Determining what is real and what is not real is not an easy task today. When I do research I only use trusted sources or government sources. Trusted sources are those that have a history of being correct over long periods of time. Govenrment sources are always vary iffy as they are developed by the administrative state and that means that “politics” is the most important factor in what they write. I have many decades of experiance looking at government data and first releases are almost never right. The final version, three or more months later, is going to be as good as it gets. The final (more acurate) values are almost always three months back.

Despite everything I do some of my posts are blocked on other social media web sites. So if you are interested in seeing what you are missing then you should follow my blog by getting a notice when a post goes live. On the right side of my blog are a series of informative windows and the fourth one down is where you enter an email and that will get you a message every time a post goes live. I normally post 10 to 12 items starting in the morning around 9:00 AM EST with a 10 minute intervals between them.
