With money and a futures market the economy converges to the allocation where costly transactions are foregone and marginal products and marginal utilities equated. However, neither institution may be formed, or money may be formed without a futures market. Moreover, stochastic output technologies raise the possibility of persistent recession and depression and of valuable government insurance of the futures market."^^; "1979-06"; "2019-10-21T23:33:47.066051453+00:00"^^; "https://doi.org/10.21034/sr.43"; ; "https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/"; "2020-10-28T21:44:27.043528279+00:00"^^; "https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/"; "Research Paper"; "102"; "Staff report (Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis.
