Hyperinflation has been a doomsday scenario for modern economies throughout the last century. In all of these failed countries (Zimbabwe, Venezuela, Hungary, Yugoslavia, etc.) there have been uniform warning signs, the same signs that we are starting to see today in the U.S.

Yes this!! I agree completely. This entire money printing scare is not comparable to other hyperinflation events. The entire world had to print money to shore up their economies....because the entire world froze their economies during the pandemic. 👀 this should drastically offset any real lasting inflation and normalize over time. I'm grossly speculating but a one to one comparison to prior events is also wreckless.

Seems like the US can print as much money as it wants, with no consequences whatsoever, because the whole world use dollars. So even if Biden prints 5T next month, he can do it and the price of things will remain the same. As long as people around the world believe/use their imagination/have faith that the dollar is good. So the only thing preventing the economic collapse of the USA is the imagination of people worldwide that the dollar "has a lot of value and is easier to use".

The last part of the video is exactly what happened in my country Ecuador, we used to have our own money (Sucre) but then the stupid bankers broke our economy and we had to adopt the dollar as our official currency. Besides the lost of savings of many people and the huge migration that occurred during that time, the prices of the mortgage were so low that we ended up paying literally 10 cents monthly as a mortgage and that's why our parents could buy houses. As a kid I always wondered why you could pay a house with pocket money but I now understand the importance of having properties instead of cash

I had a teacher in middle school explain inflation the following way. Assume you’re an overworked student and you wish for more minutes in a day, so you can study more. The sun rises and falls at the same time, but you say to yourself, “each hour is now 120 minutes, rather than 60”. You therefore have twice as many minutes in 1 day, and therefore can get twice as much accomplished! … right?

We are a country of paradoxes now. There is an alternative to hyperinflation and that we are in a massive bubble where demand is driving future demand, which may be worse. The investments could explain everything and, unlike the past, safe and sound investments don't really exist in the market now. Food costs could be driven by the commodity market. As for the money being printed, what alternatives exist? And regarding the workers, why would a person want to go to work, possibly get sick (the pandemic isn't over and the disease variants are concerning) for minimum wage. I can see why people are unwilling to take these jobs. Even if the result is a slight loss, it may still be better than the reductions from the cost of working (transportation, dress, etc.)

Brazil went through periods of hyperinflation from 1989-1994 (> 1000% y/y at times). Before that, we had 50 years of high inflation (> 2 digits a year). All of our parents and grandparents have been through it. It's really hard for me to process how my parents managed to live with that kind of economy, it seems impossible that you can even survive that. Some really bizarre things happen to your daily life, like having to immediately spend everything you earn in the market and depositing all the rest in the bank so it won't lose all its value. Long queues in all markets and banks, entire rooms reserved for stocking food and supplies at home, dollar black markets. The main causes of hyperinflation in Brazil were the very high spending by the military government that ruled from 1964-1985 and the uncontrolled money printing after that. At one point, the minimum wage had to be readjusted every two weeks and even then it wasn't enough to keep up with inflation. Bank deposits would yield something like 40% a month, which also wasn't enough to retain all value. Many economic plans were tried in the late 80s and early 90s to solve the problem, none of which worked. Price freezes would make items vanish and new currencies would spiral into nothing in a matter of months. In 1990, the first democratically elected president after the military dictatorship literally took all the money people had in the bank, promising to return the nominal value in the next years. Of course, the nominal value was worthless after a few weeks so effectively most people lost all their savings. He was later impeached. The Real Plan was the one that actually saved the Brazilian economy. Economists recognized that chaotic money spending and printing, plus the psychological effects of inflation (inflation expectation generates inflation; they called it 'inertial inflation') were the causes of turmoil. The government adopted the Unit of Real Value (URV), which didn't serve as official currency initially but instead as a stable indicator of the value of things. Even though the official currency at the time (Cruzeiro) quickly inflated, the URV stayed the same. All prices had to be labeled in Cruzeiros + in URVs. This was really a psychological war against inflation, since people began noticing how prices were stable in URVs. Eventually, in 1994, the government announced the currency would change from Cruzeiro to Real, 1 Real being equal to 1 URV. Along with that, several measures like the prohibition of money printing to pay for public debt and laws of fiscal responsibility were adopted, so hyperinflation is structurally inhibited. From night to day, like magic, hyperinflation disappeared. We use the Real up to this day and it's a legitimate reserve of value (albeit not perfect).

