Economic forecasters can’t avoid them, either.</p> <p>Ever since oil prices collapsed last fall, the best guess of economists has been that oil prices would gradually firm up. The average of predictions in The Wall Street Journal’s <a href="http://projects.wsj.com/econforecast/#ind=gdp&r=20">survey of economists</a> has shown that forecasters typically expect prices to rise about $5 every six months.</p> <p style="text-align: center"><img class="size-full wp-image-5 aligncenter" style="text-align: center;background-color: #f3f3f3" src="http://si.wsj.net/public/resources/images/BN-JV538_gusher_G_20150813084049.jpg" alt="" width="553" height="369" /></p> <p>Crude oil prices climbed earlier this year—even briefly surpassing $60 a barrel—only to plunge again over recent weeks as investors contemplated the possibility that there’s simply not enough global demand to support higher prices. As oil prices plunged back below $50 and slid toward $40, it left economists’ forecasts as wrecked as a 1980s oil town in West Texas. At no point in the last 12 months have economists anticipated that oil could drop so low.</p> <div class="mceTemp " style="text-align: left"> <dl class="wp-caption aligncenter caption-centered " style="width: 553px"> <dt class="wp-caption-dt"><img class="size-full wp-image-5" src="http://si.wsj.net/public/resources/images/BN-JV569_inffix_G_20150813100150.jpg" alt="" width="553" height="369" /></dt> </dl> </div> <p>The missed forecasts of oil prices matter because of how much oil feeds into inflation. As a crude rule of thumb, energy prices make up about 10% of the consumer-price index, so a major drop in oil can cause inflation to fall through the floor. That’s exactly what’s happened and economists didn’t anticipate it. For the past year, they have forecast that the annual rate of change for the consumer-price index would return to slightly above 2% within about a year.</p> <p><strong>Related reading:</strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.wsj.com/articles/wsj-survey-economists-cite-budget-battle-as-a-top-threat-1439474579">WSJ Survey: Economists Cite Budget Battle as a Top Threat</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.wsj.com/articles/wsj-survey-economists-expect-fed-rate-liftoff-in-september-1439474573">WSJ Survey: Economists Expect Fed Rate Liftoff in September</a></p> <p><a href="http://projects.wsj.com/econforecast/#ind=gdp&r=20">Explore the Economic Forecast</a></p> <div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.wsjonline.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?a=hgPtxqbF-l0:JZPAo7AESp0:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.wsjonline.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?a=hgPtxqbF-l0:JZPAo7AESp0:F7zBnMyn0Lo"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?i=hgPtxqbF-l0:JZPAo7AESp0:F7zBnMyn0Lo" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.wsjonline.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?a=hgPtxqbF-l0:JZPAo7AESp0:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?i=hgPtxqbF-l0:JZPAo7AESp0:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.wsjonline.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?a=hgPtxqbF-l0:JZPAo7AESp0:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/wsj/economics/feed/~4/hgPtxqbF-l0" height="1" width="1" alt=""/> Choosing the Right Hair Loss Treatment in Malaysia http://onem4youth.blogspot.com/2017/01/choosing-right-hair-loss-treatment-in.html Simply Malaysia urn:uuid:5454f84f-a039-d85b-dcad-a33ea509f937 Thu, 26 Jan 2017 05:14:31 +0000 <p>Millions of people get affected by hair loss.

