[532] Of lovely economics
I have nothing much to say. All I wanted to do by posting this entry is to highlight an article entitled Economics Often a Bundle of Contradictions.
WASHINGTON - Buying binges by consumers and companies can power the economy yet catapult the trade deficit. A weaker dollar can help U.S. manufacturers but hurt American shoppers. Rising home prices can give a homeowner a sense of wealth and make a house hunter feel cash-strapped. These are just a few of the apparent contradictions of economics.
Now, you know what I learn in macroeconomics. Well, part of it.

p/s - after a string of bad performance and news, Ajax seems to have find it form in the last two matches.

Today, Ajax drilled 4 goals behind second placed AZ Alkmaar. AZ earlier this week won its away match against Villareal and making them closer the UEFA semifinal.

With Ajax's win, the team has returned to the third place, with one point behind AZ. However, Ajax has played an extra game compared to both AZ and Feyenoord. Feyenoord, currently fourth in the Eredivisie, will play Ajax next week. Ajax need to at least draw with Feyenoord in order to stay third and keep a sensible gap with AZ. Else, no Champions' League for us.

PSV is first and has possibly secured the Dutch crown.

pp/s - w00t! Somebody from Bloomberg actually replied to my job application. We'll see what's going to happen from here.
