The reason why sentiment drives the prices and not news is because news triggers the sentiment that's already there. If there is no sentiment there is no price increase even if the news is big; and we have seen this in situations like Cloakcoin where the new site didn't help. Where as, a mere article or web update can drive a coin like EOS up- everyone knows of EOS being an Ethereum killer but sometimes we need to be reminded.

Indeed, the decision to cancel segwit2x did not happen in a bubble, it too was driven by outside influences.
Personally I was expecting a correction after segwit as coins would go back from private wallets towards exchanges, supply would increase and btc would be sold to rebuy alts that were sold in the hope of free coins. So it happened a few days early...
Apparently you did not read my blog link on Sentiment being a Quantum Event.
At this point, to each its own pathway.
This is pretty much what I agree with. Glad someone brought this up.
