No government is, however, powerful enough to abolish the gold stan- dard. Gold is the money of international trade and of the supernational economic community of mankind. It cannot be affected by measures of governments whose sovereignty is limited to definite countries. As long as a country is not economically self-sufficient in the strict sense of the term, as long as there are still some loopholes left in the walls by which national governments try to isolate their countries from the rest of the world, gold is still used as money. It does not matter that governments confiscate the gold coins and bullion they can seize and punish those holding gold as felons. The language of bilateral clearing agreements by means of which govern- ments are intent upon eliminating gold from international trade, avoids any reference to gold. But the turnovers performed on the ground of those agreements are calculated on gold prices. He who buys or sells on a foreign market calculates the advantages and disadvantages of such transactions in gold. In spite of the fact that a country has severed its local currency from any link with gold, its domestic structure of prices remains closely connected with gold and the gold prices of the world market. If a government wants to sever its domestic price structure from that of the world market, it must resort to other measures, such a prohibitive import and export duties and embar- goes. Nationalization of foreign trade, whether effected openly or directly by foreign exchange control, does not eliminate gold. The governments qua traders are trading by the use of gold as a medium of exchange.

A Foreign Currency Hedge Suppose an American electronics manufacturer has just delivered a large ship- ment of finished products to a customer in France. The French buyer has agreed to pay 1 million French francs in exactly 30 days. The manufacturer is worried that the French franc may be devalued relative to the American dollar during that interval. If the franc is devalued, the dollar value of the promised payment will fall and the American manufacturer will suffer losses. The Amer- ican manufacturer can shed this foreign currency exposure by going short in a franc forward contract or a franc future. The contract will specify a quantity of francs to be exchanged for dollars, at a fixed exchange rate, 30 days in the future. The contract locks in the terms at which the deferred franc revenue can be converted to dollars. No matter what happens to the franc-dollar ex- change rate, the American manufacturer now knows exactly how many dollars he will receive.

Non-performing loans and housing prices in Taiwan

We set out in this study to empirically examine the relationship between house prices and bank stability based upon an exploration of quarterly data obtained from Taiwanese banks covering the years 2006 to 2015. There are various divergent views on the ways in which persistent rises in house prices can influence ‘non-performing loans’ (NPLs); one view is that when house prices rise, this may raise collateral value, and as a result, NPLs will be reduced, whilst an alternative view is that increasing house prices may give rise to issues of moral hazard and adverse selection, thereby leading to an overall increase in NPLs and greater accumulation of risky assets within the banks. The results of the dynamic panel data analysis carried out in this study reveal the existence of a long-run, negative relationship between NPL ratios and the housing price index; however, no such negative relationship is discernible in the short run. Our findings offer policy implications for the emerging markets in the aftermath of the sub-prime mortgage crisis; according to our research results, policies aimed at reducing the duration of any housing market recession may improve bank stability.

Financial analysts are blessed with an enormous quantity of data on security prices and returns. For example, the University of Chicago’s Center for Research in Secu- rity Prices (CRSP) has developed a file of prices and dividends for each month since 1926 for every stock that has been listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Other files give data for stocks that are traded on the American Stock Exchange and the over-the-counter market, data for bonds, for options, and so on. But this is sup- posed to be one easy lesson. We, therefore, concentrate on a study by Ibbotson As- sociates that measures the historical performance of five portfolios of securities:

He was telling me this morning that, tired of letting his property lie dormant in Italy, which is a dead nation, he wished to find a method, either in France or England, of multiplying his millions, but remember, that though I place great confidence in Busoni, I am not responsible for this."

The expression “ a blue moon ” has come to refer to the second full moon occurring in any given calendar month. A second full moon is not called a blue moon because it is particularly blue or is any different in hue from the first full moon of the month. Instead, it is called a blue moon because it is so rare. The moon needs a little more than 29 days to complete the cycle from full moon to full moon. Because every month except February has more than 29 days, every month will have at least one full moon (except February, which will have a full moon unless there is a full moon at the very end of January and another full moon at the very beginning of March). It is on the occasion when a given calendar month has a second full moon that a blue moon occurs. This does not happen very often, only three or four times in a decade.

share. Under the system used by most financial news sources, the significance of these two reports is equal. Both rose four points. In reality, however, the day’s change for the $30 stock represents a 13.3 percent increase, and the day’s change for the $60 stock was only 6.7 percent. In other words, the reporting itself emphasizes points of change rather than percentage change in value per share. The reporting of price is emphasized because it is easily understood and readily available. The change in price per share is important to current stock- holders, so the perception is that the same level of importance applies to would-be buyers, as well. The reporting method is inaccurate and misleading. It also does not reveal the more significant information about a company; in other words, the comparative fundamental information. The financial press, of course, is like the rest of the press. It wants to convey information in a simple manner to report what is thought to be newsworthy. Every serious investor, however, has to be aware not only of the inaccuracies in reported information, but also of the fact that a daily change in a stock’s price means absolutely noth- ing in terms of a company’s value as an investment. It is only scorekeeping, and the game being reported—changes in stock prices—means nothing in the long term. The financial press identifies “winners” as those whose stock rose today and “losers” as those whose stock value fell. So that is the game. It has no rel- evance to the selection of stocks based on underlying, fundamental value, but it is misleading because so many investors make their decisions based not on a study of the company and its fundamentals, but on what they read and hear in the news.

QUANTITATIVE TECHNIQUES FOR COMPETITION AND ANTITRUST ANALYSIS 4 PPTX

In sum, the fixed-effects regression identifies the coefficients in ˇ by using the variation in the data within a group of observations, for example, across time for a given store as well as the across-store variation to the extent that the specification restricts the slope coefficients to be the same across stores (see the extensive discus- sion in chapter 2). If there is not enough within-store data variation, the regression will be uninformative about slope parameters. In fact, if most of the variation in the data is across groups because little changes within the groups, then by using the fixed effects we effectively lose all the information in the data into the fixed effects. One lesson is that analysts must be aware of the source of information, i.e., the source of the variation in the data set, when choosing the appropriate econo- metric technique. Fixed-effect estimators will help correct an endogeneity problem but to do so there must be sufficient within-group variation in the data. A second lesson is that fixed-effects estimators can be used to test cross-sectional evidence but the results must be interpreted carefully—a concern raised by a cross-sectional relationship between market structure and price may not be allayed by a finding that the relationship does not survive to the fixed-effects model. A mistaken belief that is the case can mean that a case handler erroneously finds there is no problem with a merger when in fact it is just that there is very little identifying variation in the explanatory variables in her data set.

The economics of Money, Banking and Financial Markets Part 10 pptx

Our discussion of Keynes’s analysis begins with a simple framework of aggregate output determination in which the role of government, net exports, and the possible effects of money and interest rates are ignored. Because we are assuming that govern- ment spending and net exports are zero ( G 0 and NX 0), we need only examine consumer expenditure and investment spending to explain how aggregate output is determined. This simple framework is unrealistic, because both government and monetary policy are left out of the picture, and because it makes other simplifying assumptions, such as a fixed price level. Still, the model is worth studying, because its simplified view helps us understand the key factors that explain how the economy works. It also clearly illustrates the Keynesian idea that the economy can come to rest at a level of aggregate output below the full employment level. Once you understand this simple framework, we can proceed to more complex and more realistic models.
