You’re correct that the recent uptick is unprecedented, but given that the other graph (shared by Nobel prize winning economist) shows no stable relationship between M2 and inflation, why does it matter? He might be wrong and you might be right, but that graph alone doesn’t tell that story.


These morons are trying to pump a certain crypto-token by instilling inflation fears, but since inflation has been a non-issue in the US since the 1970s, they are now trying to shift the focus to the money supply as if it had any relevance at all.


Do you truly believe that printing unprecedented amounts of money will have zero effect on the real value of that money?


Yes, because the Fed is increasing the supply to meet an equal increase in demand.
