A 1968 agreement... froze the gold in the official reserves of individual nations... Under the agreement, two gold markets were established. One, the official gold market, would continue to price gold at thirty-five dollars an ounce in transactions between central banks and international monetary institutions; the other, the free market, would operate at supply and demand prices, with gold seeking its own level... The need for such an agreement came to an end in 1971...  3, record 1, English, - two%2Dtier%20gold%20system

An economically efficient price is one that would be charged in a perfectly competitive market. In such a market there are many buyers and many sellers who have full information about the price and cost of an item. They also know about possible substitutes and complementary products. Moreover, the prices of all products fully reflect all external costs and benefits.  1, record 2, English, - perfectly%20competitive%20market

Un prix efficient sur le plan économique est celui qui serait imputé dans un marché parfaitement concurrentiel. Dans un tel marché, il y a de nombreux acheteurs et vendeurs qui disposent de tous les renseignements sur le prix et le coût d'un article. Ils sont aussi familiers avec les produits de substitution et ceux qui sont complémentaires. De plus, les prix de tous les produits tiennent pleinement compte de l'ensemble des coûts externes et des avantages.  3, record 2, French, - march%C3%A9%20parfaitement%20libre

Even if all countries went on the same 16/1 ratio, any tendency for mines to pour out the two metals at substantially different rates would lead to the free market's bidding their price ratios to some figure other than 16/1; and in this case, by a form of what is known as Gresham's Law-"Cheap money drives out good"-the result would be that the cheapest metal in the market place would all be given to Treasuries of the different countries, and in effect the world be on a single standard again-that of the cheapest metal.  3, record 4, English, - Gresham%27s%20law

Según esta ley, si existen dos tipos diferentes de moneda en circulación, la "moneda mala" (la más débil) finalmente expulsará de la circulación a la buena. Esta ley fue formulada por el inglés Thomas Gresham (1519-1579), quien, como resultado de un estudio que realizó sobre los patrones y sistemas monetarios, llegó a la conclusión de que tiene validez histórica. La buena moneda es retirada de la circulación y atesorada por su valor intrínseco.  2, record 4, Spanish, - Ley%20de%20Gresham

It was bound to happen : gambling is heading for the information highway. In October Gaming Entertainment Television(GET), a cable-TV station based in Pittsburgh, is to start broadcasting horse-racing, poker and $1m-jackpot bingo, all of which will allow interactive gambling. At the same time, Sony's Game Show Channel, based in Los Angeles, is promising interactive versions of "Wheel of Fortune" and "The Price is Right". There is a market : 6m Americans play(by mailing in cards) the ordinary TV version of "The Price is Right".... interactivity is simply a wheeze to push up its ratings. In its first phase it will allow viewers to play for free(ie, without betting real money) and will offer small prizes to those who win. Eventually, however, it may permit real betting too.  1, record 8, English, - interactive%20gambling
