Dinamika Konsumsi dan Inflasi Dalam Tren Ekonomi di Bulan Ramadhan

Abstract

This paper explains the dynamics of consumption and inflation in economic trends during the month of Ramadan. The month of Ramadan significantly influences consumption patterns and inflation rates. The surge in demand for essential goods, food, and other consumer products often leads to significant price increases. This study aims to analyze the dynamics of consumption and inflation during Ramadan and the efforts to control them. Using a qualitative approach, this research examines consumption trends, the impact of inflation on purchasing power, and strategies to maintain economic stability. The findings indicate that increased consumption, when not matched by adequate supply, contributes to higher inflation, particularly in the food sector. Moreover, the "Ramadan Effect" suggests that inflation can persist beyond the month of Ramadan, affecting the purchasing power of low-income groups. To address this issue, market intervention policies, supply chain strengthening, and public awareness campaigns on responsible consumption should be implemented to maintain economic balance and prevent prolonged inflationary effects.
