  2. Basically the whole "inflation will surge" narrative wasn't real. Look at core CPI. Core inflation hasn't really gone up. Most of the inflation comes from rising energy. So once oil prices start to rally more slowly, inflation won't rise as much.

    Thanks, but what about the influence of recent dollar surge on inflation? Isn't it working as an obstacle for inflation gains?
