Rose vs. Lyons: Distinguished Faculty Go
Head-to-Head Over the Dollar

"The US Dollar: Will the bottom fall out?"

Come meet our new acting Dean Rich Lyons…and see him in action!

Spurious accusations and vague insults will fly when Haas Professors
Andy Rose and Dean Rich Lyons tackle the topic,
"The US Dollar: Will the bottom fall out?"

Rose on the No side: "Anybody peddling the view of major crisis in the dollar is reading too much sensational press. Simple efficient markets logic tells us that if the dollar were headed for a big fall, and everybody knew it, it would fall right away. It's a little sad that Professor Lyons doesn't seem to be able to apply the skills and knowledge that all economists and Haas graduates possess."

Lyons on the Yes side: "My colleague Professor Rose is the quintessential ivory-tower academic. That I've known for a long time now. What stuns me--I mean really stuns me--is that as an international economist, he fails to appreciate that we operate in a global economy. That global economy is producing powerful forces for a dollar fall. I look forward to a little consciousness-raising at the debate."
