McCain's no economist, he's confused about Obama's tax plan - and apparent
2008-07-08 01:54:00 Senator Obama?s plan will not raise taxes - it WILL provide a bigger break for middle class Americans than Senator McCain?s plan. As numerous outside observers agree: McCAIN?S claims that Obama will raise taxes are ?WRONG,? ?FALSE,? ?MISLEADING? Do you trust factcheck.org? That' s one of many sources cited in the article McCain?s claims that Obama will raise taxes are wrong.It?s misleading to tag Obama for something that was built in to the Bush tax cuts. Remember that they are set to auto-expire - that's the law Bush signed.Senator McCain has announced that he would balance the budget by 2013.The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) projects that the unified budget deficit will be $443 billion in 2013 assuming that expiring tax cuts are extended. To balance the budget in that year John McCain would have to pay for all of his campaign proposals plus cut another $443 billion of spending. To give a sense of why this pledge is not credible, cutting spending by $443 billion would requir...

Bank Indonesia expected to raise key rate by 25-50 basis points: economist
2008-06-04 04:04:00 Bank Indonesia (the central bank/BI) is likely to raise its key rate by 25-50 basis points at the meeting of its board of governors on Thursday as the on-month inflation rate in May reached 1.41 percent, an economist said. "I think the BI Rate will be raised by 25-50 basis points this month in view of the high inflation rate last month," Fauzi Ihzan of PT Standard Chartered Bank said on Tuesday. The rise in BI Rate was not aimed at easing inflationary pressure but at stemming the expected high inflation rates, he said. The current inflation was chiefly caused by the global inflation triggered by a surge in food and energy prices, he said. "The current inflation is caused by a surge in global food and energy prices that no any other central bank in the world can stem. So, the rise in BI Rate by 25 basis points or more will only stem the expected high inflation rates in six months` time rather than to reduce the inflation rates," he said. Even if the BI Rate was raised by 2...

the economist on san francisco business etiquette
2008-05-19 06:35:00 It's great to see The Economist try its hand at giving advice for businessmen traveling to San Francisco. It reads a little like a field manual for a new potentially hostile territory.Here's what they say about meeting etiquette."Meetings and greetings• It is important to both start and end appointments on time. If you’re driving between San Francisco and Silicon Valley, add 20% to your travel time and always take highway 280 over highway 101 if you can—it is usually faster and always prettier. When possible, schedule your meetings between 10am and 3pm to avoid rush hours.• Don’t be offended if people neglect to shake your hand or take your business card in large business meetings. Americans (and Californians) are more informal than you may be used to. • Having said that, carry as many business cards as possible, after making room for all the newest high-tech gadgets.• Be generous with your contacts.

For some companies the brand can account for as much as 70 percent of its market value. This book argues that because of this and because of the power of not-for-profit brands like the Red Cross or Oxfam, all organizations should make the brand their central organizing principle, guiding every decision and every action. As well as making the case for brands and examining the argument of the antiglobalization movement that big brands are bullies which do harm, "Brands and Branding" provides a review of best practices in branding, covering everythin...

Economist: U.S. housing slump may exceed Depression
2008-05-10 22:51:00 An influential economist who long predicted the housing market bubble cautioned Tuesday that the slump in the U.S. housing market could cause prices to fall more than they did in the Great Depression and bailouts will be needed so millions don't lose their homes. Yale University economist Robert Shiller, pioneer of the widely watched Standard & Poor's/Case-Shiller home price index, said there's a good chance housing prices will fall further than the 30 percent drop in the historic depression of the 1930s. Home prices nationwide already have dropped 15 percent since their peak in 2006, he said. "I think there is a scenario that they could be down substantially more," Shiller said during a speech at the New Haven Lawn Club. Shiller's Standard & Poor's/Case-Shiller home price index is considered a strong measure of home prices because it examines price changes of the same property over time, instead of calculating a median price of h...

There's still supply out there in abundance ?

Indonesia's economy under threat of high external inflation: economist
2008-04-23 02:38:00 The Indonesian economy is expected to be under a threat of high external inflation this year due to a surge in the global crude and food prices, an economist said. The threat had been noticeable now following a recent increase in the prices of several food commodities in the global market, Martin Pangabean of state-owned Bank Mandiri said in an "Economic Outlook 2008" report here on Tuesday. "Countries in all parts of the world, except Indonesia, saw their year-on-year inflation rate in February 2008 climbing by five- to ten-fold from a year earlier," he said. Domestic inflation pressures would be caused by at least three factors -- global food prices, the rupiah`s exchange rate against the dollar, and the pressures of global crude price spiral on the state budget, he noted. Based on the bank`s forecast, although the rupiah`s exchange rate against the dollar currently reached a reasonable level of Rp9,258 a dollar it still had the potential of weakening against the green...
