ARGH !!!! Hav'in a bad day, just one of those short term moods, OR just about right?

The subject here reads like Goldilocks test results. The overall thought here is related to the MFO junk bond link in PART 2.

PART 1: Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Goldilocks. She went for a walk in the forest. Pretty soon, she came upon a house. She knocked and, when no one answered, she walked right in.
At the table in the kitchen, there were three bowls of porridge. Goldilocks was hungry. She tasted the porridge from the first bowl.
"This porridge is too hot!" she exclaimed.
So, she tasted the porridge from the second bowl.
"This porridge is too cold," she said
So, she tasted the last bowl of porridge.
"Ahhh, this porridge is just right," she said happily and she ate it all up.

How can we trust Goldilock's assessment of hot, cold and just right? What is the baseline, how does she compare with a peer group of porridge temperature testers?

PART 2: Now. A recent link here (not directed at you @Ted , but the article author)

--- relative to the article:
.....would be nice if these data folks related the money values relative to 1992 or whatever time frame they choose to a "percentage" of total values involved; as to have a reference point for now.

What is this $4.4 billion withdrawal in terms of total monies in the HY sector? And how does this relate to 1992 values?

Oh, well; reader beware, eh?

GOSH, couldn't resist: All data believed accurate.

---U.S. high yield bonds outstanding value, July, 2017
$1.5 Trillion

So, HY outflows at $4.4 billion were .29% of total value, yes? Is this going to blow up the HY bond area and take equities with it.......???


PART 3: As to the .29% sell off/withdrawals in the HY sector; this could be similar to my telling the lady down the street who was born in 1925, that the St.Gaudens,1925-D, $20 gold piece presented to her on her birth day, by an uncle, recently declined in value by .29%; but that she should not be too concerned, as the worth of the coin was still acceptable.

Summary: I'm just asking for a bit of proper reporting, i.e.; junk bond outflows.
End of whine !!!

Thank you.
