000 square feet. There's only two small sections of this entire building that we don't have. And we just added on about 2,000, I believe. So I'm gonna kind of walk you through and show you, we just got 11 desks in. Dallas and Derek are putting these things together. And so in here, we're gonna be able to have literally about a dozen different team members all focused on content and selling and helping and supporting everything locally to nationally. We've also got additional conference table, couple offices, you guys know I love my whiteboards. We're gonna have whiteboards everywhere. Probably throw a TV up here. We're adding on the back part of the space, I believe here in a few months. And so I mean, that's the thing, right? We talk about thinking big and expansion. We're always thinking bigger, spending more money. I preach it, I mean, it's helped me. It sounds crazy, but in Dave Ramsey would disagree, but I say, hey, spend more money, invest in your business, that's the biggest thing. When I set a target, when I spend money, when I get creative and I take more action because of all the thinking big and spending money, it forces me to do more. So in your business in 2019, I wanna challenge you to do more. Get some space, add on space. We already have, no one ever really needs more space, but shoot, man, why not? We've already got like, well, we got dealing 4,500 square feet, 5,000 square feet already. We're adding on a couple thousand more and no one really ever needs more space. But if you can do more, have more potential, make more money, grind it out, dude, why not, right? So when you think about your year and you as an individual, what can you do to level up? And keep moving forward in 2019.


I will be live and speaking in just a moment. Logging into one more thing. Starting broadcast. Wow, this is a momentous. Hi, it's Debbie Daschinger. This is Dare to Dream. No, it's seriously momentous. Welcome to the show. These cards may play a part in today's live show. And this is amazing because I'm being pushed to do something that I have been resisting. And you know what happens when you resist, right? In your face. It does not go away. No different than anybody else. And so I'm laughing at the irony of where I am right now. This is the second week in a row. Last week I was supposed to have a guest on the show and she had the most unbelievable technical bizarre issues. Right? We worked together. It was our show was an hour late. And I remember what was happening. I was thinking, this is so strange. What am I going to do? I don't have a guest. And then of course the thought came up, you know, girlfriend, it's your show. This is your platform for 16 years. You could do your own show. And then it's like, I don't think so. I'm not comfortable. And but the universe is telling me and showing me exactly where I need to be headed, which means that was a yes. Do your own show. And so this week I'm supposed to have this huge name. And she just didn't show, literally didn't show, which is never happens. And I what's apt her. And she wrote back something, you know, definitely devastating happen in our family. I don't understand, but why somebody doesn't reach out, let you know beyond me. And like that's the human 3D thing, right?  But in the higher realm of all of this, you and I both know the universe yet again, pushing me, right? Pushing me. And so here I am. I debated and debated. I'm not as vulnerable as you could be right now. And comfortably so to be out here by myself. And I'm sure you're thinking, what? You're interviewed all the time and you're on stage and doesn't matter. And so it just is what it is. And if you resonate right on, let me know because we end up doing things. We're not comfortable doing them. We end up going, that was not so bad. It was actually kind of fun. So I'm doing it. This is my year of saying yes, typing in and saying yes. I got invited to speak December 1st through 3rd, the end of this year in Mexico City at the UFology conference. And I was sort of blown away. First of all, I've not spoken on stage since, like actually right when COVID was starting, I was on stage. And just the week before everything shut down. But I've not spoken on stage since then. And when I was speaking on stage, it was about writing books because I'm a book writing coach. It was about being interviewed on podcasts and getting great results because that's what I do for people out in the world outside of this. And I was so interested in UFology. Y'all know that's my jam. So why are they inviting me? Because so this has been my journey. I'm just going to tell you this amazing journey. And all of that, I'll do the journey, but I also want to get to the punchline and say, I said, yes, how did you find me? We found you through the Conscious Life Expo. Oh, how beautiful. And so they want me to be one of their main speakers. I said, yes, this is something I've never spoken about, but I'm going to own where the universe is pointing me. And it was the same last year when I wanted, I've been wanting to follow shamanism for so long. In 2019, I did a week in Costa Rica at the amazing Rhythmia, four back-to-back nights of ayahuasca and yahe, et cetera. And starting the first night, many, many, many things happened after I drank plant medicine, but the first night it was shocked when the divine came and she said to me, you're a healer, a priestess, a shaman. And I was like, mm, it must be one of those other 80 people over there. But I was really surprised because I know myself to be many things and I own them and I claim them and I'm proud of them. But those were not words I would have used to describe moi. However, I would have used it to describe many of my friends for shawa and I certainly would use it to describe the amazing people come on my show. And I was really uncomfortable with it and I didn't understand it and I started negotiating. And then I said, well, just don't make me see dead people. And they agreed. And the next night they came back, the divine, when I drank again and they said the same thing and they were so beautiful and gentle with me, so clever.  I just love, you know, they know all our personalities and how to work with us. And so what they did for me is they showed me what it would look like to see dead people. And I was like shocked because it wasn't bad. In fact, it was rather fascinating. And I went, oh, okay, this isn't like some scary slasher movie. Got it. And so I was amenable.  I believe the fourth night was Yahe. Yeah, it was Yahe because you never forget Yahe. It's a purgative from every end. You don't forget Yahe. And so that night they said, we want you to go up to the shaman and ask for a shaman's blessing. And for 20 minutes I was very angry. And I said, no, you're nuts. These are people who've been drinking in jungles and been lineage passed down. And if it's not lineage passed down, boy, they have done the work. You know, that's very uncomfortable. But the divine wouldn't let up. And so I finally acquiesced and I went up to, I went up to a shaman and I said, this is what's going on. And this is what they've asked me to ask of you or they had magnificent shamans there. And he was so lovely. I was just so surprised how everybody else was nonplussed except for me. And so he said yes. And I did get a special shaman's blessing. You would think it would have been over then. Oh, no. Because then the divine came back and one of the women, Sarah, a sham, just beautiful, they said, now you must ask Sarah for a blessing so that you understand your path. It's so amazing me sharing this right now. I feel really vulnerable and a little bit emotional remembering all this because now I'm seeing where I am right now. I know like in four years I may share and see an arc of a different story because I'll be in a different place and get more of the picture. So they wanted me to say, not just ask Sarah for the blessing in order so I could see my path of shamanism and get a blessing on that path, but they wanted me to call her sister and I'm like, oh, you're pushing me. You're pushing me. I don't like it. I don't know if anyone else out there is like me. You don't like to be told what to do. Totally. I like to figure stuff out on my own. Oh, leave me be. So they would not leave me be. And so I went up to Sarah and I said, sister, the divine has asked me to ask you for a special blessing so that I will know my way and path on the shaman path. And she said, yes, so humbling, like so humbling. And she put her hand on my head and she spoke Spanish. She also spoke English, but she spoke Spanish over me. I do not speak fluent Spanish, but I understand enough Spanish to understand many of the beautiful words that were being spoken over me. When I came back from to the States, I was like, WTF. What was that all about? And I have some very, very, very gifted friends and they said, why don't we do some past life regressions for you? And so you all know I'm