Financial News: Mostly Noise, Very Few Signals

Today I got annoyed, at something that I shouldn’t have really. I spotted an article about today’s Flash Crash or whatever that is. As I write, I see that many European stock markets closed down between 2% and 3%. The S&P500 and NASDAQ indices are over 1.5% points in the red. Is this a flash crash? I don’t know and I don’t really care. As investors and traders we spend our days surrounded by noise. Financial information in the digital age has become little more than a form of entertainment. As investors, we have only our discipline to stand by us.

The promise is big. The question is - where does the reality stays? We've just seen some last year financial data and yet probably more Facebook fundamental data should surface.
