    This article talks about the Oil equilibrium and it relates it to supply, demand, opportunity cost and other external factors that affect the equilibrium.

SPCC: Cu Market Reaching Equilibrium, Peru,Regional, Mining, news - 0 views

  •  
    This is a great article about the copper market, and how it is attempting to reach equilibrium. They had been stuck in a period of oversupply, and there had even been rumors of productions cuts to compensate for the oversupply; however, all such rumors have been dismissed as consumption is on the rise and they expect that equilibrium will soon be met.

FoodBev.com | News | Wine supplies nearing demand equilibrium, says Rabobank - 0 views

  •  
    This article talks about how wine is reaching a equilibrium between it's supply and demand. Global demand for wine is at a low right now, but the price of grapes is increasing. This means companies can't afford to supply the same amount of wine, which actually means they reach a balance with the decreased demand. This is a good representation of how a decrease in demand isn't always bad.

ASIANOW | The Asiaweek 1000 | After the Boom - 0 views

  • Asia's go-go growth spurred the spread of countless factories, fed by expectations of exponential growth in demand.
  • Now that the boom has gone bust, Asia is suffering from capacity indigestion of monumental proportions.
  • Overcapacity in cement is so severe that unless plants are closed, the region may not see supply-demand equilibrium for at least seven years. China alone can produce nearly 110 million tons a year. Consumption in the region has fallen dramatically
  •  
    This article explained the relationship between supply and demand. The industrial demand in Asia had been increasing for so long that the factories kept adding supply. When the demand dramatically fall, Asia suffered capacity indigestion. The excess supply was too severe  that the equilibrium may not happen for 7 years. The demand could not keep up with supply.

Automakers are learning to reach equilibrium - 0 views

  •  
    European car makers are learning to reduce the supply of cars they are making. The economy has been on the decline for the past few years and over the last four years, America has learned to cope. They've lessened their supply to meet the demand and they've increased supply in the cars that there was actual demand for. Now, its time for European car makers to learn the same lesson. Instead of simply relying on past models, European car makers have to adapt and learn that the past may not be reliable anymore. Thus, they have to change their business model in order to be successful.

Paul Ryan Isn't an Inflation Nutter - 1 views

  •  
    This article mainly discusses the economic policies of Representative Paul Ryan involving his concerns that continuing budget deficits will eventually lead to high rates of inflation. The author evaluates a theory regarding the importance of government policy on the price level of the economy. The view states that there is only one point of equilibrium in the macroeconomy where Aggregate Supply will equal Aggregate Demand, and the changing policies of the government play a crucial role in meeting that equilibrium by affecting not only the value of business assets but also people's expectations.

Housing Market Moving Towards Equilibrium - 0 views

  •  
    According to statistics of various communities in Naples, Florida, the housing market of that area is beginning to take a change. Many areas are beginning to shift in the amounts of real estate available versus the demand for this housing. Due to the concepts of the price mechanism, when less housing is available than what is demanded the price of real estate will increase, signalling what is possibly the recovery of the economy.
  •  
    The housing market really is a complicated idea. It seems that the more governments foreclose houses, the more the are hurting the economy. This makes it very hard to better the housing market.
