    William Pfaff

    We've been here before.
    We've been here before. It's a weekend reminiscent of the jittery past year. Investors are on edge as they gaze at political leaders across the Atlantic for assurances they will extend a last-minute bailout to a struggling European country and...

  4. Europe has no exit

    WASHINGTON -- For most Americans, Europe is out of sight and out of mind. We figure that the worst of its debt crisis has passed. Italy has a new government. To mute social unrest, some countries are slightly relaxing austerity policies. The European Central Bank (ECB) has stabilized the bond market for weak debtor countries. Despite problems, Europe is muddling through.

  5. MarksJarvis: Clashing slogans cloud investor strategies

    The calendar beckons investors to tread lightly through the stock market, according to an old saying.
    The calendar beckons investors to tread lightly through the stock market, according to an old saying. "Sell in May and go away" is a popular slogan among pundits because, over the years, stocks have sometimes suffered losses from May through October,...

  6. Cyprus bailout raises fears of tapping savings accounts in other troubled countries

    The prospect of losing money in a bank savings account was once considered unthinkable, but the possibility sent Americans into a panic in the 2008 financial crisis, and the threat recently surfaced anew.

  7. The end of macro magic

    WASHINGTON -- The International Monetary Fund recently held a conference that should concern most people despite its arcane subject -- "Rethinking Macro Policy II." Macroeconomics is the study of the entire economy, as opposed to the examination of individual markets ("microeconomics"). The question is how much "macro" policies can produce and protect prosperity. Before the 2008-09 financial crisis, there was great confidence that they could. Now, with 38 million unemployed in Europe and the United States -- and recoveries that are feeble or nonexistent -- macroeconomics is in disarray and disrepute.

  8. A right and proper death of the euro

    William Pfaff
    PARIS -- When the proposal was initially made for a common European currency, it seemed to this writer to be a good idea, with the flaw that it wouldn't work. Although inexpert in economics (being a product of the age of arithmetic), it struck me as an...

  9. The Improvisers

    WASHINGTON -- The bailout of Cyprus -- if it can be called that -- bore all the trappings of Europe's standard response to its economic crisis. The last-minute, melodramatic rescue was complex, contentious and controversial. Decisions were taken that, for now, prevent Cyprus' problems from spilling over to the 16 other countries that use the euro. But the same steps may make matters worse in the long run. No one who reads Neil Irwin's splendid new book, "The Alchemists: Three Central Bankers and a World on Fire," will be surprised.

  10. Betray your bank before your bank betrays you

    What's a Slovenian with several hundred thousand euros in the bank supposed to do? Spread it out among at least a few different banks, that's what. Or move the money out of the country, while it's still possible. Imagine what must be on the minds of...

  11. MarksJarvis: Stocks climb more than 13 percent in 2012 despite a lackluster economy

    You had perfectly good reasons for being cowardly about the stock market in 2012, but caution didn't serve you well.

  12. MarksJarvis: International news unsettling, but Americans remain confident

    It was a maybe, maybe not week. Investors didn't think they needed to worry about sequestration; then they thought maybe they should. The outcome of Italy's elections looked foreboding for Europe's stability, but then investors thought, with time,...
