Readers have expressed mixed opinions about The Economist’s editorial stance and predictions.
I’d love to know if ‘the pink’ has the same problem because I used to find the editorial very good. As a non-investor, left leaning voter, it interested me that I found much to agree with in ‘the financial times’ while still finding much to disagree with in ‘the times’ and ‘the daily telegraph’ and ‘the spectator’ -as if money was more neutrally stanced on left-vs-right.
Others have noted the impact of public predictions on outcomes.
The tricky thing about predictions made by public entity or persona is that, the fact that they are making public predictions creates a major influence on the outcome itself. People react to predictions made by them.
