That was the previous government, The current government has reduced it first to about 8% last month, to now 4.4%.
The current administration took office in December, and obviously it takes time to make reforms. But president Javier Milei is an economist, so we can hope he can get that part working better than the previous government.
But he is a populist as you wrote, and allegedly a libertarian, so I agree Argentina may be going from one evil to another.
It's weird how South American countries often goes from one extreme to another?
You're comparing month over month inflation to annual inflation, which is pretty dishonest.
I wrote month as the article states, you are the one who used old data from last year, which is either dishonest or ignorance.
The fact is the inflation is now dropping under this new administration. If it's about 50% per year, it's still a heck of a lot better than 276% it was before.
I hope it improves further, and with changes that are so dramatic, you have to use m/m.
4.4% month over month is about 68% year over year if it stays that way which is still significantly better. The president is a piece of shit but he is indeed getting inflation under control. Unfortunately poverty and unemployment are definitely going to shoot up and I don't foresee Milei giving a shit and trying to ease peoples' burdens. I wish every president arrive Kirchner hadn't done their damnedest to hide the real inflation rate. The central bank has not given any real numbers for well over a decade.
