### Comment:
Yeah but the Fed being more uncertain about whether or not they'll even hike will hurt guidance. There's just a general uncertainty of how 2019 will play out. Can't imagine any of their investment sectors did great the past quarter either with the state of the market.  
  
 We'll have to see though, I'm on your side about how the 'real economy' is looking. Consumer credit numbers have shown massive growth the past two months so they'll probably do fine on earnings.

### REPLY:
a lot of them have trade houses so volatility works in their favor as well, i'm actually very interested in how things go, considering an XLF strangle just to see what happens