a believer. I'm about a spiritual and woo is the woo as the new woo goes. But I've also been an eye roller about past life regressions. Like somebody tries to do a past life regression and then says, look down at your feet. I roll. That's me. Not you. That's me. Doesn't work for me. And then I get in my head and it's the worst. So I've never liked those and I, but I was just so curious. I was like, all right, take me away. Calgon. And so I, I did several of them and I had incredible mind blowing experiences. I will say the person who led me through it because I like to give credit. I like Dr. Michael Gross. If any of you know him, he's amazing. So he, two of the ones he did with me and he doesn't do the whole look at your feet thing. So it was really very positive. And anyway, the way he held this space and the way he got me there. So that feels very private to me. So I'm going to keep that to myself, but I will tell you that I absolutely saw one of myself as a male. So long ago, I wouldn't even know the timeline of when that was, but a beautiful life of myself as a shaman. And I saw another lifetime in my in Inca times where I was a priestess and that was really profound and the conversations I had with her and the things I learned from, she couldn't have been more different, looked more different, acted more different. And it was actually going to be a clue on my, my path. So anyway, I guess I'll tell you, I won't keep my, I won't keep my cards so close to the vest, but I will tell you that when I asked this particular being who is me in another or concurrent lifetime about herself, I mean, I was just so amazed at her demeanor. I can't tell you a different we are because she was so non-emotional, frankly, and very tall. She must have been seven, nine, 11 feet tall. I don't know. But a hundred percent manifest her, manifest, manifest. And I was really amazed at her, how she was. And at one point in our dialoguing, am I asking her all sorts of questions? I made an assumption and I said to her, oh, well, you must be, you must be very closely connected to God or source or goddess because you are clearly a priestess of these people. But there's something very creator about you.  Now, back then, I did not believe in extraterrestrials or UFOs and I was also an eye-roller. And that's a true story. I was a completely different person. I didn't get it. There were certain things I loved like Whitley Strieber's books. There were certain things I loved. But mostly it was about movies. I don't know, I didn't get it. I just wasn't in my wheelhouse at all. Everything else was, channeling, all sorts of metaphysics and healing and so forth and energy, yes, yes, yes. But no, not at all. UFOs, extraterrestrials, UAPs, etc. What a different human I am today. Back then she raised her finger and did this and I looked at her and she said, I'm not from here, but I live here. So that was so hugely surprising for me and shocking for me. But beautiful also because I just ingested that information. It was fact over this lovely amazing me being that I met. Okay, so that said, then COVID hit. I was actually going to go after shamanism and I found an amazing course and you had to leave and live in this place. It was a residency course for a month in another country and it was a huge deal. It was like a really big deal because you have to leave your work, your dog, your apartment, everything. And everybody knows you're not going to just go to another country for a month for residency. You got to travel in the country at least three weeks. You've gone two months. This is a lot. But you know, Providence took over. I didn't feel in my gut. It wasn't right for me. And thank God, thank God I didn't do it because as it turns out COVID hit. I would have been stuck in another country, right? So the divine was at play here. Okay, that said during COVID I started doing music for ceremonies, very shamanistic music, very medicine, very uplifting. I revisited something I hadn't done for 15 years. I used to be a professional singer. I let it go to do radio and book coaching and all of that. And here I was performing again. Parties, festivals, online things, ceremonies, plant ceremonies, all of it. And just going, oh well maybe this was my path as a shaman. And I was very happy and content there. And I still am by the way. I still love, love, love doing that. And that was beautiful for a few years in the sense that it sustained me with the knowledge this may, no maybe this is my path. This is maybe what I give back to the world. And then last year I heard the same man that I heard in 2019 speak again only this time he had an online course for six months. And in my gut I said if not now when, I cannot anymore. I have to do this. So I've been in this program the shaman program. I've stepped into it. I am learning all these amazing very powerful, very, very powerful very, very powerful shamanistic processes. And that's where I am today. And somehow I feel that UFOs and extraterrestrials and the shaman are weaving and are going to be woven and as the indigenous people call them the star nations. And so I feel very excited about this journey and that's where I am today. And so here I am with you feeling a little less vulnerable but definitely in that space. Yeah, I'm definitely in that space because I am saying out loud after 16 years like this is who I am, you know. And when they wanted me to speak at this this ufology event it's like I realized wow I've only spoken about books I've spoken about I've done the things that I know and the ways that I know how to help spiritual passengers become more visible. And I love that work because we're all here to have a voice at a really important time. So I know y'all are meant to be writing your books and being interviewed on media. I know that. But I also know that right now the universe, the divine etc. They're calling me. Are they calling you too? Are they calling me? And saying well we put y'all we put your soul together to be so much more and it is time for you to go and shine now that light and that information out into the world. And so that's why I'm here doing the show alone today. I had a call somebody might have done a little liquid courage I did not but I did call someone and just say oh my god like I can't find anyone to fill in the show and he just said you know it's time. It is time. So here I am and if it is okay with you this is my shaman rattle this was passed down from my mother to me. I'm going to open the four directions in some sacred space with you and just let us begin let us begin. And I will share what I what I'm going to share and I look forward to your comments and I don't know your comments your encouragement your anything that you resonate with and I also look forward to anything you like to hear more from me in the future because maybe the universe will keep pulling guests out of my show and saying yeah you need to start owning this my love. So I'll stop there and the four directions by the way open the sacred space the only thing I'm going to leave out I do have sacred water I have Florida water which is spirit water and I'm just not going to do it because you have to spit it and I'll be spitting it at my screen and that would be a bummer and my camera so just ignore that one part but typically that is what I do as part of opening shamanic space but as you know in shamanic space it is for all of us energies everywhere and it is now beautiful to the winds of the south great serpent wrap your coils of light around us teach us to shed the past the way you shed your skin to walk softly on the earth teach us the beauty way ah ho to the winds of the west mother jaguar protect our medicine space teach us the way to live impeccably show us the way beyond death ah ho to the winds of the north hummingbird grandmothers and grandfathers ancient ones come and warm your hands by our fires whisper to us in the wind we honor you who have come before us and you who will come after us our children's children ah ho to the winds of the east great eagle condor come to us from the place of the rising sun keep us under your wing show us the mountains we only dare to dream of teach us to fly wing to wing with the great spirit ah ho mother earth pacha mama we've gathered for the healing of all of your children the stone people the plant people the four legged the two legged the creepy crawlers the thinned the furs and the winged ones all our relations ah ho father sun grandmother moon to the star nations great spirit you who are known by a thousand names and you who are the unnameable one thank you for bringing us together and allowing us to sing the song of life ah ho the ceremony and the circle is now open and so let me talk about what do I know outside of my story what I know is there's life outside of this planet there's always been life outside of this planet and that we have a lot of history and a lot of concurrent multi-dimensional