A sharp adjustment north to 50 or 52 is improbable, however, considering that the historical absolute average and median changes from the preliminary to the final are 1 and 0.7, signaling an elevated likelihood of a range between 47.2 and 49.2. The \u201cNos\u201d at those upper thresholds (50, 52) appear relatively attractive and undervalued in my opinion at $0.70 and $0.89. Under at 46 meanwhile, there\u2019s an 87% chance of the result not falling to that level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"810\" height=\"449\"
