  • A one-minute video explanation of inflation. No matter what it is you currently do for a living, at the very least knowing a thing or two about inflation is a must.
    Otherwise, you risk losing purchasing power without even realizing why and most importantly, without being in a good position to figure out what to do about it.

    To be honest, the market crash and high inflation have me extremely anxious and concerned about my retirement prospects. I've been experiencing losses for a while now, and despite the silver linings others point out, I'm feeling overwhelmed. However, I'm trying to keep things in perspective and remind myself that investing is a long-term game. I need to focus on the bigger picture and ride out the storm, rather than getting caught up in short-term market fluctuations.

      With retirement just three years away, I'm struggling to focus on the long-term when my immediate concerns are pressing. Despite having a solid portfolio with reputable companies and a substantial investment, my profits have plateaued. I'm worried that the current recession and market instability are limiting my opportunities to take calculated risks and generate returns. Are there still ways to navigate this challenging landscape and make profitable investments, or should I reassess my strategy?

    I see the rising interest rate as a very big problem, as more investors will definitely pull out more money from the Stock market. This might have worked when I was still invest-ing with a couple thousand dollars, but it is more difficult now to decide whether to pull out more than $365k from my port-folio. I know some inves-tors still make that despite the strong bear market. In wish I could pull that feat

      Hello ONE;
      Thanks for your short video.
      I suggest the channel Money & Macro for more info - a professional & non-ideological at that.
      Your video doesn't include the definition of what inflation is (businesses & other owners of basic costs of living continually raising their prices....for some reason). It gives one possible cause.
      This is my understanding:
      In today's world & historically there are only three causes that i know of why businesses (e.g. Carpenters) would raise their prices: input costs going up, or profiteering (& not enough competition which allows it), or bc some wealthy payers pay more, and lack of competitors in the market mean they can all raise prices or expect non wealthy to pay similar.
      The latter usually is from a currency Soverign Govt being able to pay almost anything.
      Logically, Too large money supply would only mean inflation (businesses raising costs) if it was used as reasoning for raising one's own profits, since it wouldnt increase input costs.
      What causes these? Aren't they all a form of either scarcity or greed or if a rich entity pays too much (without increasing supply of good or service to serve poorer people)?

    Cash will only lose value because of inflation so its better to protect your investment by doing the right option. You see, lots of people nowadays choose gold to protect them from such catastrophe. The gold market has the record of staying high for a long period of time. Be it any country of the world, the gold markets touches the peak and continues to stay there for a long period of time which is why people consider it to be the best way of preserving their wealth.

      This video sucked. Heres a simple version. Its all about purchasing power. The cost of goods are expected to increase 3% annually. This means that the $1.00 water today will cost $1.03 next year. If you are making 50k this year, due to that 3% increase in good cost or (inflation) your need to make at least roughly 52k next year to purchase the same things you can purchase this year.

    @econ4every1 5 років тому +97

    For those looking for an explanation of inflation, you should be more confused about what inflation is then before you got here.
    Let me see if I can help.
    Inflation is when the demand for goods and services exceeds the supply of them.
    Basically, when things run short (become scarce) assuming demand for them remains about the same, the price will increase.
    However, creating money does not _cause_ inflation.
    Think about it like this. If the demand for Cheetos rises by 10%, does Frito Lay increase the price, or create more Cheetos? Hopefully, you realize that they will just increase output. But if you think they would raise the price, imagine going to the store and seeing the prices of snack chips right around $3.50, but Cheetos are $4. Which one would you buy?
    Most people would swap to something else, meaning that Cheetos will find their sales and market share decrease and their competition will increase.
    So when would prices rise?
    That depends.
    What caused the shortage?
    Let's say that demand has stayed roughly the same, but the supply of raw materials needed to make snack chips increase. Maybe a drought cut the supply of potatoes, corn and wheat. This would cause disruption in the supply chain and costs would rise.
    The other kind is much less common kind of inflation is called demand pull. This supply stays about the same and there is a sudden unforeseen demand and as a result, supply runs short.
    I say it's much less common because if snack companies are able to predict future increases in demand, they will overproduce and create inventories.
    Think about Christmas, if it was true that increase demand causes prices to rise, why is everything on sale on Christmas a time when about 20-30% of all sales happen?
    Even in cases where demand outstrips supply and prices rise, those increases usually lead to increased incentives to supply the industry that's running short.
    Case in point. Oil/ Gas prices. Froma bout 2005-2013 gas prices were elevated. That incentivized new energy opportunities and as a result of that increase in demand North America is not the oil capital of the world.
    In the end, just as a glass can be 1/2 full or 1/2 empty, inflation can usually be looked at more than one way. It's important that you see and understand the whole picture before making judgments.

