Post-Keynesian analysis has been confirmed again: The Fed cut rates before achieving the inflation target in order to raise banks' profits, which fell due to rising nonperforming loans. * US bank profits rose 2.3% to $66.8 billion in the 4th quarter of 2024:: www.reuters.com/business/fin...

Although inflation has been rising since October, the South Korean central bank has cut interest rates for the third time. Why? Because profits of banks are falling. Inflation targeting has nothing to do with inflation. asianbankingandfinance.net/news/south-k...

Poverty rates in Germany in 2023 after the structural reforms (Agenda 2010) introduced by the SPD and the Greens in 2005: 20.7% of children, 18.1% of the elderly, and 16.6% of the population are exposed to the risk of poverty. What they promised was the opposite. The result: AfD 20%.

The mainstream argument that lowering the corporate tax rate stimulates real investment does not hold in Germany, either. If the tax rate is high, firms have to invest more to reach their after-tax profit target, and if demand is weak, they invest their excess money in financial assets.

Die gegenwärtige Krise ist genau durch Austeritätspolitik angetrieben. Ohne eine Nachfragestimulierung durch Lohnerhöhung und öffentlichen Ausgaben ist es nicht möglich, die Krise zu überwinden. Aber Dr. Fuest macht immer noch dieselben Vorschläge. Wie lässt sich die Hegemonie der Dummheit erklären?

New Zealand’s central bank cut benchmark rates by 50 basis points to boost the economy: www.cnbc.com/2025/02/19/n... The economy cannot be boosted by interest rate cuts. The main motivation behind rate cuts is the falling bank profits due to the increase in nonperforming loans.

Mainstream theory: Firms finance their investments with funds accumulated in the stock markets. Since Milei and Simsek took office in 2023, the stock markets of Argentina and Turkey increased by 100%, yet both countries are in recession. Where are the investments financed by stocks?

Mainstream: Public spending raises inflation by printing money. Stocks fund real investments, and so employment rises. Post-Keynesian: Printing money causes inflation in stock markets, not in goods markets. Inflation in stock markets reduces real investments and employment. Which one explains Japan?

Why has Maduro not been appreciated like Milei? Did also Venezuela reduce inflation from 345000% in February 2019 down to 24% by way of cutting public spending, like Argentina—as argued by mainstream scholars? No, it has been running a budget deficit. How did Venezuela manage to curb inflation?+

Mainstream: Inflation is wage- and demand-driven. Post-Keynesian: Real wage growth triggering productivity growth is disinflationary. Inflation is caused by excess profits that employ cost increases as an excuse. Which explains the 10-year experiences of the UK and Germany?

Although the innovation index ranking indicates that a strong middle class to demand innovative products is required so that firms dare to undertake the risk of innovation, mainstream scholars assume that innovation is the only source of growth. +

Mainstream economists: Bond yields increase when public debt rises. Can they explain why bond yields of France and the Netherlands are the same and move closely despite the fact that public debt in France has increased whereas the Netherlands has decreased over the last 10 years?

Mainstream scholars cannot explain why Germany had (higher) public debt between 2013 and 2019 despite a budget surplus, nor can they explain why its foreign debt has been increasing despite the trade surplus. (Can they explain anything? 😅) Let us explain it based on the post-Keynesian theory:👇🏾

Mainstream: Governments borrow to finance budget deficits. The higher the debt, the higher the interest rates. Post-Keynesian: Governments borrow to drain the excess of reserve money caused by budget deficits and trade surpluses to set interest rates around the policy rate. Which one explains Japan?

Mainstream theory: Firms hire more workers and unemployment will decrease if wages are lowered. Post-Keynesian theory: Lowering wages reduces the demand for goods and hence for labor, increases unemployment. Let's see if unemployment fell the Greek government lowered the NOMINAL minimum wage in 2012

Eine neue Studie zeigt, dass die AfD bei Geringverdienern um bis zu 4 Prozent beliebter wird, wenn die Miete um 1 Euro pro Quadratmeter steigt. Bisher punktet die AfD vor allem abseits der Großstädte. Doch der Mietenwahnsinn droht zum urbanen Einfallstor für die Rechten zu werden.
