Carbohydrates - rice, wheat, bread, pasta, etc. - have risen a lot more than proteins, e.g., fish, meat, etc. Milk and cheese, however, through the roof.
Healthier to get away from so many carbs, eat more veggies, fish and lean meat. Blessing in disguise?
But most other items, except for gasoline, do not seem to have risen precipitously. Some have fallen.
If the trend - manageable inflation coupled with devalued dollar and thus higher exports - continues, US markets will give big upside surprise.

How else to explain market's resiliency?
Market knows everything, do we? |
