Etymology: Blend of sag + inflation.
Senses: examples: text: Moody's is not optimistic that this ongoing crisis can be resolved within the existing relationships between lenders and borrowers, and we believe that some form of subsidized solution may evolve. In this situation, a reversal in interest rates and renewed inflation without strong economic growth (a reprise of the sagflation of the 1970s) might well precipitate another crisis, particularly for supranational lending agencies.
ref: 1987, Moody's Bond Survey, volume 79, numbers 14-22, Moody's Investors Service., page 6967:
text: "While the Fed will not yet be forced to raise rates to arrest rising inflation, it will be handcuffed from cutting rates to stimulate growth," he said, in a note to clients. "This precursor stage to stagflation deserves its own name; let's call it ‘sagflation.’"
ref: 2007 April 27, Wanfeng Zhou, MarketWatch, “Dollar hits record low vs. euro”, in MarketWatch, archived from the original on 15 Jan 2024:
text: That three-decade old specter of stagflation is unlikely to return, but a less dramatic version that some analysts have coined "sagflation" or "stagflation-lite" may be around the corner.
ref: 2007 August 9, John Parry, “Global commodities, food inflation may lift U.S. yields”, in Reuters, archived from the original on 05 Apr 2025:
text: While it is true that inflation and interest rate fears allow bears to dominate, long-term investors should not give undue weightage to the problem. Equity investors will have to keep a tab on inflation levels and interest rates only up to a point where we don’t reach stagflation or hyperinflation. A sagflation situation will be a damaging condition for the equity markets. Per se, only inflationary levels should not bother long-term equity investors. In fact, an inflationary situation can be good for several sectors and companies. Banks and financials may see improvement in the margins. Commodity players tend to thrive and make record profits in an inflationary environment.

Senses: examples: text: Other examples of nonhuman self-domestication in the wild exist—for instance, the Zanzibar red colobus monkey diverged from the mainland African red colobus in similar ways during its island isolation—but bonobos are the closest and most relevant to us.

Much as the Russian scientists eliminated the fierce fox pups from the breeding pool, our ancestors killed men who were guilty of repeated acts of violence.
