  • The USA Hits the BRICs [View article]
    Thunderlight:

    The data is not misleading, and there is no tone to the article, and as my previous comment stated, no opinion was intended or offered.

    There was no suggestion that the US market it doing well.

    The data is straight forward. So far this year, US stocks and BRIC stocks have had the particular performance cited.

    Would the data be less "misleading" if it showed a different period where BRIC massively outperformed the US? Or, would it be less "misleading" if yet a different period were shown where the US massively outperformed?

    You can find all of those examples. Just pick your time period.

    The chart (not article) responded to a 2008 YTD question and it provides the correct answer.

    If ease of data access were the basis for excluding material from Seeking Alpha, then a large portion of the articles would be excluded. It's even easier for the reader when it's posted and they don't have to go get it.

    We will continue to post pure data charts on our blog, and Seeking Alpha may continue to select some for publication. My "opinion" and "forward" view is that you should stop reading them so you don't need to be so troubled by them.
