Now this is what I call a perfect apple-pear statistic. (vbg)

Comparing one months highs with another month lows will give you at best an impression about the volatility during these months, but no hint of an “incredible downward pressure”.

If these statistics would make any sense then why not try a few others like:

Compare the highest volume day of January to the lowest in February and watch an "incedible downward pressure on volume".

Compare the oldest American to the youngest and draw the conclusion that there is "big evidence" that the oldest American is older than the youngest.


It’s sometime really funny how statistics are handled in the so called financial expert researches. I can give a lot of other examples in the recent past but the best thing you can do is:
Think about them and throw them where they belong: To the waste basket!
