There’s an interesting story in the New York Magazine by Michael Osinski–the author of the main software package used to create the CMOs and CDOs that have helped cripple the financial system.
Osinski’s story is worth a read in its own right. But what I found curious about it was that he appears unaware of …
I’m still having difficulties getting my podcasts up and running at the moment, so in lieu here is a link to the ABC Radio National Big Ideas recording of an Evatt Foundation forum on the Global Financial Crisis.
Speakers were Bernie Fraser, ex-Governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia, myself, and Garry Weiss, a corporate lawyer …
The whole of the most recent Real World Economics Review (formerly known as the Post-Autistic Economics Review) is devoted to the question of “How should the collapse of the world financial system affect economics?”.
My paper, which led volume 49, is reproduced below. If you’d like to read the entire volume, click here for the …
This is a facetious way of letting you all know that, as of about 5 minutes ago, there are now 1,000 users (plus yours truly) subcribed to this blog.

It seems we’ve moved from Stanley Kubrick to John Cleese. Rory Robertson’s reply to my “Rory Robertson Designs a Car” post reminds me of one of my many favourite scenes from Monty Python, the fight between King Arthur and the Black Knight:
King Arthur: Look, you …
A new high performance hybrid car has recently been released by a Roring Motors, Inc. According to Managing Director Rory Robertson, the new “GoFlowMobile” ™© achieves unparalleled performance for a hybrid car, by applying a simple insight from economics to the hide-bound world of engineering.
Mr Robertson, an economist, took over the firm in a …
Bnet Australia has just posted an interview with me by Phil Dobbie.
The interview is linked here, and I’ve also tried to post it to my podcast feed using a new WordPress plug in.
Can subscribers to the Debtwatch podcast please let me know whether this turns up in their iTunes, etc.? I don’t get any …
Jon Stewart at “Comedy Central” put together a masterful rip into the stock market spruikers on the CNBC network, exposing how their so-called expertise was little more than a blind exhortation to join in the euphoric excess of the bubble, and to keep it alive as it died an inevitable death.
It’s both informative and …
