I look at it that it hasn't increased by that much. Its slowing down.If it doesn't go down next month, will be worrying

"The acceleration in the month-on-month rate of inflation ... the highest month-on-month rise in inflation that we had seen since April of this year, very worryingly hints at a resurgence of inflationary pressure," said Razia Khan, head of Africa research at Standard Chartered in London.

In April the rate was 9%+. The October rate is 18.9%... That's 100% increase in 7 months. Very bullish this d'oh!

If inflation was an investment the returns for 2011 to date are outsize - 6 folds - 600%+ .. How will workers & employers or industries & consumers survive...

I'm waiting to see the gimmicks that will be used to tweak the rate soon... It always happens... Let's wait & see how this thing will lose a 600% acceleration without fudging of figures for rains won't wash out that outsize gain...
