What country are you in?

In my area it’s business as usual. Gas stations are just as busy with record high price of gasoline. Malls and restaurants also busy.

The stock market however? I frequent wallstreetbets and it looks like the last 6 months cleaned out many traders. The activity there is slower than usual. Pointing to retail market getting wiped out with all these bad earnings .

Romania is my country ...i suspect delay in yours ,energy prices reduced a lot money in people pockets this year.

You're in a country near where the tension of war is, I guess people are warned and perhaps not buying unnecessary things today but the basic needs. Maybe the people are just cautious and save money for now. You are near the pipelines right? Is gas a problem in your country?

The crypto market isn't out of liquidity though, the price went up overnight from $37K to $41K. Volume and the spike are certainly not a confirmation of what you are saying.

On basic products like vegetable oil / flour / sugar etc they set a limit that you can buy ( ration ) ...and we are one of Europe's biggest agro exporters,can't understand why people are not spending ... we are not that scared of Russia - Ukraine tensions . we are NATO country ,if Putin invades Romania we are all dead no matter what country you are ,nukes etc ...
