After updating my global CPI time series, I used one of my programs to find out how many countries have high inflation.
Over the last few months, this number has increased sharply. Out of a sample of 43 countries, two thirds now have inflation above 6%. Will run it for 'above 8%' tomorrow, as it's late here and I'm going to bed.
Implication: this is a global phenomenon.
