Uma excepção rara e notável


Depois do meu próprio recente post sobre um artigo de Greenspan não resisti a colocar um link para este post que glosa com a uma frase proferida por Greenspan:

Today’s competitive markets, whether we seek to recognise it or not, are driven by an international version of Adam Smith’s “invisible hand” that is unredeemably opaque. With notably rare exceptions (2008, for example), the global “invisible hand” has created relatively stable exchange rates, interest rates, prices, and wage rates.
Recomendo que não percam a caixa de comentários, com (algumas) excelentes variações sobre o tema, sendo que a minha preferida é:

Pompeii has always been a safe place to raise a family, except on those notably rare exceptions when Vesuvius erupts.
PS: Quem ainda não estiver cansado pode ver outra lista de "variações" aqui.
