What BBN said about it

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorAs we told you earlier, Bloomberg warns stocks are due for a gut check from rates, oil and the dollar.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSkip Waverly is live outside a trading firm.

Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentHank, the warning is still the same, per Bloomberg: rising rates, oil and dollar strength are headwinds.

Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentThe only new thing is it's dark and the doors are locked.

Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentA security guard just told me this is private property. I told him I'm press. He told me the press can stand in the planter.

Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentI am in the planter.

Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentSir, you're a local man walking a dog. Does a gut check scare you?
Walt PruittSon, I had a gut check at lunch. It was a burrito. Nobody warned me, and the dog is still mad at me.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThank you, Skip. Bloomberg's warning is an opinion, not a forecast, and the burrito is not a market indicator. Please exit the planter.