lives, planets, galaxies and everything is intertwined what I know is that the visitors are here what I know is that there are hybrids and I will tell you some of my experience so I mentioned earlier I was an eye roller um yeah I really was it's really interesting you know I listened I watched this really cool documentary just this week about Mary Rodwell and she is really famous in Australia as somebody who's an experiencer and also somebody who helps people who have experienced abductions and extraterrestrials etc and she's amazing she's really amazing but you know in being her and speaking out she lost her marriage um and so the documentary was pretty much about her relationship with her son and her coming out so to speak and showing her son all of who she is and so I bring this up because I mean it was really beautiful and I recommend watching it and it's free I think I watched it on YouTube and it was free I guess there's a part of me that it's a little bit of a um you know when she goes into a debate with somebody who's a physicist at one point and it's filmed and the physicist is actually really nasty he's really nasty to her making fun of her constantly and um saying horrible things uh to her you know when she's trying to talk about the people she works with and the abductees and what they've seen and I mean the guy blew like an amazing chance he could have been open and learned but he was so busy mocking and making fun he actually came off as a bully and and then there were certain people in the audience when he would say things who would laugh and he would say things such as well you know if UFOs really exist how come every time we see pictures they're grainy but you know that's actually not the truth is not the truth and uh there's several times including in my life when I've seen things and I can tell you they were now that they're not grainy so it's a little bit of a because when I saw the people laughing I thought gosh once I would never have been mean to someone's face not like that not like that at all but the part of me inside that was like the non-believer would have been that that's what I mean by the eye roller so yeah it's kind of like e but it's amazing you know like to be living in this space and this what I feel is truth I didn't want to say belief but my truth right now so that said going from where I was to stepping into this you know the divine is very beautiful because they were assisting me as a non-believer in changing how I felt so it started out the first experience I had I was with somebody I'm not going to name her but she's very famous as an extraterrestrial channel very definitely very famous here in the United States also in Japan and many many many people in this metaphysical UFO world know about her and so I was I had a series of events that led me to be invited to her very intimate workshop I wasn't supposed to be there the only people she invites are people she has known over the years I think she only lets 25 people come probably out of the hundreds who would like to come and I wasn't supposed to go there but there was a series of wild events that for her and me that was clearly you know somebody was colliding us to this in-person meet and so I ended up going to this experience and I think it was four-day experience I'd never done anything like this before and she channeled the whole time the extraterrestrials that come through her it was amazing full of wisdom and at night we would go out and do contact work and so we went out in the desert and so you got to bear with me please be patient because it takes me a while to become who I'm going to become right and so oh lower hand that's weird I don't know how a hand got raised but that's very cool I would like to intervene right now well you did okay so anyway that was really weird but you got my attention if you need my attention so I'm at this amazing event and we're out on sacred land sacred indigenous land and so you know they're doing their stuff and when it came time break I was kind of like this is very interesting but I just thought well you know we're out here it's pitch black you can't see barely your hand in front of you I'm just going to take pictures and as you know what's really cool with the iPhones now is that you know you can take a night picture and the lens will stay open so long in order to pull in a lot of light and create an actual picture in the pitch black so I just started messing around because it was actually very beautiful desert picture picture picture picture picture and I'm just taking pictures and then I got to this I guess what I was trying to capture there was this tree and it was very beautiful because you could see the night sky and all the stars and I was trying to capture that through the branches of the tree but I was like oh no I'm getting my finger in the lens I'm ruining the picture so I tried so hard to get my fingers out of it and you know take the picture with the cell phone but it kept happening and then I'm like this is so strange I wonder if there's something wrong with the cell phone and now I'm taking pictures like this and what I'm realizing is I am now I wish I could show you for those of you who are looking at this on Spotify or YouTube the visual the video now I wish I could start posting pictures and showing you this is what I captured I have captured orbs before in my life nothing like this this orb took up the entire top 40% of the photo it was beautiful it was milky and it had other things inside of it and then there were other orbs much smaller around it and this thing was for real and what happened was every time I was moving the phone thinking there was I was doing something wrong or getting my finger in it I was capturing orb orb orb then I go out in the back and I'm taking pictures there was sort of a like a corral wooden like horses might you might have vision horses being behind this kind of corral fence although they were not horses out in the desert it was just pitch black and I'm still taking pictures and later when I'm looking just looking through my photos thumbing through them out and I get anything cool about the desert what I'm seeing is craft coming down and I'm like oh my god seriously of all the people here I'm the one who's kind of the one who didn't drink the Kool-Aid the skeptic and I cannot believe this is happening alright that's that then the next night I'm trying to do this in chronological order yeah so the next night now mind y'all at this point I had some very severe hip issues like medically severe I had severe osteoarthritis that's been resolved now but at the point like sitting was awful for me so the next night we're sitting around this huge circle and everybody is in these really comfortable lawn chairs and I have the shit chair I am not kidding it was this old metal lawn thing it was the worst thing I could have been sitting in and I just thought I was going to lose my mind because it was a very long time for me to sit while she was channeling now if I was comfortable would have been no big whoop but of course okay everybody knows you turn off your phone my phone is turned off everybody's phone is turned off and I'm sitting in this terrible chair and I'm thinking I really it got so bad I started praying and I'm thinking oh my god oh my god oh my god please please please send me help send me help I don't know what to do I don't know what to do this hurt so much to me in my body right now and please you know maybe helps somebody can exchange chairs with me or I can or this will be over and I could take a break or you know just send me help this hurts this hurts okay all of a sudden an alarm goes off in the middle of this absolutely a pin could drop silent desert what the heck and so everybody's looking around because it totally disrupted the channeling and ever for some reason everybody's looking at this amazing wonderful sweet guy out I don't know why we looked at him but it sounded like the noise was coming from there he's scrambling in his bags even he thinks it's him trying to turn this off and he goes oh my god I don't even have a cell phone so everybody's looking around and it's like oh my god it's me it's my cell phone and I pull out my cell phone I don't even understand this makes no sense but it says medical emergency I've never even I still don't know how to set that off if I don't even know if you dial 911 but on my cell phone that's what it says the alarm is coming from my phone I am mortified because I'm pretty new to this group and I've just been invited and I'm making an embarrassment and all this attention is on me and I'm so sorry that I just interrupted anyway all this channeling and the group and I'm trying desperately and I finally am able to shut it off and shut it down well god bless this woman because she's so lovely so lovely because what she said was there is a group of beings actually surrounding our group and she said and they came here and they're facing