“This board” is always right and always wrong. Every possible conjecture about the direction of the stock market, interest rates, the direction of the price of gold and inflation has been made at some point in the last 3 months. Saying that “this board” has been wrong is probably a valid statement and is as valid as saying “this board” has been spot on. In fact it has been both. It simply depends on which contributor made the right (or lucky) call.
