"Given the importance of spending on the global economy consumers, decent improvement in October retail sales is largely favourable to hopes that GDP growth held well in the fourth quarter after healthy expansion in the second and third quarters."

Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, plan to rejuvenate the economy through the purchase of the US Federal Reserve 600 billion in bonds of the Treasury Board is under attack renewed - this time other Republican economists.

They argue that pumping more money into the economy might trigger inflation and weakening dollar trop.Les economists are their case in a letter to Bernanke and advertisements to run this week in the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times.

The binding of the Treasury Board buys "risk currency debasement and inflation and we think that they will achieve objective the Fed for the promotion of employment", economists wrote in his letter.

History: The Fed to influence the market capacity could be more

At the same time, their risk of criticism, forcing the Federal Reserve closer in the politics of Washington, where many people fear the independence of the Central Bank can be compromised.

Economists expressed doubts that program will help the Fed chief goal: reducing unemployment, now trapped at a rate higher 9.6%.And they think it will be injected new risks in the global economy.

Bernanke, a Republican who was top of President George w. Bush to take the Fed Economist in 2006 reported frustration still sluggish economy and unemployment élevé.Même if the recession is over, the unemployment rate has been stuck at 9.5 per cent or more than one year.

Announcing November 3 bond purchase program, the Federal Reserve said could lower long-term interest rates and economic growth more forte.Bernanke said he thought that low-interest loans lead to borrow and develop businesses. Cheaper mortgages allow more people to buy or refinance.

Stock prices would increase wealth and trust of individuals and businesses, has suggéré.Et expenditure increase lifting revenues, profits and economic growth.

But at a Summit of leaders global South Korea last week, the Germany China and other countries complained that plan the Fed would u.s. exporters an edge competitive price by flooding world markets $.

Emerging as the Thailand and the Indonesia fear fall Treasury yields will send money floods went in search of higher yields. These emerging markets could leave vulnerable to injury if investors decide more later extract and move their money elsewhere.

23 Economists letter represents a new front of the attack on the Fed-purchase plan.Economists who signed it include Douglas Holtz-Eakin, who served as Councillor political top 2008 Republican candidate John McCain.John Taylor, a senior official of the Department of the Treasury administration Bush; and Michael Boskin, Chief Economist at father Bush, President George H.W. Bush.

In the letter, they said Bernanke that the programme should be "reconsidered and abandoned."

The existence of the letter was reported earlier Monday by the Wall Street Journal.

In response to this, a spokesman for the Federal Reserve American said: "" the Federal Reserve does not believe that it can solve problems of the economy on its propres.Qui will take time and the combined efforts of several parties, including the Central Bank, Congress, administration, regulatory agencies and private sector.""

The Fed said it will regularly review program, whereby the Treasury will buy 600 billion dollars in obligations for eight months.The ECB left the door open to scaling back, or the limitation of the bond purchases if the economy achieved better results than expected - or buy more if seriously weakened the economy.

Rate of decline in prices of the Treasury Board and has increased for a third day Monday after Bernanke's letter came to light.Predatory reflects the speculation that the Fed could not achieve the full $ predictably 600 billion bond purchase program.The yield on the 10-year Treasury Board has jumped to 2.93 %.C'est at its highest level since July, before the start of the US Federal Reserve it take measures to stimulate the economy of refining.

Bernanke urges that the US Federal Reserve has the tools to absorb safely any extra money pumped into the economy and to avoid triggering a worrisome inflation.

Yet even in the US Federal Reserve us, some members expressed unease about the potential risks of the programme and doubts as to how it will help the economy.

Kevin Warsh, who was among the 10 Fed officials who voted for the $ 600 billion program last week nevertheless expressed doubts as to whether it could boost the economy .and he warned against "risks", including the potential to trigger excessive inflation by the suite.WARSH said that the Fed may have to review its programme if the dollar continued to fall or commodity prices continued to increase, raising inflation throughout the economy.

Critics inside and outside of the u.s. Federal Reserve also worry that the last intervention opens to criticism is printing money to pay the debt of the gouvernement.Et which, in turn, tarnishes the independence of the Federal Reserve Central Bank.

"This puts the right Fed mid-politics," Holtz-Eakin said in an interview. "The risk of politicization of the US Federal Reserve, running a higher inflation and increasing international tensions are that the benefits outweigh the costs.?

Rep Mike Pence, R - IND., a criticism of the Fed bond purchase programme says it plans to introduce a bill that would change the mission of the fed to concentrate solely on keeping inflation at cocher.Actuellement, the US Federal Reserve has a 'dual mandate' Congress: to maintain inflation and unemployment faible.PENCE said it concerns, among other things, the Federal Reserve program would result in a dangerous surge in inflation.

