Please help to support this channel's work:https://www.youtube.com/@Bitcoin_University/joinIn this video, I discuss whether or not there has been price gouging by large US grocery stores over the past few years.I conclude that there has not been. Net profit margins have remained low and flat, indicating a highly competitive industry.The real drivers behind grocery price inflation have been government deficits that are being monetized by Fed money printing.Not investment advice!
