Is deflation catastrophically bad?
In my opinion, no.
What is deflation?
The decrease in prices.
How is price created?
demand
Price = ----------------------------
supply
What can cause inflation?
If demand ⬆️, prices ⬆️.
If supply ⬇️, prices ⬆️.
What happens if we want higher GDP?
GDP ⬆️, supply ⬆️, Prices ⬇️, which is deflation.
What will happen in such a case where we have inflation because of higher GDP/supply?
In my eye the following 2 scenario or their combination can happen:
1.) Supply ⬆️ -> Prices ⬇️ -> People buy more because it is cheap -> Demand ⬆️ -> Prices ⬆️ because of demand -> Sets an equilibrium
2.) Supply ⬆️ -> Prices ⬇️ -> People save because everything will be cheaper tomorrow -> Demand ⬇️ -> Price ⬇️ -> It does worth for companies to produce more, so they will cut supply -> Supply ⬇️ -> Price ⬆️ -> Sets an equilibrium
What is your opinion? What did I miss?