and of course they were facing in my direction there were other people sitting next to me but they were facing in my direction they came to provide medical help and they're from the future can you believe it we're sitting in sacred ground I'm praying in my head help me help me help me and these beings come and she's channeling this and I am like and so my phone going off was probably my soul crying out for help and also them letting me know we're here medical help has come let me tell you for non-believer I'm starting to go oh my god this stuff is getting so wild and real and also so much gratitude that you all would take your time with me like this and slowly start to bring me in to this world okay it was much more to that story but because it was for the group and intimate I will leave it at that then I start doing some Dr. Steven Greer's CE5 stuff with some friends and the very first time we all go out to Joshua Tree pitch black up against the mountains we're doing CE5 we've also brought music and we're hoping so much to see some spacecraft and we do everything right we have a beautiful evening but nothing happens and we get to about two o'clock in the morning and it's like yeah we're tired and the trip back to LA is it's probably four hours from where we are in Joshua Tree so it's a long drive it's two people in the back of the truck they've fallen asleep the person who's driving the truck and I force myself to stay away because I want to make sure he's not going to fall asleep with all of us in the car and we're getting on the 10 freeway to head back to LA almost to the 60 but not quite there yet and all of a sudden on the freeway at like 2.30 in the morning this huge craft hovers not in front of the truck we're going to run it over but up above in the sky I'm going to make myself smaller so you can see but you can absolutely see it's motionless it's not moving it's this shape it moves correctly it's anyway I'm freaking out oh my god do you see it and I'm yelling pull over pull over and he couldn't pull over because there was actually a lot of cars on the road at 2.30 in the morning and not one car saw it but us what and finally we can safely pull over scramble out with our phones and we're sucked because we were now too much of a distance but we all took photos videos of it and it would stay still and then the craft would move and then hover to another distance and then move and then it was and then stay absolutely still there was no propulsion there was no sound we wrote to people we tried to find out and so many people who are very knowledgeable about this I would definitely call them experts said you know the fact that nobody else saw it this craft was meant for you so that was the next time that I saw something and again I'm like okay this shit's getting real so then I started going to this woman's yearly this famous channel or AT channelers yearly experiences and the next year we went that by the time we arrived you know everybody wanted a bunch of people wanted to stay up I was tired so it's like let's just get in bed because I wanted to make sure I was fresh for the next day when the whole workshop would start and we woke up the next day and at breakfast everybody was talking about the spacecraft they'd seen and I was like are you serious I missed all of that and I was pretty bummed I was very bummed and so yeah so I just kept thinking about sacred space there for a second sorry so I was pretty bummed and I will say but God is good because the very next day we did our workshops all day and then we went out in the mountains now Stephen Greer has talked about this particular place I'm not going to mention it but we were in a very particular place where he has said that in the there's a valley and then there's some mountains and in the caves that there's really extra-terrestrial craft in there and beings who live there and that's like a place for them a port for them and man that was no joke we started doing what we were doing it was so beautiful by the way at these workshops as I got to marry this both of what I attending but also I would sing with my musical partner and so it was beautiful we got to do that out in the desert and then we got to experience the workshop so we did the workshop she's channeling and then all of a sudden everything they had described from the night before came there were three orange orbs in the sky there was also a flashing like I don't even know you know when you're seeing something like this it is not from this world it was like a show in the sky it was amazing it was so beautiful and it's like welcome to the world of UFOs and ETs and I just felt so blessed you know that's what I felt like super humbled grateful you know thank you for showing yourself to me thank you for trusting me I feel very moved by it thank you for bringing the people on my show that you do because you know they're just bringing me more information about all of this and I have such a hungry curious mind and I know many in my audience really do and many in my audience actually have incredible way beyond what I'm saying experiences and by the way I pray for that I actually do a lot I do my morning ritual is very shamanic and I do something called the which is where you open sacred space you use your 8th chakra I can even open weed or kocha over you and put some into Bachamama and to Mother Earth and so I do that and I do something called the bands of power and I do a crown of golds and I also do my chakras I clear my chakras so I've got this whole amazing morning ritual that I do and part of what I pray for come to me come to me please come to me work with me download to me I'm ready for your wisdom I'm ready for direct contact for guidance however that manifests and of course I'm always clear with benevolent beings I'm not just an open portal by any means but it is very important to me that yeah I'm ready for this and I don't know if everything that's been happening has been helping me get ready for this but if that's the next step I'm there I'm really there years ago when I was an eye roller I also was really afraid of this stuff so afraid like the books the movies you know all the propaganda that does not make extraterrestrial life force seem like it's benevolent and it doesn't mean sort of like they're good lawyers bad lawyers bad lawyers good doctors bad doctors good singers bad singers you know whatever in every line of work in every kind of being the good the bad the ugly but predominantly who's looking after us and interacting with us are very benevolent and very advanced and here's what's so funny is that mostly they're us anyway from the future or a concurrent dimension and galaxy so we're kind of dealing with ourselves anyway in just another aspect of us so I'm ready for that I'm even ready to meet the Mayan woman the priestess oh I would love to spend more time with her that was pretty profound she was definitely a mentor for me so I think what I want to do at this point is take another huge leap and one of the things I've been doing is light language and for those of you who don't know what light language is most people do because it's most people are doing it these days it's incredible but it is they say the language of God the language of creation they and by the way it manifests in so many different ways some people just speak it and don't know what they're saying some people most people almost everybody receives it and they receive it completely different and exactly perfectly how they're supposed to hear it and receive it and some people understand and they can speak and translate what they're saying at the same time usually almost always there's a frequency of healing about it you don't have to understand the words and you can just let it be and so I feel this is like mmm for me to step out and do this but I'm really loving this idea of what comes through and here's the thing is I have no idea what will come through I don't speak it I have but mostly their tones so I hope you will sit back and enjoy this as my gift to you this is like mega uber uber uber vulnerability right now however we're on to do this for you my gift to you so I want to just start by saying these cards that I'm holding up again if you'd like to see and experience all of what I'm sharing right now just go to youtube.com slash debbie dashinger or spotify dare to dream with debbie dashinger gotta get the spelling of my name right it ain't the American way there's no d-a-s-h it is d-a-c-h and the first name has no e it's d-e-b-b-i so I say think of my first name like a rib eye steak it's debbie now it's debbie and then think of my last name like dashing through the snow and one horse open sleigh it's d-a-c-h-i-n-g-e-r Austrian okay perfect so these beautiful cards I am holding up are from Jamie Price she's a beautiful creature she has Jamie was recently on my show so if you want to see her interview highly recommended you check it out and she does