Philly Fed #

VOLUME · Oct 17, 2002

There are estimates all over (anywhere from -4.0 to +2.5). Does anyone know what # people are using?

I have no idea. But once again the Philly Fed report proves to be just about the most consistent economic report in turning the market into a ping pong tournament. I'm sure the locals love the fact that at 12:00 they have virtual free reign.

negative - true
and the market *wants* to go higher... at least there's no panic selling. Looks like MSFT report is what everybody are waiting for.
