things i think about while doing 19 homework assignments in one night (finals week baby)

i wonder if my coffee will taste good with honey

will i be able to get my assignments done if i load up on nyquil right now

if i drink coffee and take nyquil will i end up like that one kid on tumblr that time traveled through the school day

i have been working for 1 hour and i have 1 thing done, at this rate ill be done at noon tomorrow

why the fuck would i know what that means?

if i dont commit arson or murder in the next nine days ill give god $100

“hi callie!! how are you? where’s my blue boy? where are all the cats? we have five fucking cats in this house and- hi blue! hello pretty boy! aw, are you saying hi to your sister? are you being nice- no, blue, NO- goddamnit, i hate these fucking cats”

my prof gave me a 51/50 on an assignment with the comment “this is fine” im getting mixed signals

so my midterm was worth 30 points and i forgot to do it. my final is worth 30 extra credit points. so hypothetically, if i take my final, it wont matter that i forgot to take my midterm.

why the fuck would i know that.

FUCK YEAH

consider the following: shutting the fuck up

i have three major assignments due in 57 minutes im going to cry

i gave up after i finished my econ work. chemistry and algebra can suck my dick.

[jjacey-ing]

my major is economics. this is truly my childhood dream. partly because when i was a kid, i thought my dad was "cool" in business. the more I study now, the more t realize that i am quite happy to understand more about what i pursue. although i'm interested in it, i can't always understand all the knowledge I read or learn, i still struggle with Statistics and Probability, Macroeconomic, .. every day. even general grades are better than majors 😵 sometimes i don't understand the lesson very well, a moment of thought "in some parallel world, namjoon is teaching me statistics probability" again flashed in my head. =)))))))))))))))))

Unlocking the power of public investment to foster economic growth.

Progress toward achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) requires urgent and substantial scaling up of investment. While the estimates of the funding required to bridge these investment gaps in emerging market and developing economies (EMDEs) vary across studies, they generally amount to trillions of dollars per year. Thus, UNCTAD’s latest estimate of the aggregate investment gap faced by EMDEs to meet SDGs stands at a staggering $4 trillion per year.

Low-income countries (LICs) have particularly hefty investment needs because of their enormous infrastructure gaps in areas critical for sustainable development. For instance, in the past decade, less than one-third of the population in LICs had access to electricity and basic sanitation (figure 1.A).

These countries also face greater challenges in building resilience to climate change and meeting the green transition objectives. By some estimates, an average annual investment of as much as 8 percent of GDP through 2030 is needed to address these issues in LICs—significantly more than in other EMDEs (figure 1.B).  

Figure 1. Investment gaps in EMDEs

Sources: World Development Indicators (WDI), World Bank; World Bank (2022). Note: AEs = advanced economies; EMDEs = emerging market and developing economies; LICs = low-income countries. A. 2013-23 averages. Bars show percent of the population with access to electricity, minimally adequate drinking water, basic sanitation facilities, and the number of hospital beds available per 1,000 people. B. Estimates of the annual investment needs to build resilience to climate change and put countries on track to reduce emissions by 70 percent by 2050. Compounding these challenges, domestic investment—gross fixed capital formation—in EMDEs has been in a prolonged and broad-based slump over the past decade. Average annual growth of investment in EMDEs halved, decelerating from 10 percent per year in the 2000s to just 5 percent in the 2010s (figure 2).

Figure 2. Average annual investment growth

Sources: Feenstra et al. (2015); Haver Analytics; World Development Indicators (WDI), World Bank. Note: EMDEs = emerging market and developing economies. Investment growth averages are calculated using GDP weights at average 2010-19 prices and market exchange rates. Sample includes up to 103 economies, of which 68 are EMDEs.

Public investment can play an important role in mobilizing private capital and facilitating economic growth.

Public investment can be a powerful policy lever to help ignite growth. However, these positive effects are not guaranteed. They critically depend on conducive structural conditions. In particular, new empirical analysis suggests that the effects of public investment depend on government spending efficiency and availability of fiscal space—government’s budget resources that can be spent without jeopardizing a country’s fiscal sustainability and macroeconomic stability. While scaling up of public investment in EMDEs by one percent of GDP can increase output by up to 1.2 percent over five years, on average, in countries with ample fiscal space and efficient government spending the effect is much greater, reaching up to 1.6 percent over the same period (figure 3.A).

What’s more, public investment can play a pivotal role in catalyzing private investment and boosting productivity. In response to an increase in public investment by one percent of GDP, private investment in EMDEs can increase by up to 2.2 percent and total factor productivity by up to 0.8 percent over five years, on average (figure 3.B). This is particularly important for promoting long-run (potential) economic growth in EMDEs, which has slowed sharply and is expected to remain weak over the rest of this decade.

