Turning point
The credit and liquidity crisis will influence inflation and trigger a realignment of currencies, as well as a restructuring of the financial sector. Meanwhile, crisis-induced recession may dampen inflation, at least in Western economies, for the next year or two, although the longer-term prognosis for higher inflation remains sombre. Commodity prices, driven by scarcity, will play a key part in this outlook.
