Default Re: Web Bot Predictions for 2008 / 2009

Personally, I think the web bot adds to the fear it measures, although they say they've tried to avoid contributing to it. Still, if Clif High's opinion (through his computer program) is that it's gonna get a lot worse, how do you react to that emotionally? He then measures your response to his own suggestion.
Maybe - although Clif seems pretty tuned in to the issues with the system. Don't forget they also have 9/11 as a past model to use, thus making phuture prediction even more accurate.

I thought an interesting point was made when they said that with enough money and resources - it may be possible to dupe the web-bots into fixed results... ie: by creating sufficient 'chatter' in one area or another.
