q relative to what we've seen q recently in these summer doldrums not bad.q >> i agree with what you said at the beginning, i like the volume. and you know what, maria, i think you're absolutely right.q the other thing i would point q out, the zero return that a lot of this money has been getting on the sidelines is changing today because we saw a two-poinq sell-off in the 30-year bond.q we saw better than a one-point sell-off in some of the intermedia intermediate-term securities. interest rates are moving up a little on the curve, and i think it's linked to those fed minutes and the fact they see the economic contraction lessening and also the lack of any more significant treasury purchases. the question is whether or not that will drive more people intq the equity markets, whether the risk is worth the reward to q them. and i agree with you.q volume is going to be key in the next couple of days. but this really isn't bad, given the fact that we're in the middle of july. >> no doubt about it. randy, you mentioned a moment ago $4 trillion on the sidelines. is that the number you used? >> yes indeed. >> okay. so $4 trillion. let's say hypothetically speaking we do get some evidence that this rally has legs. what do

our theory is that q-2 can be no worse than q-1, traffic growth to the google site continues to be massivef april and may are any indications. and then you have a cfo who is very intent on lowering costs. so i think all in all, we'd go into the quarter owning the stock here. >> what do you see in terms of advertising? the outlook for advertising for the rest of the year? >> yeah, so it's interesting. what we're hearing from agencies, we continue to see soft ad budgets, but they continue to see fair amount of spending on what works. and search is definitely at the -- top priority for a lot of them. so all in all, we -- our estimates for search is mid to high single -- yeah, mid-single digits display down. mid single digits, but that's still against traditional media, that's down 20% to 30%. >> always a pleasure to speak with you. youssef uali. in these markets, i'm ad i turned to fidelity for an aty with guaranteed inco f life. that's right, guarante income for life. it's guaranteed, matter what happens. if granteed income for life sounds good to you, do what i did -- let fility be your gui
