I think this was a great analogy. It helped me understand the benefits of pegging far better than my current textbook. I don't think it was goofy at all, it helped put this in terms I could relate to.
This video is part of my understanding spree of world and geo-politics as whole. How the world monetary systems work. Why the part of world is rich or poor? How money controls world? How a country runs its economy? How does inflations or deflation "Feels like" in day to day life. I think everybody should learn how the money controls their life.
I'm just trying to get the exchange rate for Kenya, Africa before I go there on a Missionary trip. So, what is $5.00 worth, or $100.00? Sounds like a simple question, but I can't find an answer here.
And then you wreck your economy by constricting your domestic money supply when being forced to do so to balance. The private sector in those economies also starts investing in the currency they are pegged to and require more reserves of said currency, one of which they do not control. Floating exchange is always better than a fixed exchange, just look at the economic health of fixed vs float nations.
Marketplace APM, can you tell that what's said at ~2:50-3:00 is pretty much what today's Brexit has to do with? Or can you say, one of the reasons why Brexit is happening is because of that? 🤔 #marketplaceapm #brexit
Thanks for your documentary on fanny Mae is a good lesson that inspire us to request for a training center in AFRICA to help people moving on the integre development and independantly speed their stability.
a wise country would only peg its currency when theres relative global stability, a good hegemonic power is needed for such stability to prevail or else currencies should never be pegged, if it is pegged they should fix it to gold or other precious metal or objects of value
x H$ = 1 F$ [H$=home currency, F$=foreign currency] * If H$ increases in value, i.e. x goes down --> central bank increases H$ supply by buying F$. * If H$ decreases in value, i.e. x goes up --> central bank decreases H$ supply by selling F$. Key: match increases with increase & decreases with decrease!
I usually like what he does, but this sailboat analogy is goofy. Had I not already known a little about pegging, I would have learned nothing from this video.
There are so many other people being thankful to him for using that analogy as it makes the concept easier to understand. He can never please everyone, but the fact that he tried to think of an appropriate analogy to make it easier on us, and not just give us the standard definition, is worthy of respect. He's an exemplary educator.
11 years later and this is still a really good explanation
13*
Over a decade later this video is still relevant and was very insightful. Thanks for sharing

This is actually a pretty solid analogy
thank you sir, that was really easy way to understand.
That was the dopest mic drop I've ever seen! :D
Best video that I've seen on the topic.
Spot the ex-Royal Marine....:-)
Brief, Smart & Amazing
I get it, but the biggest question is then, how did the lebanese pound lose 90% of its value when its always been pegged to the USD??
Fantastic explanation.
Super good explanation thank you
Remarkable explanation!
Nicely explained.
2 thumbs up good and reliable content From this host consistently videos recommended.
This video is part of my understanding spree of world and geo-politics as whole.
How the world monetary systems work.
Why the part of world is rich or poor?
How money controls world?
How a country runs its economy?
How does inflations or deflation "Feels like" in day to day life.
I think everybody should learn how the money controls their life.
Did you find answers to the above mentioned Qs?
Does that mean that pegging of one currency to anothet makes the two currencies equal in value to each other?
So why would a country peg its currency to gold instead of another currency?
I'm just trying to get the exchange rate for Kenya, Africa before I go there on a Missionary trip. So, what is $5.00 worth, or $100.00?
Sounds like a simple question, but I can't find an answer here.
So it means that they move at the same speed, does it mean they hold the same value? Equally?
Great analogy ! Thanks

This helped me so much. Thank you.
Thank you so much sir. That was very helpful !
Knowledge never expires. I come to understand crypto pegs.
I liked the analogy, however the real substance that I came in for, was not sufficient.
How much substance do you expect from 5-minute clip
Sir pls explain why the government of Sri Lanka holding USD low and advantages and disadvantages of it
Who controls the Flag Ship speed tho?
Hi Paddy. Love your presentation. But hearing you talk about badly needing a drink does leave me badly needing a drink! :)
That was sooper great man!! Kudos!
Yo how's this different from dirty floating?
Are currency pegs a form of currency manipulation?
I know it's not simple as it looks, but hey think the AU average of currencies should start here before rash decisions.
yoh thank you. this was so great. Easy to understand. Thanks a million
That last moment 😁😁
I thought "hero"

Great explanation, thanks m'dude
By George, I think I've got it
I just wish i could give this video a million likes😂
great analogy
Brilliant

Why do all videos end with needing a drink?
nice teaching
x H$ = 1 F$ [H$=home currency, F$=foreign currency]
* If H$ increases in value, i.e. x goes down --> central bank increases H$ supply by buying F$.
* If H$ decreases in value, i.e. x goes up --> central bank decreases H$ supply by selling F$.
Key: match increases with increase & decreases with decrease!
what’s with economists and their impressive whistling skills
great explanation, you got me to subscribe to your channel in just 1 minute, well done
great!
lmao love the outro
you save me, thank you so much
nice, culture appropriate example. classic :p
Killer sign-off phrase
Watching this after Saudi Arabia ditched the Petrodollar in June 2024.
Thank you, Sensei!!
love you my king
i like the anology
@DUBAIDREAMZ6
the currency mones up and down as the supply and demand for the currency varies (due to trade or capital flows)
I usually like what he does, but this sailboat analogy is goofy. Had I not already known a little about pegging, I would have learned nothing from this video.
lloyd coskey I agree, it is a bit goofy.
Marketplace APM very goofy

@@marketplaceAPM Yes, but it makes sense))
@@marketplaceAPM disagree it's very clear when you visualize it
I Thought te análoga nas fantastic to my understandment
Instead of spending most of the video talking about analogy, would be better to just give actual examples of how to control the supply of money.
Bad analogy
@DUBAIDREAMZ6 Demand and supply
stupid analogy that doesn't add any value
Maybe you don't really get it. Its okay half of people don't. That doesn't make you stupid, just average.
what a ridiculous video
i hate this example
Great explanation thank you
