We continue the “Scary Revisions” series of Primary articles inflation (mainly food). Data for 21 Aug 2010 showed the primary articles inflation at 15.19%.
As usual, the revision of 26 June data pushed inflation then to 17.11%, up from the 16.08% reported. The upward revisions better stop here, otherwise we’ll see something dramatic.
