It has led to hyperinflation, massive inflation of global assets such as property, bonds and the stock market.
Average house prices in London to hit £1 million by 2030 - Home News - UK - The Independent
New 33% property tax in NZ for sales within two years of purchase
Ontario
U.S. Stocks Rally; S&P 500 Closes at a Record - WSJ
Records tumble at New York art auctions - Business Insider
etc
The negative inflation being measured here are consumable goods, which are not rising in price as people are unable to pay more for them due to falling incomes.Comment

£1m house prices in 2030 is inflation of ~11% (based on average price of £200k today which I guessed), that's not hyper-inflation.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

If it goes on, I wouldn't be surprised if they bring in some form of deposit tax, with people and especially companies being taxed on long-term savings.Work in the public sector? Read the IR35 FAQ hereComment

So what is exactly getting cheaper (causing deflation)? Is it housing costs, energy, food, transport?
