We show that, in a pure exchange smooth economy, a redistribution of endowments involving singular economies can be supported by a unique and continuous path of supporting equilibrium price vectors if this redistribution is the projection of a path on the equilibrium manifold transversal to the set of critical equilibria.
 
 
Keywords: Equilibrium manifold, regular equilibria, catastrophes, structural stability, smooth selection of prices.
