Hey guys, I have to write my term paper about an article (that has to relate directly towards macro.), if youve looked at any good ones recently, and think they'd work, post um up.
I have a few, but I dont really like them at all, maybe someone has something better
More specifically-
The topic of the paper must be related to Macroeconomic issues covered in Econ
this semester. Remember that Macroeconomics deals with the economy as a whole so do not choose a topic restricted to an individual, a specific fi rm or sector of the economy.
Pick the topic that you like the most. Some examples are: monetary policy, taxes,
government expenditure, exchange rate, etc.
The article you are using must have been published after August 22th, 2012. NO AR-
TICLE published before that will be accepted (the paper will receive zero points)
Look at reputable news sources (such as the Wall Street Journal, The Economist,
New York Times, etc) for articles
Look for articles that contain facts (such as the Federal Reserve raised interest
rates). The articles may discuss causes, consequences, etc of these facts. This
will make it much easier for you to do an economic analysis of the topic. You can
then write about what economic theory says about the issue, what happened in
the real world, and how the article handles the topic.
