But why would anyone go by "economic classics"?

Tim 

That is an interesting observation, which raises interesting
methodological points. Now assume that prior to the Euro (Mark) the Mark
(Germany) was let us say   equivalent to 4. 6 units in a country x 's
currecy.

Today the country X's currency  we can assume is 1: 9.8 units .

Going by economic classics , it will imply that country x will have many
economic advantages against Germany Euro Mark. E. g. lower production
cost, including wages, higher inflation rates i,e. from investment,
capital inflow etc.

However interesting so, is that in the hard financial markets there has
not been so great a paradigm shift- which in itself is paradox.  I still
would like to under this phenomenon.
