Welcome to Mike Bradley's
homepage. The title, "Bradley's Market," explains what I do
for a living (economist, that most unjustly maligned of callings) and
where I learned my first hard lessons in market economics (my family's
"Mom and Pop store").
Like all of us, this homepage
will always be "under construction" and a "work in progress."
Eventually, it will include links to all of my courses (with course
syllabi, answers to problem sets and previous exams) as well as some
more general economics links that should be of interest to those who
either sought out or stumbled upon this homepage.
COURSE LINKS
The
following links are to web pages for courses that I teach on a regular
basis at UMBC.
SOME
OTHER
INTERESTING
LINKS
Here are
some links to sources that should be helpful and interesting to
economics students
and others who wandered into this website.
 Covers
a broad range of economics and business topics issues.
 Unsurpassed international news coverage, much
of which is economic.
 A premier British news
weekly magazine. Orientation is generally Conservative and
conservative. Free access is good but limited. Complete
access requires paid subscription.
 British
financial
daily,
comparable to Wall Street Journal.
Progressive American weekly magazine. Covers a very broad range
of issues, some of which are economic in nature or have significant
economic components.
"All the news that's fit to print."
 Excellent business and financial
coverage. Excellent writing.
Political/ideological
commentary
is
conservative.
 .
- SOME IMPORTANT SOURCES OF
ECONOMIC DATA AND OTHER INFORMATION
Bureau of Economic Analysis.
This unit in the U.S. Department of Commerce compiles and
analyzes a vast array of business and economic information.
Bureau of Labor Statistics.
The
official
source of data on employment, wages and prices.
President's
Council
of
Economic Advisers. The annual Economic Report of
the President
contains a good summary of current economic policies being promoted by
the
President and an excellent statistical appendix.
U.S. Census Bureau.
All you ever wanted to know about the U.S. population and
more. Excellent data on economic activity and on household
income.
Federal Reserve Board
of Governors.
Lots of monetary and financial data from the economically most powerful
unit
in the federal government. (For purists: I know--the Federal Reserve
isn't
REALLY a government agency.)
The
White House.
The most useful economic link is to the Economic Statistics Briefing
Room.
