You are the one assuming that I use their view as some sort of indicator of what the economy is doing.

no, your grand point was that people on the street think the economy's doing bad (you wrote: "Ask the average person what they think the economy is doing"), therefore you and the people on CNBC and Alan Greenspan are correct and, i guess (ROFLMAO), "contrarian".

Sentiment is meaningless as an indicator simply because it always follows price and price has zero predictive value.

false conclusion from a false assumption.

So why would one make an assumption based on a trailing indicator of a measurement with zero predictive value?

false deduction from a false conclusion...from a false assumption.

yawn. is this what you call "debunking"? this is simple straw-man bluff and bait-and-switch.

I use the various indicators I have access to, none of which rely on sentiment

oh, i see. you use "various indicators" you have "access to". ahh, well, what ARE they? if you don't back up what you say with facts, then where is your argument?
