Engagement
A typical post picks up 303 interactions against 766K followers, an engagement rate of 0.04%. Measured over 28 original posts, its engagement rate beats 54% of 3,862 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 105K times each, and 0.289% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 13.7% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.4 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 73% of days. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Friday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 28 posts sampled, 57% carry an image or video, 7% are part of a thread and 29% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 8.8K interactions, about 29x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Jim Bianco's engagement rate beats 54% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,862 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 8 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 23% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 13:00 UTC, and Friday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Gavin Baker: Anthropic Believes They Could Be the ONLY Company Left in the World “I would certainly discourage Dario from saying that ever again to anyone.” @GavinSBaker: “Internally, Anthropic is very confident. I have been told by multiple people I trust that Dario has said that Anthropic might be the only private company in the world at some point. Think about that. In this vision, an Anthropic maximalist vision, there's Anthropic, and then there are governments, and that's it. So there's a lot of confidence. I'm sure they have more advanced checkpoints than Fable up their sleeve. They've executed really, really well. I would probably take the under on them being the only private company in the world. Yeah, I think it's gonna be a long time before they land a rocket.” @Jason: “Or they deliver your lunch. I don't know. There might be other businesses in the world. Zipline might want to bring you a burrito. Uber might want to take you somewhere. Waymo might want to drive you home. But sure, Dario.” @DavidSacks: “I might interpret that as a negative signal because it's so hubristic. This is getting into SBF land a little bit.” Gavin: “I would certainly discourage Dario from saying that ever again to anyone.”

Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh signaled the central bank may not be done fighting inflation, saying financing conditions didn't look restrictive to him and that better price readings recently hadn't convinced him the trend was improving. "I would be hard pressed to describe broad financial conditions as restrictive." "We must be confident that underlying inflation is moving to our objective, clearly and at sufficient speed. Otherwise, we have work to do." "And while this summer's PCE and CPI readings were better than expected, they do not tell me that underlying trends have meaningfully improved."

TRUMP: FED RATE DECISION ISN’T JUST UP TO WARSH Asked whether Fed Chair Kevin Warsh should avoid raising interest rates before the election, Trump said: “It’s up to him a little bit, but not completely. He’s got a board that’s very political. It’s not totally up to him. It’s up to a board. I think he’s great. I won’t be criticizing him.”

Big tech giants booked a more than $160bn windfall last quarter from investments in other AI companies, flattering their earnings and raising concerns that paper gains are overstating the strength of the AI boom. https://t.co/xFpqr11p3E https://t.co/SJVWdpfIXO

The $SPX is at a new all-time high. In the last 100 years, there's never been a recession in the month that the $SPX is at a new all-time high. This signals the economy is fine, meaning inflation and higher rates should be the concern. https://t.co/Ke9DpKRA19

- What is Jim Bianco's engagement rate on X?
- Jim Bianco (@biancoresearch) has an engagement rate of 0.04%, based on the median interactions across 28 original posts from the last 30 days against 765,705 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.04%, Jim Bianco sits above the 25th percentile of the 37,350 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @biancoresearch have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 54% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,862 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @biancoresearch post?
- Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Friday is its busiest day, at roughly 3.4 posts per day across the measured window.
