Around 33 centuries ago, one of the most famous men in history hiked up a mountain probably now known as Jabal al Lawz in today's northwestern Saudi Arabia . There Moses met with God. God Himself carved commandments into stone tablets for Moses to share with His people, the Israelites. These commandments eventually became a major part of the legal foundation for western civilization.
One of these commandments preserved in the book of Exodus is “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.” While most obviously commanding us not to lie, I believe this commandment goes well beyond lying. It probably also includes presenting true information in such a way that it will likely mislead when interpreted. A modern word that comes to mind along these lines is “nuancing”.
Sadly the financial markets are full of this kind of thing. Charts, with their wealth of information, are one of the easiest ways to intentionally mislead others. Depending on the analyst's selection of data to use, time period to cover, axis type of chart (linear or logarithmic), and vertical axis span, the obvious interpretation of a chart can vary radically. It is not hard to present true information yet know it will be misinterpreted.
