Is Economic Development The Key To Mideast Peace?
by Michael J. Boskin via Project Syndicate
Now that the Trump administration has offered a blueprint for economic development and reform in the Palestinian territories, the opportunity costs of maintaining the status quo are clear for all to see. Although the Palestinians remain opposed to the plan, at least now they can start to consider the economic potential of peace.

ARTHUR LAFFER: MEDIAL OF FREEDOM FOR ECONOMICS & BURKE ON ECONOMICS

6/22/2019

The Medal of Freedom in Economics Editorial of The New York Sun | June 22, 2019
https://www.nysun.com/editorials/the-medal-of-freedom-in-economics/90739/
It turns out that President Trump's presentation Wednesday of the Medal of Freedom to the supply-side economist Art Laffer coincided with a record-high of the stock market -- at least as measured by the Standard & Poor's 500. That is nicely marked in the latest number of the FutureOfCapitalismblog, edited by our columnist Ira Stoll. He notes that the market's apex was hit despite the war-clouds scudding out of Iran.

RULES & INSTRUMENTS FOR MONETARY POLICY REVIEWED

A Rule That Makes Sense of the Fed
Peter Ireland, E21

Recent Decisions And Rules Of The Fed
by John B. Taylor via Economics One
Last week, after attending monetary policy conferences at Stanford, Chicago and Frankfurt, I put forth evidence in EconomicsOne.com of a revival of research on monetary policy rules for the instruments, whether at the conferences, in research papers, or in Fed publications. I offered possible explanations for the revival, also with evidence, including revealed preference by policymakers, the need to deal with the effective lower bound, disappointments with past departures from rules, threats of legislation, and concerns about political pressure.

A Revival Of Research On Monetary Policy Rules For The Instruments
by John B. Taylor via Economics One
Recently I had the opportunity to participate in several conferences on monetary policy: the annual Hoover monetary policy conference at Stanford in May, the 2019 Fed Review conference in Chicago in June, and the Macro Model Comparison Conference in Frankfurt also in June. There are many takeaways, but one was very evident. I will call it a “Revival of Research on Monetary Policy Rules for the Instruments.”

A Reform Agenda For Modi 2.0
quoting Raghuram Rajan via The Hindu Business Line
Thirteen economists offer non-partisan, common-sense prescriptions for policy action across various sectors Earlier this week, barely days after Narendra Modi led the BJP to a stunning re-election triumph and the new Ministry took charge, a trickle of official data confirmed the bad economic news that everyone but the government had known about for months.

Hezbollah Isn’t Broke. So Why Is Everyone Claiming Otherwise?
Tony Badran — Tablet Magazine
In this age of polarization, the unanimity of this take is all the more remarkable, as it is shared by the Trump administration, Middle Eastern analysts, as well as The New York Times, The Washington Post, and even the Israeli government.But this conventional wisdom is wrong. Hezbollah is nowhere close to being broke... Read More

Trump’s Iran Crackdown Isn’t Enough to Stop Hezbollah
Unless Washington targets the group more effectively, it can outlive the pressure on Tehran.

Hezbollah said to bypass US sanctions by entering drug trade into Europe

Iran’s economy has had a turbulent decade. In 2016, Iran was on the rise economically, but since 2018, United States sanctions have sent the Middle Eastern nation in a downward spiral. The sanctions had previously been lifted under the 2015 nuclear deal between the two countries. Now, experts predict that Iran will face a shrinking economy, ballooning inflation, and a significant budget deficit. As Iran looks to the future, it’s relying on trade partners other than the US in hopes to get its economy back on track. Here are eight surprising facts about Iran’s economy. – Business Insider

Taylor's Rule: Too High, Too Low - Where Should Interest Rates Go?
featuring John B. Taylor via Biz News
Taylor’s Rule is an interest rate forecasting model invented by John Taylor in the early 90s. And according to Investopedia “it’s a proposed guideline for how central banks should alter interest rates in response to changes in economic conditions.” In South Africa, the Reserve Bank’s mandate is very topical at present, which in turn sets up a discussion around interest rates. SARB’s current mandate is tailored around a targeted inflation band of 3-6%, with the repo rate currently at 6.75%.
