Goldilocks, of fairy tale fame <br />is now no longer <br />only associated <br />with having strayed <br />into the neat home <br />of the three bears. <br /> <br />Our versatile banker friends <br />those over-imaginative <br />investment geniuses, <br />always on the prowl, <br />to uncover a new theory, <br />have coined a fresh one <br />“The Goldilocks Economy”. <br /> <br />It has nothing to do <br />with either her golden locks <br />or with the three bears. <br />Surprisingly, it refers <br />to the near perfect <br />temperature of <br />baby bear’s porridge. <br />Not too hot and not too cold <br />Our luminaries have hit <br />upon a new inflation measure <br /> <br />A Goldilocks Economy <br />is a benign one <br />where inflation <br />moves in a narrow band <br />Of two and three fourths percent, <br />Dodging fears of deflation <br />and ofcourse hyper-inflation too <br />Put simply - It is as ideal <br />as the temperature <br />Of the porridge! !<br /><br />Sandra Martyres<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/goldilocks-3/