These accusations were off base: by boosting domestic spending with easier monetary policy, everyone, including their trading partners, benefited.</p> <p>But China’s move this week to <a href="http://www.wsj.com/articles/china-moves-to-devalue-the-yuan-1439258401">devalue the yuan</a> is an exception. Because its action was not part of a broader monetary boost, the effect will be to siphon demand from its trading partners while giving nothing in return. It is a zero-sum game and thus the first shot in a currency war.</p> <p>When the <strong>Federal Reserve</strong> or the <strong>European Central Bank</strong> ease monetary policy by cutting interest rates or buying bonds, it prompts investors to move their money elsewhere in search of a better return. This will ordinarily drive down the dollar or the euro. The Fed and ECB, though, have no say in how much it will drop. They only know that the boost to their economies will come through the combined effect of lower interest rates and a lower currency. While the latter may hurt their trading partners, the former will help since stronger domestic demand usually leads to more imports.</p> <p>By contrast, China has a closed financial system and routinely adjusts interest and exchange rates independently of each other. This week’s devaluation did not come about because of an interest rate cut, but in lieu of one. In seeking to stimulate the economy, the Chinese authorities appear to have taken aim at exports, rather than take the chance that lower rates might elevate asset prices and debt.</p> <div class="mceTemp " style="text-align: left"> <dl class="wp-caption alignleft caption-alignleft " style="width: 262px"> <dt class="wp-caption-dt"><img class="size-full wp-image-5" src="http://si.wsj.net/public/resources/images/MW-DS023_hk_exc_D_20150812124452.jpg" alt="" width="262" height="174" /></dt> <dd class="wp-caption-dd" style="text-align: left">Pedestrians walk past a currency exchange store in Hong Kong on Wednesday. </dd> <dd class="wp-caption-dd wp-cite-dd" style="text-align: right">XAUME OLLEROS/BLOOMBERG</dd> </dl> </div> <p>The U.S. and the <strong>International Monetary Fund</strong> have long called on China to let market forces rather than government diktat determine the yuan’s value. This is what China claims to be doing. Market forces had been pressing the yuan to the bottom of its permitted trading band, and henceforth, that trading band itself will adjust in accordance with where market forces are pushing the currency.</p> <p>But this is far cry from truly making the yuan market-determined. The fact that the <strong>People’s Bank of China</strong> will maintain any sort of trading band, that the formula behind the band remains a black box, and that trading (at least of the onshore currency) may not occur outside that band, are all at odds with the true market determination.</p> <p>How, one might ask, is this different from, say, Denmark, which pegs its currency, the krone, to the euro? The reason is that Denmark adjusts its monetary instruments–interest rates and the volume of the volume of krone that it prints–to ensure that the market <em>wants</em> the exchange rate to trade at the peg. If the market is pushing the krone above that level, Denmark has to lower interest rates, print krone and buy euros. Thus, the krone’s peg and its fundamental market value are the same.</p> <p>For China, the equivalent action would be to allow unlimited purchases and sales of yuan by foreigners and residents, and then use both intervention and interest rates to push the yuan to its desired level. But for all their talk of market reforms, China’s authorities remain deeply attached to having as many macroeconomic levers as possible, and making the exchange rate an appendage of monetary policy, as in most countries, would surrender one of those levers.</p> <p>While on the surface China has moved in the direction of market determination, it is surely not a coincidence that it came when markets were pushing the yuan in the direction the authorities consider essential for economic stimulus. This has the collateral benefit of leaving the Obama Administration tongue-tied. Since in principle the U.S. only wants the yuan to be market-determined, it can’t really complain if the result is that the yuan goes down instead of up.</p> <p>But the real test of whether China is truly committed to market determination is when market forces push in the opposite direction to what the authorities prefer. Perhaps China really means it, and will stand aside when that happens. On the other hand, its commitment to market-determined equity prices lasted so long as those prices kept going up, and melted away when prices headed down.</p> <p><strong>Related reading:</strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.wsj.com/articles/china-intervenes-to-support-tumbling-yuan-1439373732">Markets Test China’s Vow to Ease Grip on Yuan</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.wsj.com/articles/cheaper-chinese-currency-has-global-impact-1439336422">Cheaper Chinese Currency Has Global Impact</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.wsj.com/articles/chinas-neighbors-feel-pain-of-yuan-devaluation-1439386192">China’s Neighbors Feel Pain of Yuan Devaluation</a></p> <div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.wsjonline.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?a=5r_AW2v237A:RwEOSIDKSoo:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.wsjonline.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?a=5r_AW2v237A:RwEOSIDKSoo:F7zBnMyn0Lo"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?i=5r_AW2v237A:RwEOSIDKSoo:F7zBnMyn0Lo" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.wsjonline.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?a=5r_AW2v237A:RwEOSIDKSoo:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?i=5r_AW2v237A:RwEOSIDKSoo:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.wsjonline.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?a=5r_AW2v237A:RwEOSIDKSoo:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/wsj/economics/feed/~4/5r_AW2v237A" height="1" width="1" alt=""/> The Case for Making Art When the World Is on Fire | Amie McNee | TED https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CDs2d3dJtYk TED urn:uuid:3aa0ba79-c1f1-b8e5-5591-6756321e1319 Sun, 21 Sep 2025 05:20:04 +0000 When Is The Best Time To Call For An Air-con Servicing in Singapore http://onem4youth.blogspot.com/2017/01/when-is-best-time-to-call-for-air-con.html Simply Malaysia urn:uuid:af8a0896-b99e-211c-74ef-f944d52645a5 Wed, 18 Jan 2017 17:27:36 +0000 <p>Investing for an air-conditioner surely gives you the opportunity to relax in your home rather than going somewhere like the mall or a nearby coffee shop just for you to have a break from a very humid environment in Singapore.

