Mexico's central bank is also due to meet after stronger-than-expected growth in the latest quarter, which could reduce the urgency of easing.

For currency investors, the policy language may matter as much as the actual decision.

Everything starts with a visit, you know, for folks to come here and understand that why we say Bartlesville is such a special place.

And I've said for years, you know, when Phillips Petroleum Company was headquartered here, and then even after the merger and then the split with ConocoPhillips and Phillips 66, I used to tell friends the world rotates through Bartlesville, Oklahoma.

You know, I could travel somewhere in the United States or even somewhere else in the world, and I could interact with someone who has been to Bartlesville or know about Bartlesville.

Or flat out lived there.

The goal is to represent you and to listen to you and to make sure that you're heard and then take your concerns to the city.

Be that gate, be that bridge, that door that takes your concerns to city management and city staff.

So, you know, I believe those experiences of serving combined with professional background of having worked in the church world or work at corporate, you know, with Phillips 66 and ConocoPhillips, and then now serving nonprofit world working at Eldercare, those things combined kind of prepare me to serve our community in a different way and to really represent those folks in Ward 1 to the fullest.

Now, you've outlined three priorities for Baltimore.

Qualcomm, I think, has got a future upside that people undervalue because they think of them still as a phone chip manufacturer.

ConocoPhillips, some of the energy stuff there.

Southern Earnings, initial jobless claims, 30-year mortgage rate.

Freddie Mac.

I really should spend some time figuring out why.

I'm just lazy.

But ConocoPhillips is at their 52-week high today, 152.91 a share.

Chevron and Exxon are both very close to their 52-week high, with Chevron at 234.56 and Exxon at 185.84. And here is the chart that I want to see so badly.

Would the government actually say, you know what, we're going to invest in Shell.

We're going to invest in Exxon and ConocoPhillips.

We're going to invest in some of these.

We're going to hold shares.

As of October 16th, there were 106 frack crews in the Permian Basin compared to 97 the previous week and 93 one year ago.

ExxonMobil remains the leading Permian operator with an average of 34 active rigs, followed by Devon with 21, Diamondback with 19, ConocoPhillips with 18, Occidental with 17, and Mewborn Oil with 14.

The U.S. Department of Energy Carlsbad Field Office, along with the operating contractor Salado Isolation Mining Contractors, have entered into an interagency agreement with OSHA.

And that's to transfer three large-platform lithium-ion batteries from the DOE's Waste Isolation Pilot Plant outside of Carlsbad.

whatever.

And the thing is, is, is people aren't telling you that, you know, well, I've got this serious in with ConocoPhillips and I have this, this pipeline of this or whatever.

And so you're not seeing the way that people are actually building their businesses.

You don't really have all that insight.
