Inflation definition

Inflation means annual increase in prices of goods and services. Inflation under 2%-3% is often considered "normal" or "desirable", as it indicates "normal" economic growth. Higher annual inflation is normally viewed as something negative, as higher inflation basically means higher prices and getting less for your money. Inflation is the opposite to deflation.
