    I remember much higher inflation in the 90's, it's hardly at an all time high, but that doesn't mean it isn't relatively high of course.

    Personally I think inflation will only be high for a limited time then dip again

  • Inflation hasn't reached an all time high, highest inflation was 24.2% on average in 1975 peaking at 26.9%.

    No......still gibberish.

    As a quick starter, try dropping the word "the" from in front of the words Inflation and IR.

    Then you could try changing the word reached to reaching.

    When you've done that it might make a wee bit more sense.

    After that, sign in under some of your other alter-ego's and try editing some of your posts on Gold and Silver which usually contain similar gibberish !!!

  • I reckon interest rates will rise sooner rather than later and way they do, dear help anyone with a largeish mortgage. I think they could go up to 4% over the next couple of years (in my opinion of course.)
  • rates will rise in 2011 and when they do its time to party
