It's ironic that this morning, even as Marketwatch was reporting a disastrous jobs report, they had three reporters cheer-leading higher stock prices and a stronger economy. So which is it, Marketwatch? Is the economy weak, as jobs and other economic data indicate, or are your cheer-leading reporters correct in prophesying a stronger economy ahead? All these were screen captures from the same web page on the same day, April 3, 2015.
Marketwatch headlines:
For the sake of Rex and other false prophets in the financial markets, let me counsel you this way: Predicting the future is for prophets, not profits!
Marketwatch, your cred... is dead!
