Quotes of the Day

Be thoughtful as you take in the headlines, financial or otherwise:

Robert Mortorana, CFA on web-clutter:

It’s a necessary skill when confronted with the hype and sensationalism now masquerading as news: press releases that spin the facts, earnings reports that ignore basic arithmetic, and management explanations that test the boundaries of probability.

It is worse now that investment blogs have embraced the golden rule of tabloid journalism: simplify, then exaggerate. Pseudo news and pseudo analysis clutters the web, making it harder to stay well informed.

Ben Carlson, CFA, headline-interpreting:

Headline: [Democrats/Republicans/current or past president] Caused X% of Economic or Stock Market Growth

How to read it: Presidents or political parties don’t personally control economies or stock markets made up of millions of participants and trillions of dollars all wrapped up within a complex adaptive system. These things don’t come with levers that you can pull to make them rise or fall.
