Victor--

Did you recently install anything that might mess with your prompt?

Stuff like oh-my-zsh and similar.  It sounds like your prompt may be
the issue, and you could verify this by changing it to just like $ by 
doing something like this:

export PS1=$

Now, depending how fancy the prompt is, it could have a lot more stuff 
like right aligned things and other stuff that eats up other exported prompt 
variables.  

At least it is something to try...
