Introduction
Inflation Statistics: Inflation means that the overall prices of goods and services in an economy keep rising over time. As a result, the money people have cannot buy as much as before, which slowly reduces the real value of the currency.
When inflation is moderate, it can reflect healthy economic activity, but when it climbs too high, it creates challenges such as higher living costs and reduced savings value. Tracking inflation is important for shaping financial policies and understanding its impact on everyday life.

FAQ.
The five main reasons for inflation are demand-pull, cost-push, excessive money supply, currency depreciation, and policies.
Inflation can be reduced by controlling the money supply, raising interest rates, cutting deficits, and boosting production.
Everyday costs rise, the value of money falls, savings and investments suffer, and the economy grows unstable.