Figure 3. Macroeconomic effects of public investment in EMDEs

Sources: Adarov, Clements, and Jalles (forthcoming); World Bank. Note: Responses of macroeconomic variables to a public investment equivalent to one percent of GDP. Bars indicate peak responses at the 5-year horizon. A. Increase in the level of real GDP relative to the year before the shock, in percent. *** indicates statistical significance at the one-percent level. Large-fiscal space and small-fiscal space responses are based on local projections with the smooth transition function that uses the public-debt-to-GDP ratio as the conditioning variable. High-efficiency and low-efficiency samples are based on the top and bottom quartiles of the public infrastructure efficiency index (IMF 2021). B. Bars show increase in the level of private investment (gross fixed capital formation), potential output, and total factor productivity relative to the year before the shock, in percent. Whiskers indicate 90-percent confidence intervals.

Harnessing the benefits of public investment requires a comprehensive policy effort.

In EMDEs, especially in LICs, public investment efficiency tends to be substantially lower than in advanced economies (figure 4.A). With the government debt escalating to the levels above 60 percent of GDP over the last several years, their fiscal space has also decreased significantly (figure 4.B). To enable public investment and maximize its positive effects, EMDEs need to undertake wide-ranging policy reforms. While specific policy interventions depend on individual country circumstances, three overarching policy priorities are relevant for all EMDEs: expansion of fiscal space, efficiency of public investment, and enhanced global support. The latter is crucial for LICs with deep structural challenges, vast infrastructure gaps, limited fiscal resources and capacity to undertake the needed reforms on their own. Coordinated financial support and technical assistance are both needed to accelerate structural reforms in these countries and help them build robust foundations for sustainable economic growth and development. These policies are discussed in detail in Chapter 3 of the June 2024 Global Economic Prospects report.

Aggregates are computed as weighted averages with nominal GDP in U.S. dollars as weights. Data for the 2020s cover 2020-23. Sample includes up to 153 EMDEs, including 23 LICs.

Homework #1 - Macroeconomics

What in this chapter made you think about an economic concept differently than your previous beliefs?

I used to think when I heard about economics that is only focused on businesses and government regulations including goverment businesses. As I was reading, i started to understand that I actually see economy everyday of my life, more now than when I was younger. Now that I don’t depend of mom and dad I have to handle my own economy, I have to check every single prince and consider how much demand of goods would I need. I always thought economy was something bigger than just going to the market and buy a can of tomato sauce, but actually that I am truly thinking about it, economy is every aspect of our lives. Like the book said, even in every action that we do we are choosing not to do another action. For example, the time that I study macroeconomics is time that I can use it to work and get some extra money but I am not increasing my income because I choose to study to get a better job in the future. I never thought economy can be reflected on actions, I always think on the word “economy” as numbers and transactions. I remember my parents talking about decisions they needed to make “for the wellbeing of the house economy” I never thought they were talking about either save money for my college tuition or buy a better car. Economy is in every aspect of our lives since the macro of the government to the micro of a house.

2. What new questions do you have now about the US economy based on this chapter?

I always thought that US economy was an open economy with not too many regulations for business interactions, importations and exportations of the country. Now, I would like to know more about what those regulations are? And how many liberty the small and bigger businesses have to run their own business. Also, how government regulate the businesses if they want to export or import some items from other countries. I know USA have lot of interactions with for example China, which is their biggest challenge but also help them to continue with the trade-offs. Would be interesting to know more about the world economy.

Another interest point to talk about and what generates me questions is if the world bank has nothing to do with USA economy, and when the world bank acts to help USA economy if its need to.

I think a lot of Vulcans are like the “you’ve come to me with a problem, first instinct is to fix it” type to a more extreme, especially if the problem involves emotions

So when I imagine scenarios of like. a Vulcan going to the restroom during a fancy party and seeing an attractive Human crying in it, and it turns out they don’t see themselves as attractive because their date keeps complimenting everyone else a ton but only told them “nice outfit” and it got to them

And the Vulcan is just like “I have to fix this” and they start thinking of the problem like ‘Human thinks they’re unattractive > they aren’t so nothing can be done to their appearance to make them feel better > they feel unattractive because of their date > they need a better date’ and they just tell the Human “I am your date now, I will tell you how attractive you are without excessively complimenting others so that you feel inferior, so you will no longer have to experience this emotional turbulence”

And they just walk back to their table with a cute Human on their arm who looks like they were crying but is now beaming, getting together speedrun

Showing stock market tickets of boycotted companies and then celebrating a random 2-3% drop in value as a marker of a successful boycott is one of those things that online activists regularly do that rly just undermine their position of authoritativeness among anyone who's looked at the stock market more than twice