Nonfarm payrolls rose a seasonally adjusted 215,000 in July and 231,000 the prior month. The initial employment situation report only shows net job gains or losses, while the Jolts report offers additional details on the total number of hires, openings and separations.</p> <p>Both reports are closely followed by officials at the <strong>Federal Reserve</strong>. Chairwoman <strong>Janet Yellen</strong> has said the rate of voluntary quitting is a key gauge of workers’ confidence in the economy. When the economy is stronger, workers are more likely to quit their jobs because it’s easier to find something elsewhere.</p> <p>In recent months, the number of quits has held fairly steady and a gap between job openings and hires has opened, a mismatch that suggests employers haven’t been able to find workers with the desired skills at the salary on offer.</p> <div class="mceTemp " style="text-align: left"> <dl class="wp-caption aligncenter caption-centered " style="width: 553px"> <dt class="wp-caption-dt"><img class="size-full wp-image-5" src="http://si.wsj.net/public/resources/images/BN-JV084_HIRES_G_20150812102015.jpg" alt="" width="553" height="369" /></dt> </dl> </div> <p>“While growth in job openings has cooled off in recent months, the key takeaway should be that the underlying health of the labor market continues to improve,” said <strong>Jeremy Schwartz,</strong> an associate at<strong> Credit Suisse</strong>. “The ratio of vacancies to unemployed workers continues to rise and is near precrisis peaks.”</p> <p>Still, businesses haven’t responded with significantly higher wages.

The threshold would be increased to $970, or $50,440 annually. That level is about the 40<sup>th</sup>percentile of weekly earnings for salaried workers.

On the other hand, workers who were previously happy to leave after 40 hours may grab extra hours thanks to the possibility of overtime pay.

The price of products sold at those stores was down 6% in June from a year earlier.</p> <p>In fact, since the recession ended in mid-2009, the price of electronics is down 33%, by far the largest decrease of any category tracked by the Commerce Department. Overall prices are up almost 10% from six years ago, as measured by the personal-consumption expenditure price index.</p> <p>The reasons for cheaper electronics are numerous. Technology tends to get cheaper over time, so one-time status symbols such as smartphones and flat-panel TVs are now everyday items.