      @arabbkenny 4 роки тому +7

      Creating money does not cause inflation, it is inflation. The definition of inflation used to be "expansion of the money supply". I might cause prices to rise but maybe it just causes prices not to fall.
      The definition has since been changed because it makes it clear that governments and central banks are to blame for dishonestly stealing our purchasing power

    • @OneMinuteEconomics
      @OneMinuteEconomics  7 років тому +12

      Right now, the inflation rate is determined based on the CPI (consumer price index):
      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consumer_price_index
      However, not all economists agree that this is the best approach.
      Still, here's how you do it based on the CPI:
      1) Find out what the CPI has been for the year you have in mind as well as for the year you want to compare it against (for example 2010 compared to 2000)
      2) Subtract the older CPI from the most recent one (if it was 100 in 2000 and 150 in 2010, the result will be 150 - 100 = 50)
      3) Divide the result from #2 by the initial CPI, multiply by 100 and add the "%" symbol at the end (50/100*100=50%)
      ... the result is that the CPI increased by 50% from 2000 to 2010 :)

      @Pierre Gleize Traditional investments return profits because the capital funding allowed a successful business to form or expand. Bitcoin is not a business, and it's not a success either; bitcoin is not even a proper currency, because it's ludicrously unstable.
      Everything on the market is subject to speculation, and investing is itself an endless ponzi scheme that businesses and brokers use to feed off of everyone else. Bitcoin is no different. Decentralization is just a different kind of organization, the same way anarchy is a form of government.
      Of course it would be nice if someone's idle dollars were put to work helping build successful businesses that do good in the world, but that is becoming exceedingly rare in a market of increasingly profit-seeking businesses either creating or living on the misfortunes of consumers.
      Twenty years from now, there will be no need for bitcoin to exist. Either the world will have erupted into chaos, or we will have overcome the seldom few reasons people ever thought something like bitcoin needed to be created.
      For all intents and purposes, bitcoin is just a worse version of something we already have.
      Specifically regarding my previous comment: I was calling you out on being wrong. No one can tell the future, and the 'market' is not subject to your idea of why anything is happening. I read my Money app every day for news, and it's bullshit article after bullshit article after bullshit article because correlation does not equal causation, especially in an arbitrary fiat ecosystem of misguided humans and robotraders. Nobody knows why anything is happening, but everyone thinks they do.
      I recommend not being one of those people. Hype and hope do not pay the bills. Success in your 'field' is literally someone else's loss, akin to theft. Exchanges are zero-sum. You do not create anything, and therefore there can be no value in it.
      Fractional-reserve banking is a sad joke, but all currency systems are made up. The real question is whether full-reserve banking is even more sad, and therefore worse.

    What happens when we enter a post scarcity society? Does inflation just cease, or does the economy as a whole disappear because half of pricing assumes scarcity? I know it's essentially theoretical, but I think we're just a few technological advancements from reaching that point, even without needing to leave earth. For as much as food prices are rising there essentially is no scarcity in food anymore. Just the US, Mexico, and Canada produce enough to feed everyone on the planet. The main issues are storage and distribution. We just need better refrigeration and transport technologies to completely eliminate food scarcity, and with reliable and cheap space travel all scarcity just disappears, after all there are a billion billion galaxies that each have a billion billion stars that each have multiple planets around them, we won't be starved for resources once we can access that.

    Inflation Explained in One Minute (Transcrição)
    1 - Let’s assume your monthly income were to somehow double. Congratulations! You can now, for the most part, afford to buy two times more stuff. But what if the monthly income of everyone else were to also double?
    2 - Well, in that case, you’d no longer be able to buy 2 times more stuff, because since everyone else also earns 2 times more, there would be 2 times more money chasing roughly the same number of goods. Let’s take things one step further.
    3 - What if your income doubles but the income of everyone else triples? In that case, you’d actually become poor. Why? Because making 2 times more money is not enough to keep up with everyone else, who now makes 3 times more.
    4 - If there is an overall increase in the price of goods and services of x% this year, you have to earn at least x% more than last year to avoid becoming poor in real terms. History makes the effects of inflation crystal clear.
    5 - Today, each a dollar buys you approximately 39 times less potatoes than 100 years ago. Or 20 times less coffee, 24 times less bread, and so on.

    Question. If consumer income increases, initially prices will rise with a new equilibrium. But will in the long run prices drop due to competition, leaving the consumer with more income and low prices once again?

