Bailout backfire

smoro...@hotmail.com (Smoron) — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 17:02:34 UT

It is possible that the 700 billion dollar bailout may backfire. The
banks will have to sell their bad derivatives at less than cost, thus
incurring a loss. Such losses may put the banks in bankruptcy.
They can carry such derivatives on their books at full value until
there have been sufficient sales to establish a new and lower value.

Raising Taxes economic effects on USA in particular..

steviek2...@gmail.com (steviekm3) — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 18:26:08 UT

Since the USA is such a large part of the world's economy does raising
taxes have more of an effect in the USA than in other countries.
Meaning that if you raise taxes in the USA it effects many,many other
countries in the world that sell goods and services to the USA and
thereby there is a rebound effect on the USA.

Re: MACRO QUERY:Cost-Push + Demand-Pull inflation and "elasticity"-- does it apply ?

orangata...@googlemail.com — Sat, 20 Sep 2008 15:47:20 UT

cost-push inflation is nonsense. inflation is a monetary phenomenon.
The equation of exchange is
mv =pq
where m=amount of money in circulation, v = velocity of money, p =
price level q = quantity
see - [link]
so,if the price of something like oil increases and the amount of

MACRO QUERY:Cost-Push + Demand-Pull inflation and "elasticity"-- does it apply ?

some...@somewhere.com — Sat, 20 Sep 2008 08:41:22 UT

Hi,
I am trying to explain Cost-Push inflation .Can the concept of
elasticity be used in Macroeconomics ?
If so , how is elasticity relevant in demand-pull and cost-pull
inflation ?
So far I have avoided using the term (I think it only pertains to
Microeconomics ) and instead have talked about the multiplier effect

composed disturbance

friendly2...@gmail.com (miloud) — Thu, 12 Jun 2008 04:43:42 UT

dear sirs
The disturbance is composed of two influences: Vit are random
variables assumed to be iid N(0, σ
v2) and independent of Uit, which are non-negative random variables
assumed to account for the cost of inefficiency in production. The
later are assumed to be independently distributed as truncations at

Need bubble simulation/model

probl...@gmail.de — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 14:45:06 UT

I'm looking for a simulation model: an algorithm or perhaps even
just some anlyses from which I can buld my own algorithm of a
economic bubble.
For eg. typical unsound pyramid schemes, like they had in
Albania, or the classical [in history] Dutch tulip bubble.
Or perhaps the current petro-bubble ?
I'm wondering what the major parameters are that determine it's

Looking for something

I'm looking for NYSE data from 1920-1930. I'd like the daily close,
volume, advances, declines, and volumes on those too. New highs and
new lows would also be helpful. Where do I find this sort of data?
