So a lot of people have been talking about disinflation lately. What does it even mean and why does it matter? Inflation is how fast prices rise while “disinflation" means prices are still going up, but not as fast as they were before. It’s simply a slowdown of inflation, which ain't the same as "deflation," where prices actually drop.
Brace yourselves, disinflation is coming
Brace yourselves, disinflation is coming
Brace yourselves, disinflation is coming
