"...I would suggest there are all sorts of ways to build a picture that is sensible if you are willing to do the work, or find someone who has." Most macro economic statistics are put out by one or another arm of govmnt. Should I believe someone else's interpretation of them? "...the true rule requires that all data be discounted, no matter the source..." That is what I said. You seemed to be suggesting that all govmnt produced data should automatically be discounted to zero. Doing so would leave you with no stats at all, and no basis for any conclusion or investing decision.
