YoY is comparing Jan 2021 to Jan 2022. What’s the reset?



Inflation spiked and is going down. The nature of YoY changes is such that even if prices stayed the same (not inflation, which is inherently 2nd order) inflation will go down. Hence, the reset. If you consider COVID an anomaly, which it is, this is the natural conclusion, which we're now seeing.

in any case, I adjusted the comment to clarify
