Hyperinflation
people keep throwing this word around that don’t even know what it means.


But no one can give any prediction on MuH hYpERiNfLaTiOn


Wake me up when the US$ spending power drops 10% a day for a week straight , not 10% in 3 years


The government released their core inflation rate a few days ago and year over year it was nearly 6%. In the real world for consumers it’s easily over 10% YOY.

Just to get an idea of how that affects the average consumer….if a person had $100k in savings, earning literally zilch due to ZIRP…they lost $10k in the past year on their $100k savings.

Buy bitcoin. Ditch the gold. Highest inflation in a generation and gold is DOWN.

I expect massive government overreaches. Look at what Lincoln did in the 1860, and what FDR did in the 1930s.

We won't see pictures like this from the great depression because they have EBT cards now.

We are, quite literally, experiencing price increases 10x LESS than a hyperinflationary environment. You hysterical figs are melting worse than Libs right now

My post does not refer to hyperinflation, I simply gave the current levels of inflation.

don’t try to bring facts to someone that’s bound and determined to melt… you will be downvoted to oblivion.



I stand by the fact most of the ones using the work ‘hyperinflation’ has never looked up the meaning and just running with their marching order talking points like little drones…. Eerily similar to the way prog filth operate which is sad to watch

after a year of the people at the top of traditional finance telling you inflation is transitory and being wrong month after month, it’s increasingly obvious they’ve got no hands on the wheel

QE and fiscal stimulus and supply chain disasters are gonna really degrade the power of the dollar and most fiat currencies

Gold is down NOW because the market is up. I guarantee that a market drop plus inflation will = gold skyrocketing.

Well the same could be said for anything.

Do people keep all their cash in hand or rely on electronic systems to use and retrieve it?

If the whole system goes down your cash is useless. A bullet would be more useful.

Jesus christ.

You guys are economically illiterate.

Hyperinflation is so far away from happening that it's not even worth discussing.

A period of higher inflation isn't the same thing as hyperinflation. There's almost no chance we get hyperinflation - central banks have so much ammunition against inflation that it's not going to be a permanent thing.

The more I look from the left to the right, everyone seems like they're a bunch of economic illiterates. From blaming Biden for high oil prices (while not understanding that the Saudis were driving down the price of oil) to this, people need to learn before they state stuff.

At least someone gets it.

It's the same with oil prices on here while misunderstanding why oil prices were so low under Trump.

Makes me want to

Does nobody here CFA bro?

So your premise of polishing this turd and pissing down our backs, saying it's raining is based on moderate views neither left or right?

One does not have to be a economic expert to see why Biden's regulations; and geo-politics kissing China's presumptive arse again compared to Trump's policies. Are causing economic turmoil the likes we haven't seen since Carter and the great depression.

Regulations of California's green deal are staggering goods to a near halt. The East Coast picked up on California's delays and are pulling their own weight in addition to the West Coasts.

Are you factoring in a wide open Southern border? The green regulations on appliances, freon, building? Are you factoring in the housing situation? People not able to catch up after covid? The contingent homes with 7 cash buying bids has to end some time.

Will Biden tear down the projects in cities and just give them all homes to eventually quit paying rent to banks/ Blackstone investment firms? Then we are back to square one with a full blown housing crisis.

We are in a downward spiral, and spending up to 8 trillion more in the green new deal of inane spending in more regulations will not make it better.

Do you not understand that stock markets soar during inflationary events? We have 2 real time examples right now:

Venezuela stock market - all time high
Turkey stock market - all time high

Sure they do, but that ammunition is a 100% chance of nuking the economy. Usually increasing rates is the battle against inflation. As soon as rates are even hinted at being raised, the market will have a massive sell off. If rates need to be raised to battle high inflation, markets get nuked. So our lovely leaders get to choose what they want, we have 3 options:

1- Continue with bad inflation
2- Raise rates a little bit, inflation remains high but doesn't get out of control, large correction in the market and slow future growth
3- Raise rates a lot to combat inflation, completely nuke the economy.
