The Distortion Theory of Macroeconomic Forecasting
Praeger Publishers Inc (Verlag)
978-0-89930-910-1 (ISBN)
Central bank policies inevitably alter patterns of supply and demand from what they would be, based on consumer sovereignty. This changes the mix of human and physical capital available to produce a mixture of consumer goods. The economy struggles to right itself against these imbalances. Ultimately, the monetary velocity and price inflation start to rise, worsening the government's problems. In time, either a traditional depression or a runaway inflation results. The gold standard would prevent the twin evils of recession and price inflation. Investment professionals, corporate economists and others in strategic and financial planning capacities will find Mr. Marquard's book both challenging and provocative.
STEVEN MARQUARD is President of Smilodom Financial Consulting, Berkeley, California, and holds an MBA in Applied Economics from the University of California, Berkeley./e A certified public accountant, he has also been Chief Economist for Southern Pacific and the Assistant Treasurer for Bio-Rad Laboratories.