light language on my show these are her light language oracle cards I love these cards by the way because they're always right so I like to pick a card from here and then we'll see what the message is for everybody so there will be a message for you guys and then I will allow whatever is meant to come through with light language to impart to you about the message of this card so let's see I'm gonna just feel everyone's energy and pick a card for the entire group live recorded replay I know I'm being drawn this one's screaming at me oh I think it's so funny alright serious it's a serious card as in the planet and the people Syrians initiation and its communication so we don't have to look it up but it's kind of more fun to look it up and maybe the extraterrestrial healers will work on my eyesight because I love to once upon a time I had perfect eyesight and I miss that so let's just see very quickly what it says you'll love it I communicate authentically with myself and others oh my god that's like so exactly what I'm doing right now so that means y'all are tasked to that as well notice your authentic intention behind your words observe the silent communication between others to hone your intuitive skills communicate in a compassionate supportive manner do not avoid confrontation at the expense of your empowerment this card is asking you to look at the intent of what you and others communicate and become authentic in your communication you will know when it is the wisdom choice to speak or be silent you have less need to be viewed as right by others find yourself forgiving more easily etc ok that's so beautiful the light language is opening you to a deeper communication with yourself and life supporting your release of patterns of suppression the syrians are helping to open your power of deep communication to improve life hallelujah alright I wish I could hold this up but I'm gonna just put this down here with the rest of the cards alright syrians let's see what comes through that was communication thank you angels for listening and I hope receiving something that I hope is a value for you for those of you who I'm gonna just close we

Hi everyone, Joe for Jaspy's CaseBrakes.com. We did it. We knocked out Jaspy's nine box chasing the king. Basketball mixer giving away this LeBron.  This is today's Wednesday, February 28th, 2024. If you watch the Lakers Clippers game, it was a national game on ESPN, man. What a performance. Look up the box score if you're watching this in the future. What a game. Also, we had a little buy a full spot for a chance at a full spot promo. So big thanks to everybody who got a full spot. That group right there, this group right here. We got that full spot reserve for you. Congrats to the people who won their way in in those Flux basketball breaks. All right, so let's gather everybody's names here. New dice, new list, name on top, gets an extra spot, a little buy one, get one after seven. One, two, three, four, five, six, and I said seven, right? Yeah, one more time, seven the final time, and it's Michael Esper. Thank you. ME after seven, a little extra bonus spot going your way. That little rooftop will help you distinguish it from your other spots. All right, so thanks for getting a full spot. Let's gather everybody's names right here. And now let's do the break. Let's randomize you a team. Let's roll it and randomize it six and a three, nine times for names and teams. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, and nine. Got David down to Andrew after nine, six and a three, nine times for the teams. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, and ninth and final time. And of course, a different dice roll for the giveaways is per normal. Nuggets down to Hornets, and that'll be at the end of the break. All right, David with the Nuggets, Nick Thomas with the Heat, Aaron with the Knicks, Dennis with the Clippers, Hunter with the Raptors, Aaron with the Pacers, Andrew with the Sons, Francis with the Cavs, Macillus with the Grizz, Brian with the Hawks, Ronnie with the Kings, and the Mavs, Jeremy, last spot, Mojo, Pistons. Macillus with the Sixers, Kevin with the Rockets, Josh with the Wizards, Robert with the Bulls, David B with the Magic, Jimmy with the Blazers, Michael P with the Pells, Aaron with the Spurs, Jimmy with the Lakers, Justin with the Timberwolves, the Silas with the Bucks, Michael with the Jazz, and the Warriors. Kevin with the Oklahoma City Thunder, that is. David B with the Nets, Aaron with the Celtics, getting ahead of myself. And Andrew with the Charlotte Hornets. It's alphabetized by team, and we're gonna pause the video. When we come back, we're gonna see if there's any trades, and then we'll have the break. If you're a visual learner, these are the different years and the different boxes in there. So we got some 2020, some 2022, 23, 24 in that Donnerist, some choice boxes from some different years. So a lot of nice stuff, so trade at your own risk. We're gonna pause video, we'll see on the other side. All right, welcome back, ladies and gentlemen. We've got LeBron on the TV right now, scored 19 points in the fourth quarter against the Clippers. Seven from 12 from the field, five of eight from three. I mean, that's why we chased the king in breaks like this. A plus minus of 23, my Lakers are down by 20 some odd points at one point in the evening. It was an ESPN game, so I'm sure a lot of you saw that as well. Maybe even got inspired to get into this break after seeing that performance. Every time, I mean, we've got a couple, we've got some Lakers fans here at the shop and we were watching the game, we're like, man, here we go again.  Mosaic choice, not your turn yet, but that's why LeBron's pretty amazing. Yeah, they outscored the Clippers 39 to 16 in the fourth quarter. They needed this win because the Laker schedule is not easy. They're just gonna have to beat good teams. Palakins, spelled to the Pacers in Indiana. Pacers beat the Palakins, 123 to 114. Mavs beat the Raptors, 136 to 125. I guess every game you got to avoid the blow-up quarter, right, where you just have a bad quarter. Palakins had a bad first quarter. They let the Pacers have 40 points. It was relatively close after that, but that's what did it. Raptors had a blow-up third quarter. They let the Mavs score 40 points, so they're 25 in the third. Curtains, that's that. Timberwolves beat, this one was a little bit closer. Grizz fell to the Timberwolves, 110 to 109. In double overtime, Bulls beat the Cavs, 132 to 123, wow. Nuggets beat the Kings 117 to 96. Game like that, you're gonna have a couple blow-up quarters, right? And Nuggets 37 to 20 in the second quarter, and then 35 to 17 in the third quarter, and that's all she wrote there. And then my Lakers, they overcame, Clippers beat the Lakers 36 to 23 in the second quarter. A little bit closer, 30 to 25 beat the Lakers 30 to 25 in the third quarter. That opened up a 21-point deficit. And then the Lakers just, with LeBron, climbed back. They beat the Clippers in the fourth and the game. Fourth quarter, 39 to 16 Lakers in the fourth. 116 to 112, final score, LeBron, 19 points in the fourth. 19, a nice Haimi Hakes for the Heat. Where's my list? Did I show you the list? I think I did, right? There it is again. So Miami Heat, that'll be for Nick with the Heat. Get that rated rookie Haimi Hakes. Here is a Keldon Johnson die cut to 25. That'll be for the Spurs. Darren with the Spurs. People like those net marvels cars, right? There's Trey Young. Different parallel as well. Brian and the Hawks. Nice Derrick Lively and a Kenyan Martin Junior for the Clippers to 149. There's LeBron James Retro Series. All those Lakers stuff will go to Jimmy. And Jimmy's got a one in 30 chance with the Lakers to get that LeBron. And here's Derrick Lively for Dallas. That's gonna be for Ronnie. Asura Thompson. Kiantay George is even having a nice little season. Here's a press-proof Kiantay George. Love these rated rookie cards. That's what we're looking for here. I think all card ship in this, right? Yes, sir, all card ship. Kiantay George's will go to Michael. Kiantay, Asura Thompson's will go to Jeremy and the Pistons last spot, Mojo. Cam Whitmore, Amen Thompson. No autograph, Anthony Black for the Orlando Magic. David B, I think these are actually quite rare. And might actually do well in the secondary market. At least when this first came out, that's what I heard. I don't know about now. Maybe someone in the chat who knows might shed some more light on that. There's a Bryce Essenbaugh to 149. Michael with the Jazz. Suppose it depends on the player too. Scoot Henderson. I mean, we're just gonna give LeBron, at least for tonight, just a sleeve and eventually gets top loaded treatment. There's Scoot for Portland for Jimmy. The game that he had today, man. Colin Sexton, press proof. I was sitting here talking to my colleagues and being like, listen, we just, I think we're gonna win the playoffs like