Deflation is the decrease in the general price level of goods and services in an economy over time. It often results from a reduction in the supply of money or credit, leading to increased purchasing power of currency. While it may seem beneficial initially, deflation can lead to reduced consumer spending, lower production, and increased unemployment, ultimately harming economic growth. Central banks typically aim to prevent deflation to maintain economic stability.
