RE:HEADLINES IN 2 WEEKS

[DZtrader]

Does it dawn on you that headlines tend to sensationalize underlying content, usually for monetary gain. Kind of like when you greatly exaggerate most anything you say. I'll share a calculation with you to further illustrate. If the odds of a rate hikes were presumed to be (say) 1 percent, it then moved to 2 percent (don't hurt yourself here) that would be a whopping 100 percent increase in odds. Whoa, sounds like a monumental increase doesn't it, but when you stop to think ( I know I know you never stop to think, sorry) and put things into prospective it's really negligible, some would even say quite misleading. Just like what you just tried to achieve in posting that caption. Trying to lend credibility to yourself. Let me sum this up, as noted in a prior post, claiming to forecast a future event that already has a high probability doesn't set the bar very high, sorry. I think the issue fellow posters have is not wether we see a hotter print or not and you start pounding your chest like the idiot you are, it's that you proclaim that it to be an orchestrated event conspired to make others rich while striking yet another blow to you and your portfolio. Heck, anyone can make a claim of another hot CPI print especially after getting two in a row with oil having spiked during the period in question. I told you the past one was going to be ok in that the setup going into it was good, while you were screaming bloodbath deep in the red puke your coffee out blah blah blah. We all know how you had egg on your face as you say, yet again. Doesn't make me a genius in the least, was just a hunch but read the setup going in.

In your case the best advice I can give you is this:  better to keep your mouth shut and " thought" a fool, then to open it and remove all doubt!
