Alright, this one mystifies me. I have been a believer in this stock for some time. They have the best buyback. Take a look. They’ve shrunk the float by 50% just in the last few years. There’s nothing, I thought, at first, I thought it was tariffed parts that could be a problem, tariffed parts. But at this point, I just don’t see a lot of downside. Yeah, I mean, we just had this nice pick up, but I think this is where you can get back in. It has been a mystery because I’ve been recommending the stock for more than 10 years.
