Markets Quotes

I am one of the most successful economists, according to what markets tell us, though most of my professional colleagues, who are much keener to accept market outcomes than I am, would dismiss me as a crank or - the worst of all abuses among economists - a ‘sociologist.’ Picture Quote #1

Money and prices and markets don’t give us exact information about how much our suburbs, freeways, and spandex cost. Instead, everything else is giving us accurate information: our beleaguered air and watersheds, our overworked soils, our decimated inner cities. All of these provide information our prices should be giving us but do not Picture Quote #1

The financial markets play an active role in determining what’s going to happen, how the economy is going to function Picture Quote #1

I think it’s a competitive advantage that both Amazon and Google and other tech companies have over a lot of their counterparts. They take big risks and are pioneering new markets with the promise of big rewards. It’s why Amazon is kind of reliably starting new businesses and opening kind of new frontiers Picture Quote #1

Consumer sales depend on the habits and behaviors of consumers, and those who manipulate consumer markets cannot but address behavior and attitude. That is presumably the object of the multibillion-dollar global advertising industry. Tea drinkers are improbable prospects for Coke sales Picture Quote #1

The insidious aid culture has left African countries more debt-laden, more inflation-prone, more vulnerable to the vagaries of the currency markets and more unattractive to higher-quality investment Picture Quote #1

That’s probably good, all things being equal, for emerging markets, not bad, even though it may not be great for all their currencies Picture Quote #1

Remember that all financial markets are filled with good but not necessarily innocent people looking after their own self-interests before they look after yours Picture Quote #1

To open up new markets and create American jobs, we need to make global bilateral free trade agreements a priority as they were under the Clinton administration Picture Quote #1

One of the most constant aspects of American life is change - and nowhere is it more evident than in our financial markets Picture Quote #1

Because pandemics almost always begin with the transmission of an animal microbe to a human, it’s work that takes me all around the globe - from rain forest hunting camps of central Africa to wild animal markets of east Asia Picture Quote #1

I have traveled a fair amount, and I have visited some great cities. I love architecture and museums and castles and ruins and central markets and even double-decker bus tours. But, I am a sucker for a tropical beach Picture Quote #1

Behind the criticism of fashion as an artistic medium is a highly ideological prejudice: against markets, against consumers, against the dynamism of Western commercial society. The debate is not about art but about culture and economics Picture Quote #1

As the economy faces such difficulties, more tough questions need to be asked about what the Tories would do if elected. Their ideology of free markets and small government needs challenging. That has to be part of our job Picture Quote #1

The thing about markets, and I think the thing people don’t understand about that, is markets are not kind, but they’re very efficient. So when the marketplace determines an inefficiency in the system, it corrects that, and a market system that’s left alone will reward good behavior and punish bad behavior Picture Quote #1

If we make all of the people good, markets will be good. If markets are bad, which they are, that means people are bad, which they are. Want good markets? Change the people Picture Quote #1

I think there were bad actors in the government and bad actors in the finance, mortgage, markets industries that need to be called out and held accountable Picture Quote #1

Speculators get a bad rap. In the popular imagination they’re greedy, heedless, and amoral, adept at price manipulations and dirty tricks. In reality, they often play a key role in making markets run smoothly Picture Quote #1

I’m not suggesting that social scientists stop teaching and investigating classic topics like monopoly power, racial profiling and health inequality. But everyone knows that monopoly power is bad for markets, that people are racially biased and that illness is unequally distributed by social class Picture Quote #1

The U.S. has since the end of World War II had an answer - we stand for free peoples and free markets, we are willing to support and defend them - we will sustain a balance of power that favors freedom Picture Quote #1

Based on a lifetime of observations and a few decades in the markets, I understand that societies, beliefs and fashions all move in long arcs of time. We call these arcs several things: cycles, periods, eras Picture Quote #1

Global overcapacity in steel production can no longer be ignored. Foreign governments’ intervention in steel markets has had a devastating impact on the U.S. industry Picture Quote #1

I’d like to talk about free markets. Information in the computer age is the last genuine free market left on earth except those free markets where indigenous people are still surviving. And that’s basically becoming limited Picture Quote #1

While you can find zucchini in markets in most places year-round, allowing you to make everything from breakfast dishes like zucchini and onion frittatas to snacks like zucchini-stuffed crab cakes, the onset of fall marks the beginning of hard squash season Picture Quote #1

While big business gain subsidies and political access, small businesses drown in red tape, and individuals now risk being classified as terrorists for complaining about it. Economic globalisation is about homogenising differences in the worlds’ markets, cultures, tastes and traditions. It’s about giving big business access to a global market Picture Quote #1

Companies are always being bought and sold. The markets are always moving; you have to be on top of your position. And in the U.S., the market is never closed for more than three days. The only time the market was ever closed was 9/11. I think it may have been closed the whole week Picture Quote #1

Sometimes it is my impression that most politicians are still not aware of being under the control of the financial markets and are even governed by them Picture Quote #1

I’m not a knee-jerk conservative. I passionately believe in free markets and less government, but not to the point of being a libertarian Picture Quote #1

It’s a funny thing, by the way, how people who love free markets are also quite sure that they know that investors are being irrational Picture Quote #1

When the Soviet Union fell, optimistic scholars believed the world had shifted inexorably in the direction of free markets and liberal democracy. Instead, the West gradually embraced bigger government and weaker social bonds, creating a fragmented society in which the only thing we all belong to, as President Barack Obama puts it, is the state Picture Quote #1
