ECO 333 - Monetary Theory and PolicyThree Credits
Every Other Spring
This course is an analysis of the interaction between financial markets’ operation and behavior with that of the Federal Reserve and other central banks globally. Topics include the Fed’s role in combating recessions, unemployment, deflation and inflation. Particular emphasis is given to the economic effect of COVID-19 on business activity and the unprecedented rise in unemployment in the US and globally. Extensive use of Bloomberg in this class bridges the gap between theory and practice.
Prerequisite(s)/Restriction(s): ECO 303
