TRENDS, SENTIMENT & INVESTIGATION
""I see the board. I do not move the pieces.""
Barbara Gordon does not leave the chair. She watches the room before the room knows it is being watched: what just entered the field of view, what quietly left it, who is paying to be seen and who arrived on their own. She keeps the mood of the market against lines she drew before she looked, so that a reading from March and a reading from August can sit side by side and mean something. And she reads the day's news the way an investigator reads a file — sources named, nothing taken on trust. She will tell you the board has changed. She will never tell you where to put your hand.
Reports what moved and what was said. Never says what to do about it.
