Of course, a rise in prices of food products and daily necessities is not favorable for households, if focusing only on the rise. What is important is that the employment and income situation improves to an extent that households can accept such price rises.
While the economy was strong, measured prices were extremely stable. Another example is 1991, immediately after the bursting of the bubble. Notwithstanding the fact that the economy entered a serious recession, inflation marked a peak. Furthermore, in 1996 while the GDP deflator traced its largest decline of the 1990s, GDP growth recorded its highest figure in the post-bubble period.
