Of course, a breakup now would be very costly, requiring an international debt conference to restructure the periphery’s debts and the core’s claims. But breaking up earlier could allow the survival of the single market and of the EU. A futile attempt to avoid a breakup for a year or two – after wasting trillions of euros in additional official financing by the core – would mean a disorderly end, including the destruction of the single market, owing to the introduction of protectionist policies on a massive scale. So, if a breakup is unavoidable, delaying it implies much higher costs.
But politics in the eurozone does not permit consideration of an early breakup...Only time will tell whether betting the house to save the garage was the right move. - in Business Insider

The Olympics Were An Economic Failure
The Olympics are an economic failure as London is totally empty: hotels, restaurants, streets. They scared all off with crowd excess warnings.
By scaring everyone to stay out of London with warnings about too many people coming here it turns that London is totally empty, a zombie city. - in Huffington Post

When I Arrive In A Country, I Ask The Cab Driver How The Economy Is Doing
When I arrive in a country, the first thing I do is ask the cab driver how the economy is doing or what he thinks about their government. When I’m in the hotel, I ask the same questions, or I walk around and go to the local shopping center. You know, I try to get a sense. And when I’m in a country I also try to talk to people who are not necessarily purely the elite.
I think it’s true that the 1 Percent or the elite are living in a world of, maybe, excessive privilege, and they don’t fully realize how much pain and suffering, how much anxiety exists out there. I think there are lots of things that we have to figure out to make sure that we don’t have a social and political backlash. - in Business Insider

My Typical Day
I travel about two-thirds to three-quarters of my time, mostly abroad. When I travel I meet, first, clients of RGE. Second, prospects and people who may be interested in our work. Wherever I go, I tend to talk to policymakers in that particular country.
I find time to think, to read, to write. I meet people in the financial and business sector. I talk with other intellectuals and economists. I do media wherever I go.
Starting with a business breakfast or a business lunch or business dinner, I work nonstop. And often when I come back to the hotel, I have hundreds of e-mails to go through, and I write reports...you name it.
But you know, I also try to make time to see friends. I love the visual and the performing arts, so museums, galleries, theater, music. I’m in touch all the time with my team wherever I am. We have a team in New York, in London, and in New Delhi. We have a 24/7 operation. - in Business Insider

The Gravity Of Weaker Growth

New QE Will Not Boost Spending
The U.S. Federal Reserve will carry out more quantitative easing this year, but it will be ineffective; long-term interest rates are already too low, and lowering them further would not boost spending. - in The Examiner.com

The Consensus Got It Wrong
Even this year, the consensus got it wrong, expecting a recovery to annual GDP growth of better than 3 percent.
And now, after getting the first half of 2012 wrong, many are repeating the fairy tale that a combination of lower oil prices, rising auto sales, recovering house prices, and a resurgence of U.S. manufacturing will boost growth in the second half of the year and fuel above-potential growth by 2013. - in Yahoo Finance

Growth In Earnings And Profits Is Now Running Out Of Steam
The gravity of weaker growth will most likely overcome the levitational effect on equity prices from more quantitative easing, particularly given that equity valuations today are not as depressed as they were in 2009 or 2010. Indeed, growth in earnings and profits is now running out of steam, as the effect of weak demand on top-line revenues takes a toll on bottom-line margins and profitability. - in Project Syndicate
