理解经济数据发布中的“耳语数字”

由原文自动翻译 · 阅读原文 (English)

我们都关注CPI或NFP的头条数据,这是有充分理由的——因为它们在财经新闻中被大肆宣传。但精明的交易员通常知道“耳语数字”可能同样,甚至更具影响力。这不是官方预测;它是在发布前在市场参与者中流传的非官方、通常是轶事性的共识。如果官方数字符合共识,但与耳语数字相去甚远,你仍然会看到剧烈反应。这就像高尔夫球手打出标准杆,而看台上的每个人都期待小鸟球一样。

可以把它看作是市场定价不仅仅是经济学家的预测。如果你办公室里的每个人都认为NFP将是20万,但官方预测是18万,那么19万的公布值,虽然超过了官方预测,但实际上可能会令人失望。这就是为什么你会看到货币走势与看似积极的头条新闻“背道而驰”。这也是为什么观察市场反应通常比孤立地阅读数据点更有启发性,特别是当你考虑到算法处理官方数据的速度与更细致的“耳语”之间的差异时。

That's a great point about whisper numbers. Do you find certain economic releases have more pronounced whisper numbers than others, or is it fairly consistent across the board?

This is a great point. It's often the divergence from the whisper number, not just the official consensus, that triggers the biggest moves. How do you typically gauge these whisper numbers; is it more through specific news outlets, or by observing pre-market price action?

This is a great point. I've often seen markets react more strongly to how a number deviates from the whisper than from the official consensus, especially for big movers like NFP. How do you typically gauge the whisper number, or do you find it's more about sensing the market's underlying sentiment?
