It feel to $2.05 a gallon here in the Valley. It's a bargain, right? I heard that OPEC is going to meet tomorrow to try and probably collude some deal. The demand for oil has fallen. I linked an [article] in one of my journal saying that prices will fall because demand will fall, specifically in the business sector. Businesses wouldn't be able to ( Read more... )

Funky thing I learned. I found from reading my brilliant textbook on microeconomics that there exists a model by a Dr. Ray Fair which supposedly predicts the election semi-accurately. Neat, huh? Also, I'm flooded with too much information now, that I found this. There's *le gasp* blogs.

More pseudointellectualism acoming. I know jack about this subject.You hear what happened? I was at my university's library wondering what was happening on the news because I'm cut off from it every Monday and Wednesday, and I learned that the $700 billion bailout bill was killed in the House. Besides that, it seems the Dow Jones fell by 777 points ( Read more... )

I feel like I have too much stuff on queue to learn about. I check out books on economics and never find the time to read about stuff like it. Yesterday, on the Colbert Report, Colbert had a guest Nicholas Carr. He spoke of how the Internet has made us lose focus and weakened our critical thinking skills. Since we browse so quickly and cycle ( Read more... )

So what happened? I know so little about economics and financing. It would actually be cool if my inept microeconomics professor spoke more about it. My accounting professor did. I've read a lot of articles though from Real Clear Markets and watched too much CNN. Let's organize some thoughts here. Hmm, I just found out that Washington Mutual failed ( Read more... )

I sure wish my microeconomics class was better because it sucks. In class, we are doing just about line graph and their slopes, and bar graphs. It's extremely lame because I'm actually interested in learning about economics and how it relates to the world like my summer macroeconomics class. Of course, microeconomics is something different but ( Read more... )

You know what? There are no good symbols to represent economics. Physics has the atom, chemistry has the Erlenmeyer flask, psychology has the brain, medicine has the caduceus, but economics? This lame question came when I tried to look for a symbol of economics to use as a user icon on some other website. to make. Economics is the study of the ( Read more... )

This is me acting pseudointellectual. This will be fun to look back after I take more economic classes
I took AP Microeconomics in high school and that made me impressed about the science called economics. My teacher was saying once that when it comes to electronic goods and rebate prices. The reason these exist is because some people actually have ( Read more... )

I got to admit, writing economics (経済) in Japanese is far more cooler than writing chemistry (化学). Most of whatever is down there, is just nasty stream of thought of what I heard, learned, and thought about the class. INANITY OVERLOADI took an elementary macroeconomics class this summer semester and it was pretty interesting. I also got an A which ( Read more... )
