  • Syria: Reżim Asadów” Znajdziemy Się W Samym Sercu Syrii I Spojrzymy Na Ręce Baszara Al-Assada, Który Prowadzi Bezwzględną Politykę Wewnętrzną I Międzynarodową
    WYBRANE PROPOZYCJE PROGRAMOWE National Geographic styczeń 2019 r. W Nowy Rok kanał National Geographic wchodzi z mnóstwem nowych produkcji. Przeniesiemy się w przeszłość, choć będą to czasy, które wielu widzów doskonale pamięta. Nowy serial fabularno- dokumentalny „Internetowy boom” pokaże nam, jak powstawała słynna Dolina Krzemowa i jak rosła bańka internetowa, która w końcu musiała pęknąć. Z kolei m.in. o powstaniu internetu opowie seria „1989 – globalna rewolucja”. Pokaże ona także inne przełomowe wydarzenia, które miały miejsce 30 lat temu, a wśród nich upadek komunizmu w Polsce. Będziemy też świadkami niezwykłych wydarzeń, które zobaczymy od wewnątrz. W programie „Krwawa szkoła” przeżyjemy wojenną misję, oglądając ją oczami żołnierzy. Dokument „Tajemnice Secret Service” pozwoli nam z kolei wziąć udział w misjach specjalnych Tajnej Służby Stanów Zjednoczonych. Za sprawą dokumentu „Syria: reżim Asadów” znajdziemy się w samym sercu Syrii i spojrzymy na ręce Baszara Al-Assada, który prowadzi bezwzględną politykę wewnętrzną i międzynarodową. W styczniu czeka nas także mocna dawka wrażeń z seriami „Plemienna szkoła przetrwania” i „Plemienna szkoła przetrwania: ryzykowna gra”. Instruktor survivalu Hazen Audel zabierze nas w rejony, z których przeciętni turyści nie uszliby z życiem. On jednak nauczy się technik przetrwania od lokalnej ludności. Seria „Szaleństwo na pokładzie” pozwoli nam z kolei uczestniczyć w najbardziej niebezpiecznych, dramatycznych i wzruszających momentach na pokładach samolotów. A skoro o pokładach mowa, zagłębimy się w historię historycznego rejsu Titanica i sprawdzimy dokładnie, co skrywa wrak leżący na dnie Atlantyku. KATASTROFA W PRZESTWORZACH AIR CRASH INVESTIGATION 18 Premiery w poniedziałki od 28 stycznia o godz. 21:00 (10x60 min) Był 28 listopada 2016 roku. Samolot z brazylijską drużyną piłkarską Chapecoense miał wkrótce lądować na lotnisku w Kolumbii.

  • Asset Bubbles and Product Market Competition
    Asset Bubbles and Product Market Competition Francisco Queirós* Universitat Pompeu Fabra February 9, 2018 Abstract This paper studies the effects of rational bubbles in an economy characterized by imperfect competition in product markets. It provides two main insights. The first is that imperfect competition relaxes the conditions for the existence of rational bubbles. When they have market power, firms restrict output and investment to enjoy supernormal profits. This depresses the interest rate, making rational bubbles possible even when capital accumulation is dynamically efficient. The second is that by providing a production or entry subsidy, asset bubbles may have a pro-competitive effect and force firms to expand and cut profit margins. However, once they get too large they can lead to overinvestment and sustain corporate losses. I use anecdotal evidence from the British railway mania of the 1840s and the dotcom bubble of the late 1990s to support the model’s hypotheses and predictions.

  • Why Wouldn't You Vote?
    Sen. Markey and Rep. Kennedy address Lynn Democratic City Committee. A3 MONDAY, OCTOBER 28, 2019 Nov. 5. No excuses. Voting is our duty BY STEVE KRAUSE The way I look at it, voting isn’t just a right. It is a duty. Presidents, senators, congressman/women, mayors, city councilors … they are not appointed positions. We elected these people. If something happens where an elected of cial cannot ful ll a term, and one is appointed, there is an election at the earliest opportunity to ll the position legally (unless a Constitutional chain of succession is followed). That’s pretty much all the Constitution dictates — and all it guarantees. It says nothing about any assurances that one of the two candidates in a nal runoff is lik- able, or whether either, by some happy miracle, mirrors your own political viewpoints. In fact, more often than not, both candidates have gaping holes in their political DNA to that point where, if you dwell only on those, you’d never vote at all.

    WORKING PAPER NO. 607 Asset Bubbles and Product Market Competition Francisco Queirós March 2021 University of Naples Federico II University of Salerno Bocconi University, Milan CSEF - Centre for Studies in Economics and Finance DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMICS – UNIVERSITY OF NAPLES 80126 NAPLES - ITALY Tel. and fax +39 081 675372 – e-mail: [email protected] ISSN: 2240-9696 WORKING PAPER NO. 607 Asset Bubbles and Product Market Competition Francisco Queirós* Abstract This paper studies the interactions between asset bubbles and competition. I first document a negative industrylevel relationship between measures of stock market overvaluation and indicators of market power: larger overvaluation is associated with an increase in the number of firms, lower markups and a higher probability of negative earnings. I then construct multi-industry growth model featuring imperfect competition and rational bubbles that sheds light on these findings. By providing an entry or production subsidy, bubbles stimulate competition and reduce monopoly rents. When they are sufficiently large they can, however, lead to excessive entry and competition. I also show that imperfect competition depresses the interest rate, thereby relaxing the conditions for the emergence of rational bubbles.

  • Top 10 Dot-Com Flops by Kent German the Most Astounding Thing About the Dot-Com Boom Was the Obscene Amount of Money Spent
    Top 10 dot-com flops By Kent German The most astounding thing about the dot-com boom was the obscene amount of money spent. Zealous venture capitalists fell over themselves to invest millions in start-ups; dot-coms blew millions on spectacular marketing campaigns; new college graduates became instant millionaires and rushed out to spend it; and companies with unproven business models executed massive IPOs with sky-high stock prices. We all know what eventually happened. Most of hese start-ups died dramatic deaths. These are the celebrity victims of the new- economy bust. You can avoid giving a flop as a gift this holiday. Take a look at the CNET Holiday Gift Guide. Webvan (1999-2001) A core lesson from the dot-com boom is that even if you have a good idea, it's best not to grow too fast too soon. But online grocer Webvan was the poster child for doing just that, making the celebrated company our number one dot-com flop. In a mere 18 months, it raised $375 million in an IPO, expanded from the San Francisco Bay Area to eight U.S. cities, and built a gigantic infrastructure from the ground up (including a $1 billion order for a group of high-tech warehouses). Webvan came to be worth $1.2 billion (or $30 per share at its peak), and it touted a 26-city expansion plan. But considering that the grocery business has razor-thin margins to begin with, it was never able to attract enough customers to justify its spending spree.
