Totocaputo said that he did not believe it was a matter of dishonesty, but he maintained that 90 percent of economists did not understand how the market worked. According to what he wrote, many conceived it as an Excel spreadsheet and assumed that it could be bought at any moment; he added that last year some had used that reasoning to assert that they were finally being taken seriously because they ended up buying. The author maintained that purchases are made when the market sells and that buying when the market demands can raise prices and reduce the quantity obtained. He pointed out that this effect was especially relevant in shallow markets, such as the dollar market in Argentina, and due to the involvement of the BCRA. He also stated that academic economists were employed in banks to write but not to manage investments and warned against following their advice. #Economía #Mercados #Inversión (translated)

Totocaputo maintained that 90 percent of economists did not understand how the market worked and viewed it as a spreadsheet where anything could be bought at any time. He criticized the argument that, he said, had been used last year to assert that they had finally been listened to because they ended up buying. He pointed out that one buys when the market is a seller and that buying when it is a buyer only raises prices and allows one to acquire less and less. He also stated that academic economists often wrote in banks but did not manage investments, and warned that their advice should not be followed. #Economía #Mercados #Inversiones (translated)

"If Pedro Sánchez could form a government, the constitutional system, unity, and the Monarchy, as we have known it until now, would come to an end," Aznar warned during a talk with EL MUNDO journalist Juanma Lamet as part of the cycle '1936: The War We All Lost,' corresponding to the XI edition of Letras in Seville, coordinated by the academic of the Language, writer, and columnist for this newspaper Arturo Pérez-Reverte, and journalist Jesús Vigorra. #Aznar #Elecciones2026 #Monarquía (translated)

“É preciso defender a ciência, porque a ciência tem a ver com a racionalidade.

Questionar minha excelência como acadêmico por ter trabalhos aceitos em uma conferência brasileira, sendo ela extremamente relevante mundialmente, mostra sua falta de noção e de respeito. Ainda assim, seguem alguns aceites de artigos solo em conferências INTERNACIONAIS. Infelizmente, nem sempre a experiência se torna sabedoria. #Acadêmico #Conferência #Pesquisa
