The Problem of Deflation in the Japanese Context
Kudláčková, Daniela ; Dočkal, Dalibor (advisor) ; Ježek, Tomáš (referee)
In the late 1990s deflation returned to the centre of interest of economists. One of the reasons was the recent japanese experience from the 1990s when deflation followed the long-lasting recession. The aim of the work is to find out if deflation was the main reason of the japanese economic recession or if it was only a symptom of some deeper problems. In the first part the paper presents possible definitions of deflation and compares theoretical approaches to this phenomenon -- the mainstream and austrian approaches. The second part focuses directly on the japanese economy. First, it explains historical and economic circumstances which are necessary for correct evaluation of the character of japanese deflation. Next, it offers an analysis of the deflation per se, tries to investigate its character and causes. On the basis of the deep knowledge of the development of japanese economy and data analysis, the paper considers deflation more likely to be a symptom of deeper economic problems than one of the main reasons of japanese recession.

Stock Price Bubbles
Li, Xiaokun ; Musílek, Petr (advisor) ; Veselý, Marek (referee)
Economic bubbles are playing an increasingly significant role in the current global economy. We believe these bubbles are to a certain extent dominating the real economy, and, therefore, research based on this specific economic phenomenon is becoming increasingly popular and important. The focus of this master's thesis is based upon analysis of stock price bubbles. This thesis contains author analyzed historical cases representative of stock price bubbles; summarizations of their traditional features; common factors causing their formation; and reasons leading to their bursting. Solutions to the dilemma of stock price bubbles are discussed in depth, and emphasis is placed upon clearly deciphering different theoretical approaches regarding this phenomenon-not only from the efficient market hypothesis viewpoint but also from the perspective of behavioral finance. The research contains testing and measuring methodologies of stock price bubbles, and the author's view concerning them is strongly supported by the results within the empirical data-testing chapter. Upon reading, one can expect to achieve a basic overview of this forefront science.
