Hi, I'm wondering if anyone knows the details behind the forecasting of Economic indicators? If I'm not mistaken, all the banks make their forecasts and then Bloomberg. Reuters or someone takes the average of all the forecasts and that's the number we see in the economic calendar? That brings up another question: Why do all these banks create the forecasts and how? Thanks!

I'm not trying to convince anyone. I'm not in the "convincing" business.
