big-blue is a dangerous man, l will explain..
when we look at what BB is saying, it is 4 week old news that has since been responded to by Luis Gallego, we have also have numerous announcements opening up travel...
although it is old tosh to a lot of us and many of us have just chosen to filter him, what it does is inserts an Anchoring Bias if you are coming across the forum for the first time:
Why we tend to rely heavily upon the first piece of information we receive
https://thedecisionlab.com/biases/anchoring-bias/
we are also hard-wired to react to danger with the fight or flight response so his behaviour will play on many of our emotions ...
Filtering him is the only option, like a said before fighting him can entrench you in your position and beliefs which is just as dangerous as you lose your objectivity...
the compounded effect of his actions are unimaginable, they are designed to play on your fears and play on your mind, l agree there needs to be a short side of the story and this should be a place for an exchange of ideas, but what he does, l don't know, but l can only assume he is paid as nothing else makes sense...
@disrup
..these boards are a two-edge sword they can help you and they can hinder you, you have to know the difference and we are all fallible...
personally l find trading is like trading against your own biases and it is a personal thing, ultimately you are responsible to see what is being said and stick to your bias until it doesn't make sense anymore.. it only takes a brief weak moment to capitulate and that will make perfect sense at the time or it can be the agony of staying and questioning your own bias until you can see evidence that confirms it again...
footnote:
just to add l have never seen any figures or workings of BB's thinking and it is purely fear-based just like the other derampers...
