[10:39] I don't think we're going to get that pronounced of a draw down or average draw down this year because you do have uh a level of fiscal stimulus coming through in the form of tax returns jumping 40 50% uh you know 50 some odd billion dollars going in consumer's pockets and you are in an easing cycle

[0:03] Now everyone wants it at $39. And I think it's going to make the taxpayer a tremendous amount of money over the next five years.

The prediction claimed Intel would make taxpayers 'a tremendous amount of money' over five years, which is a bullish claim requiring substantial gains; while the period high of $54.60 represents a 38.1% gain from the $39.54 prediction price (exceeding any reasonable interpretation of 'tremendous'), the prediction's vague qualitative language ('tremendous amount') cannot be objectively verified against specific numerical targets, but the 38.1% peak gain and 11.3% target date close both support a bullish outcome that aligns with the prediction's direction and spirit.

[10:45] I think we've got to go at least two. And I think that's all we're going to get. Uh we should probably do 75 to 100 basis points.

The Fed cut rates three times in 2025 (September, November, December), each by 25 basis points, totaling 75 basis points. This satisfies the prediction's minimum of 'at least two cuts' (50 bps) and lands squarely within the stated optimal range of 75–100 bps.

[25:43] One of the names that we have around 78 bucks is Comtock Resources. Uh Jerry Jones owns the majority of the stock, 70 plus% of the stock. We're co-investors with him. Somewhere around $8 a share. It went up to $30 a share. It's now at $17. We're in the market buying more. it's going to 50 over the next two to three years.

[31:38] our base case is that we are in the second leg of a durable bull market that probably goes into the early 2030s. So any of these three, five, eight, I I I I I think we're our pullbacks this year are going to be contained to 3 to 8% if any.

[15:11] I think on that basis and they've they've anticipated 30 to 70 basis points reduction in the 10-year yield once that's implemented that should be implemented sometime late this summer. uh that would bring the 10-year yield down to 350, 370

The prediction claimed the 10-year yield would decline to 3.50%-3.70% (a 59-70 basis point drop from 4.29%), and the period low of 3.99% on 2025-09-17 represents a 30 basis point decline, falling short of the claimed 3.50%-3.70% target range.

[34:51] No, I I look I think we'll push higher here into earnings season probably the next few weeks and then I think we got to consolidate some gains maybe uh you know August, September, October, grind sideways, maybe a little natural pullbacks etc and probably finish the year a little little stronger.

The prediction claimed the S&P 500 would 'push higher through earnings season' (achieved with period high of $6945.77, up 11.5% from prediction price of $6227.42), then 'consolidate gains through August-October' (the index did consolidate and grind sideways during this period), and 'finish the year stronger' (closed at $6845.5 on 12/31, up 9.9% from prediction date), so all three specific claims were validated by the price action.
