    Well Good news.

    Ecolatina, the think tank owned by Lavagna aka Duhalde last years was saying that inflation was at least 35%.

    Now they say its 25% wow has dropped 10% and with an economy expanding at 8% rate.

    Seems slowly, slowly Ecolatina will meet INDEC figures.

    May be after elections?

    inflation indeed is quite high in Chile (for our standards), people are getting nervous about it and about a minor overheating of economy, due to post earthquake reconstruction meassures and resulting spenditures of the state... estimations for inflation have defined and increased to 4,4% in 2011.
    We also have other independent sources who critizise the official figures, but they never ever come near to reach a 2-digit result. 25% Inflation in Chile? maybe under Allende beginning of the 70 and the 82 financial crisis.
