    I’m obviously not suggesting that they’re gonna collapse or anything stupid like that, but are they in a deflation or not because the media is talking about it a lot. At this point I don’t even know if they’re taking facts and twisting them to suit their narrative or if they’re just making it the fuck up

        This is what I’m very confused about. I read before that deflation is a sign of a slowdown/recession in the economy but like also having your current worth more/prices going down sounds objectively good to me? Is there any good Devil’s advocate position that can put forth any negatives for deflation because China certainly doesn’t seem like a slowing economy to me.
