Abstract: In a 2009 news article entitled ÒHow Did Economists Get It So Wrong?,Ó Paul Krugman wrote, ÒThe economics profession went astray because economists, as a group, mistook beauty, clad in impressive- looking mathematics, for truth.Ó In this article, David Orrell asks if the same could be said of forecasters.
