Where Is $9 Trillion? The U.S. Federal Reserve can not account for $9 trillion in off-balance sheet transactions. Also, no one at the Federal Reserve has any idea what are the losses on its $2 trillion portfolio. On May 12, 2009, Inspector General Elizabeth Coleman could not explain the $1 trillion plus expansion of the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet since September 2008. While testifying before Congress, Coleman said the IG does not have jurisdiction to audit the Federal Reserve. If a U.S. business lost $9 trillion or created $9 trillion on their balance sheet, they would suffer severe penalties.

Must-Have Job Skills in 2013(2012-11-26)Even as employers remain cautious next year about every dollar spent on employees, they'll also want workers to show greater skills and results.For employees who want to get ahead, basic competency won't be enough.To win a promotion or land a job next year, experts say there are four must-have job skills: competency['kɑmpɪtənsi]n. 能力(等于competence);资格land a job找到工作articulate [ɑ:'tikjulət, ɑ:'t ikjuleit]vt. 清晰地发(音);明确有力地表达;用关节连接;使相互连贯vi.

2018/5/9When the concept of “Chimerica” first appeared in these pages 11 years ago, it was intended to encapsulate a new economic world order—one based on Chinese export-led growth and American overconsumption. That put the U.S., the sole global superpower, in an unlikely financial relationship with its most likely future rival. Now, after the non-meeting of minds between American and Chinese trade negotiators last week in Beijing, is that marriage finally on the rocks?当“Chimerica”这个概念在11年前首次出现在这些网页中时,它的目的是要概述一个新的世界经济秩序——一个基于中国出口导向型增长和美国过度消费的秩序。
这使得美国这个唯一的全球超级大国存在于与它最有可能的未来竞争对手之间的不太可能发生的金融关系。
现在,在美国和中国贸易谈判代表上周在北京举行非正式会议之后,这场婚姻终于要在破裂了吗?The foundation of Chimerica came in the years after China joined the World Trade Organization in 2001, integrating its massive labor force and savings surplus into the world economy. That pushed up global returns on capital by reducing labor costs while depressing the cost of capital.中国加入世界贸易组织之后的几年中,Chimerica的基础就是其庞大的劳动力和储蓄盈余融入世界经济。

【Top News】>Daughters more popular英媒:房价削中国重男风High property prices and economic development have begun to erode China's traditional preference for sons, leading to a rise in the number of Chinese parents who say they want a daughter, the Financial Times of London reported Tuesday. The conventional wisdom - that China is a land of unwanted girls - is being changed as urbanization erodes the advantage of having sons to work the fields and support parents in old age. Rising property prices are also driving the change because Chinese families must traditionally buy an apartment for a son before he marries. As a result, Internet chat groups have sprang up where women exchange advice on how to conceive girls.英国《金融时报》2日称,中国的高房价和经济发展开始削弱人们重男轻女的传统风气,越来越多的父母表示更喜欢女儿。

戴姆勒克莱斯勒姻缘已尽(本文作者为保罗?英格拉西亚(Paul Ingrassia),曾任《华尔街日报》驻底特律记者,目前担任道琼斯公司(Dow Jones)负责新闻策略的副总裁。
)戴姆勒-克莱斯勒(DaimlerChrysler)近日给它的克莱斯勒(Chrysler)分部挂上了一个大大的“待售”招牌。
现在看来,9年前被赞誉为开启了企业跨国经营新时代的这桩合并交易,眼下似乎有可能变成又一宗失败的超大规模并购案。
戴姆勒-奔驰公司(Daimler-Benz AG)和克莱斯勒公司(Chrysler Corp.)这次联姻究竟是被协同效应迷思催生出的昏招,还是一本被歪嘴和尚念走了样的好经?不论怎样,在未来许多年里它都将是汽车业以及商学院里引人争论的话题。
上述两种说法或许都没错:协同效应被高估了,而文化碰撞则使事情变得更糟。
两公司1998年合并后的次年,原克莱斯勒的一批高层管理人士便愤而离职,老牌的汽车业记者杰瑞?福林特(Jerry Flint)开玩笑说克莱斯勒被人占领了。
另一方面,虽然两公司合并是由戴姆勒-奔驰的领导层提议并主导的,但这些德国人却无时无刻不在担心,将太多的奔驰技术转让给克莱斯勒会有损于奔驰这个“德国的象征”之光辉。
戴姆勒-克莱斯勒声明,在决定其美国子公司的前途时不排除任何选择,同时宣布将在美国裁员13,000人并关闭一家汽车装配厂。
此举导致外界对克莱斯勒的前景一时间臆测纷纷。
它会被通用汽车(General Motors)收购吗?抑或是被一家外国汽车公司、甚至一家中国企业接手?它是否将步美国那些大型零部件生产商的后尘,被手握大量资金的私人资本运营公司收购?但有一点是十分清楚的,克莱斯勒的窘境不过是美国三大汽车巨头衰落史的最新一章,自2005年初以来,这一衰落进程大大加快了。
遥想1998年,戴姆勒为兼并克莱斯勒花了350多亿美元,后者当时在美国汽车市场的占有率约为 14%,它还有部分汽车销往国外。
考研英语阅读来源--华尔街日报的报道
华尔街日报:冷静思考的力量——考研阅读题源-The Power of Negative Thinking The holiday season poses a psychological conundrum. Its defining sentiment, of course, is joy -- yet the strenuous effort to be joyous seems to make many of us miserable. It's hard to be happy in overcrowded airport lounges or while you're trying to stay civil for days on end with relatives who stretch your patience.So to cope with the holidays, magazines and others are advising us to 'think positive' -- the same advice, in other words, that Norman Vincent Peale, author of 'The Power of Positive Thinking,' was dispensing six decades ago. (During holidays, Peale once suggested, you should make 'a deliberate effort to speak hopefully about everything.') Variations of Peale's positive philosophy run deep in American culture, not just in how we handle holidays and other social situations but in business, politics and beyond. Yet studies suggest that peppy affirmations designed to lift the user's mood through repetition and visualizing future success often achieve the