PSX Inflation Impact Calculator

See the invisible thief. Calculate how much your cash savings are losing in value every year and compare it with the **Real Wealth Growth** potential of the Pakistan Stock Exchange.

Wealth Destruction

If inflation is 15%, a loaf of bread that costs Rs 100 today will cost Rs 115 next year. If your money didn't grow by at least 15%, you just became poorer.

Negative Real Return

This is the biggest financial risk in Pakistan. Stagnant cash is a guaranteed loss.

Wealth Protection

Equity (Stocks) represent ownership in productive assets. Unlike paper currency, a factory or a bank has intrinsic value that adjusts to inflation.

Pricing Power

Strong companies pass inflation costs to customers, protecting your shareholder value.

When inflation rises, companies increase the prices of their products and services. This leads to higher revenues and potentially higher dividends, which helps the stock price keep pace with inflation.

If your bank's profit rate is lower than the inflation rate (which is often the case for regular savings accounts), your 'Real Return' is negative. You are effectively losing money every day.

While stocks are a good long-term hedge, they are volatile in the short term. During severe economic crises, both the stock market and purchasing power can drop simultaneously.
