qqq3 a very good post but i disagree about this 2 only economic forecasts, market predictions. Economic can be forecasted if they are unbiased and market can be predicted towards a long cause period like say 6mths or 1 year. It is of cause can be debated but short term market like example intra-day is definitely not knowable but can be expected within ranges except at rare times where fluctuation occurs due to dramatic events ie. special cases
