Inflation: why it's very unlikely to get back below 2% for years to come
August 26, 2022--The UK and the Eurozone have seen record inflation rises, with UK prices rising 10.1% in July.
Central banks, most economists, and commentators attributed rising prices to logistic bottlenecks and production constraints due to COVID-19 lockdowns.
In this piece, two economists argue that today's inflation has its roots in the 2008 financial crisis and is set to say persistently above 2% for years to come.
Inflation in the UK and eurozone is still getting worse. UK prices rose a whopping 10.1% in July compared to a year earlier, while those in the eurozone went up 8.9% - breaking longstanding records in both places. Contrast this with the equivalent data from the US a few days earlier, where the 8.5% rate was lower than the previous month and below market expectations.
