Citizens slam government for hiking petrol prices weekly - 0 views

  •  
    Prices of petroleum products are rising which has led to an increase in the prices of daily-use items. Pakistan's citizens are demanding their government to review its pricing mechanism. Instead of having a weekly review, consumers want the government to switch back to the monthly price review. This article shows an imbalance in the price rationing of petroleum.

    Not only does this article fit well with the topic of price mechanisms, but it also is a great example of the effects that products can have on an entire economy. Petroleum is not just used to fuel cars, it is used to manufacture all sorts of other products. That aside, every company, one way or another, is affected by the price of petroleum, and when the price goes up, the manufacturers and retailers pass the increase in transportation costs on to the consumer, who indirectly pays for the high price of petroleum.

    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.

CIL coal price pooling not acceptable to Bengal government - 0 views

  •  
    This really short article, i think, represents the real world problems of price marketing on a global scale. There is a bit of tension between two country's, West Benegal and India, over the price of coal. India is not cooperating with their usual partner to lower the price, and Benegal thinks that the importing cost is insanely high, thus we have a bit of a problem.
