RE: Investors/speculators may not have notived these indices yet <G> I always thought speculators were those that got in and out trying to time things that are akin to reading tea leaves? <VBG> Here is a nice, short comment on the FIBER numbers, their revisions and why Greenspan and others might have to find something else to look at. suite101.com Note that he writes: "This one has always seen wild revisions to previous months readings, but the whole series? The previous December reading was 109.6, now it's 103.5? " Hard to place much faith in an index when it revises more than it changes month to month! Now FIBER seems just like more tea leaves in the cup.
