What is inflation — and why it matters. Inflation is the rate at which prices rise over time. It erodes purchasing power — £100 today buys less than £100 a year ago. Central banks target 2% inflation. Too high, and they raise rates. Too low, and they cut. Inflation drives interest rates — and interest rates drive markets. This is what we teach in Module 6.1 — Macro Indicators and Sentiment. https://youtu.be/GbFz0ppoVcc
