I got that partially right. There is without question the labor market is weakening and I'm going to get into that. I'm going to talk a lot about it. The unemployment rate though, has not gotten to that level. It went from 4% to 4.3%. But again, we don't have September, October and we don't know what November December numbers will be. But I don't think we're going to get to the 4.7. (01:34–01:42)
