Does Macro Data Truly Trump Price Action in This Market?
I've been watching the macro calendar closely, especially with the recent $SSE swings — seeing it down almost 20% today at 0.1567 from its highs around 0.1893, it just feels like the market's initial reaction to data often gets completely faded by the end of the day. Are we overestimating the immediate impact of CPI or NFP reports when price action seems to tell a clearer story in real-time? Convince me otherwise.

That's a great question, and I've felt the same frustration. While macro data definitely sets the longer-term trend and shapes investor sentiment, the intraday price action often feels driven more by liquidity and technical levels. It's almost like the market needs time to properly digest the macro implications.
