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

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