opposite of their intended effect.Fortunately, both ancient philosophy and contemporary psychology point to an alternative: a counterintuitive approach that might be termed 'the negative path to happiness.' This approach helps to explain some puzzles, such as the fact that citizens of more economically insecure countries often report greater happiness than citizens of wealthier ones. Or that many successful businesspeople reject the idea of setting firm goals.One pioneer of the 'negative path' was the New York psychotherapist Albert Ellis, who died in 2007. He rediscovered a key insight of the Stoic philosophers of ancient Greece and Rome: that sometimes the best way to address an uncertain future is to focus not on the best-case scenario but on the worst.Seneca the Stoic was a radical on this matter. If you feared losing your wealth, he once advised, 'set aside a certain number of days, during which you shall be content with the scantiest and cheapest fare, with coarse and rough dress, saying to yourself the while: 'Is this the condition that I feared?' 'To overcome a fear of embarrassment, Ellis told me, he advised his clients to travel on the New York subway, speaking the names of stations out loud as they passed. I'm an easily embarrassed person, so in the interest of journalistic research, I took his advice, on the Central Line of the London Underground. It was agonizing. But my overblown fears were cut down to size: I wasn't verbally harangued or physically attacked. A few people looked at me strangely.Just thinking in sober detail about worst-case scenarios -- a technique the Stoics called 'the premeditation of evils' -- can help to sap the future of its anxiety-producing power. The psychologist Julie Norem estimates that about one-third of Americans instinctively use this strategy, which she terms 'defensive pessimism.' Positive thinking, by contrast, is the effort to convince yourself that things will turn out fine, which can reinforce the belief that it would be absolutely terrible if they didn't.In American corporations, perhaps the most widely accepted doctrine of the 'cult of positivity' is the importance of setting big, audacious goals for an organization, while employees are encouraged (or compelled) to set goals that are 'SMART' -- 'Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant and Timely.' (It is thought that the term was first used in a 1981 article by George T. Doran.)But the pro-goal consensus is starting to crumble. For one thing, rigid goals may encourage employees to cut ethical corners. In a study conducted by the management scholar Lisa and her colleagues, participants had to make words from a set of random letters, as in Scrabble. The experiment let them report their progress anonymously --and those given a specific target to reach lied far more frequently than those instructed merely to 'do your best.'Goals may even lead to underachievement. Many New York taxi drivers, one team of economists concluded, make less money in rainy weather than they could because they finish work as soon as they reach their mental target for what constitute a good day's earnings.Focusing on one goal at the expense of all other factors also can distort a corporate mission or an individual life, says Christopher Kayes, an associate professor of management at George Washington University in Washington, D.C. Prof. Kayes, who has studied the 'overpursuit' of goals, recalls a conversation with one executive who 'told me his goal had been to become a millionaire by the age of 40 and he'd done it. [But] he was also divorced, and had health problems, and his kids didn't talk to him anymore.' Behind our fixation on goals, Prof. Kayes's work suggests, is a deep unease with feelings of uncertainty.Research by Saras Sarasvathy, an associate professor of business administration at the University of Virginia, suggests that learning to accommodate feelings of uncertainty is not just the key to a more balanced life but often leads to prosperity as well. For one project, she interviewed 45 successful entrepreneurs, all of whom had taken at least one business public. Almost none embraced the idea of writing comprehensive business plans or conducting extensive market research.They practiced instead what Prof. Sarasvathy calls 'effectuation.' Rather than choosing a goal and then making a plan to achieve it, they took stock of the means and materials at their disposal, then imagined the possible ends. Effectuation also includes what she calls the 'affordable loss principle.' Instead of focusing on the possibility of spectacular rewards from a venture, ask how great the loss would be if it failed. If the potential loss seems tolerable, take the next step.The