I really believe that you cannot use the stock market as a proxy for the economy.
I used to go to Vegas and play the horses, and then I realised how ridiculous that was. There is no winning in gambling, but there is on the stock market.
Having seen a non-market economy, I suddenly understood much better what I liked about a market economy.
I don't give a damn about the stock market. But I do care about jobs.
If the market is left to sort matters out, social injustice will be heightened and suffering in the community will grow with the neglect the market fosters.
I always found the appeal to the market gods a bit odd. Why would the market fix mistakes instead of aggravating them?
Tell me, what do they do for us in Bulgaria? Do they fix the prices? Or is there some kind of a free market?
Even from the very beginning, I didn't put any money in the stock market.
There can never be such a thing as a free market, because it is human nature to cheat, monopolize, and buy off others so as to corner the market.
Well, there's no question that the law passed in 1996 was flawed. It deregulated the wholesale market, meaning the price that the utilities had to pay energy companies for power, but not the retail market.
Let me say again that the relationship is asymmetrical: there's no democracy without a market economy, but you can have a market economy without democracy.
Technology investment drove growth in the 1990s, both directly and by fueling a rising stock market that led to increased consumer spending.
Today's stock market actually hates technology, as shown by all-time low price/earnings ratios for major public technology companies.
You've got to figure out how you're going to come in and significantly impact and redefine a market such that you become a market share leader in it.
We're interested in the mass-merchandising of anything. If there was a market in mass-produced portable nuclear weapons, we'd market them too
What’s interesting is that most free-marketers don’t seem to want a free market at all, but a status quo market. The market in the United States is anything but free. If it were, big business would have to survive without corporate welfare to the...
A blanket could be used to keep an iceberg warm. People are so selfish and want to stop global warming. Well, if you were a snowman, and were cold all the time, wouldn’t you welcome a little summer into your winter?
We have started something called the Corporate Services Corps. Now, it was modeled after the Peace Corps from long ago, the 1960s. And the idea was in this modern day and age, how do you get IBM'ers around the world to be global citizens? You know, g...
I write because if I don’t let it out of my system, I will die with guilt.
Our love was so hot it could melt the polar ice caps. In fact, my passion’s probably to blame for global warming.
