Goldilocks economy 金髮女孩經濟

Goldilocks economy
繁：金髮女孩經濟
简：金发女孩经济

讀者如果有興趣，不妨Google一下，最近財經版被引用得最多的一個名詞，叫金髮女孩經濟（Goldilocks economy）。該經濟學名詞源於一個經典的西方童話故事《金髮女孩和三隻熊》，故事講一個叫Goldilocks的女孩在森林中迷了路，誤闖一個三熊之家（熊爸爸、媽媽及熊BB），她吃了牠們三碗麥片粥，第一碗太熱、第二碗太冷，第三碗的溫度剛剛好。經濟學家將金髮女孩的故事，比喻作一個不太冷又未過熱，即剛剛好的經濟狀態；應用在股票市場，則是比喻股市的估值尚未升至過份偏高，企業盈利的基本面在持續改善的狀態。

In a speech last month, MAS managing director Ravi Menon said Singapore has been able to tap the strength in the global electronics sector, demonstrating that it remains competitive despite rising concerns in this regard.