college is not really a good invest in this regard, during hyperinflation the industries which require high skill are the ones usually stop working (because thats where people's start saving money on). Real estate (especially farmlands), foreign, more stable currencies, everyday neccesities, assets for production (for example farming equipment) and raw materials are the ones which keep their value the most. Or at least these assets were the ones during the biggest recorded hyperinflation, which happened in my country, Hungary after WW2. Well except the production equipments, because those ones are got stollen by the soviets and romanian occupier under "war reparation". So better buy a farmland in the Midwest or a coal mine which was closed down for some reason (or if you are not the one wanting to invest just put all the moneyyou borrowed into Swiss Frank, thats almost like gold, but since its a currency you can quickly turn into any other currency and buy stuff with it - while with gold, lets just say, in a hyperinflation not that many people actually want your gold right away...).

Usually yes, but not in this case. He played into the hype and went way overboard into speculation: 1. Don't use the MS1 chart to illustrate money printing when they changed the definition to include liquid deposits in March 2020. It completely skews the picture and is irresponsible data presentation. The fact that you say 1/3rd is newly printed while showing 2/3rds or 3/4th on the chart makes it seem like an intentional misrepresentation. (See the definition below the chart: fred.stlouisfed.org/series/M1SL) 2. The S&P has increased in value due to higher future earning expectations from make up spending, technological skewing (big tech firms in the S&P have benefitted (Amazon, Apple, etc.) while small manufacturing and hospitality firms outside the S&P 500 have been hit hardest), the discount rate significantly falling and raising the value for future firm make up spending earnings, and non-price sensitive retail investor savings increasing equity inflows. 3. Analyzing the S&P 500 as indicating high inflation expectations seems pointless when there is the TIPS (Treasury inflation protected securities) market which actually prices in inflation expectations of market participants. They are still below 2.5%, far from hyper inflation. 4. CPI hasn't significantly increased despite raw material price increases as (1.) firms are indicating they are limiting price pass through to consumers to prevent an impression of price gouging (see CFO survey), and (2.) certain items like oil and services have been heavily discounted during the pandemic. 5. The CPI food category has increased about 5 to 6% with some categories up 9%, and new housing build costs have notably increased due to raw material increases. Its not like we haven't seen inflation. 6. Unlike the hyper inflation examples noted, the U.S. is not printing "cash" and transferring all of it to individuals purchasing goods. Instead it is increasing bank reserves through asset purchases, which can be monetized via the spending of firms borrowing or purchases of newly issued government debt. So far this monetization has failed to materialize as high savings and capital regulations limit banks ability to lend out. As such, the FED can easily reduce these levels via open market operations if inflation picks up above 3% because there will not be a need to further finance the government. 7. There is no "doomsday" if the scenario is economy opens up, people spend pent up savings, inflation spikes, tax revenues also spike, less government debt is issued, and the FED sells treasuries on the open market to reduce reserves. The only way hyperinflation occurs is if the decrease in production is sustained for an extended period of time, or people lose faith in the U.S. dollar (an extremely remote scenario). 8. There has not been large growth in borrowing with respect to securities or mortgage investment (ex. refinancing) and banks have been tightening standards. If you look at home sale volumes you will notice 1. supply is extremely low due to delayed construction (new home sales and housing starts), decreased new listings, and less evictions (existing home sales), and 2. existing and new home sales hasn't massively spiked. Using higher real estate prices as evidence of individuals looking to hedge against inflation is kind of a joke.

Actually, IMO that's a bit of a canard. The fundamental principle of hedging is to bet against the market and there's a better way than borrowing which puts you at risk. Simply covert your assets into an alternative, anything at all that isn't going to follow the trend of what you're betting against. If you think another currency is going to do better, convert to that. If you think all currencies are going to crash, then buy something else like your gold bullion. But if you think that gold bullion won't sufficiently protect you, buy something else, lime maybe a farm out in the sticks where you can build your "end of the world" bomb shelter. In other words, just convert to whatever you think will retain value or appreciate to get you through Global Armageddon.

Instead, I think it os a relatively reasonable way to take advantage of low interest rates and moderately higher inflation to invest in America's future (especially after a good amount of compromising to get moderates on board). Pandemic or no pandemic, we have been needing a large infrastructure package for at least a decade now. With respect to the contents, I would prefer higher traditional infrastructure allotments and less for electric vehicles and rural broadband. My preference would be legislating charging station plug standardization at a national level and subsidizing their construction at exiting gas stations instead. For rural broadband, its just unreasonably expensive and doesn't have a clear ROI. With respect to the climate change preperation and prevention, workforce retraining, and business and manufacturing support (especially for chip production) I am in favor.

