inflationary psychology

    0.01 sec.
inflationary psychology
Consumers' belief that prices will inevitably rise, a belief that drives them to speed up purchases especially of real assets (that is, gold, diamonds, and real estate) and avoid investment in financial assets (that is, stocks and bonds). As a result, the consumers themselves can cause the inflation that they fear will occur.
