umm, i am gonna assume u did not take an economics class in high school.inflation usually reports at a 3 month advance, based on the wholsale price index.it means that u will be able to see the effects of todays low inflation rates 3 months from now.another important point is that this inflation rate is in comparison to last years prices.since inflation was so high last year, th RATE of inflation is low even though prices are still high.o yea, and this isnt an all time low for inflation. i heard it had gone to a (-14)% during indira gandhis emergancy call hope ive helped
