>velocity of money has plummeted
but anon, you can't measure velocity directly. Its just a ratio:
v = GDP / Money Supply

So in order for velocity to increase you need to increase GDP and/or DECREASE money supply. I don't think you understand QE.

>velocity is down
But you guys know that velocity isn't directly measurable. Its just a calculated ratio
V= GDP / Money Supply
So what you're saying is, we'll get inflation when
>GDP goes up bigly
and / or
>Money supply goes down

How is either of that going to happen suddenly with high unemployment, and forbearance & moratoriums ending?

Brainlettes, velocity isn't directly measurable. It is a ratio, calculated by v= gdp / m2
So you're basically saying that ending lockdowns will suddenly raise GDP, or will cause M2 to fall bigly. This despite:
>incoming mortage, rent, and loan repayments
>higher taxes
>cost push inflation (higher fuel prices, supply shortages / disruptions)
>demographics
>government spending as half of GDP
