Original quoteI don't think it's an exaggeration that inflation will soon be going above 5 percent. And you can be like, oh, Ben, you're saying you're being hyperbolic again. Watch inflation will be above 5 percent. I think clearly by the end of this year, perhaps even higher where things are going right now.
