What you are showing here is the Year over year inflation. Both 2023 inflation and 2024 inflation curves obviously will overlap.

And guess what. Most of that overlap you see? All from the previous administration's 211% yearly inflation.

That overlap? Is almost gone now, and for January next year, will be forgotten. Hell, even leftists here stopped using it as people quickly realized this curve was and keeps dropping.

So yeah, 211% is still more than 107%.

Care to continue? Go ahead and prove all circles are squares now

You are clearly arguing something, but I believe not even you know what it is.

Here’s the MoM

Same trend, same cause.

Again, month over month curves will also overlap. You are only showing the trend of increasing inflation and how it has dropped with this current government

Are you trying to prove that because we have less inflation now, we are doing worse somehow?

Take a crack at 1+1 equals fish.

Just to add to the thread, here Link are the monthly numbers for the last 5 years. Last time we had something under 2,7 was nov 2021.

I mean, they're proving their point rather well, not sure why you feel the need to take pot shots at them :/

[–] Shardikprime 0 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

No point at all in proving that 211% yearly inflation in 2023 is less than 107% inflation in 2024, but you do you
