No way out for central banks

Gold took a beating on Wednesday, amid media chatter about the mythical notion of tighter monetary policy from the Federal Reserve. Evidence for this appears no more convincing than at anytime since the start of the Fed’s QE programmes back in 2009, but that hasn’t stopped the speculation, with one trader telling WSJ that ...

The impossibility of economic calculation in a fiat world

The purpose of keeping accurate accounts is to quantify net worth at any given point in time – as well as the change from a prior date. It goes without saying that the measure used, money, should be constant if comparisons over time are to mean anything.

Central bankers and politicians are running out of ideas

My father, who at one time was an education minister in the Kenyan government, used to tell a story of a long-forgotten crisis when the leaders in the educational establishment could only turn to him and ask: ”minister, what shall we do?” The point of the story is that these were all highly qualified senior academics, while my ...

There was an interesting note from Agora Financial a few weeks ago raising the following question.
