Eric Wiegand Quotations

We continue to be long-term believers in the productivity enhancing benefits that technology brings to corporations and consumers and we've seen a tremendous adoption of technology over the last few years.

It's a very loud distraction for the markets.

In the first half of the year, investors really needed to be somewhat divorced from reality. It was not dissimilar to the first half of 2000, where investors ignored valuations. Now, investors have shifted their focus towards the latter half of the year and the idea that we've paid our price; that we'll benefit from monetary and fiscal stimuli working their way into the system. And I think they're right.

All told, we think that this is a great franchise and its valuation continues to be very compelling for investors.
