It is interesting running back over this thread, and similar threads, how so many market commentators make so many prognostications, VALID ONLY FOR 4-6 HOURS at most. Go to the website later on that morning and it is all turnabout.

This came to mind this morning, when at about half past midnight, 12:30 am, I noticed that the AFR was tipping a fall in the market today of 1% which I posted in this or a similar thread.

By 8am this morning they had reversed their opinion. This is ok, as I realise fundamentals particular in commodities and bonds change quite quickly. My concern is that large funds seem to follow the advice given, even if it changes for no good reason, if the volumes within the first 30 minutes of trading are anything to go by.

And they do seem to follow the most recent "advice" , at least on the opening bell.

Just something I noticed.

I don't use funds nor follow the advice of advisers.

Don't do your own research.
