<<it's weird, "better than expected" has become the same as excellent>>

Isn't that the truth. I was building houses in the mid to late 70s and if new starts dropped below a million all us builders were ready to jump off a bridge. But now, if the "experts" predict 300,000 and it comes in at 310,000 (not that it did last report - it was more like 276,000), the market will jump 200 points on this unexpected "good news".
