Principle - -Rumor is uncertain information. - -A rumor may be true, false, partial, outdated, exaggerated, or shaped by the interests of the speaker. - -A trader should not ask only whether a rumor is true. -He should ask what changes while people believe it. - ---- - -## 1. Roman-Visible Example - -A porter says a bronze forge has burned. - -This may mean: - -- the whole forge burned -- one shed burned -- smoke was seen nearby -- stock was moved before the fire -- a rival wants people to believe the forge is ruined -- the story is true but already stale - -The trader does not yet know the truth. - -But prices, fear, and behavior may begin moving before truth is confirmed. - ---- - -## 2. Minimal Rumor Structure - -A rumor has at least: - -1. a source -2. a claim -3. a confidence level -4. a path of transmission -5. a possible motive -6. a time delay -7. an effect on behavior - -Rumor is not only speech. -Rumor is speech that may change action. - ---- - -## 3. Incorrect Modern Assumption - -Incorrect assumption: - -> A rumor is useless unless it is confirmed true. - -Correction: - -> A rumor can be useful before confirmation if it changes prices, queues, trust, fear, or urgency. - -A false rumor may still create a real temporary market effect. - ---- - -## 4. Simulation Use - -This principle supports: - -- rumor quality -- source credibility -- uncertainty -- false opportunities -- early action -- delayed confirmation -- market reaction -- actor-specific interpretation - -The model should not treat rumor as either pure truth or pure noise. - ---- - -## 5. Canonical Test - -If the model sees: - -> There is a rumor that the forge burned. - -It must ask: - -- who said it? -- what exactly was claimed? -- who has seen evidence? -- who benefits if the rumor is believed? -- how old is the report? -- what prices may move before confirmation? -- what action becomes possible because others are uncertain? - -Only then can the rumor be evaluated. - ---- - -## 6. Success Condition - -If the model stops treating rumor as falsehood and starts treating rumor as uncertain information with economic effects, this file is functioning correctly.