ultimate value of the 'negative path' may not be its role in facilitating upbeat emotions or even success. It is simply realism. The future really is uncertain, after all, and things really do go wrong as well as right. We are too often motivated by a craving to put an end to the inevitable surprises in our lives.This is especially true of the biggest 'negative' of all. Might we benefit from contemplating mortality more regularly than we do? As Steve Jobs famously declared, 'Remembering that you are going to die is the best way that I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.'1.By talking about the troubles of the holiday season, the author intends to____a.exemplify the psychological dilemmmas in daily life.b.illusatrate the profound influence of Peale’s work.c.Introduce the prevailing thinking mode of Americansd.Show the necessity of advocatiing positive thinking2.To which of the following proverbs would Albert Ellis agree?a.we cannot predict the future, but we can invent it.b.He that hopes no good fears no ill.c.The pessimist borrows trouble; the optimist lends encouragemenet.d.Self-trust is the first secret to success.3.The experiences of 45 entrepreneurs are mentioned mainly to demonstrate______a.the change in the management philosophy of American corporationsb.the necessity of setting big goals for an organizationc.the role of negative thinking in people’s success.d.the importance of “the affordable loss principle” in business.4.According to Paragraph , it is essential for managers to ______.a.establish challenging targetsb.conduct inclusive market analysisc.calculate potential revenues and rewardsd.consider possible risks and costs5.Paragraph implies that the biggest value of negative thinking is helping people_a.avoid being overwhelmed by low moodsb.get a clear picture of the way aheadc.succeed in eliminating the inevitable in life.d.accept the uncertainty of life.e.。

历史沿革
历史沿革
创立初期
1889年7月8日出版的《华尔街日报》 1882年,三位年轻的记者查尔斯·亨利·道(Charles Henry Dow)、 爱德华·琼斯(Edward Jones)和查尔斯 ·博格斯特莱斯(Charles Bergstresser) 创立了道琼斯公司。1889年, 随着业务的发展,公司职员增加到了50位,于是决定将原来的仅编写《致读者下午信》的小规模经营改变为出版 报纸,并且依照华尔街命名为《华尔街日报》。就这样,《华尔街日报》于1889年7月8日问世,它有4个版面, 当时每份的售价为两美分。
华尔街日报(1-10) 4 Data Show Euro-Zone,China Woes
Data Show Euro-Zone, China WoesEuro-zone business activity slid at its fastest pace in more than 3 years despite the improvement in Germany, a private-sector survey showed, raising fears that a deepening downturn in southern Europe will hamper efforts to solve the region’s debt crisis.The euro zone’s purchasing managers’index fell to 45.9 in September from 46.3 in August, according to data-services from Markit, well below economists’ forecasts. Index readings below 50 signal contraction in business output. The survey was conducted from Sept. 12-19, making it the first major report since the European Central Bank unveiled its new bond plan on September 6. Economic weakness extended beyond the Continent’s borders, an indication that European businesses can’t rely on fast growth abroad to offset problems at home.China’s PMI rose slightly to 47.8 from August’s final reading of 47.6, but the index has been in contraction territory for 11 straight months. China is still expected to expand above 7% this quarter, but that is far below the 10% rates of recent years.‘this number suggest China’s growth slowdown has stabilized,’ said Junwei Sun, an HSBS China analyst. ‘Still, it’s not a meaningful improvement. More likely it means that China’s economy has bottomed out.’Chinese gross domestic product decelerated to 7.6% in the second quarter from 8.1% in the first quarter of 2012, compared with year-earlier periods. Earlier in the year, a number of analysts had forecast growth would improve in the third quarter, figuring the government poured on stimulus measures, particularly infrastructure investments. But while the government has approved many infrastructure projects, it hasn’t widely opened the credit tap and economic growth hasn’t picked up appreciably.Activity in the euro zone shows no such sign of bottoming. GDP fell 0.7% at an annualized rate, in the second quarter and hasn’t expanded since the third quarter of last year. PMI figures over the summer suggest the contraction deepened this quarter to as much as 2% annualized, economists said.The survey highlights a risk for the euro zone. The ECB’s plan to purchase unlimited quantities of government bonds of struggling countries has brought some calm to financial markets. But crisis-hit countries such as Spain are also struggling with long recessions and deep-rooted economic problems, putting rising pressure on their state finances.There is little here to alter the view that the euro-zone recession looks set to