That is the highest percentage ever, said Zillow, which has data going back to 1979.</p> <p>The number is significant in part because it shows rental burdens creeping past 30%, which economists consider an affordable proportion of income for people to pay on rent.<br /> Between 1995 and 2000, renters on average spent just over 24% of their incomes on rents.</p> <p>“Our research found that unaffordable rents are making it hard for people to save for a down payment and retirement, and that people whose rent is unaffordable are more likely to skip out on their own health care,” said<strong> Svenja Gudell</strong>, Zillow’s chief economist.</p> <p>Rental affordability worsened in 28 of the 35 metro areas covered by Zillow. It remained especially poor in the New York area and pricey West Coast cities. Los Angeles renters could expect to pay 49% of their incomes in rent. San Francisco wasn’t far behind, with renters paying 47% of their incomes on rent.</p> <p>Even in New York and northern New Jersey–long considered a pricey place to rent–affordability has worsened significantly. Renters in the city historically paid about 25% of their incomes on rent and now pay 41%.</p> <p>In Miami, a city that was long considered affordable but has been dramatically transformed by luxury condos, renters now pay 44.5% of their incomes on rent.</p> <p><a href="http://www.wsj.com/articles/rising-rents-outpace-wages-in-wide-swaths-of-the-u-s-1438117026">Renters have been becoming increasingly burdened</a> thanks to a combination of rents rising due to increased demand and limited supply and income levels remaining relatively flat. That has put a squeeze even on working, middle-class households.</p> <p>For some renters there may be a way out: Buy a house. Mortgages remain very affordable. Buyers should expect to pay about 15% of their incomes on housing.</p> <p>Still, economists say the rising rents are making it even more difficult for renters to make the transition to buying because it is difficult to save for a down payment. Stricter credit standards have also made it more challenging to get a mortgage.</p> <p>“If you can possibly come up with a down payment, then it’s a good time to buy a home and start putting your money toward a mortgage,” Ms. Gudell said.</p> <p><strong>Related reading:</strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.wsj.com/articles/rising-rents-outpace-wages-in-wide-swaths-of-the-u-s-1438117026">Rising Rents Outpace Wages in Wide Swaths of the U.S.</a></p> <p><a href="http://blogs.wsj.com/economics/2015/07/28/where-rents-are-eating-up-a-bigger-share-of-income/">Where Rents Are Eating Up a Bigger Share of Income</a></p> <p><a href="http://blogs.wsj.com/economics/2015/08/11/did-a-mortgage-fee-cut-help-borrowers-or-hurt-taxpayers/">Did the Mortgage-Fee Cut Help Borrowers?</a></p> <div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.wsjonline.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?a=O6yrlB8TZJE:pI-tZbDNVRY:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.wsjonline.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?a=O6yrlB8TZJE:pI-tZbDNVRY:F7zBnMyn0Lo"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?i=O6yrlB8TZJE:pI-tZbDNVRY:F7zBnMyn0Lo" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.wsjonline.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?a=O6yrlB8TZJE:pI-tZbDNVRY:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?i=O6yrlB8TZJE:pI-tZbDNVRY:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.wsjonline.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?a=O6yrlB8TZJE:pI-tZbDNVRY:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/wsj/economics/feed?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/wsj/economics/feed/~4/O6yrlB8TZJE" height="1" width="1" alt=""/> If you want to get people to do what you want, make it seem like it was their idea #TEDTalks https://www.youtube.com/shorts/4fJMAaSJLxQ TED urn:uuid:a27e04a0-c04c-3c6f-c62c-cbff1e7f3840 Sat, 27 Sep 2025 16:00:12 +0000 Benefits of Undergoing Dermal Filler http://onem4youth.blogspot.com/2016/11/benefits-of-undergoing-dermal-filler.html Simply Malaysia urn:uuid:eb8f8cc8-fe75-24c3-9ecc-aca2275fbd31 Tue, 29 Nov 2016 10:03:09 +0000 <p>Have you been wondering what dermal filler is and how it works?

That rate is still twice as high as those seen at the peak of the boom.</p> <p>As has been the case for years, states that use mainly a judicial foreclosure process, which means typical foreclosures must work their way through the court system, had a higher foreclosure inventory rate than nonjudicial states. Judicial states tend to give more protection and time to delinquent borrowers at the expense of a swift process.</p> <p>New Jersey maintained the highest percent of loans in foreclosure, at 7.31%, followed by New York at 5.31% and Florida at 4.24%.
