let's talk about it with liz ann saunders and we got larry mcdonald's joining us as well.iz ann, you know, we all are trying to parse through janet yellen's comments of last week and what it means for the future of interest rates and how soon they start raising rates. where do you guys at schwab stand on that issue right now and what does that do to your thoughts about investing in the stock market? >> so, i would put myself somewhat in bullard's camp. i have been pretty optimistic we would continue to see a decline in the unemployment rate, and that has to do with at least my view and i don't know that it's shared widely, but my view that the decline is more secular than it is cyclical and has most to do with demographics and retirement. there's no reason why that trend shouldn't continue so you would expect to see the trajectory go down. now, i think part of the reason why the fed went to qualitative guide sense they didn't want to be hamstrung by a 6.5% unemployment rate. unless inflation really heats up, i think they're going to be comfortable watching that go down com

i don't know whether those buoys they dropped, the drop saunders that go into the area to mark a spot vector the ships to the specific locations where they're pulling these items out. i will say, if we go back and take a look at that video again and you can see what they're pulling out, at least on board the chinese ship, this is a very, very small item that they're pulling out. i think it's perhaps remarkable that those tiny little items may have been even spotted from an airplane. >> right. >> these may be items likely spotted by members of the crew. and since i'm looking at this footage and it's going on at nighttime, i'm kind of surprised that traveling at night in those seas, even with lights they would be able to see something to pull out and retrieve it. you know, a lot of people don't really quite get it, and i think they're getting an education now about how much garbage there really is in our world's oceans. and this is once again, he guess, sort of reflecting now that we see the pictures here, what the experts have been saying all along. there's a lot of stuff out there. an