deepen in the latter part of the year, said Ben May, economist at Capital Economics.In a separate report, the European Commission said consumer confidence fell to a 40-month low in September.Thursday’s PMI report also suggests the gap between the currency bloc’s two largest economies is widening. German business activity largely stabilized in September, suggesting any downturn will be brief. Germany’s economy has expanded by 3% or more in each of the past two years, and is expected to grow about 1% this year. French business, in contrast, plunged, with its PMI dropping nearly 4 points to 44.1, one of the steepest monthly fall on record. The two countries account for about half of the euro zone’s GDP and are the main financial backers of the region’s fiscal rescue funds.There wasn’t a single factor behind France’s slide, said Markit economist Jack Kennedy. Rather, it seems to be a real lack of demand, a lack of confidence, he said.We are on an island here still because we have political stability and financial stability, and that is still very important compared to the rest of Europe, said Stefan, owner of a company which makes equipment used in the building industry.建筑工业The grim PMI figures raise pressure on the ECB to do more to spur new activity. The bank’s president, Mario, has in the past cited purchasing-manager reports as a rational for cutting interest rates. Ken, economist at BNP, said he expects the ECB to lower rates inDecember, but said it could do so even sooner if the economic reports remain grim.But with interest rates already at record lows, there is little the ECB can do to stimulate growth with its traditional tools, economists say. Instead, ECB officials hope their bond-purchase and bank-leading programs ease private-sector borrowing in southern Europe, where credit for consumers and businesses is currently tighter then in Northern Europe thanks to the euro zone’s financial fragmentation. The ECB has said it won’t buy bonds unless countries first request aid from Europe’s rescue funds and agree to economic overhauls. Without economic growth, Spain and others will have difficulty stabilizing government-debt levels even at lower interest rates.It’s going to be a long hard slog back to sustained growth.slide(past and past participle slid )她悄悄地把瓶子放进口袋。

Young Adults' About-Face on SavingWhen it comes to saving, no age-group has experienced a bigger change of heart than young adults.Measures of saving rates among young adults under 35 show they're suddenly saving a whole lot more. According to Moody's Analytics, one measure, the four-quarter moving average of the saving rate of young adults -- which smoothes out volatility -- started dropping in the late 1990s and hit roughly -15% in 2006 -- before climbing higher during the 2008 global financial crisis and its economic aftermath to over 5%. It's now around 2% or 3%, as of the third quarter of 2012.No other age group has seen so violent a turn from borrowing to saving. ( See related article.) Sure, people between 35 and 44 also increased saving during the recession, but their about-face wasn't as dramatic. Young people now save roughly as much as people35 to 44 -- and nearly as much as those between 45 and 54.The trend suggests the recession may have made some young people more 'risk averse,' economists' jargon for less willing to take risks by, say, borrowing. It's likely that many young people are having a harder time getting credit, especially those with super- high student-loan burdens. But young adults are also seeing their incomes fall, and generally make less money than older people. So they may now -- post financial crisis and recession -- find themselves less able to service debt. That, in turn, may reduce their demand for credit.'Younger households were significantly dis-saving -- aggressively borrowing -- prior to the recession, but they are now saving at a healthy rate,' said Mark Zandi, economist at Moody's Analytics.'I think this clearly shows a significant increase in the risk aversion of younger households given the economic nightmare of the downturn and weak recovery,' he adds. 'It is unclear how long this heightened risk aversion will last, but I suspect the last few years will have an indelible impact on how younger households think about their finances.'∙economist [i'kɔnəmist]n. 经济学者;节俭的人∙significantly [sig'nifəkəntli]adv. 意味深长地;值得注目地∙burden ['bə:dən]n. 负担;责任;船的载货量; vt. 使负担;...∙nightmare ['naitmεə]n. 恶梦;梦魇般的经历; adj. 可怕的;噩...∙heighten ['haitən]vt. 提高;增高;加强;使更显著; vi. 升...∙recession [ri'seʃən]n. 衰退;不景气;后退;凹处∙bigger [bigə]adj. 更大的(big的比较级)∙aggressively [ə'gresivli]adv. 侵略地;攻击地;有闯劲地∙dramatic [drə'mætik,-kəl]adj. 戏剧的;引人注目的;激动人心的年轻人开始爱上存钱谈到存款,没有哪个年龄段的人比现在年轻的成年人在思想上经历了更大起伏。
