• 1:51
  Speaker 3: So we're going to talk about presidential situation in a minute,
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: but before we talk about that, we want to talk
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: about the global tech out that happened last week that
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: is still continuous. Six hundred flights got canceled today. Delta
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: had a can six hundred flights today, So there's still
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: ramifications of the global tech outage that happened last week
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: still continuing this week.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: And a major.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: Player in that is CrowdStrike, a company that we've talked
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: about a lot on the show, and as a result
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: of that, their stock tumbled over the last two days
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: Friday and today, So first thoughts on a global tech outage,
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: but then also specifically CrowdStrike. So it's hovering around like
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: two sixty five ish areas, so over thirty percent drop
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: from it's fifty two week high. So would this be
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: a buying opportunity for CrowdStrike?
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Let's go fall more?
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: Truth be told, Probably need to wait till two forty
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: nine seventy seven. Hell of a drop. Great company. This
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: is now for those of you who have been in it.
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: If you experienced twenty percent drop rule of thumb, please
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: put it in chat. If it drops twenty percent and
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: it's not a top five company, you need to sell
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: it and repositioned in So two forty nine seventy seven
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: if you buy it at seventy seven or two sixty cool.
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: But I would be waiting for two forty nine seventy
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: seven if I wanted to buy it long term. Troy,
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: you're right, CrowdStrike it's not better than TESLAA Elon. I'm
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: so sorry. I think what you're saying to me out
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: of here. Yeah, because it was. I mean, we got
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: a lot of text about it. You know, it's still
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: a great company.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Uh, losing twenty billion dollars in evaluation in the three
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: day span is just it's tumultuous. It's a tough run
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: for them, But it talks about the importance of cybersecurity.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: The most important thing I thought that came from it
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: was like people heard the name CrowdStrike and then it
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: became the number one thing searched on Google.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: It was like nobody knew what this company was.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: But it talks about the importance of cybersecurity when it
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: can affect banks, when it confects travel, when it can
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: affect large enterprise and can affect hospitals, and then it's
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: customers as well, right, So you yeah, I mean it
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: first started with Microsoft saying hey, we're down. And the
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: interesting thing is that Microsoft has its own cybersecurity, but
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: they were still using this platform. Obviously it was leading
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: in the space. It's gonna be tough. Like like you said,
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: I was just gonna say that, thanks.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: You know, we spoke about market shares last week when
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: we talk about Tesla inside the EV space. When when
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: you talk about market shares inside of cybersecurity, when you
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: ask the.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: Question, are they better than Tesla?
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: And I was kind of like, nah, there's so much competition,
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: those margins are a lot smaller, right, so they don't
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: have eighteen percent market share, but like right next to
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: them is Microsoft was seventeen percent, and I think Polo
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: Alto is next up with probably.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Like fifteen percent.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: And so you can see when an event like this
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: happens from a company like this, when you're the number
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: one in the space, you're gonna you're gonna lose.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: Some clients and that's gonna happen. Does it still remain
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: a great company? Yeah?
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Will it be number one in the space that is
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: in question is in high doubt, high doubt right now,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: But there are still people who still believe in it.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: I just saw Kathy Wood was just invested in twelve million, a.
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: Sign that is not going to do well. Look, Kathy,
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: I love you, ark shot to the entire team. Y'all
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: mean the world to me.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: That is a sign that.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: Is before before the situation was even resolved. You saw
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Elon said, look, we'll out we're no longer using this
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: in any of us before they could even.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: Fit fix the issue.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: That doesn't help Microsoft obviously, you know this is a
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: huge issue for them. They may look at it as
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: like we don't need you as a client anymore. So yeah,
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: I think the stock moves down a little bit more.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: We spoke about it in shout out to everybody in
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: ey l u H and a few options called. But
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: this is why it's like, yo. The long term is great.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Leaps are great, but if you're going to do short term,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: be very calculated. If you have a percentage, hit your
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: percentage and move on. Got a few texts about, hey,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: I was up one hundred and percent in the stock.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: We pulled down to one hundred and ten. What should
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: I do? You're still up one hundred and ten percent?
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: Rights.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: This is one of those things like count the blessing
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: and say, is this an opportunity to watch it fall?
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Or do I take profit? Or do I reposition? I
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: think those are the questions that people should ask. But
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: it's a good question to ask yourself if you're in
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: that position. But I think most importantly is that people
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: have strategy and they didn't panic when they saw it
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: overall for the week. I mean, it was a tough week,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: but people didn't panic. And that's kind of what I'll
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: talk about a little bit more later.
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: Gross margins seventy five percent, profit margin two point nine
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: to two percent.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: You cannot get me to believe.
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: That because you did a single line of code out
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: of billions of lines of code that have made a
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: worldwide outage happen, or because you push an update to
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: Falcon if you go on wickstock Com or score space,
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: they got control measurements in place to make sure that
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: when the update goes it does not mess up.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: And then kudos to the CEO.
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: But when you went on seeing b see in three
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: p sixty p I said, oh baby, not a good sign.
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: I'm here to tell the truth today. When we get
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: to the political commentary, I'm gonna even out and be responsible.
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: But right now, CrowdStrike Paula Auto is on you. Microsoft
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: is on you. And then, as a result, because now
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: more than ever, because of the political climate, we'll get
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: to it in a little bit, every company has to
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: be stronger and safer than ever because we have unrest
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: like we haven't seen in a long period of time.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: SATI is pissed enough.
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: Microsoft. I'm disappointed for you at the DEI decision. I
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: want to be very clear about that. But SATI is
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: not gonna let this fall on them. And then CrowdStrike
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: you should have to. You have to look out for
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: lawsuits that are going to come their way as a
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: result of this. Fellas if you were going to book
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: that flight, you got a good excuse to why you
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: can't do it today, though tune in the blackout.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: Maybe I was going to.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: But they were adamanted about it not being a cyber attack.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: What's your thoughts on that. I think it was just
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: an upgrade issue.
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: It was a world wide outage, and you want to
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: have me believe that y'all messed up in the uploading
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: of the.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: New software program.
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: We've had Houston without power center point eight hundred million
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: in mobile power units that never touch down in Houston.
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: We'll get to that one day. Presidential attack or assassination attempt.
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: President incumbent steps down, and you want to tell me
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: that you didn't fuck up the code or the software push? Yeah, right,
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: because if you say a cyber attack, you're out of business.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: Soilverwick the largest in history, the largest outage in the
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: history of the world.
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: Brosign's in the airports wild what yeah, yeah, Rest in peace,
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: John McAfee. We're gonna have a conversation about John on
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: blackout one day. But that's I got a call the
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: International Monetary Fund mature protective first.
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: So an illegal alien from Guatemala charged with raping a
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: child in Massachusetts. An MS thirteen gang member from Al
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: Salvador accused of murdering a Texas. Man of Venezuelan charged
• 9:19
  Speaker 5: with filming and selling child pornography in Michigan. These are
• 9:23
  Speaker 5: just some of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: President Donald J. Trump's leadership. I'm Christy Noman, the United
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: States Secretary of Homeland Security. Under President Trump, attempted illegal
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: border crossings are at the lowest levels ever recorded, and
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: over one hundred thousand illegal aliens have been arrested. If
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: you are here illegally, your next you will be fined
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: nearly one thousand dollars a day, imprisoned, and deported. You
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: will never return. But if you register using our CBP
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: home app and leave now, you could be allowed to
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: return legally. Do what's right, leave now. Under President Trump,
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: America's laws, border and families will be protected.
• 10:05
