This positive supply-side shock was followed – starting in 2006 – by a positive global demand shock: fast growth in “Chindia” and other emerging markets started to put pressure on the prices of a variety of commodities. Strong global growth in 2007 marked the beginning of a rise in global inflation, a phenomenon that, with some caveats (the sharp slowdown in the US and some advanced economies), continued into 2008.
这种正向供应冲击之后－从2006年开始－紧接着就是正向的全球需求冲击：“中印”和其他新兴市场经济的快速增长开始给许多的商品价格施加压力。2007年强劲的全球经济增长标志着全球通货膨胀开始加剧，这一现象伴随着一些警示信号（美国和一些发达经济体经济增长急剧放缓），并持续到2008年。
