# How to Track Global Inflation with Claude

Claude provides deep inflation analysis by retrieving CPI data across countries and relating it to central bank targets, interest rate cycles, and currency movements. It calculates real interest rates, identifies persistent versus transitory patterns, and asks follow-up questions to connect the data to your specific investment or planning needs.

## Setup

claude mcp add toolrouter -- npx -y toolrouter-mcp

## Steps

1. Connect ToolRouter: claude mcp add toolrouter -- npx -y toolrouter-mcp
2. Ask Claude: "Get inflation data for the US, UK, and Eurozone using world-economy"
3. Claude retrieves CPI and inflation rate data
4. Ask: "How do current inflation rates compare to 5-year averages?"
5. Analyze the inflation trend and its implications

## Example Prompt

```
Compare inflation rates for the US, UK, EU, Japan, and Brazil over the past 5 years. Which countries have the most persistent inflation?
```

## Tips

- Claude can relate inflation trends to central bank rate decisions
- Ask for real interest rates (nominal rate minus inflation) for each country
- Compare inflation across developed and emerging markets for different patterns
