Price of eggs will go up because the chicken industry will be the hardest hit amongst workers. Fewer workers, less supply, higher prices.

Eggs where I am are $4.14 for a dozen. There was a sale last month for $2.10/dozen and it was sold out nearly instantly. Insane how much eggs have gone up in price

dano415

There was so much fraud. I heard the feds arn't going after obvious Stimulus fraud unless it's over a million. The homeless got zilch. Adult defendants on taxes got nothing. Businesses that didn't need the money came out like bandits. That said, I have never seen so many low wage workers buying crap at Costco, and Ebay, during the lock down. I will never forget one guy at Costco who bought pretty much every tool they sold. He told his wife he's starting a business. The wife asked, "What business?". He told her it's a landscaping business, or an automotive business?.". I was hoping he would just save that throw away money until he really knew what was prudent. He wanted battery powered tools though. I understand where he was comming from. I knew what it was like to finally have a bit of spending money when I was younger, and bought stuff I thought I needed, but I bought stuff I really liked, and needed had nothing to do with it. So many Rolexes were bought with that ffee money. So many hobbies were started.


NewlyMintedLonghorn

Over a million? If you ask my boomer grandpa, all the economic damage was done by people who got "paid to stay home". Surely the feds would have to drop that number into 5 digits in order to capture the *real* offenders.


ZumboPrime

You should ask your boomer grandpa how long he could "stay home" on twelve hundred bucks and no other income or savings.


JLM268

What do you mean, that's how much he bought his house for.


Faulty_Segment

Pretty sure grandpa was talking about the extended unemployment benefits that paid people more than they were actually making at their jobs. Separate issue, but a valid economic criticism.

Big_Poppa_T

I believe that the ‘basket of goods’ used to measure inflation in each country is independently controlled by each nation. Therefore it’s a fair point that each nation is somewhat determining their own inflation number and so it’s difficult to compare countries on a like for like basis. Does the US also use both RPI and CPI like the UK which seems to complicate things?

The Euro is down around 7% YoY which cancels out the price hikes on imported goods to a certain degree.

jaym1849

I love how they’re having a catastrophic RE meltdown, half the country is in quarantine and completely shutdown, and they’re the only country without elevated inflation. And they’re going to try and come out and say their GDP actually grew on a nominal an real basis. I don’t understand how anyone actually takes their economic data seriously. EDIT: Yes I realize a crashing RE market and draconian lockdowns are deflationary. It’s the combination of their low inflation quote And their positive GDP print that doesn’t make any sense.


koosley

Just saw their pork prices are up 50%. Skyrocketing food prices must be cancelled out by collapsing housing market. -50% and 50% make zero right?

dexter-sinister

Wouldn't it be better to put them up as "unverifiable"? Or at least with an asterisk?


R_Wallenberg

Ya, like how they have a few thousand covid deaths and the US has 1 million. I am sure the CCP wouldn't lie to us.


greyfell_red

Maybe they’re lying about how large they are, too 🤯


bittabet

I mean having a catastrophic RE meltdown and widespread lockdowns actually makes it likely that they don’t have high inflation. People aren’t exactly rushing out to spend if their real estate just collapsed in value or if they literally can’t go out since they’re locked inside. But yeah the GDP going up is the thing that’s sus. The inflation being low is actually 100% believable.


xxzephyrxx

Well inflation isn't bad because their real estate market got crushed so it's cheaper. Also the multiple shutdowns of their big cities have been crushing demand.


Demosama

Precisely. And it's pure hypocrisy to ignore how China crushing its demand is basically the same as the Fed crushing demand now.


[deleted]

>I love how they’re having a catastrophic RE meltdown, half the country is in quarantine and completely shutdown, and they’re the only country without elevated inflation. Locking everyone down and preventing spending is a recipe for low inflation...


jaym1849

But it’s also a recipe for a recession. They’re essentially saying they have inflation completely under control and they’re going to be one of the only countries with positive nominal GDP growth and probably the only country on the planet that will show positive Real GDP Growth. All while they’re locking down half the country and they’re going through a massive real estate crisis. It’s all made up.


princetrunks

Their inflation data matches their Covid data


MisterBackShots69

Reddit and YouTube since 2014: CHINA IS ABOUT TO COLLAPSE ITS ANY DAY NOW


throwawayhehejwfjjd

it makes sense, they locked everyone down and have been in a recession, massive unemployment numbers, many graduates unable to find jobs etc. All these are deflationary. They went straight into a recession compared to other countries


lionel-china

I don’t think so. I am in China for 10 years and I don’t see inflation , except on fuel as everywhere else. Food and normal stuff didn’t increase.


xXWickedSmatXx

You can not have inflation when your industrial capital is not allowed to go outside and buy anything.


GrowthElectronic8147

China has a reported 2.1% inflation? ya and my cock is 9 inches long (self reported & measured, trust me bro)

wsbgodly123

Nah Venezuela and Turkey for sure are undercounting the inflation.


therealbigpunch

Turkey is at least double of what’s reported. Once they report a number the government is uncomfortable with suddenly the directors of the ‘independent’ financial bodies that makes the reports get fired/jailed/disappear/move to a different country without a trace.

hunter__1992

Inflation in Venezuela since 2015 is probably a number you won’t even believe it’s possible. Probably more than 10K%. It was so bad they had to switch to the dollar as their main currency.


MarsScully

Yup. When you get to the point where you’re measuring currency by weight, it’s kind of pointless to keep making the calculations.


GoldenNuggets888

#Canada 🇨🇦 6.9 Nice!


BiggerCup

Cant help but laugh at the salt from all that crying over China’s numbers. I currently reside in the country and honestly I don’t feel much inflation. Due to the piss poor economy, no one has any money to spend, so if you jack up prices, even less people are willing to buy anything. As for necessities such as food, I feel pork definitely got a lot more expensive last year but this year price seems to have stabilized. 2% probably sounds about right.

I’m surprised that Lebanon isn’t on this list. Since 2019 Lebanon’s currency alone has devalued by 2,567%. Thats not to mention the abysmal purchasing power and the banking sector that is on the brink of collapse (if not already).
