Why inflation collapsed in the US but shot up in Ghana?

Trend of inflation

The Producer Price Inflation which measures the ex-factory prices of goods and services was 10.1 per cent on a year-on-year basis in June 2021. This represents a 1.7 percentage point decrease in producer inflation relative to the rate recorded in May 2021 (11.8%).

Consequently, the month-on-month change in producer price index between May 2021 and June 2021 was 1.1 percent. This is less than the 2.0 per cent recorded between April 2021 and May 2021.

The producer price inflation in the Mining and Quarrying sub-sector decreased by 3.2 percentage points over the May 2021 rate of 12.7 percent to record 9.5 percent in June 2021.
