Search Results - Market economy

Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

A market economy is a realized social system based on the division of labour in which the prices of goods and services are determined in a free price system set by supply and demand.[1] This is often contrasted with a planned economy, in which a central government determines the price of goods and services using a fixed price system. Market economies are contrasted with mixed economy where the price system is not entirely free but under some government control that is not extensive enough to constitute a planned economy. In the real world, market economies do not exist in pure form, as societies and governments regulate them to varying degrees rather than allow self-regulation by market forces.[2][3] The term free-market economy is sometimes used synonymously with market economy,[4] but, as Ludwig Erhard once pointed out, this does not preclude an economy from having socialist attributes opposed to a laissez-faire system.[5]

Different perspectives exist as to how strong a role the government should have in both guiding the economy and addressing the inequalities the market produces. For example, there is no universal agreement on issues such as central banking, and welfare. However, most economists oppose protectionist tariffs.[6]

The term market economy is not identical to capitalism where a corporation hires workers as a labour commodity to produce material wealth and boost shareholder profits.[7] Market mechanisms have been utilized in a handful of socialist states, such as Yugoslavia and even Cuba to a very limited extent. The People's Republic of China is run by the Communist Party, but its economy involves considerable private enterprise and market forces in both private and public sectors. It is also possible to envision an economic system based on independent producers, cooperative, democratic worker ownership and market allocation of final goods and services; the labour-managed market economy is one of several proposed forms of market socialism.[8]

Although no country has ever had within its border an economy in which all markets were absolutely free, the term typically is not used in an absolute sense. Many states which are said to have a market economy have a high level of market freedom, even if it is less than some parts of the population would prefer. Thus, almost all economies in the world today are mixed economies with varying degrees of free market and planned economy traits. For example, in the United States there are more market economy traits than in the Western European countries.[9]

1. IRA Diversification With A Self Directed IRA
November 18, 2008

Due to the nervousness inherent in financial markets, diversification is a critical part of a balanced portfolio for long-term success. A well-balanced portfolio is susceptible to collapse only if the entire economy (including the dollar) takes a nose-dive all at once. In such an unlikely case, you might be better served to have stockpiles of gold, food, salt, and weapons in your basement. However a well-diversified portfolio is a reliable insurance policy against market volatility.True diversification is not just a healthy mix of stocks and bonds. It is also commodities, real estate, timberla... (read more)

2. End of Earnings Season A Non-Event
November 18, 2008

Stocks highlighted include Apollo Group (APOL), Compass Minerals (CMP), Church & Dwight (CHD) and Mantech International (MANT). Third-quarter earnings season is nearing a close. Normally, the end of the earnings season removes a catalyst for the markets; however, I don't think that this is the case right now. The faltering economy, the ongoing financial crisis and the uncertainty about 2009 are causing the market's volatility. The end of earnings season is pretty much a non-event. Results from the third-quarter were not good. Earnings for the S&P 500 are on pace to fall 18%. Approxim... (read more)

4. How Consolidation of Debt Can Improve Your Credit Score
November 17, 2008

With the way the economy is today, it is no wonder more people are looking into consolidation of debt. It is easy to see that debt can pile up with the way the stock market has been going as well as the amount of foreclosures where homes are concerned. One of the first bills that many people put off is credit card debt. It is hard for many people to make ends meet, so they need to pay the bills that are necessary rather then those that are just bills such as credit cards. Consolidation of debt can be a great relief to many as it can help to free up money so that they can make ends meet... (read more)

5. Surviving the Economy with Affiliate Marketing - Part I
November 18, 2008

When you are one of hundreds of marketers trying to sell the same product to the same customers, you had better have a plan to get your fair share of the market (or more!).

That is just the nature of Internet marketing. Maybe you do have a long list of paying customers. That's excellent! It means you have already won several of the affiliate marketing rounds.

November 14, 2008

For the second month in a row, the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) has drastically reduced interest rates. This latest reduction brings the base rate to 5.25%.

Business activities have slowed as asset values have plunged and fuel prices have skyrocketed. The housing market should benefit from this decreased interest rate. In recent months, the prices of homes in Australia have been falling. Figures released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics show ... (read more)
