Is it scientific to say one way or another, or to support or against the argument?
News Corporation Chairman, Mr Rupert Murdoch said not long ago: "Economists just make the weatherman looks better."
Inflation, as economic growth, is endogenous and affected by so many variables, including government policies and responses by other market agents. They are difficult to forecast, because they can change as other things including policies change.
To say one way or another is not meaningful and is not different to betting. It does not make any sense, although so many people are interested in doing it. There is no science in it.
