ellen: i think it is labor force participation. fluctuates from month to month, but we want to continue to see that prime labor force participation rate pickup. decembers data, but more so january, which we have to wait some time to get, is going to be marred by omicron, so you do get some damage to labor force participation around these variants, but we know that is temporary. we know that jobs were positive, and the fed mentioned this in their minutes. so we are continuing to make progress. whether it is 260,000, which is my expectation, whether it is close to consensus, that is still healthy job gains over the month of december, so it is really labor force participation. are we getting people back into the labor markets? lisa: help us interpret it from the fed's point of view. let's say that participation rate has not increased materially. does that make it more or less likely that the fed will go ahead and tighten sooner? ellen: i think when you listen to their words, they are very confident that we will continue to see improve

ellen: we are doing both.are seeing the growth beneficiaries really begin to get the wind taken out of their sales, so the very expensive growth names that had high valuations are probably done for, at least for a while, but there are plenty of less-expensive names you can buy , and in addition to that, there are plenty of growth names that are not super expensive, and that is what i think is really interesting. you can buy quality growth even as a very hyper growth that is expensive is going out of favor. i think the thing that is going to give us the opportunity to buy the dips is the reports we continue to see. we're looking at the high-frequency data, which we have talked about a lot, and frankly, what companies are saying on their calls, very mixed information. at the same time, it looks like omicron might be fading after having peaked possibly, but then again, we are looking at margins possibly declining throughout the year, so it is a very mixed bag and we think february is going to bring increased vola

ellen: i think it is both. is now an awareness that even if opec+ says we are going to increase by this amount, that the actual amount on the market will be somewhat lower. i think in december, they were only able to increase by 310,000 barrels per day. we have not gotten the january numbers yet, and we will have to see what happens in terms of the increases, but there are definitely a bunch of nations tapped out, and no one is really compensating for that. they are all very much attuned to sticking within their individual quotas. on the other hand, you've got a lot of speculation being fueled by some of the forecasts for big banks, also the energy crisis in europe, and now you've got the threat of potential sanctions for russian energy that could really through the market into a lot of chaos, so there really isn't much that opec+ can do on that end. kailey: let's talk about the threat of russian sanctions as it relates to europe. energy is not exempted from that. what are the ripple effects? ellen: this is i t
