hughes is part of, what you see is a very clear uptrippeend. now we've seen a bounce higher if we look at a chart of baker hughes, what you see is that same uptrend, that same clear uptrend that we've pulled back to after that 40% massive decline that i think now we're going to bounce higher and continue higher. but most importantly, if you look at the relative performance of baker hughes to the oih, oil services etf, this is a stock that for the most part trades on par with the etf so as we expect the etf and the stock to bounce higher from the trend lines, i expect a little outperformance from this stock based upon where it's currently positioned recently they sold off their operations in russia apar and the sale clears the deck and provide as opps a long expo. i don't want to pay too much team in time decay because i don't have a direct catalyst for this in the short run. i'm going to use a trade structure that meek uses quite often. i'm going out to october and looking at the 24, 26, 29 call spread risk reversal i'm selling a $24 put option

our health editor, hugh pym, is here with this thoughts.e for england as health is devolved. top of the agenda will be a&e and ambulance delays. according to the association of ambulance chief executives, handover delays caused harm to thousands of patients — ambulances lost almost 333,000 hours in the year tojuly 2022 — 18 times more than during the same period two years ago. that's because of logjams across the system, including hold—ups discharging patients fit to go home. this may be an extreme example — ambulances queueing last week to hand over patients at one hospital, but there were delays at many others. one heart attack patient told us he waited two and a half hours for an ambulance, and his partner had to take him into hospital. i was told that i wasn't out of the woods, and if i'd left it any longer, or my partner had left it any longer getting me in, i wouldn't have made it. and then there are the workforce issues. a commons report published last month found that england is now short of 12,000 hospital doctors and more than 50,
