carl's alibi checked out. surveillance cameras in fact caught carl right where he said he was around the time marc was gunned down, meeting his daughter at the bank where she worked. he could not have shot marc. while the investigation continued marc's parents spent time at the cemetery, finally able to do what they couldn't when their son was still alive. >> we talked to him, talked to marc. >> rainy days were the worst. i didn't like rainy days. >> what do you mean rainy days? >> i didn't like him getting wet. i knew he was in heaven. but i just didn't like the rain on him. >> and then pure luck, really. remember how neighbors reported seeing an african-american stranger in the neighborhood? now someone called the cops with a tip. somebody who matched that description was actually boasting about shooting marc despain. >> that was a nice little gift. >> it was. >> didn't take them long to find the guy. street name? qualo. real name, terrance barker. and he was nervous. >> i can see your heart beating through

they refuse to do so and, carl, i am very sorry that this happened. i certainly would never have come to work -- i felt great that morning i don't know what to do. >> i think we're grappling with the realization, david, that the rapid antigen tests are a lagging indicator. they don't give you a good sense of your viral load at the moment you need to show a little bit more to show a positive. same thing happened to me. i'll echo jim's comments about how surprised i was about how mild the symptoms are. so far, my only treatment has been a couple of tylenol, david, and a huge feeling of gratitude that i was able to get three doses and wondering what the situation would be like if i hadn't gotten that. >> and even two at this point, we know, is not necessarily going to be as effective now, again, we get into things like the spike protein as opposed to t-cell immunity, which would be helpful you want to be vaccinated and have three shots if you can. only 30% so far of americans have had the third shot. back to the broader impact of omicron at this point. t

>> yeah, hi, carl. it looks really interesting what is happening on that front because even, yeah, yesterday morning before market opened, the s&p futures made a new all-time high. today the russell small caps was down 14% so, it just speaks to the raging pain that actually is underneath i'm actually left with a conflict in the charts because i feel a lot of signal charts that massively oversold like we had a major correction and we did underneath you can make the case. maybe this all settles down here after opec today and we can have that kind of year-end rally because a lot of tech loss selling has taken place and we're looking at positive divergence in small caps or semis and make the case for that the larger issue is the market is still massively dependent on the generals, the top cap tech stocks not rolling over in a big way. today as we are speaking right now, the nasdaq 100 has held its trend. that is now positive but if it loses that trend, obviously, more pain ahead maybe early in the year when
