“Just to clarify, are you holding me to a higher standard than Nouriel Roubini or Barry Ritholtz? ”
No. They are professionals, who use massive amounts of data, and undoubtedly create large spreadsheet and/or database models to perform complicated analyses and reach insightful conclusions. You don’t even open Excel.
Problem is – I hold you to the same standards as them, and other world-class analysts (not economists) that I know personally, and you don’t stack up. Not even on the same planet as stacking up.
Just because you read Robini doesn’t mean you are Robini.
I appreciate it when you post interesting articles, I really do. But when you spin them improperly, it is very bothersome and erodes your value to this forum.
And I agree with woodrow’s evaluation of your inappropriate use of the word “expected”.
