BS Summary: This article contains 8 faulty reasoning types, including Biased Writer Voice, Framing Effect, and Recency Bias, with Ambiguity (Equivocation) as the most egregious example at 58.8% saturation with 50 hits. Analysis detected 228 faulty-reasoning hits from 85 analyzed words, generating a BS Score of 85.5% and a BS Rank of 91% (1,775 of 18,913 articles). This article is worse (more manipulative) than 90.60% of the article peer group.
Tl;dr: Amid a quiet macro week, investors are bracing for the micro (mega-cap earnings) and after OpEx unclenched Gamma, markets were freer to move today (Nasdaq higher, rest lower).
Bitcoin bounced alongside big-tech and bond yields jumped despite oil prices well off their highs chopping around unch, (fuel products higher).
The dollar and gold went nowhere.
In a word, today was 'Messy'... sorry we couldn't resist.
