The drastic drop in inflation and interest rates economically are not having effect on Purchasing Powers of Consumers meaning they are Artificial. President Mahama & his FM are basically Unintelligent. Naturally when both drop, Consumers are influenced to go in for more loans boosting their their desire to spend bcoz prices have drop.

Advanced economies as the qualifying noun suggests is matured hence the room for growth is very small. Just like the world's best player has a few things to learn compared to an amateur player who has a lot to learn.

Did you, Dr. Yaw Adutwum, acquire your doctorate degree by opening a CrakerJack cereal box or you did actually earn it attending classes at a reputable accredited university?

A person like you knowing about dissertation or thesis, Dr. Yaw Adutwum, should let readers know at what inflation value would the economy grow since you believe an inflation value below 5 percent leads to contraction of the economy.

I hope in your next theory you can talk about why being a tribal bigot coupled with love for a political party over love for Ghana makes one ignorant, educated or uneducated, Dr. Adutwum

Wow, this guy wanted to be president. No wonder he messed Ghana’s educational system.
He might do well to show me 1 developed country with a growth rate of 10%.
Please let him know an inflation rate of about 20% during his tenure meant every Ghanaian’s savings lost 20% purchasing power every year meaning we become 20% poorer.
Now the nation has an able government please let’s support him to deliver.

If he indeed made the categorical statement that “a drop in inflation shrinks the economy rather than stabilising it,” then that is unfortunate.
It reinforces my view that politicians aspiring to positions such as MCE and above should undergo rigorous and transparent competency assessment before being allowed to run for any public office.
Such a system should clearly demonstrate a candidate’s level of understanding on important national issues and policy areas. In addition, there should be credible and independent screening of sources of financing and potential conflicts of interest for obvious reasons.
Public office carries immense responsibility, and the standards for occupying it should reflect that reality.

NO, the economy doesn't shrink with inflation dropping from 3.3% to 3.2%, rather it shows stabilisation. The economy only shrinks if inflation is below 0% or negative.

These were the clowns Akuffo Addo used to spoil the economy with this silly thinking
I now understand why they allowed inflation to reach 54% and the best they could do was to bring it down to 23% which they even said we should praise them. Today, they are fighting the government for bringing same inflation down to less than 5%. Such silly ass neggars are the same clowns that belly dancer Bawumia will bring if Ghanaians foolishly and mistakenly give him power.

I am of the view that inflection means the prices of goods and services increase or decrease.
I state that I bough an item for GHC1,600.00 in 2024 and in 2026 the price had reduced to half of the amount I used to buy in in 2024. It now cost GHC 800.00.
That means the drop in inflection is real.
