Savannah Guthrie brought a very special guest to watch her ring the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange with Hoda Kotb.five years of co-anchoring TODAYSavannah's daughter Vale, 8, tagged along for the special moment and watched as her mom joined a long list of others who have rung the bell, including TODAY's Carson Daly.As it turns out, Vale also taught her mom and Hoda a thing or two about the stock market.
"Vale explained the stock market to me and Savannah, and it was amazing. Will you explain it to them?" Hoda said.Vale then calmly broke it down, saying,"Basically, when companies get big enough they sell parts of their companies to the public and at the Stock Exchange you sell and buy those parts of the company.""Why hasn't anyone told me that all these years?" an impressed Savannah joked.Jenna was curious to know where Vale learned this little tidbit.
Hoda was pretty impressed at Vale's knowledge and applauded her for breaking things down in easy-to-understand terms. "This is the clearest anyone's ever explained the stock market that I've ever heard before, so Vale nailed it," she said.After the interview ended, Jenna couldn’t help but say, “Vale is a smart kid!”“I had the same thought: That's Mike Feldman saying, 'Here's how the stock market works,'" he said.
Savannah shared several photos of Vale's experience at the New York Stock Exchange on her Instagram page, including one of the 8-year-old pretending to answer a call.
We already know about Jenna. But, do Hoda and Savanah wear panties?
Why not? The stock market has tanked so many times already this year.
