Is it just me or people are out of liquidity ( money ) ?

From what i see : market , malls etc no people,or if they buy something...they buy basic stuff... in my area ...slow biz ...same in your country ?

In my country the same thing happened, the mall was quiet, automatic sales dropped because of the pandemic that happened for almost 2 years, people only bought basic needs and it was only for daily needs, of course not everyone was affected or ran out of money during the pandemic because many people actually increased their wealth such as the production of foodstuffs, instant noodles and so on.
All this has a normal and simple explanation, and that is that inflation is wreaking havoc, in the case of particular economies of nations, which were quite stable, let's say the case of Colombia that never reflected high inflation rates, now they currently manage inflation above 8% and this is something alarming, alarming because they increased wages and by raising wages they generated more inflation, so it could be said that for the first quarter of a country that depends almost on its own production is in trouble, people They don't have enough money and the cost of everything increased, this suffocates, but if we see the core of this, it comes from the fact that the USA also has inflation and this inflation is disguised, why? because the US government lives off the debt it maintains with other countries, so due to its hegemony, it is not noticeable, but there will come a time when it will not take it anymore and the economy will have an impressive decline, the war that currently exists can speed up.

Where I reside people still patronize the major malls as if every thing is normal. The last time I visited a mall towards the middle of last week. The wall was full and people bought things not just basic stuffs but things that seem a bit extravagant. It depends on your area or when you visited the mall in your location. But I think it's a general problem

It may just be you friend, no matter how harsh economic situations become, know that it is in favour of some people who engineered the situation or have already set themselves at positions of opportunity. In my country, bars and clubs are still filled up on weekends, people are still erecting/buying structures and cars etc which is a clear indication that there is still liquidity to a large extent. You have to decide where you want to belong, with the people who believe that everyone is out of liquidity because of their personal situation, or those who still believe that there is liquidity and are working to get themselves to it, you have to choose, what you believe matters.

I think that fiat money has been losing a lot of value, not only the money of the local economies of some countries that suffer from inflation, if we go to an economy that has stood out for many years, which could be talking about a global hegemony, it is the USD, which cannot hide the high levels that it has for now, this in some way affects all countries, eventually we have the case of a country where its economy had remained stable, let's say the case of Colombia, until recently they are reporting levels of inflation higher than 5%, and this is alarming, for February 2022 I think they have a value above 8%, previously the government in the face of these events raised the salary and instead of improving it made everything much more expensive, that is something normal, now everyone complains about the high cost of living, if this happens in countries of this style, what is left for others where many times they do not report and try to make up their net worth of liabilities?

It's not that you don't have money, you can have the same money, the only thing is that money can no longer buy the same things that were bought 3 or 4 years ago.

Yes, basic stuff is all most people can afford these days. Each new week you go to the supermarket the price of food increases considerably. The official inflation doesn't correspond to the real inflation on practice, that is much higher and aggressive.

When purchasing power decreases we have a dangerous phenomenon, as people become unhappy and consequently more prone to wars and conflicts in general.

Poverty and misery are essential ingredients in the war recipe.

This question is purely subjective on the fact that it depends on one's country.

Personally here in my country, money is very liquid. Businesses are thriving and prices (inflation) is growing from time-to-time. Gasoline prices are all spiked up and prices of general goods have been steadily increasing in the past few months. Though this may be the case, the government has implemented various financial projects to at least address this issue.

OP, if you are living in a country where there are financial challenges due to various concerns/reasons, then I would understand your scenario as majority of the funds are being allotted somewhere else.

what country do you live in, each country has different income/expenditures?  in my country, people's purchasing power is still high, even though it's still a pandemic.  if your economy is really difficult during this pandemic then you have to save money and buy only what you need.
Yes, each country is different but some countries are rich and some countries are poor but the income and expenditures will also depend on the people. Some people earns less while some earns big but some poor people can spend more compare to richer people. This why they are still poor.

This wrong in others perspective but they cant do anything because those people themselves do not want to embrace a change. It is not their fault if their economy is in difficult situation but it can be the fault of their government. If their government is good, this wont end up this way where they need to control their selves to spend for the things that they always wanted.
One of the things i'm concerned about is peoples buying things they don't really need, they say this world is unfair but in fact they are the ones who are not able to manage their money and their desires.  the difficulties of money that occur are not due to external faults, they are more internal faults, self-awareness is a good thing to manage finances during a pandemic.

