Did you guys go back to the S and P for a minute?
When we look at the past week here, we're kind of, you know, uh lower than where we were, but we made a little bit of a round trip.
So we'll see if that keeps going.
It was a quite a broad based rally today as we pointed out earlier, the Russell 2000 keeping pace with the S and P 500 its gains.
And then also if you look at the of either the Dow or the NASDAQ 100 you see not a lot of red one stock very slightly in the red and the Dow and that's United Health Care.
