Inflation, Deflation, Stagflation & What's Going On In The Marketplace

Today, we’re going to be talking about inflation, deflation, stagflation, and what it all means. Inflation has been the topic of everyone’s conversation recently. In simple terms, inflation is caused by the overstimulation of the economy through the government printing of money. What is going on in the marketplace? The Dow Jones keeps dropping, bonds are getting crucified, the real estate market is coming down fast… We are seeing similarities to the 2008 overstimulated housing market, but this time it’s in multiple asset classes – housing, bonds, equities, crypto, these areas have doubled, tripled, or even quadrupled in the last 5 years or so. That is an over-appreciating, overstimulated asset with too much cash being thrown at a limited supply.
