“Things to buy with dollar instead of waiting for its value to crash – found in the comments section of an article” – This is indicative of why all those economists and others who said inflation was transitory and that even now everyone realizes that was wrong, there are many saying no hyperinflation and it will recede as the economy slows. What was the big argument that inflation wasn’t so bad, that all that money created during covid wasn’t inflationary because VELOCITY wasn’t increasing. Well it is now, and as people realize they should buy what they need and want now because it will cost more(if it is even still available) in the future. That is VELOCITY picking up and that leads to the viscious cycle of hyper inflation.
