I watch a lot of "economic doom porn" on YouTube these days and see it fairly often. Usually it's coming from a gold bug or a crypto zealot. I'd say Ray Dalio and Peter Schiff are pretty negative on the USD, although neither one is an economist.
Ha fair enough. I occasionally watch some of that as well although I try not to. But yeah my impression is that almost all of the voices calling for hyper inflation are coming out of that sector.
To be fair, I would say even Dalio would expect strong inflation but not hyperinflation from what I've heard from him.
They are one trick pony channels that create an echo chamber for their audience. However like many other terrible things with a following, there is a grain of truth that reels people in. I would argue there are a couple decent grains of truth in that mostly best to avoid category.
Honest question: Who do you hear suggesting hyper inflation is coming? I personally cannot think of many people publicly making this claim
