This helps to explain the economic stagnation from the dark...

Does the Phillips Curve Live in Europe?
There's been much talk about the Phillips curve lately, especially in the wake of Jay Powell's recent testimony before Congress. Many people are proclaiming the death of the Phillips curve.

Are people referring to the absence of any statistical correlation between...

In case you haven't heard, Facebook has recently set up a financial subsidiary, Calibra, and has issued a so-called "white paper" which is a proposal to issue a cryptocurrency, Libra. As stated in the white paper, "Libra's mission is to enable a simple global currency and financial infrastructure that empowers billions of people." Sounds rather lofty, don't you think? Financial innovation that's going to make a significant...

Positive Money and I have had an exchange of blog posts on FT’s Alphaville about their suggestions for what the successor to Mark Carney, Governor of the Bank of England, should and should not do.
