"Mercurial" seems to have a lot of meanings some of which could contradict each other. What does it mean in the newspaper article below?
Mr. Assange, a mercurial figure, has acknowledged that the release of the documents had been timed to induce maximum harm to the prospects of Hillary Clinton. _________________ Hiromichi |

I'd guess "unpredictable" is the meaning. (I had to look it up ) |
