coming out of other stocks, then you get the downdraft, right you got to be careful about the scenario weir you paint. >> okay, fair enough but i am assuming the money goes somewhere else that's because we don't have great alternatives it's not a great idea to plunge it in cash no return. still stuck with bonds at 1.25% on the 10-year you can't find return in bonds i am assuming that if money were to come out of those it would be ultimately reinvested in stocks maybe not in the top -- in the top five, not in the fang names. so you're right. i'm presuming it's reinvested elsewhere. and continues as broadening out leadership in the market. >> that feels that way in practical theory you think money would come out and find a home somewhere else unless you have such a period of uncertainty for variety reasons. be it delta variant, upcoming taper and money looking for the mattress rather than for the market market for a period of time, could be a short period of time, maybe longer what else is interesting, rich saperstein i would like your broader market view you haven't been with us a while. you
