1/ CLARIFICATIONS:
1. I'm an analyst (see bio). I don't "guess", "think", "feel". Either I know or I don't. My verbs are very precise: "suggests" mean "there is a relevant associated probability that __"
1. When I write "let's see how this unravels" it means I REALLY don't...

2/ ... know what will happen. To be clear: it means there is NOTHING solid, data-wise, to inform me to offer a "suggestion" in one way or the other. Don't waste your time replying to my "let's see how it unravels".