this. Winning anything in the playoffs. Nice to unleash Tyrese Halliburton. It's a cool looking insert to 99. Pacers, Aaron with the Pacers. It's Brandon Miller and a Wemba Nyama, nice. Spurs, that'll be for Aaron. One an extra, looks like he won an extra spot in the filler and then won a spot in the mixer from that filler and turned that into the Spurs, nice. Brandon Millers will go to Charlotte. It'll be for Andrew. Amen, Thompson Autograph. Kevin and the Rockets. There you go, Kevin. Kevin is twin brother, one of the top picks in the draft. Nice, thanks Oliver. So the last, that's actually not bad. The last Anthony Black No Autograph sale was $30. There's Clay Thompson to $199. And Orlando was picked up by David B. Straight Up. How much was this break, 100 bucks? So that's a third of the cost of the spot already. We're in 2022-23, it's Mosaic Fast Break. Stila had a nice game too, 18 points, six to 10 from the field, three of six, from three, six assists. And Anthony Davis, 20 points, 12 rebounds, couple assists, couple steals, a few blocks. Hachimura, 17 points, two rebounds, a steal. And LeBron, and final line, 34 points, six rebounds, eight assists, couple blocks, plus 11 on the plus-mias. Austin Reeves, 13 points, eight rebounds, five assists, a steal. Sure, no Paul George for the Clippers, but I think we're still down 21 points at one point. All right, next box, what are we looking for here? Find 10 Fast Break prism exclusives, blah, blah. I don't think we're guaranteed autos. No, unwrap one Fast Break exclusive rookie variation on average. There's a variation in there, but I guess maybe autographs aren't guaranteed. Jared Allen Blue to 85, Jalen Williams for the Thunder, and nice, Chet Holmgren. Having an excellent season, Kevin with OKC. Nice draw, Kevin Rockett's Thunder. Jared Allen for the Cavs, Francis with that one. Halobank Carroll, rookie card for David Bionor-Rilando. The cards do get stuck together a little bit here. And we've got a Bryce McGowan's autograph, Fast Break auto for Charlotte, rookie autograph going to Andrew and the Hornets. Numbered as well, it is eight out of 25. Jeremy Sohan, nice season for him, especially next to Wen Benyama, that's a rising tides, lift all boats scenarios for Aaron. Had a decent season last year too. Everyone see that Max Struss shot the other night?  I'm going to sleeve all the LeBrons that I see. We normally don't do that, but on a night like this, we're giving away that LeBron, big game for LeBron. Steven Adams to 50, Grizzlies, Vassilis. Venik Matheran, Keegan, Tawari Smith Jr. There, thank you Oliver. Keegan Murray, Ronnie with the rookie Keegan Murray. I'm going to need a shoebox for this, not a tub. All right, now let's go back to 2023. Thanks Oliver. How's that going? Hope Oliver's still in the chat, at least he's going to say something. Next box, we're going to get the base heavier stuff out of the way first. We'll get into that Chronicles necks and the hybrid box. Don't start working through those really light choice boxes. Actually that spectra is an Asia edition, a T-Mall box, but we'll get into those ones. And then we'll give away the LeBron. What a night for him. There he is, watching over this break. Pelicans, Pacers beat the Pelicans, 123-114. Just looking through the box score here a little bit. Zion, 23 points, he's having a pretty solid season. Brandon Ingram, 30 points. Six rebounds for assist, that effort was wasted. Cesar McCallan, 23 points. Is that Herbert Jones with 14 points? But not enough though, Pacers, having that excellent season. Siakum, 24 points. Miles Turner, 14 and 10. Halliburton, 17 points, 13. Three rebounds and 13 assists, a steal and a block. Matheran, 16 points, four rebounds, a couple assists. Even Rookie Ben Shepherd dropped in 11 points. A rebound and assist, a couple of steals and a block. Nice work for the guard. Yeah, Brian Heyman's like that would look nice on my shelf. Fingers crossed. Mavs beat the Raptors, 136-125. PJ Washington, new Mav, 23 points, six rebounds. Few blocks. Kyrie with 39 points, a rebound and a few assists, a couple of steals and a block. Luca, 30 points, 11 rebounds, 16 assists, two steals. Woo, we got a Keontae Johnson rookie autograph. Hot signatures. OKC, Kevin. Keontae George, Scoot Henderson. Jalen Brown is to 25, artist proof. For the Celtics, that'll be for Aaron.  Scoot, Cam Whitmore. Amen, Thompson. Amen, Thompson. Is that a shorter print or no? Is that a, forget, that's a more common insert or not, but that'll go to Kevin in the Rockets. You'll also get this Amen, Thompson as well. Cam Whitmore as well for Kevin. Brandon Miller, Charlotte, that'll be for Andrew. Oh, Sre Lukas Bide. That's a great performance. I should keep track of that more. I feel like that'd be a fun, like, prop bet. You know, on some, someone's birthday. You know, just bet the overs on their points. There's a purple, Amen, Thompson. For Kevin. Got a Steph Curry. Victor Wimbanyama, nice. Amy Hockes. LeBron James, ignition. He definitely ignited it tonight. Jimmy with my Lakers. This is the Attack the Rack insert, Aaron. Got randomized as Spurs. The Seward Thompson. For the Pistons, Amen's twin brother going to Jeremy. Amen, Thompson. Julian Strother to 199 for Denver. That'll be for David B. Amen for Kevin and Houston. All right, and there's your Hoops box. All right, let's work on some Chronicles here. 2022-23, Chronic. So we're back to the 2022 draft class. Those players right there. And the other fun games of note where we should be kind of looking at some first or second year players. Jaren Jackson, Jr. 33 points, 13 rebounds in an assist. Losing effort, but it's still good. How about Anthony Edwards? Anthony Edwards. 34 points, two rebounds, four assists. A block. Plus minus a plus eight. Love that. Breaking news, he's pretty good. Jalen Duren. More Jalen Duren.

Hi, this is Dr. Don. I have a problem out of Chapter 2 about a competence interval for a population mean. We're given some data, 12 scores for high school seniors on a test, and we're told that the population is assumed to be normally distributed. And we want to they ask us for the sample mean standard deviation, but their old thrust to the problem is to construct a 95% percent of the population mean. Well, you need to make a decision. Do you do a Z test or a T test? Z distribution or T distribution, I should say. The thing to look for when you're looking at these types of problems, are you given the population standard deviation sigma? If you're not given sigma, then for all of our problems, that means you use the T distribution. And here, we're not given sigma, so we use the T distribution. Let's do this first using stat crunch.  So here's our data. We need the sample mean and sample standard deviation. And the way to get that quickly is to go to stat, where we go for most things. This time we want summary statistics, our data is in a column. I'm going to select the column, and I want the mean and standard deviation. I just hold the control key down to select those and click compute. And there we've got our mean 909.83, around the 0.8, standard deviation 304.7. That's pretty quick. Now, we'll go back to get the confidence interval. We go to stat, and we decided we're going to use T distribution, and we've got one sample with data this time. So, we need to select that column, and we want the confidence interval, and it's a 95% confidence interval, so that's the default. And we click compute, and there we have our answer. And let me move this around a bit, so you can see that our answer is what they want, 716.2, around the one decimal place, 1103.4, around the one decimal place. So that's the stat crunch. Now let's do it using Excel. Click on our rectangle again. We're going to open in Excel. It drops down to the bottom, our spreadsheet with the data. Data comes up. We have to click enable editing. So there's our data. And we can do this very quickly using the data analysis, descriptive statistics tool. And here we get this dialog box. Our data is in this first column, and we need to select that. Let me just select it again to make sure I have the right one. Here we go. Got all the data in there. It's in the column. We don't have labels, so that's unchecked. Output range. I'm going to select, yeah, I think I will select C1. We want the summary statistics. We want the confidence level for the mean, and we want 95% confidence level. And we click OK. And it gets answers, and I'm going to expand as you can see. There's our mean, 909.83, our standard deviation, 304.7. And we've got its label, confidence level, but that's really the margin of error for 95% confidence level. So to get our lower limit, it's just equal the mean minus that confidence. And the upper is equal to the mean plus that confidence. So there's our lower level, 716.2, and our upper level, 11.03.4. So that's quick. And you can do it much faster if you don't have to tell people what you're doing. So I hope this helps.


