Right after a supposedly low inflation December. It’s hard to trust the numbers with all the revisals. -0.1 to +0.1 after x
I got a ton of “below 20-50 day EMA” alerts this morning. https://finviz.com/map.ashx?t=sec_all https://finviz.com/map.ashx?t=sec_all
- kccoder 3y agoAdjusting the reported inflation rate +/- 0.1% from ~3.0%, representing a ~3% change in the rate, 30 days after initial reporting doesn't seem particularly suspect or unusual or suggest that the initial numbers aren't to be trusted. 95%+ accuracy is pretty accurate.
- instagib 3y agoI’m talking about the monthly numbers mentioning December. Many have been revised +0.1% or -0.1% when they start at .1 to .5% excluding expected numbers. Yearly is something entirely different but it was expected to be +2.9% yet we saw 3.1% over 12 months. January was expected +0.2% and saw +0.3%
