    The most relevant data is the most recent data.

    I don’t care about 2022 data, because I’m no longer paid in 2022 dollars or paying 2022 prices.

      By that logic we should only read last months data and forget the rest of history, but in reality people have memories and incorporate previous experience in their sentiment.

        The most relevant data is the most recent data. You don’t have to “forget the rest is history”, but it is less relevant than the present.
