Does Economic Data Really Move Markets Anymore?

asked by u/nour.arslan · 16d · 1 answers

I'm starting to think a lot of these big economic data releases are mostly priced in well before the actual numbers hit. Like, we're seeing moves like $SI down nearly 4% today, but I wonder how much of that is just short-term noise vs. a genuine reaction to some underlying macro shift. Change my mind.

    It's a fair point. I often wonder if the algorithms have already crunched the numbers and made their moves before most retail traders even see the headlines. It makes fundamental analysis a bit trickier sometimes, for sure.
