Prices go up throughout, until you get to the point where the red line goes below the black one. By then though they're much higher than they ever were.
Compare post 2000 with pre 2000. Inflation is reducing but prices are still going up.
It's like a rollercoaster.
You have speed, then velocity which invokes acceleration, the a changing rate of acceleration they call jiggle(iirc), then a changing rate of jiggle.
If you get it wrong, everybody vomits.
Nobody did that. They posted a quick example to show the point and you still don't understand it.
Schoolboy level stuff and you call me an idiot.
Grow up
The Y axis shows inflation rate, not prices!Nice chart. The trend line on the first half of the chart would track the 'lows' in an upward trend, same as on any share price chart.
But the 'actual' line isn't going up in a straight line is it, there are a number of small drop backs (or price decreases) along the way.
That doesn't alter the main trendline, but does acknowledge there will be small falls along the way. IE, the price might be lower one month than the month before, before carrying on it's upward journey.

Yes they are linked. But a lower inflation rate does not mean a fall in prices. It does mean a slower increase in prices.Aren't they linked?
You still don't get it do you?Compound monthly inflation lol, I'm not the only one who pulled you up on it am I.

It wasn't showing anything other than the principle. You still don't understand that though.
Rubbish. Go back to your 1st post that was wrong. You couldn't and still don't understand how falling inflation still means prices rising and I ended up showing you Imaginary figures on a simple example of inflation to exaggerate the point.But you were showing the wrong principal, inflation compounded on a monthly basis.
