The document analyzes data from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis regarding US dollars in circulation from 1918 to 2013. It finds that unprecedented increases in the money supply since 2008 have led to all-time record highs in the year-to-year, 12-month rolling average, 24-month rolling average, and longer rolling averages of percentage increases compared to previous decades. This massive increase in the money supply could seriously risk hyperinflation and negatively impact the value of the US dollar for years to come unless corrective measures are taken.
