told
you
at
the

are
hard

by
no

he's
i
think
in
general
that's
correct
and
it
was
but
it's
also
sort
of
in
line
with
what
i
was
trying
to
say
where
i
think
we
are
the
market
is
taking
credit
for
this
reacceleration
story
in
the
first
quarter
and

i
think
we
can
identify
those
things
everyone
talking
about
a
hundred
and
fifty
billion
dollars
more
in
tax
refunds
OK
it's
point
six
percent
of
annual
personal
disposable
income
that's
what
we're
getting
excited
about
and
it
probably
just
kind
of
gets
spent
out
and
and
all

the
rest
so
i
i
think
it's
not
the
biggest
swing
factor
so
i
don't
like
to
sort
of
out
think
the
markets
assessment
of
things
and
i
am
encouraged
by
the
fact
that
cyclical
stocks
are
doing
well
it
could
be
the
upper
part
of
the
K
is
going
to
carry
us
and
capex
is
still
you
know

kind
of
at
this
point
funded
and
is
going
to
come
through

and
earnings
you
know
i
mean
look
the
S
and
P
five
hundred
has
been
able
to
turn
slow
growth
into
earnings
leverage
over
time
but
i
do
think
you
shouldn't
be
hoping
for
the
circumstances
under
which
gets
it
more
aggressive
on
the
on
the
easing
side