All right, very good morning. It is Monday the 4th of October. Hope everyone is well. Thanks to Piers for covering me last week while I was away. So I hope you enjoyed that and I'll do my best to get Piers more involved at least once per session each week. But yeah, let's go straight to it and talk about the week ahead. Plenty to get you up to speed on. There is a holiday in place. Mainland Chinese markets are closed through Thursday this week for the Golden Week holidays but nonetheless, it's still very busy on the China Evergrande front and there is some news to get you up to speed on that happened overnight. Also, US-China relations are about to become sour once again with a looming meeting in regards to their trade negotiations. There's other updates. Bullish calls on Wall Street for the likes of oil which obviously saw energy firms with the gas price rises that we're seeing globally at the moment outperformed sharply last week. We'll talk about Capitol Hill. Talk a little bit about insider trading as well at the Fed if you haven't heard about that already and then we're gonna look at the week ahead with the week commencing with the OPEC meeting today and bookended by non-farm payrolls on Friday which does mean that we get the various employment indicators as well in US data as we go through this week. But as ever, let's start with the charts and see how things look this morning and things are pretty flat overall. Obviously, me being away is a surefire signal that volatility would pick up in markets and last week it seems that equity certainly came under some pressure. But as I can see on Friday, we did have a bit of a bounce. I was just reading this morning about some of the news that came out that helped trigger that from the new pill that Merck has been talking about to some of the US data that was coming out. Just looking here on a 30 minute candlestick on the S&P 500, I was just taking the kind of overall weekly move actually from last week from Monday high down to the Friday low. And you can see that that fib retracement on the 50% fib worked out nicely on that initial top point that we saw going into wards to close on Wall Street the final hour of trade on Friday before then we kind of pull back a little bit and we're just settling a little lower there going to the European Open as this week gets really underway. On a daily continuation then really Friday's low was quite a strategic key point down around close to 42, 52, 53 which of course was those previous lows that we're seeing back in mid July and also the peak from the previous what was at the time, the all time high back in mid June of this year. Similarly in the NASDAQ pretty similar setup and of course we'll keep an eye on the sensitive tech sector at the moment particularly in the general yield environment that we're seeing at this present point in time and on the daily chart here on the NASDAQ 100 future you can see 14, 471 a key area we're watching not just today but for this week as an area of support any breakdown through there could well see not the next major support level come in towards more closer towards the 200 DMA which is the red line here and also that previous cap to what was the all time high going back to April of this year around the 14,000 type level. Interestingly then if we go from the peak in the NASDAQ that we're seeing around the beginning of September so really pretty much a month to date to where we were on Fridays low that's about a 7.5% pullback and he breached through that aforementioned level that we're keeping an eye on more near term around the 14, 471 level here that would then if we were to push down to those lower levels at the 14,000 mark would be a 10% so technically a full correction at that point. So just to be mindful of otherwise just looking across the asset classes this morning things are pretty quiet. The FX markets broadly flat at the moment not too much moving in the Dixie it did gap a little lower at the reopening but recovered that move. So Euro dollars basically trading unchanged top left cable just pretty much respecting a near term range for the time being down 15. Oil prices obviously seesawed last week but generally elevated and trading at 75.65 this morning down 23 cents just finding some near term resistance at about close proximity to the high that we saw capping some of the price action on Thursday session. All right, well let's get straight into the news because there's plenty to get you up to speed on and I'll try and be as prompt as possible. So shares in China Evergrand Group and its property management unit were suspended from trading overnight. So what's the latest? Well people through the matter have said that a dollar note maturing actually on Sunday so October 3rd issued an initial amount of 260 million dollars by an entity called Jumbo Fortune Enterprises if you hear that name circulating today. It's guaranteed basically that note by Evergrand and as we know Evergrand is kind of this spider's web of lots of different businesses that they're involved in. As the maturities on Sunday the effective date of course then is today. A non-payment of the bond principle would constitute a default as the note has no grace period. So I was reading on Moitaz this morning. Although five business days would be allowed if failure to pay is down to administrative or technical errors according to people familiar with the matter. So there is some ways and means to get around it and so wouldn't be a surprise to see the latter probably materialize. Hopson development holdings limited whose shares were also suspended is as per the headline here in the global times plans to acquire a 51% stake in Evergrand property services group limited according to the Chinese financial news platform as well. So again, couple of different things going on there at the moment. Overall, this news not seemingly overnight really spooking the markets but do bear in mind that China was out and so the main kind of reaction effect to this type of news is probably tempered somewhat by that fact. And just given the sensitivity of how markets were behaving last week, it definitely be quite interesting to keep an eye on things as we go through this European Open this morning because equity index futures, the DAX, I can see is just touching fresh session lows and moved into negative territory. And US equities, of course, we still very much vigilant on some of these lower levels that really near term defined by the lows that were seen on Friday in the futures market. Sticking with the region in US-China relations, it's not looking too healthy there either at the moment. Biden's top trade official, it's a lady called Catherine Tai, she will announce that China has not complied with phase one trade deal according to sources at the weekend on CNBC. You know, you might be forgiven for forgetting that actually there is a trade deal happening at the moment and it's still in phase one at this point in time. Sources have added that the USTR is evaluating potential actions then for that non-compliance from China, one of which includes the possible for additional tariffs. So it seems like we're pretty much back to square one again in that sense. The trade representative will outline Biden's administration's US-China trade strategy where she delivers marks later on today to the Center for Strategic Studies at 3 p.m. London time today. So do be on the lookout for that. The more aggressive, the rhetoric certainly talk about additional tariffs and things of that nature could well be just another weighted factor to just impede sentiment and could well just in the context of some of the matters that were moving markets in a negative way last week further fuel that kind of view. However, the idea of coming down to possible additional tariffs, I'd say it's probably a little bit too early for that at the moment. And a lot of this, of course, is just that kind of verbal rhetoric in order to bring China back to the table and get conversations back underway after what we saw was a relative deterioration of some of that relationship over the last few weeks despite the call that happened between Biden and Xi. Otherwise, flipping over to oil, just wanted to talk about two banks really. And as everyone knows, people are getting ever more bullish on oil. But two banks, and I wanted to quickly go over their rationale. I know there's a lot of students that I've been talking to even on my week off who have interviews at the moment as they go through the kind of internships for next year and grad positions and so on. And it's always good to know the rationale behind a bank's call. So when Bank of America's the headline here says oil's gonna hit 100, why precisely did they have that kind of bullish outlook? So I'm gonna start with JP Morgan first. They said that warning that worsening natural gas crisis in Asia and EU will spur so many power generators to switch to petroleum-based fuels that crude will hit $84 a barrel by year end. And that is roughly around a 7% or 7.7%, in fact, increase on their prior call that they had. Gas is so expensive in some places that switching could add, as it gives context, more than 900,000 barrels to daily demand for crude. Hence the reason why then a bit more of a bullish outlook for price. They did, however, say that their significant downside risks do remain. Chinese refiners appear to be reducing production rates or preparing to idle some equipment to perform repairs and maintenance and both would curb demand. But in response, they doubt OPEC Plus will make any change to existing output targets and their meeting of course today. Meanwhile, Bank of America has put a headline here. They're feeling even more bullish. They've said the global