STOCKHOLM - A Cypriot British Economist and two American win 2010 Nobel Prize economy Monday that contributes to develop a theory to explain why many people can remain unemployed despite a large number of vacancies.

FED Board candidate Peter Diamond has been honoured with Dale Mortensen and Christopher Pissarides with the prize of 10 million Swedish kronor ($1.5 million) for their analysis of the barriers that prevent the buyers and sellers of pairing effectively markets.

Diamond - a former mentor to EDF current Chairman Ben Bernanke - analyzed the foundations of what is called the research markets, while Mortensen and expanded Pissarides theory and applied it on the labour market.

Life Inc.: Silver Nobel Prize hit by financial crisis

Their work, dating from the 1970s and 1980s, sheds light on why conventional markets, including the prix sight are fixed so that buyers and sellers always find each other and all resources are fully used, still applies to reality.

An example is the market of housing, where shoppers can struggle to find new homes even though there are a number of unsold properties.

Another is the market of the travail.parce job search takes time and resources, it creates friction in the labour market, help to explain why there are job and unemployment at the same time, the Royal Academy of sciences Sweden said.

"Winners models help us understand the ways in which unemployment, offers of employment and wages are affected by regulatory and economic policy," said the quote.

Their work resulted in the so-called model of Diamond-Mortensen-Pissarides, a tool commonly used to estimate how unemployment benefits, interest, rate the effectiveness of the agencies for employment and other factors can affect the labour market.

"A conclusion is that the more generous unemployment benefits give rise to higher unemployment and search time over", said the Academy.

Diamond, 70, is an economist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a social security authority, pensions and taxation.

President Barack Obama designated Diamond membership fédérale.Toutefois reserve, the Senate did not approve its appointment before legislators to congressional elections midterm campaign left.

Senate Republicans have objected to what they consider as limited diamond experience in dissecting the workings of the economy.

Bernanke was a Diamond to MIT.Quand Bernanke students in his doctoral thesis in 1979, one of the people he thanked Diamond to be generous in its time and read and discuss the work of Bernanke.

Diamond said returning to his home in Boston suburb of New Zealand when he discovered on the woman prix.Sa and pencils son Logan Airport he received a telephone call from a friend.

"Fortunately I was seated and was behind the wheel", said Diamond.

Pissarides, 62 years old professor at the London School of Economics, was the first winner of the Nobel Prize to Cypriot citizenship, spokesman for the Academy Erik Huss.

Speaking at his home in North London, Pissarides told the Associated Press announcement was "a complete surprise" even if his work had already contributed of thought in the form of both sides of the Atlantic.

For example, the new deal for young people, an initiative of the British Government is intended for young people 18-24 year-old on the labour market after long periods of unemployment, "much is based on our work," he said.

"One of the main things we found is that it is important to ensure that people don't stay unemployed too long so that they lose their printing for the labour market" Pissarides told journalists in London. "" ""The ways of dealing with it is not expensive training - it might be as simple as providing work experience.?

Mortensen, 71, is Professor of Economics at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois) it is currently visiting professor at the University of Aarhus, Denmark, where Academy reached him by telephone that he was having lunch with colleagues.

Mortensen said AP, was asked not to share the news until the announcement in Stockholm 30 minutes later.

"If I was sitting there at the table and I think that they know the smile on my face was arrivé.Tout world knows it's the day", he said.

Diamond has written an article in the early 1980s this unemployment allowance can lead to work "have become more selective in the jobs they accept" mieux.Travailleurs matches by .and, which makes for better matches and increases efficiency, employment aid he found.

He told a Senate Committee hearing appointment in July a central theme of his research was how the economy deals with risks which affect individuals and the economy-wide.

"In all my fields of central research I thought and wrote about the risks to the economy and markets and the Government can combine to improve function saving for individuals," he said at the hearing.

The price of economy is among the original prize created by the industrial Swedish Alfred Nobel in his 1895 will, but was created in 1968 by the Swedish Central Bank in its memory.

The Board of the economy was the last to announce the winners of 2010 Nobel committees.

Last week, Professor British Robert Edwards won the award of research that led to the first baby éprouvette born .Russie scientific Andre Geim medicine and Konstantin Novoselov shared the prize for Physics for the revolutionary experiments with GRAPHENE, the material stronger, better known to mankind.

The chemistry prize went to Richard Heck researchers and Ei-ichi Negishi and Akira Suzuki Japanese design techniques to bind together the carbon atoms.