    • @OneMinuteEconomics
      @OneMinuteEconomics  5 років тому +1

      As (almost) always in economics, the answer is... that it depends :)
      Among other things, it depends on why consumer income increased, as there's a huge difference between consumer income increasing because faith has been lost in the currency wages are denominated in and consumer income increasing because the economy is booming.
      Also, the answer will depend on the ideology of the economist who is answering your question. Since I'm ideologically agnostic at this point, I'll share both (main) dimensions:
      1) Those who believe in free markets are likely to answer that in the end, the market will sort itself out and as you've mentioned, equilibrium will be reached through forces such as competition
      2) Those who don't will share scenarios as to how they believe market forces will lead to imbalances in such situations, with it being necessary for governments and/or central banks to step in so as to correct them

    1 - Let’s assume your monthly income were to somehow double. Congratulations! You can now, for the most part, afford to buy two times more stuff. But what if the monthly income of everyone else were to also double?
    2 - Well, in that case, you’d no longer be able to buy 2 times more stuff, because since everyone else also earns 2 times more, there would be 2 times more money chasing roughly the same number of goods. Let’s take things one step further.
    3 - What if your income doubles but the income of everyone else triples? In that case, you’d actually become poor. Why? Because making 2 times more money is not enough to keep up with everyone else, who now makes 3 times more.

    Although too much inflation is a problem, deflation is an even greater problem to the economy.

    Inflation means something was inflated. What would that be? The money supply. Prices going up is an effect of inflation. The money supply has to increase to keep pace with population growth, but when the government hands out money and increases the amount of money in circulation it causes inflation. Then you have more money chasing fewer goods. The federal reserve aims for a target amount of inflation each year. That makes the money the government borrows less valuable and easier to deal with the debt. Money is also created and destroyed every day in the stock markets but has less of an effect on people. But the main thing is the government creates inflation and they know it. They are just lying to a gullible nation because they know that very few people understand the truth.

    INFLATION: 9 vérités pour comprendre et s'adapte
    L'inflation est de retour ! On l'entend depuis plusieurs mois, et on le vit ! Mais nous dit-on tout ce qu'il faut savoir sur le sujet ? Certainement pas. Déjà, on ne nous dit pas que l'inflation enrichit les riches ! Il va de soi que, corrélativement, elle a tendance à appauvrir les pauvres. On ne nous dit pas que l'accélération de l'inflation que nous connaissons en 2022 est largement provoquée par les pouvoirs publics. On ne nous dit pas non plus que l'inflation, bien qu'absente des indices des prix à la consommation, est parmi nous depuis déjà un bon bout de temps. Et que les Français la ressentent sur leur pouvoir d'achat. On ne nous dit pas que face à l'inflation, il y a des stratégies à mettre en place pour son épargne, afin de réduire les risques. On ne nous dit pas que les mécanismes à l'oeuvre sont aussi ceux qui ont fait exploser les cryptomonnaies. Et on ne nous dit pas, tout simplement, ce qu'est l'inflation ! Ce livre ne prétend pas être l'essai ultime sur l'inflation, mais relater des vérités qui sont bonnes à connaître dans le contexte présent et à venir, pour bien comprendre, et pour s'adapter. Il prétend aussi combler un vide sidéral puisqu'aucun livre n'a été publié en France sur ce thème si sensible, tandis que les Français ne sont toujours pas réconciliés avec l'économie. Chaque chapitre est construit autour d'une vérité, énoncée en tout début de texte, comme si elle était le titre d'un chapitre.

      So, in theory, all we have to do to keep things from inflating is mostly keep the population from going over a certain limiting (assuming wages and demand doesn't change, even thought all numbers will almost always fluctuate and almost never remain the same anyway), there has to be a sweet spot for the equation.

Their needs to be pricing limits set because this allows the sellers to create inflation.

    God doesn’t want anybody in hell because He loves us, but you must understand why we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go there. He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteous, but rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). We’re not sinners because we sin, but rather we sin because we’re sinners. Sin is the nature of our flesh that we are born with due to the sin of Adam in the garden. For someone to be justified before God they have to be sinless. We’ve all sinned (Romans 3:23), and the the law demands death for those who sin (Romans 6:23). God is righteous, so He must punish our sin, which is what He did through His Son Jesus Christ on the cross. Jesus is Holy and sinless, yet He received our sin when He died on the cross, so that we can be righteous before God (2 Corinthians 5:21). When He died on the cross, He said “It is finished” (John 19:30), which means He paid the full price for all of your sins (past, present, and future) to be forgiven. He was buried and rose again from the dead. God will forgive anybody who puts their full trust in Jesus Christ alone for salvation. We aren’t saved based on our good deeds, but only by the grace of God (Ephesians 2:8-9). His precious blood that He shed is the only reason why we can be forgiven of our sins (Hebrews 9:22). If you confess that Jesus is Lord and believe that God raised Him from the dead, then you’ll be saved (Romans 10:9). You are born-again with the Spirit of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17), and are not only legally justified before God, but also are accredited His righteous (Romans 4:24). Believers live for Christ now, so get to know Him through His Word. I recommend reading the book of Romans and the gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John), and watching Pastor Joseph Prince’s online sermons
