The second meaning of the word "market" is used in formal economic models. Here the equations that explain the demand and supply of a commodity such as money are sometimes grouped together. Although money is traded in all markets, the reasons for supplying and holding money are thought to be specific enough to warrant separate equations. This is an abstract way to think of the money market.
New financial assets are traded in primary markets. Financial assets that are resold are traded in secondary markets. Finns that specialize in trading either new or reissued financial assets are called primary and secondary dealers, respectively. Both new and reissued securities are traded in many markets, such as the U. S money market. The New York Stock Exchange, however, is a secondary market.
A financial market may be thought of as an ordinary market in which traders may buy or sell particular financial commodities.
A.Right.
B.Wrong.
C.Doesn't say.
The oil price was given another push up this week when Iraq suspended oil exports. Strengthening economic growth, at the same time as winter grips the northern hemisphere, could push the price higher still in the short term.
Yet there are good reasons to expect the economic consequences now to be less severe than in the 1970s. In most countries, the cost of crude oil now accounts for a smaller share of the price of petrol than it did in the 1970s. In Europe, taxes account for up to four fifths of the retail price, so even quite big changes in the price of crude have a more muted effect on pump prices than in the past.
Rich economies are also less dependent on oil than they were, and so less sensitive to swings in the oil price. Energy conservation, a shift to other fuels and a decline in the importance of heavy, energy intensive industries have reduced oil consumption. Software, consultancy and mobile telephones use far less oil than steel or car production. For each dollar of GDP(in constant prices) rich economies now use nearly 50% less oil than in 1973. The OECD estimates in its latest Economic Outlook that, if oil prices averaged $22 a barrel for a full year, compared with $13 in 1998, this would increase the oil import bill in rich economies by only 0.25 % -0.5 % of GDP. That is less than one quarter of the income loss in 1974 or 1980. On the other hand, oil importing emerging economies -- to which heavy industry has shifted -- have become more energy intensive, and so could be more seriously squeezed.
One more reason not to lose sleep over the rise in oil prices is that, unlike the rises in the 1970s, it has not occurred against the background of general commodity price inflation and global excess demand. A sizable portion of the world is only just emerging from economic decline. The Economist's commodity price index is broadly unchanging from a year ago. In 1973 commodity prices jumped by 70% and in 1979 by almost 30%.
The main reason for the latest rise of oil price is ______.
A.global inflation
B.reduction in supply
C.fast growth in economy
D.Iraq's suspension of exports

In most countries the cost of crude oil now accounts for a smaller share of the price of petrol than it did in the 1970s. In Europe, taxes account for up to four-fifths of the retail price, so even quite big changes in the price of crude have a more muted effect on pump prices than in the past.
