Zimbabwean inflation: 439 %

Since I started my blog in April this year I have , on regular basis, supplied the readers with figures of the Zimbabwean inflation. I have now summarized the development in the graph below. (Remember that I, in order to save space, denote the Zim inflation in % per minute).

Note that the inflation in Zimbabwe is now reaching some 7.3 % per second(!), which is quite comical as some countries' Central Banks are getting stressed from inflation rates of 4-5 % per year...

You are doing it wrong! You can't take a total inflation and divide it into minutes and seconds. If you are saying 439% inflasion per minute. You imply that products become 4,39 times more expensive per minute. or 248 236 073 244 910 000 000 000 000 times in an hour.
