The Annual Bank of America Walter E. Hoadley Economic Forecast with Tom Campbell.

As we enter 2008 with a volatile stock market and a real estate crisis, what's essential to know about the economy for the year ahead? Former member of Congress and Haas Business School Dean Campbell helps us navigate uncertain economic waters in the annual forecast - The Commonwealth Club of California

Tom Campbell is the thirteenth dean of the Haas School of Business, a position he has held since August 2002. He formerly held positions of US Congressman, California State Senator, Stanford University law professor, and, recently, California's Director of Finance.

In December 2004, Dean Campbell took a one-year leave of absence from the school after being appointed by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger to be director of the California Department of Finance. He returned as dean of the Haas School in November 2005.

Prior to joining the Haas School in 2002, Dean Campbell was a law professor at Stanford University Law School for 19 years, beginning in 1983. He was elected five times to represent the Silicon Valley area of California in the United States Congress. Among his legislative achievements were authorship of the 1998 Food Bank Relief Act and the 2000 Peace Corps Reauthorization Act.

Campbell also was elected as a California state senator in 1993. During a two-year term, he earned ratings by the Sacramento-based "California Journal" as the most ethical state senator, the best overall senator and the state Senate's best problem solver.

Facciamo scendere l'Euro contro il Dollaro e l'economia ripartirà!!!!

Tutta l'Europa è piena di merci e di scorte invendute e l'unico modo di cambiar rotta è quella di svalutare l'euro. Qual'è, infatti, la convenienza di tenere il cambio così alto? Perché non farlo scendere a uno contro uno? Una vecchia, ma non sorpassata regola di economia ci insegnava che con la svalutazione della moneta in un momento di recessione si potevano trarre tanti i vantaggi:

maggiori esportazioni fino alla crescita.

@FireFox9032 People not from Europe, knowing nothing about Europe and insulting others. Yeah, it is just full of them, innit? You go on insulting, mate. Doesn't change anythin about reality. Good luck :-)

@Efteling4Ever Keep sucking that lollipop. Let us know when you locate your brain. .

@FireFox9032 Wont be necessary. We see it unfolding slowly. Dreaming is more for people like you haven't got a clue of what is happening in Europe.

[FireFox9032]

@Efteling4Ever Dreaming is free - dream on.

@FireFox9032 Wait what!? What are you talking about? The Eurozone is far from bankrupt, germany is not the only country that actually boosts the economy and the Euro will certainly not collapse. How do I know? Well I live in europe and am confronted with the economical state of my country (and surrounding ones) every day. It's through however that the countries in the south (Spain, Greece, Italy etc.) are on an economic breakdown, but the northern lands are doing fine, for now at least.