It's just you. There will always be people with money, there will always be periods of time of boom and bust. Covid caused a lot of problems for the whole world in the last two years and strong shocks to the system will naturally cause people to be more conservative in your spending - if you think the future will be tough then you will be careful with your money. After a couple years of hell for most countries, people are out and spending again from what I see, there are some who lost their jobs in the crisis who may be without the financial reserves but others were working all the way through it and want to start using those accrued savings now.

I don't see any drastic change, people are doing what they are doing but the real thing is rich get richer and poor got poorer, people are making investments on real estate, gold, buying cars I mean expensive cars, etc probably the number of people doing this was low.
That's true.

I've seen people who have been wealthy have added more assets during the pandemic and they're even buying more properties and brand new cars.

No question to their success and it's really the thing in the world that the rich who are established are being more established and wealthier.
The pandemic has made the rich richer, after all if we see the growth of Amazon and other similar businesses we can see that it grew a lot during the pandemic and the same is true for many other businesses.

However like always it is the average person the one that needs to pay the consequences, inflation is high all over the world and it is affecting food prices everywhere, this means that now a greater portion of our income has to be dedicated to our basic needs, this could create a downward spiral of the economy as now people will reduce the money they spend in other things, which could force some governments to print more money, creating a vicious circle in the process.

I don't know what is going on Romania. But if I talk about middle-income countries like Vietnam, India, I've visited there....

They are suffering from a very serious problem due to the pandemic situation. A large part of people have lost their jobs. The price of the commodity is so high that all but a few rich people are able to afford them end the rest are struggling to make ends meet. No one has money. Another problem is that producers are failing to get the right price for their products because the brokerage class is taking advantage of their ignorance.

The job has become a golden deer. Even after getting adequate education, the youth are not getting jobs. The frustration of unemployment surrounds them.

Rich people are getting richer day by day and poor marginalized people are getting poorer day by day.

Tell me - what, it was different before? For example, I have a completely confident opinion that all these processes are repeated in waves, the only difference is the height and length of these waves. And there are explanations for this too - there are events that have a different level of influence on the economy, the population of entire regions, etc. Therefore, I can say for sure - it will soon get better, and then it will be bad again ... And this will be repeated constantly. That's the way the world works...

This is why the stock market are so inflated right now. People simply don't know what is a good place to park their funds with good returns - and they are chasing after risky assets as a result.

Many people now realized to invest there money and probably that why op is asking of no liquidity. So investment is usually now parked in crypto asset. In the past I believe there is high liquidity in the countries of the world but now they look to invest in bitcoin and I believe that the safe place to invest is bitcoin because you always retain the unit of coins you have no matter the rate of dropping or bear, it will still rise.

Quite the opposite from what I'm seeing?

Most people currently, at least the ones who have any sort of professional, corporate job have a ton of cash to play with.

The same thing in my country, there is a great economic recession, high prices and poor financial liquidity for most people, because of the epidemic, many economic problems have appeared in many countries that have led to high prices, poor liquidity and faltering of the business sector. Governments have failed to find good solutions to this crisis and a mistake The economic policies of most countries lead to more economic stagnation and deterioration. I don't know how long this bad situation can continue, but it is really annoying.
Governments printed a lot of money during the pandemic in order to try to avoid an even stronger economic recession, but now we are feeling the effects of those measures, inflation is very high all over the world and this affects especially the middle class and those that are poor.

This is because inflation is affecting some of the most basic necessities, like food and transportation, and there is only so much you can do to reduce your expenses when it is something so critical, so this is increasing the pressure on those two groups, and if they spend less and have less to spend this affects the economy in general, creating a downward spiral from which it is difficult to escape.

That has been the norm, the rich are always buying new things and making lots of money. It’s just like when it comes to investment, you can’t compare someone who is rich with someone who is poor, that’s why you would see some people saying sometimes that the rich are the ones who mostly benefits from this bitcoin investment, and of course that is true: they are the ones who have enough to invest in the market and since they have enough money to invest, they would always be making lots of profit than those who don’t have as much to invest, because in the market how much you invest is what determines how much you get.

Uuhm, it’s quite normal I think. There are times that things would be like that, you’d  go and you wouldn’t see much people buying in the market, like it wouldn’t be all that too much of population. And I don’t know how serious the COVID-19 was in your country, is it possible that such thing might have made a lot of people to avoid going to places that are likely to be crowded?

I wouldn’t say it’s because people don’t have money, it’s not all about money, because in my location you’d  hear people complain that things are now costly, but you would go to the market and still see so many people there.
