[Quote No.34038] Need Area: Money > Invest
"[What happens at the top of a bull market as it starts to crash?] Those who had been riding the upward wave decide now is the time to get out. Those who thought the increase would be forever find their illusion destroyed abruptly, and they, also, respond to the newly revealed reality by selling or trying to sell. And thus the rule, supported by the experience of centuries: the speculative episode always ends not with a whimper but with a bang." - John Kenneth Galbraith

[Quote No.34120] Need Area: Money > Invest
"There can be few fields of human endeavor in which history counts for so little as in the world of finance. Past experience, to the extent that it is part of memory at all, is dimissed as the primative refuge of those who do not have the insight to appreciate the incredible wonders of the present. [This is usually a mistake as this attitude goes on to create irrational booms that then crash horribly. It is wise to remember what the highly successful investor, Sir John Templeton said, 'The four most dangerous words in investing are, 'It's different this time.']" - John Kenneth Galbraith

[Quote No.46375] Need Area: Money > Invest
"[Volatility usually increases at market tops and bottoms:] The temporary breaks in the market which preceded the crash were a serious trial for those who had declined fantasy. Early in 1928, in June, in December, and in February and March of 1929 [before the October crash that began the Great Depression] it seemed that the end had come. On various of these occasions the Times happily reported the return to reality. And then the market took flight again. Only a durable sense of doom could survive such discouragement. The time was coming when the optimists [who denied the top forming] would reap a rich harvest of discredit. But it has long since been forgotten that for many months those who resisted reassurance [and called the top early] were similarly, if less permanently, discredited." - John Kenneth Galbraith

"The time had come, as in all periods of speculation, when men sought not to be persuaded by the reality of things but to find excuses for escaping into the new world of fantasy [and believing that the share market could only go up - which is prelude to a parabolic blow off top and a massive crash which in this instance was the October, 1929, crash that began the Great Depression]." - John Kenneth Galbraith

[Quote No.64903] Need Area: Money > Invest
"[Market cycles: Markets rise like escalators but crash like elevators because of the gentle enticing of more to buy in followed eventually inevitably by the panic of most to get out as quickly as possible and at any price, with as much profit as possible or at least with as little loss as demanded...] There are those who are persuaded that some new price-enhancing circumstance is in control, and they expect the market to stay up and go up, perhaps indefinitely. Then there are those, superficially more astute and generally fewer in number, who perceive or believe themselves to perceive the speculative mood of the moment. They are in to ride the upward wave; their particular genius, they are convinced, will allow them to get out before the speculation runs its course. They will get the maximum reward from the increase as it continues; they will be out before the eventual fall. For built into this situation is the eventual and inevitable fall. Built in also is the circumstance that it cannot come gently or gradually. When it comes, it bears the grim face of disaster. That is because both of the groups of participants in the speculative situation are programmed for sudden efforts at escape." - John Kenneth Galbraith

[Quote No.67925] Need Area: Money > Invest
"[Market booms always end in a bust:] And so on to the moment of mass disillusion and the crash. This last, it will now be sufficiently evident, never comes gently. It is always accompanied by a desperate and largely unsuccessful effort to get out. The least important questions are the ones most emphasized. What triggered the crash?
This is not very important, for it is in the nature of a speculative boom that almost anything can collapse it. Any serious shock to confidence can cause sales by those speculators who have always hoped to get out before the final collapse, but after all possible gains from rising prices have been reaped. Their pessimism will infect those simpler souls who had thought the market might go up forever but who now will change their minds and sell." - John Kenneth Galbraith

[Quote No.69883] Need Area: Money > Invest
"Booms start with some tie-in to reality, some reason which justifies the increase in asset values, and then -- and this is the critical feature of speculative mood -- the market loses touch with reality [as wild hopes for easy life-changing riches fill the imagined future and greedy desire blinds cautious reason]. ...Once a boom is well started, it cannot be arrested. It can only be collapsed. ...[Remember] It is easy enough to burst a bubble. To incise it with a needle so that it subsides gradually is an operation of undoubted delicacy [beyond the ability of nearly all mortals].
" - John Kenneth Galbraith

