By John Mangun| BusinessMirror Verified Creative Destruction is economist Joseph Schumpeter’s masterpiece concept from “Capitalism, Socialism and Democracy” written in 1942. It is about how all forms of innovation blast away the relics to make room for shiny new ideas. We went from spinning records to streaming tracks, obliterating the brick-and-mortar mall music shops. Then smartphones came along, making digital cameras and MP3 players as relevant as a Kalesa outside of Intramuros. Nice but no longer necessary.
By John Mangun| BusinessMirror Verified High liquidity trading of innovative companies with strong investor protections boosts stock market participation. These are the factors that make for a vibrant stock market. Vibrant is exactly the term that should describe an economy’s stock market, full of activity, excitement and therefore growth. But what makes something truly vibrant is participation. The proof of the sisig is in the eating. The proof of a vibrant market is in the performance metrics.
By John Mangun| BusinessMirror Verified Back in high school, when learning a foreign language was compulsory, I realized I was not exactly a linguistic prodigy. But, I did pick up on something intriguing—words often sound like their meanings. A key concept of Rastafarian reasoning is that “word sound has power” and there is truth to it. Take “Schnell ”in German, meaning fast—its pronunciation is as quick as the word suggests. Or “gato” in Spanish, which sounds like a cat purring, perfect for the feline it represents.
