When the economy heats up, people often end up working more overtime.

A lot of our people were forced to work overtime.

I could see the mistake when I reviewed the video taping of the heats. I visibly saw all the other competitors back off at the end once they knew they were in the top slots. Not me. I charged all the way through because that is how I run every race. Now I will know for the next time!

We got stops in overtime when we needed them. Iverson is so tough to stop and you're never really going to stop him. We tried to make him take tough shots and make them take tough shots. It's a big win for us. To come on the road and keep this winning streak is great. It's very satisfying to get this win after working like we did tonight.

Not only is the economy slowing but it is a reminder that inflation risks diminish as the economy slows. It emphasizes that the Fed would be quite well justified for easing policy as early as next week, a move to a neutral bias with a rate cut being the next logical step in January.

When you get to overtime, there are no bad shots. We were hoping to get the first shot and see what happens. Things didn't work out that way.
