I know a LOT of argentines who havent gotten 30% increases. A huge amount of the millenial argentines I know are not full time salaried employees, but free lancers, gig economy kids, people who juggle 2 or 3 part time en negro jobs, and self employed people. They are getting squeezed big time, and have no big union to negotiate for them.
On the other hand, everything does not go up in price at the same rate from inflation- obviously, imported goods, which are paid for in dollars, respond to the currency exchange rate pretty quickly.
And Industria Argentina products vary wildly in pricing surges.
Commodities generally respond pretty quickly to inflation- they are easy to track economy wide, and if one chino is charging a certain price for milk, everybody else will be close.
Other things, however, are much more unpredictable.
In many industries, wholesalers stockpile when prices are low- so, for instance, the price for this years fancy Italian silk fabric has gone up a lot- but there are other fabric dealers with a warehouse of rolls of silk, some of which they purchased as long ago as 20 years- and so they have the discretion to raise prices as they see fit, staying below the fresh imports.
The argentine economy generally plays by no established economic rules- thats why nobody can fix it, and every time standard global fixes are tried, they fail in new and unexpected ways.
Inflation is a huge problem- but not an easy one to measure or describe, beyond a few obvious things like Iphones or Starbucks.
I can find a price range, for essentially the same product, of around 30% to 50%, if I look hard enough, for some things- its perplexing. The exact same thing can cost double, 2 miles away.
Do you own the building your business is in?
Or rent?
Many times, you see stores that should not, by standard economic rules, be in business. But for invisible reasons, they are, while predictable sure things go out of business.
