Now it's time for the Anchorman podcast with Matt Gates and Dan Ball.

Welcome back to The Anchorman Show.

I'm Matt Gates, alongside my good friend and occasional colleague and coworker Vish Burra.

Vish, thanks as always for being here to discuss what's been going on this week.

And we'll be joined a little bit later by another member of our team, Chris Chello.

But before we get to that, we have seen the stock market undulate

like it was the 80s again. Okay. No longer is the slow ride up with the S&P 500, the ride you are on.

We have seen big drops, big rises. And I kind of think it may be a new trend line for us that in an era of reset and

reorganization there are going to be some peaks in valleys how do you think politically

we should deal with an undulating stock market as maybe a new feature of American life?

Well, I think that we, you know, we as Americans, we kind of live and die by those numbers every day

because that's what gets pumped in our media every day.

That's the message that we get every day.

And, you know, the thing we also have to remind ourselves is that, you know,

fear sells for a lot of these programs, right?

And so when the stock market takes a dip, red, they use red everywhere to kind of show

that we're going down, right?

Something's wrong.

But, you know what, the story that I never heard, so, you know, since 1995, the stock market, you know, has been up six or 700% to date, right?

And that is a story we never get.

That we don't talk, we don't celebrate, you know, when the stock market is up that 100%.

You didn't hear any of those stories.
