creates defensive guy guys looks offensive room strong style teams view
There's some offensive linemen to be had. Linebacker is a pretty strong position. It looks like you can get some defensive linemen, but not a lot of them. Teams are going to different fronts and doing different things, so it creates more room for a different style of lineman. You'll take a different guy for a 3-4 team than you would a 4-3 team, so that creates a different look and view there. There are more of those 3-4 guys than there are 4-3 guys at end.
assessment balanced beginning bias bottoms definitely economy fed huge inflation major playing ready risk sort stress
Everything's playing into the idea that the stress in the economy is beginning to ease. The Fed will take that bias away from inflation and make their risk assessment more balanced between inflation and growth. I think in all of the major indexes the bottoms have sort of been made here in October, and now we're ready to advance. I don't think it's a huge advance...trends are definitely in the investors' favor.

bargains care chance energy flowing forward fourth grow health instead leaders led means might money move previous prices quarter rally summer sure talked technology third
I think if you are short-term trader, the idea is that the summer rally is probably going to be led by technology as we go up here in the near-term. And that means you're going to probably move away from some of the previous leaders. We talked a lot about health care, a lot about energy - some of that money is flowing back to tech right now. But I'm not sure that as we look forward to the third quarter and the fourth quarter, and we grow instead of 7 percent, more like 4 percent, some of those prices are going to come down too. I think you might look for some bargains in health care and energy here, during the sell-off. In technology, I'd look for some big leaders who have a chance to come back.

We couldn't get any takers. As it happened, he just fell to us. A lot of times, the deals you don't do are the best deals.

against begin coming companies continue far fourth growth nice people profit quarter quarters rate retail slow slowing sort third tough until worry
We have had really spectacular profit reports, by and large, from most companies so far in this quarter. I think retail will be a disappointment, going forward. But, up until now, without any retailers, we've had a nice run. But people have been saying, you know, first of all, the growth rate has slowed from the first quarter to the second, and then the projections are that they will continue to slow down in the third and fourth quarters - we're coming up against really tough comparisons. And I think you know as people look to sort of the slowing of the growth rates, they begin to worry about valuations.
fed fight
I don't think you want to fight the Fed going into the end of this year.
