I thought I would just share some stats for everyone's benefit. Can post periodic updates:
There are so many indices that I'm not even tracking e.g. potato, potash, rice, natural gas, etc, yet the above should be alone to tell you the extent of super-inflation the world is witnessing as a collective. I feel sorry for the folks who think somehow blaming present governments the world over is actually assigning meritorious blame. Thankfully, this too will pass inshallah.
