expectations of inflation Explanation: A search for "expectations of inflation" yields 693 hits “The usual reason for raising rates is inflation or expectations of inflation. But prices are still falling in Japan and I do not see them going up any time soon,” comments IDEAglobal’s senior economist Chris Walker. Reference: http://www.intermoney.com/iro.html |

expectations Explanation: Note the difference in the proposed translations: "expectations" refers to the subjective factor, whereas "prospects" refers to the likelihood. They're closely connected of course. For prospects, Spanish might use "perspectivas." |
