Great picture to illustrate that the EU and the US need very different responses to the current inflation regime. For the US, it’s mostly homegrown, so higher interest rates help curb inflation. EU has mostly imported inflation. Rate hikes won’t help. Plus big diversity w/in EU.
The nature of this inflationary shock is very different between US and EU.
While price increases in energy & food hit both, in the US most of the CPI increase is due to goods & services inflation: $6 trillion of fiscal stimulus...
In EU, it's more about the poor energy policy.
