I think it's a combination of

things.

Traditionally, certainly in perioptic care, national audits have been hugely resource-intensive.

Huge amounts of data collection on a per-patient basis.

And we're happy with that because it demonstrates the need for improvements and outcomes.

And the data that comes out facilitate conversations that we can have with our own organizations to say, we need to be able to have a consultant in Vietnam or a major lapotomy for example.

But there is a limitation to that, particularly now when resources are tight.

again, probably new

How significant were her contributions to your community?

It was, um, it was a great contribution, uh, to a volunteer fire department.

Uh, $20,000 is a lot of money.

In our particular station, we were able to replace a roof and buy some, uh, much needed gear.

And most of the departments within the county, uh, used the money for varying things, but, uh, primarily for buying gear and, um, updating the station.

How encouraging, encouraging was it for the people in your community to know that Dolly never forgot about where she came from?

It's, um, she contributed to, um...

As we go through this, uh, you'll find out that, that she contributed, um, in a, a bunch of different ways, uh, with the local hospitals, uh, hospital in Knoxville.

What are the factors behind that idea? And would that be challenged if, as Brett said, we ended up in a scenario where, while it might not be our base case, but the Fed were forced into action at the end of this month?

Yeah, so, I mean, I guess why I didn't want to chase, I just think, you know, that dollar rally post the FOMC, and it kind of predated the FOMC too, but particularly post the FOMC, that was a pretty decent rally.

We look at positioning indicators.

We saw a pretty big positioning build.

The dollar looks more or less in line with rates now.

So, you know, chasing it from here would have required, I guess, a bit more... a bit more interest, I guess, in other large currencies doing worse than they already have.

And, you know, Euro's low, Yen's low, Canadian dollar's low.

In your conversations with clients, are these fiscal stories talks about the U.S. spending? Is it coming up all that much with regards to the dollar view or is it taking a bit of a backseat at the moment to other themes such as AI and the Fed and geopolitics, of course?

Tim, how did you get involved and where did your desire to create this new choral work come from?

Well, I actually used to sing in Shalloway back when it was known as the Newfoundland Info Youth Choir a long time ago.

I won't say how long.

And I have great, great love and respect for the organization.

And I mean, Kelly came to me and asked me if I would do if they could commission me to do this piece.

And I had I did one before for Shalloway and I had a ball doing it.

I mean, I it's not really what I do.

Really? Okay.

I know that's something you're seeing as well, right? Yeah.

Yeah, look, I think we've had 10 or 15 years of consolidation in the market.

So you've seen firms like Market and Thomson and Reuters and FactSet, all those big firms, S&P have been acquiring assets and good on them for realizing that there's a lot of value in owning data.

With that consolidation, I think has come...

the desire for customers to see more competition.

And again, I think big firms find it hard to adjust or take advantage of new things.

And maybe they want to be fast followers.

So we
