A review of the past 60 years of inflation and monetary policy shows why the Fed must be conservative as it considers rate cuts later this year.
The doom-and-gloom pundits are wrong. The U.S. economy is in good shape, but there are three dark clouds lurking on the horizon.
Biden’s immigration policy and his bad fiscal management could create a depression worse than the 1930s.
The U.S. government has suffered its second credit downgrade. Given the reaction from the Biden administration, we can safely predict: this is only the beginning.
Good news! America has avoided a recession. But the Federal Reserve can still make one happen.
Americans for Tax Reform have a new spending reform project. Will it work? Is it ‘conservative enough’? We have the analysis.
The Federal Reserve, eager to not let a good crisis go to waste, is using the SVB crisis to quietly turn on the money supply faucet again.
Given the high level of economic integration in Europe, it is unlikely that a recession will be confined to half the continent.
Although some countries have recovered, overall economic activity has been disappointing. To make matters worse, a closer look at capital formation—a.k.a., business investments—and consumer spending suggest that a recession is in fact just around the corner.

As Croatia’s lawmakers enter the final stretch toward euro membership, it is essential that they understand exactly what happened in Greece, and why. In five short years, 2009-2014, the Greek economy imploded: one quarter of it vanished. This was a direct result of the austerity packages that the EU and the ECB forced upon the government in Athens. What will Croatia do to avoid ending up in the same trap as Greece?
Rather than sinking further into debt to maintain current, high levels of government spending, it is time for Europe’s leaders to fundamentally reconsider their economic and social policies. It is time for them to adopt an entirely new program for economic prosperity.
Reckless government spending is going to provoke more fiscal austerity in Europe. There is no right way to do austerity. Here is why.
Will Biden and Trump debate the government debt? For the sake of America’s future, let us hope they do.
The Mises Institute has gone on an all-out attack against the Federal Reserve. Why don’t they focus on the real problem in our economy?
It appears that European elites have once again outmaneuvered conservatives.
There are signs that the policymakers at the ECB realize that this rate cut was not a very good idea.
Getting the numbers right is the first step toward closing the budget gap. Here is the first step; when will we see the next?
When economists forecast with great accuracy, and when their forecasts produce eerily convenient numbers, it is wise to be cautious.
