I’ve posted earlier than on inflation and anchoring.

A priority for central banks is to maintain inflation expectations anchored. In a nutshell:

• The argument is that inflation expectations can develop into self-fulfilling. For instance throughout instances of accelerating inflation – folks see inflation rising so they have a tendency to purchase extra shortly, thus prompting costs to rise quicker. Folks anticipate quicker inflation (i.e. its ‘unanchored’ … rising shortly)
• On the flipside, if inflation is both very low or in deflation (i.e. common falling costs), folks maintain off buying ‘trigger there is no such thing as a rush if costs are falling, and once more the argument is that this behaviour can feed on itself and develop as an issue. Folks anticipate falling costs to fall tougher (‘unanchored’).