Well, he isn't wrong at all. Simply CPI and inflation calculation have no fcking correlation with real inflation for decades now. For example in my country Real estate prices grew by 300% in the last 6 years, one of the greatest in the whole world, Food and beverages are about 30% more expensive. Our inflation is about 3-4%/year. The salaries didn't go up anywhere near that much, so you can clearly see that something isn't right. It's just, that you include what you want in the CPI, and real estate prices, rent cost are generously left out or have a very low ratio in the basket. This is true to every country to some extent. Inflation simply doesn't measure the reality, it takes into account energy, and oil prices, food and clothing, which are generally decreasing in price or slowly increasing and are a very small percentage of your actual spending unless you are very poor and/or have real estate from when it was cheap 1-2 decades ago. CPI should include rent costs and electric devices more heavily, should include stock and precious metals, and other things if they actually wanted to monitor the real inflation.

The real question seems to me is what can the Fed do in such a situation. Recent attempts to raise interest rates in the US would suggest that the Fed has quite a bit of power to land this. It would be interesting to explore how a bad landing--most likely to happen--compares to the scenarios presented here. Raising interest rates--easy to do from 0%--would make US treasury assets more attractive, but would raise the cost of state borrowing and potentially harm the economy. How would that play out?

@@earnthis1 There are some limits to deficit spending. Not to say I know where they are but. However were very high compared to GDP. This video goes overboard, but there are definitely consequences to increasing the money supply. For instance most of these dollars ends up in the Stock Market because the Fed can't mop any of it up. Which creates more and more inequality.

@@earnthis1 I'm not an economist but I'm trying to use common sense to understand what you're saying. FIRST: What (if any) correlation exists b/w deficit spending and printing money? Inflation does increase money printing because you need more money to buy the same things (on the other hand, you spend less if your purchasing power stays the same / decreases). With the economy the way it is, people are still spending because of covid stimulus checks / unemployment checks, but they're spending on smaller ticket items (not necessarily real estate / car of the year / expensive vacation, etc...). So, 1) This is an opportunity for investors that have money to invest and people that are already too desperate for money to "ride the wave" - MORE INCOME INEQUALITY. 2) In this economy, there's an increase in price of goods / services requires MORE MONEY PRINTING, but a decrease in purchasing power / value of money. NOW ABOUT DEFICIT SPENDING: "Deficit spending is the amount by which spending exceeds revenue over a particular period of time, also called simply deficit, or budget deficit; the opposite of budget surplus" (ALSO: "Hyperinflation is an accelerated rate of price increase on goods / services"(50%/month)). MY QUESTIONS ARE: Why is it that instead of giving out "free" money (covid stimulus checks/unemployment checks) and shutting down businesses didn't government support businesses, create jobs? What do you think is gonna happen when the "free" money runs out? And how do you think deficit spending is a "successful" government strategy?

@@earnthis1 The only reason we can do all this deficit spending is that we artificially lowered the interest rates on t-bills which has already lead to two housing market collapses and is about to lead to a third. Deficit spending under normal circumstances is moronic. We rigged the system to make it work, and are suffering economic consequences for it. There is no safe store of value, it turned our entire financial system into a speculative market. The dollar will lose reserve currency status in the next decade and will be worthless soon after. You'll get the bigger picture someday, kid. The USA isn't invincible. You do get that, right? lol so dumb....

@@geddycurrent1174 what sanctions? I'm Venezuelan and we've been in hiperinflation since around 2013 thanks to the destruction of our industries and the funding of government expenses by printing inorganic money. Is has been till the last few years that sanctions against individual corrupt politicians here were placed due to the abhorrent amounts of money they've stolen these pasts 20 years. Just the daughter of Chavez is estimated to posses around 4 billon dollars originated form the state controlled oil industry, so these past few years they were sanctioned from spending it abroad and some of their personal accounts in Switzerland and Andorra have been frozen. We are still able to export our oil and other resources to other countries including the USA and China but due to the low oil prices and no industrial capacity public or private, they were left with no money to support their public expenses which are huge thanks to insane socialist economic policies. In 2019 the public sector was estimated to be around 75% of the GDP of the entire country and the crisis is even worst now with covid, but we don't now the exact numbers because the government has not released any official economic report since 2018 to not damage even more their credit rating. So you tell me what sanctions are you talking about? because all I've heard is a bunch of ignorant rhetoric about economic sanctions as if there was an actual embargo in place but they actually are aimed to government officials involved in corruption who right now have the monopoly of the oil industry in our country, which by the way they also destroyed.
