Fed's Easy Money Policy during Alan Greenspan's presidency in Board of Governors (1987-2006)
Mašek, František ; Johnson, Zdenka (advisor) ; Tajovský, Ladislav (referee)
The main theme of the work is the Fed's monetary policy during the time, when chairman of the Board of Governors was Alan Greenspan. The greatest attention is aimed at the influence of Fed's expansive monetary policy on the so-called dot-com bubble and later mortgage crisis, which subsequently developer into the financial crisis. Through a thorough analysis of many scientific papers written by known economists and my own analysis and evalution I opine that the effect of expansionary monetary policy on the bubble in technological assets and mortgage crisis is rather minor. Fed subordinated all actions to achieve its monetary policy objectives, so criticism of its conducted monetary policy is essentially a critique of these objectives as such. I consider the emergence of new technologies and the so-called theory of feedback as the main cause of dot-com bubble. In the mortgage crisis and subsequent financial crisis as main determinants I consider reluctance of goverment officials strongly regulate activities of investment banks and other investment companies, moral hazard, failure of rating agencies, and federal support for home ownership coupled with the deregulation of the financial sector.

Pospíšil, Petr ; Johnson, Zdenka (advisor) ; Tajovský, Ladislav (referee)
This thesis focuses on monetary policy of the Federal Reserve System in United States in the 1990s. The emphasis during the analysis is put on recession of 1990-1991 and occasions which lead to market speculation, followed by US economy stagnation after its burst. I deeply analyzed the issue and contradictory opinions of renowned economists I conclude that American central bank's decisions during 1995-2000 contributed to the increase of stock market speculation. Nevertheless, these decisions were made in consistency with then crises of domestic and global economy with the aim of ensuring price stability and economic growth. Hence, my conclusion is that monetary policy of American central bank did not exactly cause the crisis, it was mainly investor's exuberance due to wave of new technologies emerging in the 1990s.
