    RECEIPT #MARK-R

    JAN 01, 2025

    Called it.

    PREDICTION BY

    Mark Ritson
    “'maximiniflation' refers to something he predicts will cause much more consumer anger in 2026.”

    FOLLOW-UP

    Throughout 2024–2026, 'Shrinkflation' (smaller packs at higher effective prices) has been widely reported in media, generating significant consumer and regulatory anger. The practice Ritson defines as 'maximiniflation' is consistent with this. As of mid-2026, there has been sustained, visible consumer anger, with public discourse increasingly focusing on 'stealth price rises.' The direction and timing of the prediction have been broadly borne out. The exact publication date of the article is not given, but since it is a prediction for 2026, a 2025 publication date is assumed.

    “U.S. Inflation Drops Below the Fed’s Target of 2.5%. In a little over a year, inflation has gone from 9% to 3%. Look for this downward momentum to continue.”

    FOLLOW-UP

    Inflation trended lower than 2022 highs but did not decisively drop below 2.5% for the year in the way implied by the headline prediction.
