In today’s video, you’re going to learn why food and other prices have gone up so dramatically this year

Then we’ll move into whether these price rises will continue or will they go back to normal

We’ll cover all this, as well as the big question everyone seems to be wrestling with atm: Inflation, Deflation (Steve Van Metre) or did one guest really say hyperinflation when he was interviewed on my channel (Peter Schiff)

So firstly, why did prices across the board go up so much this year?
We basically have 3 forces at play here:

1. Central banks but I’ll talk specifically about The Fed, have been buying $120B of assets every month via QE.

2. Supply chain breakdowns as well as natural disasters: We had draughts in some Countries & flooding in others. Certain countries were quicker to act than others buying up as many soybeans and wheat contracts as they could get their hands on for example, meaning that the cheaper crops were gone first, leaving available only the more expensive

3. Most of the things needed to produce ‘stuff’ is going up in price, again due to supply chain shortages, but also due to a lot of the new QE that’s being created all around the World. Staff costs are going up, raw materials are going up, fuel prices are going up, trucking and transportation…

Additionally, the Government stimulus, boosted the demand of all things by consumers, this at a time when we had supply chain issues causing a very simple equation of supply & demand which created transitory affects on inflation specific to those goods and services

The amount of goods and services hasn’t changed, only the flood of money has. So this is bad if you’re on a fixed wage

Without stimulus, so less money in circulation and more supply, prices will have to fall (eventually)

Velocity of money is good for the Government to collect more and more taxes, but it’s bad for inflation, and too fast a velocity, can create hyperinflation

They gave everyone stimulus, and people went out and spent it, but what this really did was create velocity of money in the economy. Pushing up inflation

Inflation then: Inflation is a tax. Inflation is created at the central bank level. It steals from savers and re-distributes the wealth

As I mentioned last year, each round of QE takes 12-18 months to get into the economy. You can’t create more currency and not expect prices to rise

We don’t have a normal economy anymore, we have a credit based economy. Where credit has to expand, or everything will crash to the ground. That’s unhealthy.

Remember that inflation also comes from the money being spent (velocity of money). But if people simply take the money home and put it under their mattress, that’s deflationary in nature

I think the Central banks will begin by tapering off QE, and I think if the last crisis is anything to go by, this will begin in perhaps Q1 to Q2 of 2022, and it will end at perhaps the end of 2022 or early 2023

I think they will hold off on raising interest rates for as long as possible, but eventually they will have to raise rates… and I believe they will do that, eventually

One of the tell tale signs to look out for if you’re worried about hyperinflation is the velocity of money. The faster the velocity, the more the inflation. And right now, it’s down to the floor…