energy crunch could help propel oil prices over a hundred bucks a barrel for the first time since 2014. They said in summary, the boost to crude be driven by three factors. Number one, the global energy crunch could help in response to gas to oil switching as a result of high gas prices. Two, a jump in crude consumption over a cold winter. And three, higher aviation demand as the US reopens its borders as well. So I think the summary of those threes is quite a good rationale if you're ever stuck in that interview question about why oil might go up higher. Otherwise, moving elsewhere on the geopolitics but political side of things coming out of Capitol Hill, still not a great deal of movement so far that the latest is according to the FT that senior Democrats are willing to lower their three and a half trillion dollar cost of spending measures in Biden's kind of signature bill following days of infighting. And basically party leaders have given members enough or another month to come to an agreement over a package which progressives insist must be passed at the same time as they've always been pushing for as the 1.2 trillion infrastructure by partisan bill. Meanwhile, whips are also trying to forge a cross-party consensus to lift the US debt ceiling before the potential then for a default later this month, October the 18th, I think is the date in the diary of when this really become serious. But as I was understand when I was away on the back end of last week we started to see some really meaningful movement in short dated bills markets in the US as people start to price in the potential shutting of government and government shutdown over the lack of progress on this. Overall consensus probably still remains irrespective of some of that pricing movement we had on Friday that ultimately these politicians will come together and make some kind of deal to lift the debt ceiling they inevitably always do. And so I pretty much subscribe to that view but until we get to that point obviously uncertainty probably will just start to ratchet up a little bit as we go forward over the course of the next two weeks or so. The other thing that I thought was just unbelievable I think this did come out on Friday but in case you missed it the Vice Chair Richard Clarida. So this is the Vice Chair of the Fed Clarida is about as aligned with Jerome Powell as you're gonna get in terms of seniority and also his view generally on monetary policy and it works come to light that he traded between one and five million US dollars out of a bond fund into stock funds one day before Powell issued a statement indicating potential policy action due to the worsening COVID-19 situation at the time and obviously that was what really fueled then the equity rise at that period of time. So it just so happens then that he was switching out of those positions the day before that announcement came which is very suspect as you can imagine. So definitely expecting more on this. I wasn't here last week but depending on how much airplay this got I mean, Clarida's got to go I would say which does make things quite interesting then as to then you've got a bit of a hole to fill he is the Vice Chair who takes that position so on and so forth. So something which we'd be expecting to hear a little bit more as we go on throughout the week but quite an unbelievable headline. From a single stock perspective just really wanted to run through three quick stories to be aware of from the weekend. Tesla for one delivered a better than expected 241,300 cars in worldwide in Q3. Expectations were for around 223,000 and that is a record for the electric car maker and this of course comes after I was reading Eddie's market maker notes last week. You've had quite a few infamous investors dumping Tesla holdings but the car company coming out of the weekend and delivering better than expected worldwide car sale numbers for Q3. The other headlines that I thought I would share was Tesco. They will announce a share buyback program this week according to the Sunday Times they're due to unveil their results for the first half later on this week. And also for Morrison's US private equity group Clayton W.N. Rice has triumphed in the four month long takeover of W.N. Morrison with a bid of 9.97 billion sterling works out of the round 287 pence of share including debt for the UK's fourth largest supermarket. All right, let's talk about the week ahead. What have we got on the agenda? I'm really going to cut to the chase and focus on the US and as per the usual build up we'll get the likes of ADP on Wednesday headline expected at 500,000. That does mean that we're looking out for things like jobless on Thursday were expected at 350,000. We've also got today from the US factory orders coming out this afternoon and then book ending the week of course is non-farm payrolls. And so non-farm payrolls, few things to be aware of here. Employers are probably expected to have stepped back or stepped up, I should say they're hiring in September after lack of extra jobs growth a month earlier. Remember the previous number on the headline came in at 235,000. So another low ball figure. We are expecting that to pop back up. Bloomberg consensus is around half a million. And really what's the idea behind this and why is it going to be important? Well, it's the only new jobs report that we're going to get until we go into what is the penciled commencement really more formally of tapering in a November Fed meeting. So this is really a decisive data point to really seal the deal on that taper announcement more than anything. And I'd say anything around that consensus figure of around 500K is pretty much going to do the job in that fashion. And so a few other things that we're looking out for in the run up to this as I said is a few other US data points coming out of which a few things like the unemployment rate could be quite interesting from the payrolls report as well analysts at ING have said it may prove somewhat sticky. The consensus estimate for the unemployment rate in the US is for it to fall to 5.1 from 5.2% but still remain largely elevated. ING noted the ending of pandemic related extended and uprated unemployment benefits will be forcing an increasing number of people to start looking for work. And that means a supply of workers is rising and there should in theory be a greater pool of workers for employers to choose from. However, with many of these new potential workers not having worked for more than a year the fight to find start for the right skill sets at a time when there are 11 million job vacancies in the US is likely to keep wage rates pushing higher. So just to make sense of some of the breakdown of that payroll report, the kind of three main constituents of it the headline changing on fun payrolls the unemployment rate and the average hourly earnings. US ISM services index is due on Tuesday. So you can see that number here. Of course we'll keep an eye on that employment constituent overall the headline should benefit from the decline in COVID cases, more people engaging of course in the service sector as restrictions loosened and behaviorally people start to return back to some degree of normality. Otherwise looking elsewhere on the calendars a few other things to be aware of outside of the US the ECB policy makers insist a surge in prices of which we have seen most recently to a 13 year high in September will be temporary and what people investors will be looking at this week is the ECB minutes of their September decision which is going to be released on Thursday. That will allow investors to gauge the strength of that conviction of transitory inflation. On the same day the ECB and Cleveland Fed and the US officials will address a joint conference studying inflation specifically and could given how much of a hot topic that is it's definitely worth tuning into. That's again on Thursday. As far as today is concerned something that doesn't appear on this kind of macro calendar. You do have the OPEC meeting. So the Joint Ministerial Monitoring Committee the JMMC are meeting at two o'clock. That's going to be followed by OPEC plus meeting at three PM this afternoon subject to any delays. So as always with OPEC keep an eye out for any types of rumors and leaks and things like that that start to materialize. Markets expect OPEC plus to stick to its plan of hiking monthly output by 400,000 brows per day with delegates recently suggesting that the meeting is likely to be a smooth affair. So of all the OPEC meetings we've had over recent months probably a lesser exciting one to that extent. Meanwhile again off the Western markets going over to the Asia Pat region the Reserve Bank of Australia meet tonight. So I'll be updating you in the briefing this time tomorrow. They're set to leave its main policy leavers unchanged even as surging home prices drive calls for lending curbs. In contrast the RBNZ in New Zealand is likely to raise interest rates to address its own frothy property market. And then finally in Japan one thing I wanted to mention is that Japan's long-serving finance minister Tara Asso is likely to be replaced early this week as the incoming Prime Minister. So as you can see here who was the former foreign minister of course Fumio Koshida forms his new cabinet. Analysts also see Koshida announcing a fresh stimulus package to help support Japan's recovery. And as per reports overnight in a surprise move the incoming PM who formally takes office today is set to dissolve parliament next week and call an election for October 31st according to broadcasters overnight as well. But overall Yen movement fairly benign in reaction to any of that information overnight. So that is pretty much it for the week.
