The INFLATION thread

[tidus1203]

I think given that ANYTHING and EVERYTHING is going up in prices, its high time to make a thread where we can post all things that are going up in price. Since this is Tsikot the first thing is of course gas prices are going uo but I guess there are many threads discussing that already. But let me start of by saying that even our LPG tanks will now cost P3 more per kilo Baka may ibang tao bibili nalang ng posporo

INFLATION for May is 8.8%-9.6% which IMO is still understated cause IMO we have double-digit inflation...

Too add insullt to injury, the goons from the central bank is running the printing presses at a very fast rate...

Blame the commodity speculators. Leading cost of inflation again is high oil prices. Many say this crises will last until early 2010. Yung nakakatakot yung hyper inflation, like what happen in Argentina in the 90's.

Speculators can't be blamed entirely, they are rich guys who want to protect their wealth I am sure kung mayaman ka din you want to make sure your wealth will last you beyond your generation. The US Dollar is being printed at a very rapid rate and its value continues to depreciate. So people put their money in GOLD, OIL or other commodities which retain their value to preserve their wealth....

Since inflation is on the upward trend....does it follow that interest rates will follow suit?
