Cheeky's number brought down the average consensus I am not a statistician, but I think a statistically valid consensus number would require that all non-serious predictions that are wildly off from the mean should be thrown out in calculating the consensus. Maybe the rule of thumb is anybody "predicting" a move of more than ten percent on the Naz in one day is not included in the consensus. Just a suggestion for the master organizer. MD