"I do strongly urge that we be as cautious as ever in reposing too great confidence in men of great financial position [for example, the Chairman of the US Federal Reserve Bank, with the almost impossible US monetary policy problem of balancing the dueling, dual mandate of full employment and price stability]." - John Kenneth Galbraith

[Quote No.34039] Need Area: Money > General
"It is my guiding confession that I believe the greatest error in economics is in seeing the economy as a stable, immutable structure. [In fact just like the people who make up the economy, it is in an inconstant state of change. Therefore the best we can hope for is to try to constantly monitor what we consider important and realise that our knowledge and understanding will always be imperfect.]" - John Kenneth Galbraith

[Quote No.34041] Need Area: Money > General
"To the economist, embezzlement is the most interesting of crimes. Alone among the various forms of larceny it has a time parameter. Weeks, months, or even years may elapse between the commission of the crime and its discovery. (This is a period, incidentally, when the embezzler has his gain and the man who has been embezzled, oddly enough, feels no loss. There is a net increase in psychic wealth.) At any given time there exists an inventory of undiscovered embezzlement in - or more precisely, not in - the country's businesses and banks. This inventory - it should perhaps be called the bezzle - amounts at any moment to many millions of dollars. It also varies in size with the business cycle. In good times people are relaxed, trusting, and money is plentiful. But even though money is plentiful, there are always many people who need more. Under these circumstances the rate of embezzlement grows, the rate of discovery falls off, and the bezzle increases rapidly. In depression this is all reversed. Money is watched with a narrow, suspicious eye. The man who handles it is assumed to be dishonest until he proves himself otherwise. Audits are penetrating and meticulous. Commercial morality is enormously improved. The bezzle shrinks." - John Kenneth Galbraith
Famous economist.

[Quote No.34076] Need Area: Money > General
"Not much in the history of money supports a linear view of history, one in which the knowledge and experience from one epoch provide the intelligence for improved management in the next. Of those who give guidance on these matters history says even less. Out of the 2500 years of experience and 200 years of ardent study have come monetary systems that are as unsatisfactory as any in the peacetime past. In recent times conservatives have reacted adversely to inflation, though not with great enthusiasm to the measures for preventing it. Liberals have thought unemployment the greater affliction. In fact no economy can be successful which has either. Inflation causes discomfort and frustration for many. Unemployment causes acute suffering for a lesser number. There is no certain way of knowing which causes the most in the aggregate of pain. It was the prime lesson of the thirties that deflation and depression destroyed international order, caused each nation to try for its own salvation, indifferent to the damage that its efforts caused to neighbours. It has equally been the lesson of the late sixties and early seventies that inflation too destroys international order. Those who express or imply a preference between inflation and depression are making a fool's choice. Policy must always be against whichever one has." - John Kenneth Galbraith

[Quote No.44075] Need Area: Money > General
"The Federal Reserve System is treated by nearly all economists with reverence. On no matter is their instruction of the young in the subtlety and benignity of established institutions more admiring - or, in broad effect, more successful. Corporations are flawed by an instinct for monopoly. Trade unions interfere with the market, urge trade restrictions, resist new technology and thus obstruct progress, and they can fall victim to extortionists and racketeers. The regulatory agencies of the government are notably imperfect instruments of economic guidance. The Federal Reserve System is not totally above criticism. It makes many mistakes but these are always interesting errors of judgment. They are examined not critically but respectfully to discover why men of insight went wrong. That for such error anyone should be sacked or even seriously rebuked is, for economists, nearly unthinkable. This approval goes back to the origins and can be highly negligent of circumstance. The most widely read account of the genesis of the System tells glowingly of its birth in the closing weeks of 1913 when the Federal Reserve Act was passed by Congress and signed by President Wilson." - John Kenneth Galbraith
