So the trick is to find a direction orthogonal to all economists, and thus find out what the economy really is going to do? Not a bad idea.

I guess the hardest part about it is not letting an economist read about this direction, and claim it as his own...

Sounds like we need an Economist in the Complex plane..

Hmm, an Imaginary Economist.. Sounds somehow apt?
