all right welcome everybody we’re doing a zoom metal monday because it we got israel this week and brett’s already down there right so it was good man i’m losing you losing you in the casino with uh my family our spring break at the same week i’m in before we uh really really start going to work cool man um well let’s talk about the market real quick so you can get to eminem world um what’s the rumblings how’s everything doing you know as far as the markets they look fairly strong i mean the stock market’s getting kind of creamed today but the idioms uh platinum’s up you know rhodium is hanging around um copper is sideways-ish you know it was off a couple cents it’s kind of crawling its way back came back you’re like 70 yeah 474 copper which is pretty dang good all things considered you know um yeah aluminum aluminum is up this morning um nick was swimming down again we have nickels down again i mean that nickel thing was getting real funky with uh them suspended going up so high and then that’s lme suspending all trades i

mean i’ve never seen anything like that you know so it’s kind of wild so well i’m definitely looking forward to some uh just some misery action here in vegas just because i’m curious to hear what everybody else’s opinion are is on these markets so looking forward to some of the forums or whatever we’re really just looking forward to saying hi and getting to see some people that i haven’t seen in a long time so yeah yeah thank you very much biggest thing for me and even the booths like just walking around looking at the booths there’s sometimes a new tech coming out some new new stuff for our industry that’s cool that might you might have missed if you didn’t go to this show you know so you know i’m an equipment i’m a self-proclaimed equipment junkie so yeah oh i lost you again about me right now i’m gonna leave i’ll see what’s happening all right man well we’re kind of losing my gun now yeah but oh we got you back but anyway well well and next week will be a week closer to april what kind of do you think

i’m back now yeah you’re back yeah i’m real curious what ferris does in april you know is that everyone you know i think it looks strong it seems strong he’s frozen well like you heard him april looks strong let’s hope it stays strong april april looks pretty strong so i think i think that’s a good thing we’ll uh keep an eye on it and see but so far i mean the markets are the markets want to hang in there and honestly with it going up crazy like it did and correcting i mean anything that’s kind of a good sign that this might hang around for a little while you know because it’s exactly natural if it would have kept going to 550 copper you know to 4 000 uh palladium well then you might be looking at like a similar like look at a similar scenario of like nickel where that thing blasts forward and all of a sudden nobody knows how to trade it nobody knows how to buy it or sell it or anything like that and it just creates a kind of issue so so it’s almost a good thing it’s

kind of some steams come off of it because then it looks like these markets might be more sustainable throughout the year so we’ll keep everyone informed and uh i’ll see you here in a few days really okay yeah man i’ll be around thanks buddy good one have a great year bye
